Which part? Stayed in Seoul for 6 months, was great.

Not sure yet! I'm on a long-term vacation from work and my girlfriend is on a 3 month sabbatical; we figured we should do some kind of very longterm travel while we have the chance! So I just booked tickets to Seoul and figured that'd force us to figure something out. We'll probably head over to either Japan or Taiwan for at least a few days. Haven't booked any lodging yet so pretty flexible on where we go.

Anyway if you've got suggestions I'd gladly take them!!

If you like hiking, definitely go to Seoraksan national park. It's especially beautiful during autumn.

Haven’t seen you around here in forever! Hope you’re doing well.


Yeah, it's been forever.. and I'm doing great ty. Lots of stuff has been going on, new job, been learning japanese. I've played a few Dota games recently, but it's difficult to tolerate how bad I've become lol, so I'll probably stick to PoE.

Definitely worth a trip, though I'm not sure how you'd get there without a car. The temples are pretty cool too. The only issue is every single building is labelled something like, 'this temple existed since the 1100s ... until the Japanese burned it down. This is a reconstruction.'


You can get there by bus. I used a tour group thingie to get there (https://www.trazy.com/), but I'm confident you can get there much cheaper by using the regular busses that Koreans would use. The tour was too short for my liking, so when the tour was over, I went to Sokcho to finish the day, and then spent a full day at Seoraksan the day after. Good times. Found an old pic

It sucks. Like as problematic as DPC is..... I wish Valve tried to do stuff with the capital they were generating. It feels like an insane amount of money was wasted and now the scene is going to have to through a huge recession to get its bearings back.

dpcs death was bound to happen with valve, but i doubt many players knew it was going to end through an announcement like this. valve probably wont announce invite format until next summer

future will probably be esl driven league formats

Well as far as I understand also the pro teams were not really happy how the DPC seasons worked. So seeing them gone is maybe a good change. They said that more information about TI-qualification is coming up. Will be interesting to see, what they have in mind!

I'm mostly being tongue in cheek but in like 2014-2015 when EG was the only NA team worth a damn and every LANs qualifiers were like 8 team month long round robins EG just got invites to LANs instead of playing the qualifier

@eieio

Have you been watching season 2 of the Wheel of Time show? It's definitely a fairly significant upgrade over season 1 so far, especially with regards to the writing/direction. It's 100% still a much different turning of the wheel, but I no longer hate it lol. Also the new Mat is better than the old one.

edit: Well I didn't hate season 1, I was just severely disappointed.
