They'll hire a hitman and + Show Spoiler + slice off your hands, so you can never play StarCraft again! ![]() lol if Jinro beats the WC3 icon and Brood War icon that would be so awesome for the teamliquid website. | ||

What's the matter with maps? Come on! Do you think it would be better if the map pool was Delta Quadrant, Jungle Basin, Steppes of War? | ||

It is in the best interest of GOM and SC2 for Boxer to go far and even win. Zergbong winning was nice and all, but if GOM really wants SC2 to become the main e-sport, a figure such as Boxer or NaDa has to win it. This is pretty absurd, basing SC2's success on two players? Boxer himself would not like that at all. If you were a player in the GSL wouldn't you want a fair competition? Blind fanboyism is fine, but really, it's kinda selfish to want the tournament rigged so your favourite player can advance. Like I said before, it may not seem much, but a jump from Ro32 to Ro16 is a pretty significant increase in prize winnings. Screwing people out of $1000 is never fine by any standards. Especially to all the newcomers who make up a large portion of the tournament participants. Everyone wants Boxer to do well, but even the Emperor himself would like to win through fair means. Anyone who thinks rigging is necessary to further develop e-sports, needs to reconsider their stance of supporting e-sports. Take away the fairness of competition, and everything goes downhill from there. PS - HI JAYCEE don't see you posting often here Edit: Also <3 to Metalwing for quoting my post ^^ | ||
