Of course all players who has participated will say the year they went was best but for the rest, which year had the best gamers, best games, best finals etc... I would say 2002, with games such as Boxer vs Blackman @ LT, Boxer vs DIDI8 @ LoC and Grrrr vs Elky/Naz (cant really remember) @ LoC -,- and of course our favourite finals with boxer and yellow  (boxer always coming out on top ^^^!)edit: sry mistyped 2001 and 2002 ;O meant 2002! ps. strafe sux. | ||

2004 was very good too with forU vs testie .... which was a great great game in WCG. to me the best, next to Boxer vs Didi8 @2002 and that John Rambo vs the other Terran dude that lasted more than an hour in WCG 2004 too... awesome game .... Nazgul said it was his favorite game ever The best WCG (ironically it ended up as the worst) would have been 2003 though... because Smuft had recently won TLT, and smacked Elky in Liquibition 6-2, rolled over Mondragon in some great PvZ games, and he went on that WSL from WGTour. He was in top form, the best foreigner at the time. He was playing perfect Starcraft and he was in that death group with Elky and Saft, and he would probably been sharp enough to bear Grrr... or Fisheye or ogogog (the eventual top 3). Smuft  | ||

San Francisco sucked. It was fun seeing lots of americans though. But it was nothing like Singapore. Korea had to have been soo fun. | ||

I agree with that though making it 2004 the group with didi froz boxer josez was the greatest thing EVER though. josez went 2-5, but beat boxer and didi. boxer got 2 losses early and was losing BADLY vs didi, if he hadn't won that game AND if josez hadn't beat didi, boxer would have been out then tiebreak, didi gets eliminated (which was also awesome) and boxer goes on to win the entire thing so cool. | ||

Very exciting. Took pictures with Miss Australia and it was lots of fun. Playing soccer with other PC nerds while it was freezing outside (I played with pants and t-shirt... I was young at that time). Very nice closing ceremony and a overall awesome ending ceremony. Most probably the hardest group of death ever (Gundam, Elky, Nazgul, Tomson, FiSheYe, Blast). Very excitable games and an overwhelming Boxer. Very good times. 2002 Daejong Best ending ceremony party (free Budweiser, super good mood, lots of friendly ppl sharing their polish Vodka, peru rum and other stuff, intercultural clash of friendship also a funny disco night and fucked up stuff afterwards. Funny anecdotes and lots of puke. Additionally besides the WCG Tournament was a KTF Mobilephone Progamer tournament with Tossgirl, Yellow, ForU (who used scout instead of corsair at that time), Chojja, Reach, Lovedom and lots more, super impressive. Clash of Titans with Boxer & Yellow.. Oldschool 2003 Seoul Probably best shot for an foreigner to win that tournament. Also most handsome 2nd place finisher ever ! Besides it was a great WCG due to the huge Olympic Park and great games. Nonetheless probably the weakest korean lineup so far(sigh*). Broadcasted finals in national TV. Huge interest of media, extreme support of players and awesome expierence. 2004 San Fransisco City of gays and homelessness guys. Super strong aircondition, I had cold&flu. Worse towards spectators and overall low interest in players compared to Korean WCGs. Players mattered less than before (public relation matters). On the other hand a very good expierence. Very nice parties (Slog4 drunk after a german alc shot.. Falling on the floor in the Hotel's garden, talking mad shit. Drinking with Jason, Rekrul and others. And Crow who was capable to bring weed in a tooth tupe all the way from czech republic to USA with the risk of getting arrest. Just to smoke with his fellows some joints ^^. 2005 Singapore By far the best weather on all WCGs. Nicest people and overall best host city. Worse aircondition ever ( sweating/burning outside; freezing inside ) very well run competition and it almost felt like holidays. I would love to go there again. I recommend that city to everyone. Very nice partying. I went back from the tournament area after I was out and meet up with 40-50 players all drinking having fun (halo, cs, bw, PUERTO RICAN, blackman and many more) CUTE SINGAPOREAN GIRLS ! The day ended and I had to lay down around 24more hours in my bed handling one of the worse hangovers for quite some time (no PUKE!). They also had breakdance competitions and beatboxing. Hell of fun. I felt really sorry I couldn't stay longer. I am sure there are a hundreds of thousands funny details I missed.. Smuft the "diamond" dealer not able to enter Korea,Elky throwing Chairs after elimination, toxic Gatorade, Cafone partymoves... long long list I am very proud beeing party of the WCG history. | ||

Well the opening dialogue was FiSheYe: Good luck Elky: I will win this WCG, no Boxer and ogogo will lose to my Terran FiSheYe: errrr first of all you need to win other games.. Elky: you are no match to me, I win this year. Games start. Korhal photon rush 8min GG. Gorky Island dual Robo speedreaver rush 7min GG. 15min single elimination Elky is out of WCG. Super angry, throwing chairs, almost banned from WCG. FiSheYe couldn't enter any of Elkys games as an observer for the next 6months after WCG. | ||

But it had to be either 2001 or 2004 when that SoL. guy beat all the tosses he played against, but got kicked by terrans & zergs . He beat fisheye too and smuft i think (in groups).Anyway it was a pretty well known player i just can't remember his name. | ||
