Ok, hi guys! Here is the deal, I am currently in Korea for the next 2 weeks as I'll be returning back home to NYC in 2 weeks. Before that, I promised myself that I will definitely not miss a chance to attend an actual Starcraft Proleague game and I decided to keep that promise by attending this Saturday! That's right, I'm going to the game of CJ vs OZ which is going to be epic!
Now, what exactly is this thread for? Well here's the thing, as I've seen in Live matches, fans (mostly fan girls) hold up signs with random korean written to be shown in front of the TV screen. Well seeing how I lack Korean language to this date still (give me few years dammit), I have decided to WRITE SOMETHING IN ENGLISH!!!! So far, I have a mind of something like "I came to all the way from NYC to watch Savior play" or something.... what I would like is suggestions or comments regarding that...
Also for people in Korea, I was thinking to possibly hit me up or join me to this event this Saturday at 1 PM in OGN studio in which I will (currently 95% possibility chance) be going to this event! Afterall, I got 2 weeks before I return so....... DON'T LEAVE ME STANDARD ALL ALONE!!!!!
I encourage any forms of comments, feedback, suggestions, flaming (to some extent) and etc regarding my decision to go to this event for THIS IS A ONCE OF A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY for me... (since I'm seriously not considering to come back to Korea... at least not for few decades...)
That is all....
*edit* A Poll.... after some requests.... lol
Poll: Will QuickStriker be lost on his way to PL Match?
(Vote): Of course! It's bound to happen!!!
(Vote): Of course.....NOT!!!! It's easy for a fellow NYer to find his way in Korea
(Vote): Blah... another pointless poll....

wowow man nice, thats like my dream lol
|
Thats awesome man have a great time =)
|
how about a shoutout for teamliquid 
|
What's funny is, I've been in Korea for the past 6 months doing this program and failed to even attend one Proleague match.... and now that I'm leaving in 2 weeks, I realized my time is short and gotta do this sooner or never... so yea...
But thanks guys! It's also sort of like my semi-minor-dream for me too!!!
As for a shoutout for TL... hmm... need MOAR suggestions regarding that..

oh I will... oh I will... my main mission and goal of this will be to meet SAVIOR!!!! Have a picture, a handshake and maybe something more... hahaha.... would be more epic if it was SKT-T1 vs CJ so I can drag BoxeR too but Savior is definitely enough for me... hahaha...

Just draw a funny picture and write something in English, it'll get shown.

Actually Nevergg is coming to this event! (I think..) Hoping to meet her at the event!!! But yea, it'll definitely be memorable event for me...
Thanks LosingID8 for Korean comments.... I can read and write (a little) but those suggestions are better than I thought... However, I was thinking if I write in English, those commentators will be more curious and will be THAT MUCH MORE EPIC seeing how all the writeouts are all Korean and barely in English...

How about a shoutout for TL and Tasteless/Super Dan Man?
The cameras will definitely see it. Plus you'll be one of the few white guys there.

Well... the thing is, I'm actually a Korean though... so even if I like to be seen as a white, I can't since I'm actually a Korean... (but basically an American) so yea...

maybe you can let them know you're a foreigner, isn't that what lilsusie did when she did a teamliquid shoutout once?

oh... i thought you were white... lol. i figured that a white guy holding up a sign in korean = instant camera time.

Violently shake your sign for attention. I would love to see this! Oh and not too violent, you want them to be able to read it.

I think definitely shouting out to a player is the right thing to do... to say something like, "I came all the way from New York City to watch Savior [either his tag or his Korean name] play"
But hey, feel free to put anything... even "living life to life of lively thanks to shield battery" or some other TL inside joke would be pretty fucking hilarious.
|
Best of luck to you on getting camera time =)
I can't come up with any ideas good atm, but if I think of one I'll let you know.

Need a sign that says "SaviOr = DESTROYER"

god damn dude youre so fucking lucky.
TAKE A PICTURE OF YOU HUGGING SAVIOR. <3
|
Aw man if you were a whiteboy you'd be on TV easy. You might still stand out enough with an english sign though to make it. We'll be watching for you.... Make sure to write something about TL!

Shit i wan't to go to korea XD

haha, that'll be cool! maybe a good TL inside joke that all TLers can recongize would be really nice.... but yea, I don't think shouting aloud is a right thing... I might get booted off by security before I even get shown on TV...
I'm still thinking in process, I have a few days but... I'm thinking several possibilities of what my sign is ultimately going to be but I'm also considering this one... SAVIOR VS JAEDONG!!!!!!!!!!!

Hahaha of course I'm going - weekend proleague is like my religion. If it's the regular camera crew then I can probably get them to notice his sign whatever it is - the fangirls have been particularly *lame* with their signs recently so the chances of an english language sign being shown are very high.

I already shot Savior with a sign saying that - it was funny because totally understood what it said and was pretty amused/pleased to see the foreign fans taking his message to heart.

You'll get a good laugh out of everybody ...or shot, not sure. Whatever!

3) Write TL on a sign
Oh Snap! Get that picture of Chill and Savior doing the thumbs down (was it Savior), print that shit out and write something like "Oz sucks"
Or something milder that won't get you in trouble.

That sounds awesome for you, have fun.

