I was saying that HE did a favor to MLG by casting this more than MLG did a him a favor by having him cast.

During a quakecast James "2GD" Harding made a joke about MLG having stream issues and he was not used to that cause he was used to work with dreamhack. This joke was made after some skype issues that they had.
MLG then decided to kick 2GD from the call and go on without him.
If they would have ignored it no one would have remembered the joke but now MLG kicked him and will get shit for booting people who makes any negative comments about MLG

Blizzard wasn't running WCG though, to be quaint, in many events, casters have made the reference to "LAN for SC2" during a live SC2 event, but Blizzard never stopped them from making these casts.
However, if 2GD was making fun of WCG, who knows what would of happened.
MLG is doing the respectable thing, if anyone knows anything about Quake and QL, Slasher is behind all this and 2GD was doing it for Slasher's request probably (my guess).

Oh so you see the difference here. 2GD bashing blizzard and their game at WCG isn't the same as him bashing MLG on a MLG stream.

2GD made a quick joke on technical difficulties "Now I've had the MLG experience, didn't have this happen at dreamhack" after commentary was lost.
MLG booted him from stream.
Debate on forums.
Some people that didn't get the joke are raging and defending MLG generally being humourless bastards.
Some people that got the joke and are bit annoyed that MLG is being lame and chose to do something else.
Most people here don't care since it's not SC2.
I died in LoL and am posting here. Most people here it seems are super serious, I don't think people laugh much in USA sometimes.

Did i miss the sc2 casts already or will they still come?

@Rakaka:
2GD: They presented everything with my name without my confirmation. MLG sent no information about the tournament or plans, just a link to ESReality. I asked when I would show up for the mic and sound check. They did nothing, we tested nothing says 2GD.

i liked the previous episodes of sc center more.. they were just more casual which was really cool i think... this was a kind of imposed imo... and i have a feeling sotg will be the same from now on...

I turned off the stream. Only wanted to watch Quake because 2gd was casting but since MLG couldn't take a very lighthearted joke about their company there was no reason to watch. Didn't they know who they invited to cast beforehand lol?
