Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this site created by a group of friends who enjoyed playing Starcraft? It's a Starcraft site first, progaming second. Sorry if I hurt your feelings.

This list reminds me of Napoleon Dynamite

You know, like nunchuku skills, bow hunting skills, computer hacking skills... Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills.

I voted fuck yourself before I even read the blog. Had nothing to do with you personally. I just rather enjoyed that as the option.
P.S- I do love you.

Any one of the above would be great. This exactly, these are the interesting ones IMO. Not that I plan to smoke weed while working out and procrastinating or anything...

Why work out at home, when you can be more efficient with your time at a gym.
The argument "it's free" doesn't hold up for the same reason why good clothing is considered an investment. Maximum potential cannot be achieved at home.

Some people don't have the time to go out to a gym? I would have to drive 20 minutes each way to get to a gym.

There are more people saying they don't care than the top 3 other options, I don't think I'm being an emo martyr but more of a realist.
but if there are like a hundred people who would like to read a guide who cares if there are 200 or 200000 who dont care?

i rarely watch progaming. there's more to this site.

Yeah, but if you're complaining about people making progaming threads, you've got a problem. You'd be better off getting a SomethingAwful account or something if that's the case.
I dunno. I just think a random blog about his life would be a piss off of a 10,000th post. I don't mind them in general, I just don't think it's giving much back to the community. A guide on how to sell weed/snowboarding/procrastinating/women just makes me think of Totse... Like... let's think about his audience.. IN GENERAL most TLers go to TL because they like StarCraft and especially progaming. So it makes a lot more sense if you're 'giving back' to do that. If he's not trying to give back than he shouldn't even ask and should just do whatever he feels like.

I disagree, well thought out posts are always a pleasure to read. So, from that stand point, it is giving back.
|
Procrastination. I need to know how to put my research papers off even longer without suffering repercussions. (Currently I start the night before they're due).
|
i was mostly for the weed guide, but actually i do it pretty good myself, both, selling and smoking. And i also growth sometimes.
I would like a revisit to the trolling guide, but, you didnt put it in the poll.
So, i ask for the soccer guide.

If he's not trying to give back than he shouldn't even ask and should just do whatever he feels like. I don't have a problem with progaming threads, it's just a problem when everything I see is turned into a progaming thread. Fana suggested some pretty cool topics, and you suggested him making a blog comparing what successful progamers have in common to what unsuccessful ones don't...because you know, the GENERAL TLer could really relate! It's a boring and overdone topic, imo. I think there is enough progamer coverage on these forums already that we don't need another analytical blog about why Saviour used to be the best and why he's not anymore. As someone else already stated, if the blog is interested and well written, it will be worth the read, and something given back regardless. Plus, I like getting to know more about people on these forums as opposed to some random Koreans half way across the world. Yeah they're good, so what?
Also, I think IN GENERAL most TLers come to TL because they like Starcraft and the sense of a community. There are probably those lurkers who stop by to check out who qualified for the OSL or whatever because of TL's quality, but I really wouldn't consider them true TLers. Just by looking at the sidebar to the left you can see that the majority of the subforums are centered around the community and/or StarCraft.
Personally, I don't care which progamer wins the next big tournament. I'd rather know which top foreigner wins something because those are people who actually contribute to our community and who I can relate to the most because they give us some perspective into their lives. They are posters like me and you. It would probably be amazing to chill out with Incontrol...it would probably be really awkward to hang out with Jaedong. And to me, the really awesome threads are the ones like the cake contest for SC2 beta keys. That really brings the community together and gives me the sense that we're all here because we love StarCraft, not because we like watching other people who are good at StarCraft.
