EPTI'm sure it's been said, I don't feel like reading 100 pages but the reference at the end is to Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, I think!

I would compare this to my decision to cancel my law school plans even after being accepted. The investment is simply not worth the low chance of reward in an oversaturated market. There are scores of highly skilled progamers (and smart law students) who dedicate A LOT of time to the pursuit of success. The Koreans literally sacrifice their lives for Starcraft. I think it's can be a sign of intelligence and wisdom to change courses from a path you previously committed to. I think the more relevant point is that it is extremely difficult to have the same motivation when starting over in a new game. SC2 will be the third game that Jinro tried after BW and Poker. A lot of the BW players who were successful have motivation problems. The ones with more motivation are the ones who didn't taste much success. Jinro is obviously not a BW superstar like the Boxers and the Nadas, but he played both BW and Poker long enough that it was difficult for him to play SC2 to the same degree for a long time. | ||

Now i feel different though. He is clearly doing what he feels is best for him and i totally respect that. To me you're a legend Jonathan "Jinro" Walsh. Gl hf in whatever you do from now on! <3 | ||

At any rate, Jinro you will always have a fond place in my SC2 memories for carrying the foreigner banner for a while, for your increasingly awesome hair, and for just being a Swedish badass. Best of luck in the rest of your endeavors!! | ||
