Welcome to LiquiScoop, the #1 weekly newsletter for everything that goes on in the Teamliquid.net forums! Here you'll find notable threads, notable posters, and some fun original content as well.
A big thanks to IntoTheWow and dronebabo for their tireless help, as well as Oxy and Smurg who do all the great photoshop work for us. Without them, LiquiScoop would not happen. Enjoy!
We're back! We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving Break, perhaps excitedly looking forward to the next new LiquiScoop. If this does accurately describe what you were excitedly looking forward to, then you are in luck because that is exactly what you are reading right now!
Also, I'd like to formally apologize to Live2Win for forgetting to include his icon in the Icon-Staff Match Game. Live2Win, I promise, I will make it up to you.
Also, we are announcing something HUGE for next week's LiquiScoop: + Show Spoiler +
LIVE2WIN RULES!!!
Week of 11/20/06 to 12/03/06 [015]

Crusade against Homework Threads
We have won. The past two weeks have seen a substantial drop in Homework Threads, to the point of having virtually no presence at all in the General Forum. I salute you, crusaders, for your devotion and courage. Disband and return to your farmlands, but be ready to trade your plowshares for swords for the next crusade.
Each week, we at LiquiScoop find one thread from the Closed Forum. These threads are diamonds in the rough, underappreciated secret threads that the Mods did not want you to see. They will now get their well-deserved time in the spotlight. Unfortunately you can't post in them, but you can view them, jaws agape in utter awe, mouth salivating in anticipation at what hidden treasures the Closed Forum will yield next week.
This week's OCFTotW is titled "What is Rundll32 ??" Click to find out what happened after the topic creator deleted this mysterious file.
Ban of the Week
This week's honor goes to Rekrul, who banned AND nuked 3threal[EoC] due to his idiocy here and here Take a look at 3threal[EoC]'s post graph, can you guess roughly when he was banned? + Show Spoiler +
LiquiScoop Fanmail of the Week
Our fans seek the wisdom of Bubbles, the LiquiScoop Warrior Monkey.
Unfortunately, since Bubbles has been banned and due to our hiatus, there is no fanmail this week. Fanmail will make its return next week, where the LiquiScoop staff will attempt to give advice on anything you guys want. Ask away!
The Ekii card and graph of 3threal's post count cracked me up. XD Voted for increase in more interactive content, by the way. I'd definitely enter another haiku contest or whatever. Competition is what this game was built on and it's fun!
Absolutely LOVES the starleague series. At this rate, you'll be able to make a real card game. Add in nuances (min cost, gas cost), proleague team bonuses, etc. xD
dont understand the ekii card, just know he was some annoying PGT mod that whined about getting kicked off the mod team and made thread complaining about it every week.
I mean I get, oov and july, but how the hell were you guys so intuitive to design a card for, "sense of star"?? the ability card. I have to confess(though I think I did already). I get truly jealous of TL in moments like this.

that's the joke
ahk-gosu was bragging around he could beat a pro, but really wasn't something special and got stomped by Tfeign, hence the card

what did he do on TL?
He was a replay admin for about 2 days and uploaded 200000 crappy reps (basically went on ygclan or whatever, downloaded all the reps and uploaded all of them onto tl net), hence the mediocre replay tokens.
Oh wow hahahaha what a great week of LiquiScoop. All the photoshops were very well crafted, especially the cards! I'm glad the Homework Crusade worked, and that justice is delivered to the posters that deserve to get banned. Thanks for making my day brighter after a grueling day at school.
