ToKoreaWithLove: The game was a practice game, where hone organised the players to meet on a certain bnet channel to play some demonstration games - which we watched the games on a projector

Ilnp: Cheers for clearing that up; but I thought he was from New Zealand? Oh well either way I've met him :O

Casper, Tsunami did NOT hack and is probably the most mannared player I've ever seen. He has beaten the likes of grr and others, establishing him as good player, but not a progamer. So I dont know why you can say he sucks, he just doesn't have time to practice.

LOL, maybe you think so bad of him cuz he was a z player that frequently dominated toss.

We all know Z dominating toss is unheard of --v

And btw, Tsunami is now an arrogant little bitch, after being followed around by yes men for a year, he was no longer as manner as he once was. And many people have beaten grrrr and others, doesnt mean they can do it when the game matters, everybody knows grrr is 10x better in tourney play than online play.

the story i recall is that maynard became known when he went onto whatever the sc kali server at the time was (the leet one, not the fucktard one), unknown (mostly?) and proceeded to beat each and every "best" player there (at the time, the best players in sc were all considered to be the best ones on that kali server). something like that. of course he also played war2 but wasnt known for that i guess and maybe he had friends or w/e hell i dont know. honestly if you want to know about that part of sc history you should go to the source.. grrr, maynard, agent, everlast, ntt might remember too? whatever.. i hope sc and bw history, strategic, tournies, leagues, balance changes etc. becomes a section somewhere, its good stuff and shouldnt be overlocked by the fanboyism "the current bw is perfectly balanced. everything before was inferior and it cannot be improved upon, period"

Didn't Hone and Mensrea post simultaneous on broodwar.com in the pre-Iszard era?
That would mean they're not the same person, or Hone/Mensrea was already blowing smoke up our asses back then. Why would he do that?
