Though I didn't find much singnificance with "Monty Hall Antics", I'm sure I saw some better games than that displayed on that godforsaken map. I seem to recall an epic bisu vs nada game, but maybe it didn't really show the mechanics of the map.
Btw, props to our very own Zelniq for making the cut, I remember that thread haha. haha agreed

Who the fuck did they get to write this? This is hideously embarrassing writing.
Then, from seemingly no where, Nada clones all of his giant Battlecruiser fleet and Yamtos every Battlecruiser that Dongrae has. This inhuman feet of control resulted in Nada winning a decisive fight with a 12 Battlecruisers to spare, securing the win. Yeah, NaDa's toes really secured that win against Dongrae.
And why is Pokju's being proxied "unpimpest"? How is that at all a reflection on his play? Does reacting suboptimally to a brilliant, innovative proxy by the best player in the world qualify for Unpimpest along with trapping your own units when proxying?

chalrenge's gayass base camping doesnt deserve any mention at all, all he did was camp in one base when rock had the whole map. nothing difficult at all in storming and stasis everything you see. and yes i realize that the game was an ace game but still if rock had any respect for himself or rock he should have just gg'ed and left.
anywhere chalrenge is nowhere now so whatever.
casys fake expo definitely deserved first place.

Ohhh... Parts of this made me cringe...
StarCraft changed a lot during 2007. Yeah, and it's changed even more since then!
I mean... It's good they got it out, but this shouldn't have taken 2 years. One guy could have done that page in a night once they had the submissions whittled down and decided (it's not like the plays are really in a devastatingly calculated order).
I'm pretty disappointed. Really not up to the caliber of previous PPs. I mean... At least some of the plays were really good and awesome, but the writing actually made it harder to enjoy because it sounded like the person who wrote it wasn't excited. Unless they're gonna pull themselves together, I don't want to see PP08.

The article was much better than the movie.

That Pokkju game still makes me laugh.
|
Is there a place to download the past PPs? I can't find a link in their articles.
|
Omg the one where Bisu owned his opponent by building gates in front of his eyes was so epic :p
|
personally i think only Casy's fake FE, Boxer's fake base, and Iris's mine hide were the only actual "pimp" plays

Sclegacy.com produces them and they're under the features section.

To be honest, a lot of TL's articles make me react in basically the same way. They're frequently full of bad English, stupid metaphors, and mistakes that would be caught by any decent editor. I don't comment or complain because it really doesn't seem right--these guys are writing articles in their spare time and for free. But if we're going to start picking apart articles like this, we might as well start picking apart all the front page articles here on TL as well.

man, casy really deserves that pimpest play, that is just awesome

Hm.
Well, finally another PP. That's great and all; it's only been a couple of decades in the making. I appreciate the effort, and I know I shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth...
...but for the next PP, can the YouTube videos not look like ass, and can we get a writer that can spell words?

Yes, I'm so glad most of you found something to bash. I definitely can see all of you that volunteered the 5x billion times that we asked for help have many good things to say. *rolls eyes* It's so great to do something for the community. I can definitely tell that some of the elitism blackballing reputation that TL has is deserved. PP08 will be out and it will be better. We're always trying to improve and constructive criticism is always welcome - bashing not so much.
That being said if anyone is genuinely interested in helping out with PP08 please contact me. We could always use the help of some knowledgable community members.

Wow, dude, you sound upset. If you're "doing something for the community" then you should do it effortlessly without any expectation of reward. When you do something you love you expect nothing in return.
This is what makes TL different. The contributors. We thank them, sometimes, but most of the time they do it coz they love sc and they largelly go unnoticed. So, take a chill pill. This site is the reason you were able to compile something in the first place. Not to mention that it's the site that'll give you the most views. Why would u come here and bash people for bashing you???? I don't understand.
EDIT: With regards to blackballing and elitism. Well, I think TL has been pretty adamant about rooting out bad posters and people who are unjustly opinionated. Hence, I think there is something to feel elitist about. On average, this is probably one of the better forums out there.. so, again, chill.
