I think ramping things up by starting with a low player and working your way up to better opponents might be one idea.

I agree with Raelcun, Incontrol seemed to be, well, in control of the whole entire event and if qxc tried to say anything he was instantly bashed and actually sounded upset at some points.

At one point he even tried to say something along the lines of well it's hard to talk with you insulting me but Incontrol talked over him :/

Not to be too negative here, but most of the good players out there didn't get as good as they are, because of their rhetoric. It's a bit much to expect the guest stars to be amazing at the game; good enough to beat very competent players even while doing ridiculous strategies, while being high-class entertainers at the same time.

There's always going to be a certain amount of 'awkwardness' in these shows, because, on top of the fact that (again) the guests aren't there for their public speaking skills, there's always going to be times when the players are actually trying to concentrate on what they're doing, so the casters (Chill and iNc do a great job btw, I actually tune in to listen to them more so than seeing the silly strats) will have to fill a lot of dead air and have a fair few of their questions go unanswered.

The reason I like Chill and iNc's casting thus far, is because they genuinely seem to find those 'dead air' moments funny; those moments where the guest doesn't respond, or just says "nicks!!", for no reason. That's what makes it entertaining, it's only awkward if they are feeling awkward, and they clearly don't.

I would, however, say that it sometimes feels a bit too much like 'impromptu attack', as iNcontrol so nicely called it, because the structure is a little bit lacking at the moment. But it is early days yet. I'm sure it will settle down and the casters and guests (particularly) will be a bit more relaxed and the whole thing will flow a bit more smoothly.

It was alright, I really liked team melee idea. This time team a bit failed, but there is potential.

LOL I was laughing my ass off every time Harry said something it was pure gold.
-This is boring (said it like ten times) sO TRUE. omg some parts were ok but for the most part this wasn't fun to watch.
-I wouldn't date a chick who watched TLA (LOL)

Harry needs to host this event. He is a boss.

The best part of TLA is Chill's laugh. I dunno, it's just so contagious. xP

Very funny episode. It was great that the VODs were up so fast. I really enjoyed the SCV rush. Losing to a gold level player was pretty bad.

TLA was really great again, but next time, I would like if the guest has to play off-race from time to time :D

I do not deny nor confirm said stories in part 7.
However, I will say this. I wasn't asked to leave the bar, I went outside to look for a liquor store to get some cigarettes (which I just wanted a couple and felt I owed some to my friends who I bummed some off previously). And when I came back I was denied at the door.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

some pretty critical criticism guys. You realize this is a really fun event where we are supposed to mock the guests as a distraction right? The accommodation remarks and me being "cancerous" seem a bit overzealous.

Don't get me wrong I will take the fact that I am poisonous to this event under consideration but I feel like a lot of people "get it" whereas those that are like "this was so rude!" and "incontrol was trying to be a star too much" are missing the point

Yeah really, you where being funny rude. I laughed! Didn't seemed to notice that QXC was akward about you making fun of him. it's part of the joke.. I LoL'ed

Cause that what the show is a little about, Chill & Incontrol being rude!!!

Will bring in suggestions, ofcourse,

Try and fix the now everybody is talking moments. dunno how, but try something? maybe ask husky and HD.. lol...

Get a pro to micro in team melee and insult the macro player for doing horrible :D:D or maybe do these matches vs bronze players. to bad the show of a life time would then only be 1 hour.. 30 minute delay + a 30 minute show

And will end with some shout out to;
qxc for doing is homework and testing some BO before the TLA
chill & incontrol for giving us the show of a life time!
Dont think idra has even upgraded burrow on his boner

It took me a moment to find the search bar to see if anyone really did call you 'cancerous.' Don't worry about that too much. If you do anything interesting with a distinctive enough style, some people will like it and some people won't. I think that most of your audience enjoys listening to that sort of witty banter, and the reason you're drawing so much flack for it is for two reasons:

1. It made the guest uncomfortable.
2. It was, for most of the show, the only interesting thing going on.

There's lots of ways to fix both of those, and then all the problems people have will go away. I'd much rather think of something to work your style into the show than see you cut out. Despite all the negative feedback, the show was still very watchable (in large part thanks to you) and I don't think I'm alone in saying I'd hate to see the next episode without you.

i don't understand what people expect of incontrol. i mean no disrespect to nony or qxc but they aren't entertaining to listen to in the least bit. if incontrol wasn't there insulting ppl and making funny comments i would have stopped watching both TLA episodes after the first video.
if you don't like it... whacha gona do? bust a capslock in my ass?

Very well said. At this point SC1 TLA is very different from SC2 TLA. I don't think you can expect silly openings to work until you actually get some advantage. And for the most part, the difference between a pro SC2 player and a normal plat/diamond player isn't that big.
