"I hear the train a comin'
It's rollin' 'round the bend,
And I ain't seen the sunshine,
Since, I don't know when,
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison,"

From the song EG.lectR PM'ed people about (folsom prison blues, johnny cash)

Train comin' Train train train... can be short for TrainING. As in Training house. But they already announced that. Hmm...

It's rollin' 'round the bend? As in the training house is mobile? A trailer training house?

And I ain't seen the sunshine? Now what country is known for bad weather... Britain.

A Trailer Training house in Britain. That can't be all. Perhaps it is in reference to the name of the artist... Johnny Cash, are they acquiring more MONEH?

And what about Folsom? Folsom has nothing to do with britain has it? Well, if we translate the original lyric to korean then back to english, we get:

"I hear my train coming to a '
Leave it 'bend in one week
And you can not see the sun,
Since then, I do not know when
I'm stuck in Folsom Prison"

I leave my train coming to a... to a what, EG? What are you trying to tell us?!

Leave it 'bend in one week... This may be a translation error, I think it means "leave it BENT in one week" Bent as in the BRITISH slang word for gay.

And you can not see the sun... This is a statement of fact, as opposed to stating that he himself had not seen the sunshine. As if somebody is preventing somebody else from seeing the sun.

Since then, I do not know when... This is suggesting that whoever is keeping the person in question from seeing the sunlight is affected by this fact. As if the fact that said can-not-see-sunlight person was preventing the other person from knowing 'when'.

What is when?

I think that my final conclusion is that all the EG members are moving into a portable training house (in britain). They are doing this because it means they have to spend less CASH, however people like Johnny Cash (people from Arkansas) think this is gay.

Yeah this seems weird, it's like they wanted to hype an announcement but they didn't want to overhype it so they just said that there would be one.
I don't get where they're going with this one.
I guess we'll find out though.

They wouldn't be hyping a single player transfer (see EGPuma for reference). The two face thing seems to suggest at least two players to EG, if the hype is about a transfer that is. The anouncement will probably be delivered on "Inside the game", where Idra and Incontrol will be live when the countdown ends.

Also, White-ra seems likely. Face of light -> sun -> Egyptian sun -> Ra. Even more so, as White was his clan-name back in BW, and it just stuck to him, much like [9] is an old clan tag that day[9] uses (although he picked it up when the nine clan was down and out).

It is probably a big combo though. Something like a 9hit air combo into ultra as a finisher. Also, Im going to be a bit more ambitious than most people here. I predict an entire apartment complex to be bought and rented out for progamer houses, with several contracts already in place, as to create a centralized Northern American SC2 pro-gamer scene. That, or an SC2 ProLeague, created in the image of the BW ProLeague in Seoul SK, to be broadcasted on nation-wide television.

EGIncontrol slated as the favorite of the tournament.

Well I really don't know if it has to do with StarCraft II but consdering the people talking about it, I think it has got to be:
1. An acquisition. A team (like FXO, less likely) or a player (probably Korean, possibly European). What would blow my mind the most would be EGCruncher or EGHuk (yea these are preceeded by a BW pro, but I don't think so)
2. Moving to Korea. This is quite possible and I would love it if we could see IdrA get the practice he needs (but doesnt deserve )



Moving to Korea.

I don't know why anyone in this thread has suggested this. EG JUST got a progaming house, why would they pick it up and move to Korea? That makes no sense at all.

Announcing an announcement usually makes me care less when the thing is actually announced. Just saying.

I agree :p
When an organisation has big news and they just announce what it is instead of this way most people's reactions are:
OMGWTFBBQPANCAKES SO KEWL!

Now we are prepared for anything ^^

Originally I intended the announcement to be a fun game where someone could win a Liquid shirt but as it turns out, it took on a life of its own. Currently the TL.net thread stands at ~1600 posts and the Reddit thread has 982. Unfortunately, as it turns out, not a single person guessed what the announcement was.

However, one person does appear to have completely deciphered our plans and that's Pangpootata with this post: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewpost.php?post_id=10772767

It is obvious that he is a deserving winner of our shirt. I apologise for overhyping the event, that was not my intention at all, but what I can say is this: it is the first item of a chain of news items.

Sadly not all the items are good news.

I'm sure it's their own website?
There is a theory which states, that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly dissapear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable. There is another theory that this has already happened.

It could be nothing about starcraft at all. It could be an announcement of a LOL team.

Why would EG.Lec post in fanclubs about the announcement unless it was SCII. I have no clue what it is, but I'm sad to see all the EG bashing still going on on TL. Can't wait for the announcement.
