Also, sorry to the folks who didn't enjoy my casting today. I'm the back-up, I work full time on the social stuff haha. I might be back in better shape for HotS though.

I though you did fine, it was perfectly listenable, and thb thats all I expect from a caster thats not Artosis or Apollo.
because as a die-hard Slayers fan, beating Liquid is probably going to be a lot easier than beating Startale! Easier path to the finals and for our revenge match against IM! Oh god, I'm so opportunistic and Machiavellian!
LOL! *low toned wise voice* "The fanboyism is strong with this one..."
That's quite an understatement. My condition is terminal

-_- Liquid doesn't do that. Most of the people that update the liquid stuff don't know about results that haven't aired yet.
I can usually tell from the enthusiasm from the tweets though. Especially for the Tajea all kill they were all going nuts before and during the games, even though it looked like certain defeat.

From yesterday's thread
On July 26 2012 10:01 Liquid`Nazgul wrote: This speculation on whether or not we win based on tweeting is really annoying. I guarantee you there is nothing there to be found, ever. Tree-hugger our news writer has the specific task to hype up matches for certain leagues (IPLTAC3 clearly being one of them) with a newsthread on www.teamliquidpro.com and a thread on reddit. This will always happen regardless of our result. You can look back for like the past 20 or whatever team matches we have played (long period) and they will all have been hyped up win or lose.
As for the twitter that is typically done by someone who has not seen our matches. The majority of the time you see our twitter being active during such a match it is simply because someone available to do that job happened to be watching. Since he has no idea on whether we win or lose it is meaningless to speculate what the result will be based on twitter activity.
I take a lot of pride in doing things the right way and I will never tell a guy not to promote a match because we lost. If promotion is lacking it is for other reasons. If this lines up with a loss, so be it, but that is just going to be random chance.

Fatalism doesn't do anyone any favors. In whatever I write for TL, I try to be upbeat until it really is over. Also, we always try to make sure we have someone who does not know the result doing the tweets.

I kind of got this feeling from the tweets from Prime v TL. But okay thank you for the information and good luck v Startale!
And Kennigit, that well thought out post made me see the error of my ways. Next time you could be a bit more politer and explain like treehugger did instead of calling people idiots and then posting that 6 second video.
A great day for Startale. I hope they celebrated after winning. I hope this helps them in terms of their confidence in team leagues. Prime was their biggest demon to be slain.
I echo a lot of others in the thread, I think Startale v. Liquid is going to be a great match, both teams seem to be on an upswing. I'm eager to see how Startale handles Taeja.
Ah man, sometimes I think Hack is the best terran on ST and then he loses and Bomber plays great.
Then I think Bomber is the best on ST and he loses to someone average in a qualifier and Hack makes it through.
As a side note: good to see Curious starting to stack up more results. I've underestimated him for far too long, I actually want to see him finally make a run people will get hyped about.
