I am really sad about this as I practiced a lot in the week to do some great games, and I will most likely not play any brood war in the following time.
It is needless to say i'd love an oportunity to play my games on any other time, but I assume rules cannot allow that. Please read a PM to you on iccup.com. Rocky also did not show up and I scheduled your match for today at 21CET. I forgot to PM you here since it was late and I was PMing 6 people. Edit: Rocky has e-mailed me back and forth and will 100% be there.
nvm

Just saying. I don't know, "bad" games can be entertaining too, at least I enjoyed them. If Sayle feels like he's up to those iron mang casting marathons, he helps a lot to keep it entertaining too.
The Fantasy GG timing did get annoying sometimes, though.

I'm using my 300th post to say that the 12-hour cast of Sayle was very very mang-ly. I don't even know how he did it... when I asked him, he said he was magical, which I believe.

Just saying.
I don't think you'll find even 1% of people will support your opinion here. This is a foreigner starleague, and if the game play and level bothers you, please stop watching it.

So after both GoTuNk (internet crashed) and Rocky(dunno why) didn't show up, Game rescheduled our game for Monday 21 CET. He sent a PM to both of us at iccup slightly after Sunday 21 CET, and unfortunately only posted about it later here at TL, both messages which I didn't catch and therefore didn't show up.
Therefore I'm making a public request to Rocky to reschedule our games to be played at whatever time he feels like, starting from now. I believe no one wants to win by W.O, and as I accepted a rescheduled of one of my opponentes during ISL1 I hope Rocky will be up to it aswell.
Nevertheless, to spice things up and provide stronger incentives, I am willing to offer a 50 USD donation to the ISL2 Prize pool (Paypal or pokerstars) and 15 USD (Paypal or pokerstars) to Rocky in case I lose a legit bo3 (no W.O.)
Hopefully you can see this mesage and reply here or trough a PM; if any of Rocky's friends sees this let him know.
Edit: Wrong information out, everything else is correct?

I wasn't expecting TSL (which was also a foreigner starleague) level games. I wasn't even complaining about how half the players in the RO96 or whatever were C level. I was just saying that casting should start in the RO32, where things get a little more serious. I honestly see no gain in having the earlier stages casted, unless of course everyone prefers sheer quantity over decent quality. And I'm not saying some of the games in the RO64 weren't good, but it would have been better to cast just a selection of games. I doubt even the most diehard fans (1%ers) watched the whole 16 or 18 hour worth of RO64 games. And by not watching the whole thing, there's a high chance of missing the, 3 or 4 series which were actually worth watching.
P.S. Hang in there K.C., you've got this.

Contradictory first statement. Asking for biased casting based on limiting exposure of players and not casting players who not only have fans, but had their friends watching. Our views were constant.

Is it sad to say that I had the stream running just about the whole length of the cast? I think I missed an hour or two though :-/(roomate pulled me away from the stream) ^ though I did finish watching it that very same night. lawl
