the only thing i have to say is... omg that house is small for that many people. you really have to get along well to live in a place like that. also... one bathroom? but i guess they're never late for work or anything hahaha

he did complain, that sleeping with 6 in a room which is smaller then my room, is just not a way to live ...

dunno how someone can live under such condition, i am pretty surprised that tlo managed to survive 2 whole months in this prison
while the house seems fine, it is way to small (6people in a small sleeping room???)

anyway nice video so much insigh into the oGsTL house

Are you seriously comparing a prison to an all day job?????? With freedoms? I dont see the comparison... at all.....

Spunky looks a really cool guy. I've really gotta commend him for his hospitality and I'm glad that finally he got some attention.

wow some of those comments on giant bomb made me cringe pretty hard. Dunno what I expected from a console gamer site though.

Enjoyable/intresting video though!

With no offense to the players or pro-gaming, I totally understand why TLO wouldn't want to spend the next year or two there.

I mean, its a great environment for improving, its your day job, you got co-workers to discuss your job, living in that kind of atmosphere will no doubt improve their skills. 12 hours of practicing there is totally different from 12 hours of practicing on ladder with random opponents.

However, I would totally understand anyone who doesnt want to stay there. living with 6 people in a tiny room is not what westerners are used to, in fact they probably have a house that big for themselves instead of 30 people.

It is fairly common in asia tho, like university residents. The residents in NA are HUGE compare to what they have in Korea or China, 8 people in a tiny room is actually the norm.

But yeah.....now i feel really bad for Huk, its going to be hard for him to get into GSL now, its gonna take at least half a year. If he stays in Korea it's going to be hard, but moving out would mean a great loss and possibly losing the opportunity to compete at the highest level.

Aww poor Huk ><

It would be so cool do to stuff like that, however i feel that i would NEVER be able to. That much starcraft would drive me insane, you have to have such great dedication to what you believe in to play that many games in a straight session. I wonder how often they try crazy new things on each other, like building just queens and ultras or something.

That's some crazy commitment living so many people in so little room. Hopefully theres going to be more money flowing to the teams so they can pay for less cramped living space.

Lol, its nice seeing so many people being scarred and shocked to see the living conditions of Progamers for the first time. Yep, its like that. NaDa, SlayerSBoxer, ZergBong (not so much) they've lived like that for 10 years, that's what they've given.

Thats why when people call people like qxc and select ~pros~ I can't quite take them seriously.Yes, those guys are very good, excellent even, at SC2. But do they get paid to play full-time. Is it their job? Have they spent years in living conditions like these doing menial chores just to get up to that level?

No. But all the SC:BW B-teamers that get knocked out in the major league qualifiers have. The B-teamers who's highest achievements will be some glory in the minor leagues have given up their college and even some secondary education for it. All the SC:BW A-teamers, they've been at it for even longer. What do the SC2 ~"Pros"~ have on that?
