I AM L
Means I'm a master detective for those clueless people out there ㅋㅋㅋ

[image loading]

Introduction

In LIGHT (get it? LOL) of all the nominations occurring over at the "Nominate Someone to Win a Beta Key" thread I've decided to create a thread and a poll about what exactly is going on over there. With all this "I NOMINATE MYSELF PLEASE GIVE ME" madness going on over there let's weed out the fun stuff shall we? Seriously ... a thing named Dawkling mistakenly puts it out there that it is a girl, then goes and says its a guy who dates other guys ... LOL check the "Is Dawkling gay?" spoiler below.

Now as far as nominations go, the ones where we actually have one person nominating ANOTHER person (not themselves), the nominator must have created the account well before the actual posting of the nominations thread. This weeds out all those 1 posters who are probably all the same person nominating him or her self over and over again (funny story below).

So lets get on to the nominations shall we? Also, I just realized there's no point in creating a poll because people will just vote from different locations on themselves.

Nominations

Okay so I tried to count the nominations but there's just WAAAAAAAAAAAY too many, but the general gist of actual nominations include:

      FuDDx
      Bill307
      Lyriene
      Mystlord
      boesthius
      konadora
      Roffles
      flamewheel91
      MrHoon
      IntoTheWow
      roMAD

Now I know this isn't 100% accurate but I just flipped through the pages to see what names I saw a lot and those were the ones that turned up. Completely agreeable in my honest opinion. Now, how many self nominations did I see? Over 300, which makes the thread that has only 400 posts have around 75% of self voters ... do these people actually think they're going to get a key? ^^

Fun Stuff

This thing also has a picture of a girl in its profile ... but minutes after Detective kOre finds out ... LOL Chill nuked it.

I am not sure at all of the current beta status for these two individuals, but I'm nominating them anyway!

LosingID8 - a real gentleman
Pholon - helped me a lot when I made the Protoss spell pages for Liquipedia II
MrHoon - enough said

heh thanks for the nomination. it's true that i don't have a beta key but i've already been offered one by staff/friends and i've refused probably 4 or 5 times now.

i'm going to be super busy this summer with work and studying for the MCAT so i don't want to be distracted. i'd rather have a beta key go to someone who will play daily and get the most mileage out of it, rather than someone like me who would only play once or twice a week.

Choosing school + work over beta I wish I had that much control.

I'd like to nominate kOre for being a master detective and for setting up the StarcraftMecca SC merchandise shop.

With me kissing his ass, perhaps he will give me a beta key as he did for infinity21.

I played Starcraft since it FIRST came out as a little kid because my dad was a pc bang owner in Korea.

Again, I nominate kOre, whom I do not personally know, but hope to begin to know as I begin to fall in love with him the moment he gives me a beta key.

Hi, kOre LOL


Hahaha just kidding though, even if I were to get a key, I wouldn't play it much so no point in giving me one.

Conclusion

Props to TL for getting 50 keys and sharing them with the fans. A big two thumbs up for TL

Don't tell me you didn't see that coming. I would not have allowed nominating yourself.

Great work you did there.
I don't blame them tho, had my ego be smaller I would've voted myself too. Beta key to the 'sequel' of the best game ever is pretty desirable stuff.
Agree with the list you came up with, hope they get picked. You should go study now.

I also nominate FuDDx. Because I've always found him to be a nice poster (to argue with even).

+1 vote for him.
Im not a n00b, I just play like one.

Really? How could those guys not have a key by now? At least half of the people on that list could've gotten a key no problem if they just asked...
There was once a dream that was Esports. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish... Now is the time to make that dream a reality!

Was thinking the exact same thing, most of these people should have tons of keys tossed at them by now >_>

Add Ver and Kau to your list. They have both gotten votes, and are insanely deserving.


I also think that people from each area of the forum who contribute alot should get keys.
Ie someone from strategy, blogs, general, etc...

Makes it easier to seperate people who contribute heavily but only seen by small groups of people.

FuDDx if I didn't know you didn't have a key I would of gave you mine for the two weeks I'm not going to be able to use it. I third giving it to FuDDx because he is pure balloon twisting awesomeness.
