I think if he'd done the F1 style thing with the champagne he would have just sprayed it into a load of fans sat down in front of him.

The bigger question is why anyone would want to sing the national anthem in schools. o.O I think it's kind of cool that you guys don't. I had to listen to the national anthem or do the flag salute every school day for 12 years. It was silly. I like America but my feelings fall far short of that sort of patriotic fervor.

Embarassing for Polt. But go Thorzain!

Stephano has been dethroned by Thorzain on the TLPD foreign ranking after what? 7 months in a row of 1st place? As a big Stephano fan I dont mind Thorzain really deserves this. It was also getting abit sad that the only player who can win tournaments and compete vs the best korean got to offer are Stephano but now we also got Thorzain. So it is possible to not goto korea and still be succesfull but very very rare lets hope this wins inspire some more foreigners to belive its possible Ive never seen Thorzain beating Stephano . In fact i d say ive only seen Stephano litterally rape Thorzain so hard that putting him before Stephano is totally dumb imo Thorzain is 7-9 vs Stephano in competitive games. Thorzain is very smart and understands how Stephano plays better than most Terrans imo. His depth of knowledge about small details is pretty astounding actually.
4wins were from 2011, 2/3 of 2012 were on shakuras ~~ But well i like Thorzain so i give up (x

This thread is teaching me alot about sweden.
Edit: also, gg thorzain, you almost made me cry today. I never cry.

Haha, are you serious? First of all, Swedes are absolutely patriotic but it has a time and a place. Putting flags on every building and waving them around whenever like in some countries is pretty retarded.
And second of all, have you been outside sweden? The immigrant population in Sweden is not particularly high, maybe compared to denmark or something but not to Germany or the UK and least of all the US.

TLPD Korea shows 11-10 TvZ on the currently used version and International shows 582-514 (53.1%). We're hardly dealing with some horrifically bad map for Zerg.

And then again, this whole thing has just been blown out of proportion. I myself (I come from a foreign background + I'm a muslim) and most people i know that come from foreign backgrounds sang the national anthem in elementary school and I also went to church during the semester endings (Happens slightly before chrismas and summer break, right?). Now I'm from Gothenburg (which is the 2nd biggest city in Sweden) and I've still not met anybody who has a foreign background and did not have to sing the national anthem when he/she was in elementary school.

Huh? The only caster at MLG I really like is Artosis, but most of the others are terrible or average at best.
Amazing event by Dreamhack once again. The first day was a bit boring, but today was fucking awesome!

God damn school work made me miss this... Thorzain finally taking another big win, and doing it in his home country where everyone was cheering so loudly for him is amazing. So pissed that I had to miss it, and I don't feel like watching VODs when I know the result.
