I know that the community has been harsh to Gretorp in the past but today he kinda annoyed me for the first time:
Why dropped Gretorp this pseudo fact about Socke beeing on Team "meine" or "mine" to explain his name? He has never been on such a team (nSK, pG, TAMM, DkH, Shuuk, a-L, attax as far as my research goes) so please don't make stuff up just to have something to say...
Besides that some awesome games today!
Quoted from Khaldor. I think Khaldor might know about the german scene, that or he LIED TO ME.

Screw the haters Gretorp... Keep bringing enthusiasm and actual progamer knowledge to the casts. I'd rather listen to someone who isn't experienced in casting but knows the game thoroughly than someone who knows nothing about SC2. Keep up the good work.

Hahah, dear god. Are you actually serious about NOT LIKING TYLER because he didn't type gg in a game? Seriously, I don't get what the big deal is, you get angry when you lose, thats it.
Besides, typing gg is a bit stupid if you didn't actually think it was a good game.

gg does not mean good game in a tournament setting....it means accepting defeat and in the tournaments like the GSL(because I'm talking about SC2 and not BW) you get Disqualified if you don't say GG.

Tyler was obviously really frustrated with his performance; I don't think he meant any particular disrespect to Socke. That being said I really didn't like Tyler's opening in game 3, I play terran so I don't know shit about PvP so feel free to set me straight but it seems like a defensive 4gate or 3gate robo would beat this. I think Tyler was hoping Socke had his forces out on the map or at least down his ramp. Protoss users comment on this build?

I think the rule is that typing anything = admitting defeat in the GSL if i'm not wrong.
IIRC, inca did not gg against fruitdealer in gsl 1 and received no penalty. He did apologize for it afterwards. He was knocked out by fruitdealer though so that might have been it. Not sure what will happen if you don't gg on first game of BOX but i think the rules doesnt say anything about it.

Read it from his fan club thread. Not sure if it's legit though.

Agree, gg is simply a formality for sportsmanship. Not saying gg is like walking off the court/field in any sports or other competitive event without acknowledging your competition. That may be passable for the average joe like you and me, but not acceptable for a professional who is representing a team. It reflects extremely poorly on Tyler and on the Teamliquid team. Yeah you're frustrated with yourself; don't take it out on your opponent. Take the .5 seconds to type gg and leave, even if you don't mean it, or want to.

I checked his fanclub thread I didn't see such a post,I mean he is trying to make sc2 a better game and I doubt hes gonna quit doing that.

"extremely"? It's just a player being frustrated in one of the many, many games he plays. Don't overblow things.

Tyler: "I just want to play Starcraft 1. Hey guys, let's all go switch back to Starcraft 1. I think that's a pretty good idea."
I just found the quote. I apologize if this is wrong and Tyler haven't ever said anything like that. Barkles didn't provide any source.

LOL NO shit! fuck! I missed it T_T
I looked at the date and im like can't wait for tomorrow, Boxer vs Zenio! Then I check the time 9:30 KST... lol o well.

Man the SC community is so uptight. So he didn't GG after a match. There's a huge difference between that and actively saying bad-mannered things to your opponent, and I think the SC2 community forgets that.

Tyler doesn't gg on several occasions (TSL2 final in one game/ TL Open semifinal once on the top of my head), cannot say I'm surprised. Though I don't think it's disrespect towards his opponents, I believe it's just frustration with himself.
I also think gg is like the handshake after a tennis match, you should just always do it.

Love betting against Tyler, easy liquibet points.

Just saw the idrA vs. mana match.
Dominant play. I can't wait until they hit the playoffs.

To beat this style from Zerg you really have to stretch yourself to the limits as Protoss. It's a very taxing style to play against because the Zerg just has to click and drop, whereas Protoss has to be constantly scanning his mini map and to have his probes hotkeyed or be very fast at switching to his nexuses.
One mistake can put you way behind in terms of economy.
Be quiet, you really dont understand how difficult it is to pull off a style like this (i.e its more than just click). And god forbid a protoss has to be good :O to win a game. You don't think zergs have to check their minimaps? Particularly in zvt...

zerg dont do drop they go mass army and 1a into FF and cry, plz idra plz sto those drop shenanigans :/
Whine... Shouldnt zerg to be able to enagage in a large battle? Or are they only allowed to play one style of dropping because if they do engage head on you spam endless forcefields. Toss also 1a - zerg doesnt have forcefields...

Typing anything else than gg is an auto loss for the specific match in the gsl unless I'm mixing it up with some other tournament. Not sure what the rules are for a series though. I can't imagine you lose the whole boX though just because you typed something. (maybe repeat offenders?)
