Am I the only one that would prefer listening to Ng5 rather than to hear someone else alongside him who, in comparison, would be basically incompetent?

If Jaedong offered to stream and chat with viewers personally for 24 hours about Starcraft in English, would you want him to cast together with Tasteless?

Ng5, will this be recorded and saved as a VOD? I would like to store this for future lessons as well and watch it over a few days.

You mean like 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nc3 Bb4 4. a3 Bxc3 5. bxc3 c5 6. e4 that goes on with 6... Qa5 7. e5? Because in case yes I did that before. It's one of those weird variations that can manage to be both complicated and incomplicated at the same time. I'll explain later.



And in regards to the Gretorp stuff - I actually contacted him and it would be nice if he could tag along a little - I think it should be fun.

Don't be so offensive, guys. It's a 24 hour so there will be plenty of me-time. It's just fun if you have guest appearances - that's what makes a fun show fun after all. And it also takes some stress off of my chords.

And it's a perfect way to make new friends - which is always awesome. Ever since I've come to the US I just love to meet new people.

Personally I've been fancying the idea to make a guest appearance at some SC II stream / tourney broadcast - if a chance arose I would gladly take it. Especially if it was a streamer/commentator I like or adore for some reason.

It's not like I'm any decent or I know the build orders - but that's why I would not be the host. On the other hand I think I have pretty neat insights into psychology in general and during a game - and through my experiences I can usually tell when there's a turning point in a game even if I don't have a freaking clue why. It's been the same with chess ten years ago. Or my job.

You never know when you meet such people - and small stuff like that can make your life so great. Things happen at the most random ways in life. If anyone I can tell you that.

So don't be scared. I can't think of more than one thing that could keep you from having enough chess content in that 24-hours.

yes, I was mistaken. It is e4. It was played recently at a major tournament and the game was very exciting.

wow.. more distinguished guests? can't wait!

I'm almost entirely sure it is going to be the 18th, I just don't want to update that part until after all my exams are over. I have some technical difficulties, too - which I can only solve once that's done.

Can you tell me which tournament and which game? I can't really follow live events anymore and I kind of grew bored of them a while ago as well. I could talk about the particular game as well. The main line itself is a little too straightforward to my tastes.

Great! I was wondering about the date as well. I'm really looking forward to this. Maybe you should sing some Queen, or something from "Chess" - the musical. It would only be fitting... :D

London Classic Chess Championship stream http://www.livestream.com/londonchessclassic

Magnus Carlson ftw.

I realize tournaments like chess is not related to sc2. But live stream links to tournaments like this would be super awesome. thanks
Can I ask you a question?

Okay guys. The date is now officially the 18th!

Sorry I'm still being quite busy for now I won't be replying to the latest posts till tomorrow night, and that's the soonest I'll be able to properly update the OP as well.

I'm working on getting everything done and I might switch to JustintTV or Own3d for better quality streams. I heard Justin just had some new stuff going on which made screencapturing easier.

But don't worry - even if I won't be able to find the time to test all the new options I can still use my old LiveStream account.

Updated OP. Announced date.

Please sign up to the simul if you are still interested.

If there is only a few volunteers I could try giving a simul with blind tables.

Nah to be honest whenever I get into my real chess rhythm the quote that comes to my mind...

I always like to show some decency, but music always brings out the beast in me. - Dead Celeb Status

I tried doing that at the start of the semester with USCL. I think I had two streams on it, but I just couldn't keep up with the time. I think I should be able to stream more regulary in the future, but I don't want to promise anything since... Well if we are at quoting lyrics already...

Actually I didn't know it was GSL finals, but I was sure I would collide with something bigger.

That's the only day I can really do it well, though, so I don't have much choice.

I think that's how he heard about the whole stuff, probably then. Or at least connected.

Is there a timeline, so we know when certain things will be happening, or is it just gonna be whatever you feel like?

Yep.

ICC. You can just make a trial account for a week for free. It has a nice interface that makes it easy on me to set up the simul, or just bother an admin to help me with it.
