How exactly do you feel like he doesn't deserve it? He does such a tremendous amount for the Starcraft community, I feel like he's a very good candidate to have received that sort of recognition.


I feel like anyone that streams and cast random tournaments could have this award if he deserved it. Why day9 and not djwheat, chill, artosis, etc? Unless this is award is a popularity contest i fail to see why.




Day9 talks fundamental strategy like no other and does it in a way so that anyone can understand. Everything else aside from artosis/tasteless commentary is fluff. What sets day9 apart from those 2 pro casters is that anyone can understand him. I like djwheat, husky, and others as far as entertainment value is concerned, but after watching pro starcraft for the past 10 years of my life, I find my understanding of the game infinitely deeper then anything they have to say, the only casters who challenge the way I approach starcraft strategically are day9 and artosis, that's it.

EDIT:
Oh ya, and grats Sean, you deserve it!

Merry Christmas Day9!

Thank you for everything and most importantly your infectious laugh that nearly killed everyone actually playing the drinking game in the last SOTG

Congrats Day[9]!!! I would believe that it would be hard to say that you are not a complete baller as you call so many others. You deserve this for sure and as you try and make e-sports bigger, this award only fuels the fire!! Does it make you feel amazing that everything you do just makes e-sports that much more successful??

Granted I have no knowledge of the competition, but I firmly believe no one deserves this title more than Sean Plott.

He's dedicated so much time and effort to the game of Starcraft and, more importantly, to the community, and expected absolutely nothing in return (though I'm glad to say we've managed to return the favor in what little ways we can). I'm really happy that he's getting the recognition he deserves.

Congrats, Sean.

Lol. Is this a joke?

Of COURSE it's a popularity contest. How are you supposed to help e-sports if you're not popular?

The good thing about Day[9] is that he is popular because he is the best.

Congrats, Day9, and thanks.

Great to see some more Day 9 love in more mainstream news!

Thanks to Day9, I'm still terrible at Starcraft 2! I'm just a terrible diamond player instead of a terrible copper player before tuning in to his show! He has taught me that there is always more to learn and always room for improvement, and to just enjoy the game no matter the wins or losses.

Thanks Day9!
