TB don't do this in the forums, the lack of quality criticism that doesn't deserve your criticism.. Do your work and let the haters bitch about everything..

It this was payed they would be asking for free, if it was wheat and day9 they would be asking for tastosis, it it was bo3 they would be asking for bo5 etc.. etc.

you can't make everyone happy so just be glad most of us enjoy this.

arguing in TL forums is so 90s

His analysis is bad, but apollo is co-casting to give the analysis, and he gives a ton of it.

Apollo for the most part is doing a great job, that's why no one is complaining about it.

The irony in this statement is incredibly thick, though I doubt you're smart enough to grasp it. A strawman is a misrepresentation of someone's position and then an attack on said position, which is exactly what you just did and where the fallacy comes in.


Except I didn't attack your position, I changed the subject, therefore it was the ignoratio elenchi fallacy. Stop throwing out words you don't understand.

I overslept, missed the quarters, jumped to the last page of this LR and sees that a good caster is getting some shit. Not a good start on the day, guys. Not a good start at all.

A bunch of posts saying "thanks for the advice" would be pretty pointless. Telling people to shut up for being stupid is far more satisfying =P Don't you know how the internet works! Hate is always vocalised!

I can take criticism, I am pointing out that the criticism is shit. You think I or anyone else should sit here and thank people for posting dumb things on this forum? If you can't be constructive, then you are of no use. Amusing isn't it, how community members often think to post that I can't take criticism and yet throw up their hands in grave offense whenever I don't treat their comments as pure internet gold. They are the random, unjustified and badly written remarks of a spectator, after the game has finished.


The criticism isn't shit, multiple people in this thread have told you that Idra won those engagements pretty handily.

No wonder Idra thinks you're a shit caster. You have little knowledge and lots of ego.


Hahaha, once again the random forum guy strikes. You have no idea what my relationship with IdrA is or what he actually thinks.

Stop calling things that haven't happened, you and Apollo did it about 5 times in that last series.


Oh look, yet more useful feedback with no actual information. God LR threads are so amazing.


You called the death of the Hatchery multiple times before it happened, you called a warp in from the warp prism when he was at 200/200 anyway... you are too ignorant and stubborn to take any real constructive feedback on board.

He points out a specific issue with your post and you call him stupid. Not too pleasant to me.

Most of the criticism was pleasant at the start (albeit I should have been more specific), he just didn't have problems flaming anyone.

Didn't Idra say you were a horrible caster during IPL that led to some angry twitter tantrum?


We were drinking last night and laughing about the stupid things that get posted on forums. Apt considering.

I apologized in my second post and you ignored that and started flaming someone else. The only one getting offended here is you.

I could make a very detailed explanation of why I think Idra attacked and pulled back perfectly and never lost more resources than he could afford, but that is completely not the point of the argument.

"I could prove your criticism wrong but instead I'm just going to sit hear whining about how upset you've made me" And therein we come down to the entire crux of the problem I have with people like you.

Could someone who's opinion "counts" please just reiterate some points to him please? I get kinda tired of going through the cycle of below-par casting followed by threads full of feedback met with dismissive and flaming replies.

I'm prepared to be wrong about the way I see the game, but I do think the engagements were called totally incorrectly.

The casting was fine. Not perfect, but exactly in line with the quality these events usually have which is pretty good. Not every game can be cast by Tastosis. And just as importantly, even if Idra had already won it's the job of the casters to make a game seem as close as reasonably possible.

BUT, TB, coming into this thread and bitching out people watching an event is idiotic. I'm not saying they're right, I'm saying whether they're right or wrong you can do nothing but hurt yourself and the tournaments you cast with this behavior. Your value as a caster is directly linked to your popularity, and pissing off sc2 fans is just stupid. The only two casters who are unprofessional enough to come into threads and argue with fans are you TB, and Incontrol, and both of you receive incredibly negatives responses when you do so. Ignoring haters is the only acceptable response of a professional. Can you imagine a football caster getting into a pissing contest with a random fan? When a player gives fans the finger they get fined thousands of dollars for a reason. It reflects badly upon yourself, your team, and your profession.
