So today a friend mentioned to me that there has been a tv show (total of 40+ min) in my country about a host traveling to South-Korea and giving you a small view on social awkwardness and taboo around dating amongst Koreans. South-Korea is one of the most technology advanced countries in the world, but relationship wise remains very stiff. Traditionally, in South-Korea, your parents will decide/arrange who you marry to. This is changing to more western standards, but ever so slowly. At the start of the show a Korean sociologist mentions he expects - with adolescents/young adults now being more on their own and not getting traditional help from their parents as much - by 2030 1/3 of all young adults will be single.

It is not a high quality show by all means, but I did like to get to see more about the Korean culture. So far most my knowledge on Korean culture comes from reading on TL for years, which obviously is very centred around gaming. I'm expecting it's similar for many of you, so I'm wondering if you'd be interested to see the show if I were to translate it. (I might need some help production wise, but translating alone should be cake.)

TL;DR: a show about what a struggle it is for your average Korean to find a date.

Just saw a "ToT)Selector" id on the Fish ladder. Can anyone confirm if this is the real Selector? Would be funny if he got caught hacking on Fish.

For those who often watch Afreeca streams or play on Fish, have folks noticed Fish opponents (particularly D-rank and above) recently being quite a bit better? I don't know it there are lots of ex-progamers coming back, or just amateurs improving, but it seems the pros are facing lots of really solid players.

It used to be that the top ~20 player on the Elo can play any ladderer (non-progamer) and win 75-90% of the time, but it just seems this is not quite the case any more? I see top names losing so often these days that it's startling. Great for BW in general, but maybe it's some bias from watching certain recent matches

1)smurfing
2)old semipros/pros occasionally coming back after a hiatus with more time to play
eg. rush, zelot (this guy already mass cheese 900+ games THIS season LOL)

korean pros still win the majority of the time, thats why they are at the top of the ladder
there are a lot of promising amateurs but they need to undergo the old kespa regiment style of training if they ever want to match or surpass level of the old pros..

Hi Everyone,

Long-time TL forum lurker coming up with a silly question.

Does anyone have an idea what EffOrt's + Show Spoiler +
victory celebration
music is? It came up in a few FPVODs, but it plays in full in an EffOrt vs PianO Bo3 series:



It seems to be a Korean remix of Eiffel 65 - Blue, but I could not find it based on the (seemingly) English lyrics sections. A friend who studies in Korea made out that one performer is called DOZ, but we could not find anything along those lines, either.

I love this celebration of his! I am also glad he finally plays more 1v1s again, even hitting S on fish.

FREAKING iTUNES!!!
Does anyone else get this? I'm playing a bw game with iTunes in the background, and then it bleed through like a skype message and if you accidently click on it, you get alt-tabbed from your game. But if you don't it continues hovering in the middle of your screen as you are trying fight a battle. Never happened with previous version of iTunes, but I get so mad when I get kicked out of the game like that.

Just hop into iTunes and navigate to Preferences > General. In the Notifications section, uncheck the "When song changes" box and bob's your uncle. Those iTunes updates will stop popping up and you can get on with your work.

I don't use Itunes, but this may be the solution? I just did a quick google search.

iTunes 11 and earlier it was never an issue. I'd hate to switch, but what do you use? I just played a game with it minimized and it didn't seem to do the same thing.

edit.
Didn't see the quoted part initially...

double edit.
Hm. It seems that the ability to change notifications is gone or at least it certainly where all the screen shots say it should be and I cannot find it anywhere else.

What we need is a video mix of let's say the two/three last SSLs with the best, and most intense fights, the ceremony, the crowd and so on. One video like that would be incredible.

Obviously I'm not able to do it. But some guys here are great video makers.

which post Kespa Starleagues Winners do you guys, in the recent light of Ongamenet Starleagues consider to be "proper" Starleague Chmapions? None at all, all Winners of the SSL's or just from certain SSL's onwards (as player pool and level of play have improved continuously)

It's a hard pick, but i personally would name the (Wiki)SSL 8 as the first post-kespa Starleague, that i fully acknowledge as such, given the level of play and the participants like Ssak, Hero and Sea, who premiered here. The (Wiki)SSL 9 is in my opinion,in without a doubt given that three additional Starleague Champions of old played it; Bisu Mind and Jangbi.

Let me know what you think, im quite interested in this atm.

I'd say SSL8. Its sort of diminished because of Killer's subsequent lack of practice and decline, but the competition at the top was very high, probably the same as SSL9 sans Bisu.
