Seriously.
Dude, they told me I was going less than 5 days ago. How on earth am I supposed to know the maps and be prepared? I don't recall whining, I just stated that the hate is justified -- I've been inactive for quite a bit now.
Besides, the guys I would have mentioned to Blizzard already turned it down.
Edit: Geoff is crazy.

Ok alex. I'm crazy. Does that make sense to you?

Ungrateful?
I'm super grateful.
There is only one chance for me to win in such a situation.
Normally I play for the long drawn out skill-game.
In this situation, that just can't happen.

Ok, imo im glad to see a new face invited to this epic event although I may not have had Skew as my first choice, I really don't think that I would be any more disapointed in seeing someone else being givin the chance to step up to the plate to face off against some of the best the world has to offer. Granted there could have been an assortment of "better" choices from an array of other countrys ( I mean come on any first rate Polish, Russian or Chinese would have been an obviously better choice than a 2nd rate usa terran ) but all in all I can appreciate the fact that Skew had stepped up to the plate and accepted the challenge. I personally am disapointed if there had been no other invitations other than the ones previously mentioned but none the less I personally being a foreign player will always support any of my fellow brothers attempting to take down the best in Seoul!
As a Side point and always a fellow Canadian I am honestly disapointed in the fact that Testie although one of my personal favourite players takes his spot as if just because he was "invited" ( although not being an active representative of the foreign community ) and in such takes away a potentional "spotlight" chance from another talented person that may have had a chance to make an impression of the South Korean enviroment. Honestly as a Canadian, and although you are extremly talented, Why not provide the oppertunity to get noticed and possibly have an offer at something great when you dont even take the time to take this seriously, even more so if it is your second time around....
I personally would have liked not only more than 2 foreigners, but Testie, knowing they took your opinion into consideration, have you offer not only your own spot up to someone you feel qualyfied but also to advocate ( no pun intended ) for more foreigner spots to be allocated.
Im disapointed in this years Blizzcon for this fact and im glad I never purchased a ticket.

you're glad you're not going because the two foreigners they invited weren't who you considered to be "top"?
the main attraction for TL in this year's blizzcon is SC2, then probably seeing Korean progamers live
nobody really cares which foreigners they get to see play

lx phoenix or super would be nice -_-
actually that would be a pretty good idea, imho. i've seen a lot from lx and pj, but i'm pretty curious about how good 66 and super are, compared to the pros.

I would have liked to see four foreigner's because Blizzcon is a community event. On the other hand, more koreans is better for the tournament.
Predictions: Yellow will win it all. Trust me!

It's double-elim, you idiots. Stop making single-elim predictions.
