-One day, in a fit of anger, Pusan called Sky "that fuckin' mole!!!". The resemblance is striking, and the similarity cannot be unseen .. -Eagle once said that Cola looked like a fish .. not as strong of a comparison. -Koala looks like .. well his ID is that of an animal. Koala had apparently used Starcue's stream to stream his Ro32 games. -Ample is .. breaking the theme of animal comparisons here -0- well he kinda looks like a bird in this one picture but I can't seem to find it.
-D is for the Death. IMO, this is the "Group of Death".
And hey this might be shooting arrows into the darkness but what are the chances of integrating this league into Liquidbet, kinda missing those momentarily.

That sounds like it'd be really cool, along with all the other foreign tournaments. Someone should get on that
also BLinD-RawR, 3:30??? its 19:00 KST lol so it cant be x:30 ... O_o well you won't miss the TvTs thats for sure lol
Sky Cola gogogogo!!!... This is so refreshing. There are so many terrans (compared to foreign/chinese scenes) in this tournament that I can actually cheer for a protoss and a zerg for once.

???????? he lost like 3 bases out of 6+most of his infrastructure, game is pretty over at that point usually lol
sky not proxying again?!
Still, he was on equal bases and could have turned it around. But I guess he wanted to high five the girl again ^^
being on equal bases in PvT is bad lol, especially later game. That's one of the dynamics of PvT.
proxy robo by sky .. knew there was gonna be a proxy SOMETHING at some point
Not necessarily, when terran is about to mine out while P has three almost fresh bases, I've seen way too many games when protoss lost it's main and then won anyway to call that game over. But I get the feeling that Sky isn't all that comfortable playing catch up, he just wants to proxy : )
welp only way to be sure is to look over the VOD, but judging from the flow of the game in my perspective, there was almost no chance of Sky making that comeback lol
Sky with the Zealot ramp block, gonna do soemthing weird .. again

He might be okay as long as he keeps Terran's army at bay. He is still one base ahead.

well that was a pretty sick marine spread by koala lol
Yeah, but it wasn't a good trade for Cola, no matter which way you slice it. Koala isn't even going to try and defend his base vs mutas, now that his push is repelled again... doesn't look too bright for him. WTF Cola losing so much mutas.
im pretty sure sonic himself crashed because for a little bit I didn't see sogoodtt show up on the afreeca search and the channels now are like 14/600 instead of being ~470/600 each.
still, it says there are 2 of the sogoodtt channels full though

think it was an afreeca-wide problem. Sonic just confirmed it

How's the viewership count for today anyways?
I know that it was 10k+ during the peak of sky vs cola .. but I couldnt accurately guage the last game because of the afreeca-wide crash. And now that I'm in a relay room instead of the main room, I don't have access to all the stats bleh .. lol

pre-afreeca hiccup I think there were ~2 full channels (600 each) and 6 channels that were probably about 460/600 each (varied from 400/600 to 500/600) that I could see. *edit* right now there are 10 channels listed for sogoodtt so I assume precrash those channels were all close to full, otherwise I don't think afreeca makes the relaying channels.
so about 4k from what I could see. Also, kt.mgw.zergman (jun10280) was restreaming it and had 2 full channels, but I don't know if those were unique viewers or if people had multiple afreeca channels open or something or using picture in picture, but that would be another 1k.

your figure doesn't include the mobile streams viewer count lol. There was about 5k+ PC viewers, 5k+ mobile viewers
I'm just rambling here. But does anyone feel that Sonic should get some sort of commercial deals during the break? Like a company can pay 500 dollars to advertise their product in the stream. I think that this will further suck in more viewers because of the professionalism. I kinda want to see if SSL can turn out to be the next OGN.

Sonic used to plug in his sponsors during breaks, or at the beginning of games back in the Ro32 online portion. Not so much right now, because they're still really emphasizing the live camera aspect.
We'll see what happens in the future. Everything is still a WIP
Drones don't give a fuck about the raging fight going on right next to them, they still continue to fulfill their duty towards the overmind and try to meet the resource production quota for the next five minutes in four!
But however I do believe that Ultra switch was the bane to the Zerg. Ultralisks are good at sealing the win but not so vs mechs. Also should have send the hydralisk to attack the top left corner base instead of the natural because Tanks got in just in time to defend whereas it would take couple more seconds to arrive at that base.
well the problem was letting Terran expand so much to begin with .. but it if it weren't for that mistake we wouldnt have gotten that super epic game. I think that was pretty much an unwinnable scenario for Cola, and he did an amazing job given his circumstance
Been watching on and off between breaks at work, got home not too long ago, sounds like that last game went really really epicly. Ohh Guardian Devourer

I can't seem to decide whether or not Cola vs Ample Game 2 or Pusan vs Icarus Game 3 was the best game of the Ro16 lol ...
Game 3: I think Ample was a little behind after his failed bunker rush, but that wasn't too bad since cola made a lot of lings that didn't do anything thanks to sim city. The mutas did so much damage, so Cola played so cautiously against everything, Ample really never had a chance.
Lol jesus those ro8 brackets are perfect LOL pman and larva dont like each other.. pusan didnt want to play a zerg killer and mong is guaranteed to be an EPIC match and hiya vs sky OZ DUEL!!

according to the main thread: So right now there's no more SSL until next saturday. From now on there's only SSL on saturdays. Every saturday are only played 2 matches. Finals are the 17 of November, including the 3rd and 4th placement matches.
SOSPA ProLeague to follow after..
+ all of the above is as always subject to change as Sonic might adjust it to his schedule etc. We're lucky to have Arvick & co. to update the info. Once someone puts it on the calendar you know it's going to happen 99%, so keep an eye on that I guess.
