See, all this time arguing could have been spent playing Frog Fractions and improving your end of year.

Just keep playing it until you get the Dragon and can go down. Trust me.

Frog Fractions will improve your life with its amazing, ground breaking strangeness. The game is so weird that the creator made a Kickstarter to make a second game by popular demand. It was fully funded, even though the creator freely admitted he will not be telling anyone(including people who backed the kickstarter) where the game can be found or when it releases.

Remember, 20 sided dice were made to help you make difficult choices!

Bah, I'll just be a bit more open about it.

We're jotting some ideas for the public eSports public (all games) and it varies in terms of depth/content, but with that; it has to be fresh/new and draws the most interest in our product.

But that means we also play down certain communities or, worst, the subject we choose for a specific community may not be appealing or new at all, ruining our one shot. Play down meaning that they don't get as much spotlight, attention.

Marketing is hard and Esports fans are fickle creatures.

Lack context or life experience seems more on the mark. The fact that people need to be constantly reminded that jet lag is real and that everyone is in Esport to pay the bills is a big knock against us.

At least we have gotten off the whole "do it for the passion for the game" thing that SC2 was filled with. That shit was the worst.

And to be fair, most others sports sell merchandise. Beyond the Summit can't sell me beer when I watch their event, so they sell me hats.

But lets be clear, if they want to sell me beer, I will be all about that.

Thats totally fine. If they are selling a product, it makes them profitable and I get my pro-doto, everyone wins. We are seeing a little push back from players who think its all about the tickets and that they are playing to many games(and not getting paid by events), but that is natural.

And people go to sporting events to drink and be part of a crazy crowd. There is a reason Fenway Park, home of the Red Sox, is called the most expensive bar in Boston.
