In my opinion the "gift" or whatever it will be, should be given before anaheim, if possible, because then he could go to the tournament with a good mood.
I think there are pro's and con's to both.

I've already PM'd Anna about it .

In my opinion you shouldn't make this any hype thing. Just send it to idra, no youtube videos, no interviews etc. It makes the "gift" less nice if it's just another thing to promote EG, it's for idra, not for EG.

Understand though that IdrA is part of EG.... us being able to see his reaction is also nice.

I think we should gather a crowd to send a lot of fan letters to him, let him know what we think, how much we want him to win and how fucking awesome he is.
|
We should probably collect some "support" lines from various people. Just the gift itself wouldn't hold as much meaning as some wishes from various people/countries etc.
I am from a country he probably never even heard off lol, and he has a group of fans here. I am sure there are plenty of other cases like this. A card of sorts has to happen in this gift !

Well, yeah, I think it's normal that you always send a card with the gift together. The question is, what will be written in this card? just 1 complete letter from all of us or 1-liners from everyone in here, or maybe both?

Maybe if all persons contribute like 1-3 lines, and there are all combined into a single document, presented nicely? (Like spaces separating each contribution etc. obviously)

Then if he's ever upset/down on himself for poor results he could go read pages and pages of encouragement and support from his fans!

Totally willing to add to that sheet. I LOVE IDRAAAAA FIGHTING
|
Yeah I was thinking about sending him something too.
I think if we send it we should not make it a "hype" thing. It should be private. IdrA will not be happy if he sees this as more pressure. We're not doing this to make him feel pressured though.

listening to demu talk about idras game v morrow and apparently he played really well losing only because of unit control

Btw.

Fellow Grackheads. We all come to this sacred thread every day to bask in the glory that is Gregory "IdrA" Fields, be it fangirling cheering or cursing we are all united in our fandom. And never has our fandom been more important. Greg's recent loss to + Show Spoiler + hurt us all, but it was obvious that Greg was the one hurting the most, staring wordlessly in to the score screen. Our overseer needs us, and lets not dissapoint him. Thoughts/Ideas- Firstly, similar cheerfuls have been done before. See here and here for previous examples.
- I'd also like us all to somehow present these letters to the Lair in a wooden box of sorts. Imagine opening a box and there's a ton of cheerful letters in it!
Happy IdrA week - Mail edition I think we should follow the general jist of these, and perhaps even plan a (as someone else in the thread suggested) "Happy IdrA week" where we make sure to send positive mails to the EG Lair in Arizona. What's even better is that EG host a bi-weekly show titled "Mail call" where they collect the best letters of the week and comment them in a youtube video. The recipiant of the letter/mail/picture/gift very often also gives a short reading/examination of the gift. Happy IdrA week - Twitter editionWe could also go about as the latest Jaedong project and send him positive messages through Twitter with the hashtag: #HappyIdrA, or #IdrAfighting. Gift basketLike the great user Reivax (Sverige slåss!) suggested, we could all chip in for a nice gift basket. He was also handsome and smart enough to actually find a Gift basket service based in Arizona! http://www.gifttree.com <- Someone of us should go through some of their stuff and the suggest which items look the best and we vote for which one we should choose. Important stuff- Address to the EG lair: Evil Geniuses Lair
[Specific Individual, if desired] PO Box 71939 Phoenix, AZ 85050
- A joint paypal account must be created, and who are willing to chip in?
A work in progress
definitely support this!!!

This is exactly what i meant before

what doesnt kill you makes you stronger...
loses to TriMaster at MLG -> wins RoG + IEM GZ + places high at Orlando
loses many many games -> ???
|
So I was just watching some VOD's of random games from IdrA.
I believe I have had an epiphany. After mid-game vs Terran he seems to pretty much abandom zerglings. Going Ultra's isn't as bad as people make it, but it really is when you don't have ling support.
Also another thing I noticed in ALOT of his losses was how many dam infestors he throws away vs P and T.
Is it just me or have others noticed these things?
