Machine is so awesome. I miss watching him get drunk on stream was good times! Help Idra get in better shape so you guys can punish all of the protoss players you meet!
Machine's an oldschool badass. Maybe not the best of the best in the world, but I'll always remember him beasting it up back in BW, and now SC2. One of the coolest ID's ever, too. =)
Dude I've been trying to contact you for like 6 days now regarding our Geforce match.
I PM'ed u on TL, you got an email from geforce, and I messaged u on battle.net when u were online. U didn't reply to any of these.
I want to reschedule our geforce group match. I can play every day between 2PM and 6PM CDT. let me know when you can play. My email is mruugacz(at)gmail.com. Or PM me on TL with a date u can play.
I just had a dream where I was walking down the street and I saw some guy and thought he was machine...I asked him if he was machine and he said no and flipped me off
sign me up, always been a fan of this guy since I saw him play for in brood war. Grats on the ongoing awesome run at IPL, you finally got to prove yourself as a top tier zerg
Awesome video (the habenero one, or however you spell it). It's cool to see the EG guys doing random stuff like that. :D It makes me like them more as a team, as strange as that sounds now that I think about it. Anyway, I'm also here since this is the Machine fan club. Sign me up!
machine is improving, slowly but surely :D its only a matter of time before he does very well at a major tournament (hell it could be as soon as the next mlg) sign me up :D

A huge thanks to these three for just being generally awesome. Megumi dragged Machine across a crowded bar just to give us two no-name spectator scrubs a chance to be in a picture with them. You rock and you made our fucking night.
After watching his stream today, I've become a major fan. Machine's such a nice player who actually interacts with his fans and explains what he's doing at all times. Even though I'm not a Zerg player, his stream is now one of my favorites. Sign me up!
Looking forward to seeing him perform well at future events.
I never thought being a mod on a stream would be that big of a deal, but, once machine said on stream ''I now dub you Sir UnholyGregor'' my whole world was just turned upside down. <3

soooooo awesome!!!! im going to check these out asap edit: ooooo i even saw some of these on your stream my favorites are you, machine, vs Ruff and Defuslim vs Oov
Anyone else feel bad that machine has 3-10x less viewers than the other EG members during these practice sessions? I sometimes open a couple for their ad revenue but if I don't I always go to machine!

"Fuuuuuck yeah, I have no idea if I'm behind... but that at least looked cool"- Machine against NRGMalice (?) on stream today after a shitton of spines pop to hold a roach push, was hilarious.
Good job with the solo casting. It seems like it would be incredibly hard to do, especially for someone who hasn't been casting for long but you're keeping up well.
Sad that Machine is underrated in his viewers. The guy not only has entertaining stream but his solo casting as well as casting with DeMuslim are so great. Keep it up Bryce. Your analytical cast is very good and unlike what some haters on the chat said, your voice is not boring at all and actually makes the casting more interesting.
I agree with Lokerek, although Machine's viewers like the majority of streamers, flux at different times of the day. Machine's voice and quirks make his casts entertaining and yeah, the cast with DeMuslim was really entertaining and again with idrA due to the back and forth!
Aside from that Machine has a solid music taste and an entertaining and qualitative stream which I tune in to whenever I am able
Yep sign me up. A great player with a ton of potential here. With EG bolstering its roster with top notch players Machine is just going to continue to improve and that potential is going to come to fruition. The Rise of the Machine.
You should be proud how much you're improving. You somehow always seem to be the forgotten member of EG, which is disappointing because you're stream and personality are awesome
http://www.twitch.tv/onemoregametv/b/319846626 ^ Holy fucking shit. @ past 45 minutes you see machine walks down stairs. It looks so freaking glorious. DAT MAN WALK. Had to rewind that just to confirm what I saw. Completely blanked out on what they were talking about.

Ok Machine, you will do well in this MLG. If I could pick 3 players that I wanted to win MLG Anehiem 2012 you would be one of them. Just stay calm, listen to some metal, and creep your heart out. I think this would be the most epic thing if you won. Do us proud Machine!!!!!
I'm totally in for the Machine Fan Club. I love that he has a sense of humor and humility. Guy has serious potential and is (word from my friends who've met him) an all-around great person. I'm rooting for you, Bryce!
♥ machine, he's just awesome! Really fun to watch his stream, and he listens to good music like took and nevermore, and is well mannered, more so than a lot of other streamers.
Machine is one of the coolest guys in E-sports and one of my favorite. He inspires me, and lots of others to do wonderful things. I met him a few years ago, and he was one of the most down to earth people I've ever met. I respect and admire him, I hope he will see this and know that people love and adore him.

So Bryce went to MLG Dallas this past weekend! Starting off in the winners bracket 6 gets a BYE and then 2-0's a player, Pand0. Loses to a Korean however name JookTo. Now Machine is brought down into Bracket 2. Machine gets seeded into round 3 of bracket 2 because of his placement in the winners bracket. He then starts his streak: 2-0's Karbyn then 2-1's hurricane603, 2-0's Drakke who was just seeded down into 5 of the bracket because he had his own stride in the Winners bracket then Machine Vs. Liquid'Sheth. Sadly Machine fell 0-2 but he performed decent and made a name for himself. Lets hope he can even do better next time!
I don't know if this is the correct thread to post this in, but I was wondering if EGMachine gets a salary? I mean he the kind of player that no one really hears about. No standing results and stuff? I am not saying he is bad or anything, I am just wondering if this kind of players gets a salary?
And also, is it possible for EG to dismiss their team members based on performance?
Someone needs to sign me up for this, because Machine seems to be just about the most manner, chill dude. Also, best looking EG member, because Suppy doesn't count because this is the Machine fan club. <3
