don't know about terran, (T)IdrA

I don't know why you guys wouldn't vote for han; did you guys see his games vs Rock and Jaedong?

Also, is Violet a rookie? I noticed him when he vs Light in Plasma.
Stuck.

Zero's played in Proleague since 2007, Effort's first PL game was in June of 2008. How exactly is he not a rookie?

I consider someone a rookie when;

1) They have not played a game in the year previous before it (2007)
2) They have not made the major leagues (Ro16 for OSL or Ro32 for MSL)

So ZerO, not a rookie.
EffOrt, technically yes I guess.

Pachi ruled that he wasnt a rookie, pachi knows his shit hence no effort in the poll

Fixed ;s

Technically the MSL hasn't started yet so he is technically classed as a rookie.