Not to be racist, but you are Caucasian right? White people stand out more in the crowd.
edit: nvm. read that you are Korean American. Hopefully they will still give you some airtime.
|
Just make sure whatever you write, you have a big TEAMLIQUID on the sign somewhere. That way the commentators will be sure to notice if you get on TV.
|
the commentators know about teamliquid.net?
|
I came all the way from New York and all I got was this sign
|
Damnit, I would totally come and join you guys but I work until 4pm this saturday,
if you guys are interested in hanging out after the show though that could be fun, soju it up : D
Edit: Shame I can't come : ( I'm AAAAALWAYS filmed when I go to live SC matches

Get your tl shirt on as a undershirt and when the camera flash's on you lift up your shirt then hold a sign saying
"Yum bosung WHEN?"

as long as you TL shoutout do whatever you want

That's exactly what I was thinking.
Is the game broadcasted via OGN or MBC?
Just print the adrenaline upgrade with a color printer and hold it up with some stuff others have suggested.
I think the sign Losing|D8 would get the most attention and when you're on camera raise the "main placard" - that would be the best way.

If you are a korean i suqqest you write in the sign something like
"I CAME FROM USA TO WATCH 마제욘(not sure if i misspelled it XD)" :D

Very nice! It seems we're going to get a mini-TL group soon to be set up this Saturday! That'll be funny, having a bunch of TLers together with possibly like a sign for each person like a letter or something like "T - L - > - y - o - u" or something! lol!
@ilikestarcraft: don't worry, I'm just a probe ^_^
@elric: check your PM!!!!
@mrhoon: definitely cool if you are going to come!
@ShloobeR: that'll be cool though I might need to limit my sojuness BIG TIME considering I have a dinner appointment with people.....
|
definitely don't mention tl.net...i think it's pretty boring und lame. you don't see koreans with a ygosu.com sign etc
write something in simple english that everyone there can understand.

Oh lord -_-;;;;;;; I'm kind of glad I will be sitting somewhere else. I only do Backho signs. ONLY BACKHO. Please behave yourselves at the fan meeting! No stealing MJY - he's got a lot of fans and you'd get your asses kicked.

Just write whatever sign and Neggy and I (if i go) can just bring the camera guys over to you. Simple.

put QuickStriker on the sign so we know it's you
congratz on being able to see a pro match and especially get to see SAVIOR play.. i plan on doing this one day.. it will be a while so hopefully sc2 is as popular as sc in korea by the time i can actually go.

@NeverGG: Haha, don't worry, we'll behave... but my target on that day is definitely MJY... so yea... it's going to be some competition but I'm sure we'll manage through to have a chance to meet with him... (hopefully... one chance also...)

Hmm... yea, maybe I should put my initial or something on the sign!
But yea, it's not 100% that Savior will come out and play but that's something I gotta put on the sign TO MAKE SURE HE COMES OUT!! haha... but yea, thanks! This is something I'm definitely looking forward to now! Watching a real live PL game, possibly meeting a progamer (Savior..... *drools*), meet up with couple of TLers, and etc!!! Can't wait for this to happen!^_^
*edit* I just realized that this Saturday is valentine's day.... hmm... that gives me more ideas.... anyway... I'll be around later on, but for now....(currently at a cafe in a place called 63 FLOOR BUILDING where THERE'S ONLY 60 FLOORS!!!! what a bunch of LIES!)

You don't even speak Korean, right? So why do you always type random things in Korean and correct/make fun of minor things that other people who also don't speak Korean mess up?

At least you got TV time =P

Nice signs. A bunch of people here must be envious.
|
|
|
Lol its a damn big pity that Savior didn't play..
|
We were all joking about elric's sign how after all the fan girls were going to kill him haha
I was hoping for cj to win but wanted Jaedong vs savior
Nice meeting Elric, quickstriker, nevergg and artosis
|
|
|
Man, that was one sure of a great game!!! It was definitely a time worth spending to go there live and experience REAL LIVE PROLEAGUE STARCRAFT yourself!!! But yea... sAviOr didn't play... =(
HOWEVER, after the match, I was able to actually bypass the fangirls (somewhat) and MEET MA JAE YOON HIMSELF!!!!! So happy I saw him and talked to him one and one in front of the fan girls!!!! I used partially korean and english to him and tried to make him speak English and all!! Got lots of pictures of MJY up close including me and him with my sign!!! I'll definitely update and post those pictures when I get my USB stuff to link with my camera! (which I'm not sure when that'll be...)
But yea, THANKS EVERYONE for the support, A BIG THANKS for Elric, Ilikestarcraft, neverGG and artosis for meeting up and chilling with me, but most of all, I'll have to thank Ma Jae Yoon as well for meeting up, have a brief pep talk, and also trying to speak english to me when I asked him too!!! ^_^
|
so you really went there to see savior win...
and some air time too 
|
|
|
Haha, yep, I definitely gotta give big thanks to you and artosis for that part!!! I was wondering how to bypass all thru those LOADS of fan girls to meet Savior! But yea, I hope I have time to able to make for SKT1 game... hopefully I can though I have less than 2 weeks now before I depart... hmm... if I do, I'll make another crazy thread again.. hahaha....
|
Very cool! It must have been awesome to meet MJY in person.
