Not gonna lie. THe most shocking thing to me when I saw this in the featured column was ret's PICTURE. I hope he visits the TL fitness thread and shares his secrets.

Don't people fucking know how to read these days. It's in the FIRST interview question....

Hi Ret, and welcome back! Where have you been hiding all these months?

Hey, thanks. I've had a great summer away from my computer! After returning from Korea, I had totally lost the will to play videogames, and focused on weights in the gym, tennis, the worldcup, and rebuilding friendships with old friends! So that's why I haven't been around.

Because "focused on weights in the gym, tennis" obviously says exactly everything you need to know to drop weight as dramatically as ret did in such a short period of time. Maybe if they had asked him why he's so good he'd give us another golden nugget like, "I play better than my opponent." I agree that people don't know how to read these days.

He is actually a frequent visitor of that thread so you could just search through the thread for his posts.

I actually was expecting this. The only thing is i might have to reconsider who s my favorite Zerg player in BW it was Ret, in sc2 Dimaga, now i have a dilemma.

"
Goossens stressed that rather than going after big names, Liquid` was always a team that focused on seeing the underlying talent in players and recruiting those it though would do well with the team. "

C'mon, you recruited TLO after he was pwning everyone left and right, as well as Haypro, who always was labeled as the best or 2nd best european zerg in SC2. Back in BW Nony was already the best P outside of Korea when he joined.
Nontheless i'm happy for the additions

Sick news!

But after reading the interview, it's nice to see that he's mannered up quite a bit and his opinions about SC2 have become significantly less retarded. I wonder how much of his former butthurt was in his excess weight? (It's a shame we'll have one less target for fat jokes now. At least we still have FantaPrime)


Retarded? What? I may have missed something there, but ret seemed to be having perfectly valid complaints about the game. Actually, it seemed he was one of the only top gamers daring to give his honest opinion about it, despite how much success and money he could've gotten since the release of the beta.

Actually, I was referring to this post, but I didn't want to point the finger directly. Our posts just coincided pretty badly

The only picture I've ever seen of Ret is the TSL drawing and even I was surprised.

Glad your head is back in the game and you're on the home team. WB. ^^
I hope Plexa's sig is right.

Thats not true at all at that point the only thing I accoumplished was 2nd place in the TLI.
And guess who invited me to that, eventhough I was a complete no-name in the starcraft community until then.
Nazgul gave me a chance to proof myself worthy and then asked me after I did
