They actually tried to get the LoL site on .com but it was already taken so I guess that ends this discussion.

Rekt. And thus ends another "Why did Liquid do this?!?!?!!" discussion.

For someone who dislikes GD so much you spend a lot of time making it worse

Same here, but I don't think I can justify the cost and the oil bill might just stop me from going anyplace this year. But it would be a lot of fun.

August 3 is National Watermelon Day per the internet. So I have no fucking clue why you get it off. Do you work in a watermelon factory?

The first Monday in August is a "civic holiday" in Canada, where cities may choose to designate it as a holiday apparently. There's national legislation about how many statutory holidays you get though so my employer has chosen this one as one to grant.

Oh yeah, Passive, if you’re in Boston on 1/31/15, my girl’s band is playing at the Middle East at like 10 pm. I am in shameless promotion mode, so you should totally go and bring all your girlfriend’s friends and any other human you know.

pretty sure u misunderstood that
main event=not only playoffs
unless i misunderstood
6 days seems awfully short to include groupstage
6 days seems impossible for stage
