I was talking to my gf about how a girl beat some koreans in a major tourney, my girlfriend is from korea and she found it unbelievable. I later told her she was a transgender, and my gf said "oh thats why she is good" She doesn't believe woman can be good at starcraft or gameing in general. She's lived in the U.S. for about 7 years and I've brodened her perspective on numerous things, and I would like to do the same with this. She is actually pretty good at games herself, not the best but better than my average American friend. So I was wondering if someone could elaborate on what sort of transgender she is. I'm not really familiar with the term, and not sure what exactly it means.
Also keep up the great play scarlett, I thought you were going to beat OZ. It was nailbiting, and I had to leave before the last game to go to work. tt. Hwaiting!!!
Well all that she has said is MtF transgender and will I am learning a lot about this my self i started with simply reading wikipedia (Link below). That being said there are some very intelligent post if you look through the fan-club.
Anyone can correct me if I'm wrong, but based on what i've read it all comes down to the brain. There are MtF transgendered cases where phsically borned males have "female" brain when compared under scan.

She was born biologically male, but identifies and lives her life as a female; that sounds like a simple answer, but that's really it. It's not known whether she's undergone hormone treatment or gender reassignment surgery, and it's not really any of our business anyway.
I like to emphasis your last part there

And I would like to emphasize that I added Scarlett's twitter to the OP. She now has a twitter. Send her some love!
I can't wait for the next tournament with Scarlett's participation. I am really looking forward to seeing more competitive games from her. The games during IPL4 really impressed me and I can't wait to see more of the Korean Kryptonite.

Threw up a Tweet on @Playhem, hopefully will get her some extra followers!

Made an account just to show support - sign me up, thumbs up from Denmark.
Also - Corpuscle, i overall liked your stream alot but if i may give some critical feedback as well i think you could improve/leave out the parts where you call GG's very early. I mean lets face it, you're right most of the time assuming no big mistakes are made (on Scarletts part), but it does take out some of the excitement in the game.
Maybe it just because its replay-casting or you were spoiled due to knowing the result beforehand, i dno
Oh and i would also like it to be a little less biased towards Scarlett - just for future progames. Don't know if im oversensitive though

I try to call it like it is, I don't like it when casters act like the game is still close when one person's clearly won. I understand that some of the tension is lost, but it feels to me like most people watching are going to know that the game's pretty much over whether I say it or not. It wasn't really due to me knowing results beforehand; I always close the replay bar thing so I can't see how long the game's gonna go, and if you watch some of my other casts where I don't actually know who wins, it's pretty much the same thing.
And yeah, I realize I was Scarlett-biased, but that was entirely intentional. I was doing those casts to see how Scarlett plays, not to see how xGKingiaguz or Guillycuddy or Canti or whatever other randoms she was up against play.
edit: also in the future, if you or others have casting feedback for me, I'd prefer you PM me rather than post it here, unless it's some sort of conversation about the game itself. This isn't the corpuscle casting feedback thread. :D

Is there anything fans need to do to influence who is a "featured" streamer on Team Liquid? I know there is a relatively small percentage of total streamers who are shown on the right side of TL's site automatically, but have never thought to wonder what separates the featured from the not.

How to become featured?
We will be reviewing featured streams monthly, and will be adding and removing featured streams accordingly. Just because a player was removed at this time does not mean he will never be added again.
The best way to become featured is to gain viewers, win tournaments, or a combination of both. Again, we understand it is difficult to "gain viewers" without being featured, but we feel that featured status is something that recognizes popular and skilled players, not a vehicle to make players popular or skilled.
*Any players qualified for the current GSL Code A or S seasons will be featured on request.
I can't imagine that she won't be featured, but if she isn't right away, as long as lots of people watch, she'll get it.
edit: also if you're worried about missing her stream because she isn't featured, you can favorite streams on TL, and they'll show up along with the featured people.

Lol, my meager 3 posts betray my TL ignorance. Thanks.

I always suspected that DeMusliM was secretly evil, but never had proof. XD

"Secretly evil" pfft there is a reason he is on EG afterall >

OP if you're still adding people to the list can you please add me? I already requested it once before an update was made and you apparently missed my post and forgot to add me. Scarlett is my #1 idol right now so I just really want to be on the fanlist. ^^
