Summary
AfreecaTV and BisuDagger are pairing up to do a periodic show called "Deep Thought". This show will feature exclusive replays from AfreecaTV tournaments. BisuDagger will seek out some of the best Starcraft minds and they will dive into a deep analysis of the high level decision making in the featured replay.
Who will be featured in the first episode?
Flash vs Soulkey Game 5 of the AfreecaTV Team Battle Grand Finals
When will this happen?
Episode 1 will be casted this Thursday at 16:00 EST.
This is the first time the foreign community has had direct access to Korean Pro game replays. So let's show great community support for this initiative!

Please don't take this the wrong way, but you yourself are not A-, right? Will you be asking questions about the game and the other player answering? If so, can we post some questions we might want answered, for those of us who have already seen the game?
Keep up the good work, looking forward to more BW insight from stronger players

I will be facilitating the discussion as the show host. I will in no way be at the forefront of this discussion. And by all means post questions. We will also be taking questions live from the chat.
So considering the imminent relaunch of BW in HD that could see a number of SC2 players try BW, would this series help a SC2 player understand BW a little more, or will it be too high a level.
Also, I got confused with Google's deep mind that they are currently teaching to play SC2. I expected this would feature SC players versus Googles AI monster.
Good job bisudagger! That game of Soulkey was a whammie to watch! I love how soulkey somehow invaded Flash's three expansions at once... Would like to see another observers view, they were focused elsewhere... should be cool. Once again, good job!
Pretty cool idea overall. If you manage to get to the point where you can get the actual player explaining their reasoning etc... that would be amazing.
Has anyone come up with ap program similar to this like deep blue which would play for you or help you win a game, or beast the best people playing human players earth has to offer?
It appears the date bbcode doesn't adjust for daylight savings. For those confused, the cast is at 16:00 EST. Please refer to the event on the calendar for clarification.

It does work with daylight savings; but you need to use the proper acronym. Summer time is written as EDT, not EST.

The best StarCraft AI programs currently can take a game off a C rank ICCup player, but still lose the majority of the time.
To put that in context, many people who routinely get A on ICCup struggle to get D on Fish. And progamers like Flash get to B and A on Fish.
For a visual representation, the scale looks like this (more or less):
Blind people--First time playing--D on ICCup--The best AI--C on ICCup---------------------------------------------------------------------------The best player
There were a few technical issues in the first five minutes but the vod is up on my channel. Sorry this was poorly timed with the TL upgrade. Future episodes will be even better!

It will not. Try skipping 8 minutes, it may be the actual cast. It was sorted out though. If not, there is a guide to watch through vlc, although im not sure if that works for vods.

Glad you enjoyed it.
PSA: I'm still accepting casting offers for future episodes. As these are AfreecaTV games, we will either have a new one from tomorrow or the next episode will wait until ASL3 has begun.
EPT
atleast everythings faster now...
