Remember guys; no caster bashing, balancing whining or player abuse - you guys should know this by now! |

I'm not a huge fan of him as player, but I respect what he does for eSports and his efforts he put into the game.
ye idk if people are butthurt because of him staying in MLG champ bracket but it's never been his fault, the guy has always been one of the most pro-ESPORTS personalities on the scene...

Pizza is quite healty and low on fat (not as healty as rice, but whatever), unless you eat some kind of very oily pizza (that here are popular in the inner part of tuscany for example) or pizza full of lard, but then you shouldn't blame it on the pizza.
Maybe you're confusing it with focaccia or schiacciata (doesn't know the name of those in english sorry) that have oil in them, but pizza by itself is basically bread (with slightly less water usually and a different growing method). You got it all wrong, sorry. First of all, regular rice that you buy in the supermarket is not healthy since it's completely void of nutrients. Secondly, it's not the fat in the pizza that you should be afraid of if you wanna lose weight - it's the bread. Cut down on processed carbs, eat quality food and don't be afraid of natural fats (even saturated) and you'd be slim in no time. Fats are not what's making you fat, lol. They just happen to share similar names that's all. Sorry for OT! Processed carbs are bad just if you have a shitty lifestyle. This conception of "carbs being bad for you" is stupid and come from a lot of misunderstandings. Do sport all the time and you see how carbs are bad for you. They are essential, just they get converted in fat if you don't consume them, but the same is true even of basic sugar, and basic sugar has the added problem that it make you more likely to develop diabetes and, ironically, make you more likely to have low blood sugar (due to insuline overproduction). Protein are also worse because of their long-term effect on the liver and on the kidneys and also because they usually come from meat, meaning heart problems and all the likes that derive from that (and Protein too get converted into fats, fun fact, everything get reprocessed as Fat if you don't burn enough calories). Fat are not considered bad per se, just that if you have problem with a sedentary life style, fat are really the last things you want to eat, and usually you never are short of fats in a westerner diet (oil and butter are everywhere). Of course, if you have an active lifestyle, even animal fats are recommended in small doses (because they improve the grow of the muscles, i'm not sure this is a real medical fact, but in the sport industry is like a mantra and you see people on the internet suggesting that all the time in BB forums). Rice is usually considered more healty than pasta or bread because of the smaller packs of carbs they have compared to pasta, making it more easy to digest and thus lighter on the body. It isn't the base food of most athletes for a reason. I don't see how you can say "most of the rice you find is void of nutrients". I have one pack under my eyes now and it has almost the same raw values of pasta, 80 % of carbs, 5% of prot, no fat of rice against 75 % of carbs, 11% of prots, 1% of fats of pasta. I'm not an expert on rice however, i eat it rarely and i have little knowledge on the various kind of it. Seriously, if you consider pizza unhealty you could directly not eat anything but white rice and boiled vegetables, good job you optimized your diet but you live the shittiest life i could imagine.
ok so sheth won?

Yes it does, but women are unfortunately hurting e-sports.

This makes no sense If you played Brood-War you have to be at least 21... can't imagine so many Kids in SC2. Maybe if you started from the beginning of BW, but even then a lot of kids played BW when they were like 10 years old. There's a lot of sc2 pros under 21, some even as young as 14. In fact I'd believe a lot of people if they told me the majority of sc2 pros were under 21 so fans should be no different.
Also, just in general the sc2 scene takes on a lot of non BW followers as the international BW scene (pre sc12) vs. the international sc2 scene are vastly different in size.

lol at Painuser saying "We are back online! <Crowd cheers> ... after this 30 minute shut down."

People seem to be assuming that gamers and Esports fans are mutually inclusive, I would imagine the average Esports fan to be older than the average gamer.

Well it is in New Jersey =p.
Seriously though I'm surprised they can't get a bigger crowd. Atlantic City isn't *that* far from the nearby major cities (NYC, Philly, Baltimore, ect). I mean compared to MLG Anaheim and NASL finals, which were really only accessible to Southern Californians (albeit it was really close for them), you'd think they could draw a crowd much easier.

What version of Crevasse are IPL using? Looks like the first ever version.
This happens more than you'd think when an entire team of bronze league admins set out to decide map pools.

The thing is, I bet the majority of team liquid members NOW are newcomer sc2 players under the age of 21.

Well tbh the first 2 days of ipl aren't really worth going to. If it was im my area i would be there on sat/sun for sure.

|
lolwtf marine splitting lmao

If you build it, they will come.
Unless you build it in a casino that is isolated from any significant fanbase community and then deny access to a large portion of that same fanbase by having a 21 year age limit.
