I will put together a special show match schedule for this Friday and Saturday in case anyone is around to watch it. Maybe show matches like:
OctZerg vs Tim SnOw vs two E rank players Cryoc vs Madinho Dragon vs Terroru Stryker vs Voddy 7-8 person FFA Khala vs Yoon Khala vs two E rankers Terroru vs Voddy Dewalt vs Khala Infested terran showmatches etc.
This year has been awful everywhere around the world. But we have all tried to make the most out of it given our shared and unique circumstances. Together we have sought refuge from the world's troubles by immersing ourselves in this old game called Brood War. We have tried our best to overcome all of the physical barriers in the way of our social nature by connecting with each other through wonderful communities online established and maintained by human beings who remain hopeful, passionate and giving. We should all be grateful and thank each other for sparking a little more magic in our lives in the midst of darkness. Our stream schedule this week is dedicated to all the lives who have been touched by this silly old game and its small albeit lovely community oriented members during the pandemic. We have shared many small yet meaningful moments together, filled with laughter, entertainment, joy and even frustration. Here's to everyone and to a better future for humanity and the environment

Here's our schedule for this week everyone Our casting sessions have always been open to the public since day one so join us! I share my screen in the open casting channel of our discord during our live stream events, and everyone is welcome to hop in and co-cast with me! Your "casting" can be serious and knowledgeable, or you can keep things light hearted and have fun! The whole point of open casting is to create a community oriented inclusive experience, and not recreate professional casting sessions!
