Sigh, if Jonneh can get over his obsession with me then we can have a decent thread. Speaks volumes that the vast majority of his posts on Teamliquid have been about me. I stand by everything I've said about IdrA, I've been far kinder to him than he's ever been to me and if anything the over-zealous and in some cases, downright crazy nature of certain members of his fanbase proves that his attitude rubs off on others. If I were just interested in the viewcount I might consider him, but as it stands, I'm interested in having a fun event that is as drama-free as possible and focussed on the actual game. Needless to say, a couple of bad apples are trying to derail that before it even begins. Is anyone surprised by that? They shouldn't be, it happens all the time. If you read I did explain to someone earlier why I chose to recently sign up and speak out about the issues surrounding you, mostly because I'm displeased with the baggage you bring with you in terms of drama. It seems like you've collided onto the scene and your ego has come into contact with that of your critics regularly. "Obsession" is a bit strong, I just don't like the current price tag to your participation in SC2 esports, which is that you argue with players and enrage haters who just want you to leave. I'd much rather have you here as a caster who appeals to your audience and doesn't bring out the worst in haters. As you say, a lot of focus on you isn't there? I don't see many posts attacking Day9, dApollo, mrbitter... catspajamas... why is that? Perhaps if you accepted such criticism in a genuine way, or even ignored it completely instead of arguing with people and engaging with haters, you wouldn't bring such drama clattering behind you like the dog with the cans tied to its tail (like I said earlier). So please, do go on sighing and blaming idra "fans" if you like, it really isn't the case here. I watched your youtube channel for a long while before I watched idra's SC2 career (though I watched him in sc1 a bit as well, not as much, I enjoy his sc2 zerg style a lot now more now than his sc1 terran). I was pleased when you took up SC2, but that quickly changed when the criticism some people levelled at your casting style was met with anger on your part. The fact of the matter is this situation is the situation you have instigated and developed between you and the community, and more specifically between you and idra. More particularly your attitude which attracts the ire of your critics. I just believe you'd do well to listen to what I have to say and extend the olive branch instead of dismissing it. Post it here, right now. "Idra, I know we've had our differences but I respect you as a player and would like to put the past behind us. If you're interested in being in shoutcraft 3 then hit me up on twitter or whatever, and even if you don't want to participate.. I wish you well and hope we can act professionally towards each other from now on." Or is there something hard about that for you? Is it pride? You've both earned my respect in your individual fields, and I think it'd go a long way towards earning you the respect of those making these threads and posts which you complain about.
You know, TL has a fully functional PM-system, perhaps you should try it?

Like the poster above me has suggested: use pm's, stop derailing this thread Jonneh. Its getting really annoying for regular people who are simply just interested in the tourney.

Jesus christ, you're writing essays and then disputing the obsession part?
I wish I had your free-time, oh the things I could do with it that wouldn't involve writing pointless diatribes on the forums.

Jonneh: Why dont you just host you own 2600 dollar invitational and invite Idra ?
OT: So are there any more players starting with S that hasent gotten an invite, hmm, Sjow !

@Jonneh
I don't think its relevant and judging by the posts in this thread the majority of the posters would agree; I'm pretty sure that about 90% of the people who visit the thread just want to check for announcements or express that they are psyched about the tournament; so please take your issues elsewhere (if you have such strong feelings about this please start your own thread, and there you can rant on in the company of like-minded individuals who actually care about the things you have to say; here it's not appreciated)

Sorry if the interest of an esports fan is offensive to you in some way. Personally I'd be quite flattered that someone is taking the time to try and resolve this issue, you could respond positively to it?
I'll assume that is a yes to the pride getting in the way part. Let the record show I tried eh?

Jonneh pls write some PMs to TB or other persons...you're spamming in this thread for 24h. don't take it personal, but you're a pain in the ass!

I've said a few times now; sorry if its offensive to anyone, but I really am just expressing my opinion here. I don't think discussing on a public forum is wrong in this case. It relates to the subject at hand.

Just stop fucking posting, you're making a fool out of yourself.
Looking forward to this! TB, pass Grubby an invite in exchange for an invite to his tournament

Jesus, fuck up already, 29 out of your 30 posts are about TB
OT: Great invites so far, hoping for Nerdio to take it all just like he did last time.

Please stop derailing the thread. This goes for everyone not just Jonneh.
Talk about the tournament, thanks.

@Jonneh leave the god damn thread already...We are all sick of your pointless ranting. We do not care what your opinion is, you have stated it 10 times already. You are doing nothing but derail a thread about a tournament so you can play out some personal issue you have with TB.
Thanks for setting up this TB, I'm excited to see the rest of the invites.
