Pretty much. She's a 2/10 or 3/10 around these parts.

Also ACS, also Army, also no Singlish.

Sure makes speaking to old Warrant Officers a lot of fun, doesn't it?


*shrugs* Signals has a lot of Indian enciks, and a whole lot of them are very well-spoken. Your point? I don't believe in maiming the English language. Maybe you enjoy it but I certainly do not.

Reread my post, I just said I'm from the same background and don't speak Singlish whatsoever. That's agreeing. Most of the Warrants I had were difficult to communicate with at first until we got used to how each other spoke. That's my point - you're quite lucky to have had an easy time with it.

Sorry to go off topic, but I felt like chiming in since we have similar viewpoints.

Ok, I'm watching the GSL Code A right now and I cannot for the life of me understand why they chose Kelly.


No offense to her, but her english just isn't good enough. Yes, she knows all the words but her accent is way too thick.


Where is artosis?

Sound muted

God forbid that I be considered a "true Singaporean" just because I choose not to rape the English language with the ferocity of a vibrating pineapple powered by a V8 engine into the anus of a goat.

Pity. Tbh, imo, I haven't heard a great commentator from SG yet. How do I put it: Kelly does appeal to her target audience - gamers who speak singlish. However, when she's taken out of that context, she becomes... not so good. In any case, it is GOMTV that should be criticised for the decision, rather than the caster who applied. She is, after all, just trying to advance her career.


Then you probably haven't been around much in the gaming scene. There are competent Singaporean commentators, but they're rare and aren't the attention-seeking sort like Kelly.


Haha true, that, not around enough, no time

Yeah, I suppose if you want to speak clear english and you're aware of it, all power to you. I haven't met Kelly, but I really think that GOM TV is kinda at fault here. I mean, it's so cool to have a Singaporean cast this (when I first read it, I was like 'yes!'), but then again, when I heard her VODs, I was like "uh-oh"... and "hopefully she improves." Now, I'm just "yeah, maybe they should've just gotten someone else".

This is pretty bad. >_>

No offense to Kelly, I'm happy for her that she's doing well and advancing in her /career/, I just don't understand WHY she's doing well.

All she's given me so far is a headache... I don't understand what she's talking about most of the time, and her voice is killing me.. gonna switch off and do something else.

I am becoming extremely distracted by her hands when they put the camera on the casters. It kind of reminds me of Talledega Nights where he has the interview and he doesn't know what to do with his hands. But as expected, I have been having an extremely hard time making out what she says. She is talking faster than needed in the play by plays and her accent makes it worse. She should take hints from Tasteless and paraphrase everything than trying to spruce everything up.

Nah i think her cheekbones/facial structure is a lot better than most asian girls. Might just be the stream pixelating it tho lol

I actually registered after having creeped TL for 2 years just to say "what was GOM thinking?!?!?!"

Her game sense is haphazard at best with very general observations and stock criticism. And the accent...I thought the English caster/commentators were for English people. I can barely make out what she says half the time and when I can understand its just frustrating with the lack of proper phrasing/articulation etc.

I'm not one to complain excessively but I do pay for these broadcasts and I feel I've been shortchanged as I'll be watching the code A's without sound.

Please make a new thread if you have to discuss whether she's good looking or not, or whether her cheek bones are nice or not, cause this is not the place. We're mourning here.. Show some respect.

I feel really bad for Kelly actually. I totally understand why she took the job because it will do her a lot of good in the long run. Although this first day might be rough for her... maybe even the first week by my predictions. In the end she WILL get more comfortable around Tasteless and Artosis. When that happens she will be more herself and that is what people will be attracted to. She will learn then games and strats as time goes by, but once Tasteless and Artosis are comfortable enough to call her out on mistakes she makes while casting (like Artosis does to Tasteless all the time) and laugh about the blunder right afterwards then I think the criticism will stop, and fun will be had by all!!!!!!

Keep it up Kelly

Maybe it's just because I'm from Australia where we are exposed to a lot of different accents, but she really isn't as bad as you guys are making her out to be. At least for me I can understand her fine.

I don't like the pitch of her voice or the emphasis she puts on certain words, but I have no problem understanding her.

I also think it's weird when they look into each others eyes all the time when they are talking ^_^

Seriously, Gom have made bad decisions before, but "zomg GIRL!" and casting someone with very limited experience compared to so many others....may god have mercy on us all...



mmm maybe a little harsh?

She's obviously nervous, maybe see how she is when she gets more relaxed.

awesome first post and welcome to TL (in a way).

I find that she's uncomfortable and finicky infront of the camera... seems that I may not be the only one with that sense.

I hate to bring more negativity, but being a non-native English speaker, I find it hard to understand her accent considering that I need to hear the words properly in order to understand them.

I wouldn't judge her casting skills yet considering it's still her very first appearance in GSL casting, but I hope it improves, she sometimes stays too silent for too long, or talks for too long, though I'm sure that will improve once she gets used to her co-caster.
Watch the minimap.

Agreed, when she is talking slowly at the start of the games she is perfectly fine. She loses it a little when she starts to talk faster.

I also think she should refer to the players by their names and not call them 'toss' and 'zerg'.
