Keep it out of the LR, thanx. Nice to see some terran get the timings right against Z on a large map. | ||

So if MKP was under the impression that Sen was Japanese, then he's justified to insult some random progamer from there? I'd be kinda upset if I was Sen and that was the case, especially after just losing to him. | ||

Like i said no 1 is your own opinion you assume that you think mkp thinks sen is jap your other points are vague and childish. no need to even talk to you anymore about this. | ||

This is due to the fact that Japanese education board just announced that Japanese middle school textbook is going to say that the island is illegally inhabited by Koreans. Are they still doing that?,.. last time i heard they were pretending they didn't do anything wrong to Koreans or the Chinese int heir textbooks... Every country's textbooks white-wash history. Especially asian countries that are highly nationalistics like Korea, Japan, Taiwan, China Japan only gets shit about it because they are on the same level as Western highly-developed nations. The United States recognize heavily now in textbooks and history classes all the wrong doings they did especially to the Native Americans. The Japanese have not even with many people still remembering all the terrible things they did to Koreans and Chinese. (comfort women, horrible science experiments, etc.) | ||

This x10. And esports can be replaced by sports. Are you kidding me? International sporting events have so much more meaning when politics comes into it. See: Jesse Owens in 1936 Berlin Olympics, 1980 USA-USSR hockey game, etc.. | ||
