People large and small are entitled to vent, IMO.

yeah, stand up and just shout out to everyone how it's not your fault? even if he'd be right about the computers, I'd still assume that he and Polt played from pretty much the same setup, so equal chances.

if there was a legit issue with the PCs he could have at least said "gg polt, tough day for me but i'm looking forward to MLG" and then made a second tweet saying sth like "unfortunately i was having difficulty with some of the equipment, but i still want to focus on playing better next time". you can handle problems in a classy way whether you're frustrated or not. still the best way would be to address these things in private instead of whining about external factors after you lose a competition

yeah, that's my point.

tbh it's more rude to red bull than to polt. everyone knows polt is better than huk, so basically what huk is saying is "pfft, competing here was shit because they messed up their equipment and it wasn't good enough for me, hope MLG is a real tournament!" just really bratty.

At least he played two matches in a best of three. Some people lost an entire best of five to Polt after one game.

What does this reference?

Idra.

Nvm - It is right it was Naniwa the man who stopped playing Polt. But something happened with idra too in his last tourney, i don't remember exactly what, but involved some bitching too.

IdrA gg'd against Polt with 200 supply.
he made the comment which got him fired in the aftermath of the match

so, Polt retierd two of the most bm (and successfull) players in sc2 history

That was on Daybreak, when Polt dared to fire a seeker missile into a brood lord. Idra rage quit (well, no surprise up to this point), then went full "i get paid to insult you little fucks" (freely quoted) in a TL thread, was banned from TL and from EG.

Her zvz is really strong, but theres literally no other choice. She isn't going to eliminate major until she has to just like polt wouldn't to violet. I'm really curious why there's so many people thinking otherwise

pro sports in general, really

but game of thrones is now here to challenge their market


I think the TV show sucks, especially this past season but the books are very good.


The TV series has always been over-rated, IMO. The books are good though, at least until Feast for Crows.


aFfC is noticeably weaker than the rest but I still think its good relative to most books. It's just dull imo.


Yeah, I stopped reading the series at the point. I feared GRRM was doing a Robert Jordan and losing control of his story (heck it was originally intended to be 3 books). I hear Dance with Dragons is good, so I may get back into it. But, given the expansion of the story and characters, I'm not sure that I care enough anymore.


Would you say that the entire series would be worth reading, or just a little bit, or barely worth reading if I have something better? I've been looking to get into that (thanks to peer pressure) but don't really know.


Difficult to give advice on a series of books to another.

But, if pressed, I'd say that I recommend the series, but I don't strongly recommend the series. There are better reads.

GOT is about 3 1/2 stars out of 5 for me (in SC2 LR terms).


I generally don't give ratings on books. I just give recommendations based on what I know about the person and their taste. If you told me other books/movies/tv/anime/comics you've read/watched I can give you a decent idea of how much you'll like it.


No, me either. But, he asked and I didn't want to dodge the question. Like I said, I'd recommend GOT but not go OTT about it.

It's best to know others' tastes before recommending books. But, it can be difficult, even then. Mine tends to be somewhat eclectic - my last few books have been Patrick O'Brian, Jane Austen, a historical account of the Wars of the Roses (fascinating I have to say - even if all the names are confusing) and a couple of Agatha Christies. Patrick Ness is next.

The last Fantasy I read was Abercrombie's First Law series which was a very good read.


Based on that you'd probably like:

Manga
Historie - about Eumenes, one of Alexander the Great's generals
Vagabond -usashis journey to become the greatest swordsmen in Japan
Vinland Saga -Vikings

Non-fiction
Musui's Story - The autobiography of a Samurai who lived in the Tokugawa period

Fiction:
The Maltese Falcon by Hammett



Thanks.

Seeing Vinland Saga - Vikings (good pick!) reminded me that I'd also recently read "The Long Ships" by Bengtsson. It was a very good read, even if I thought the first half of the book was better than the second. I don't know what your tastes are, but if you are inclined that way, you might enjoy it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Long_Ships
