I'm surprised they haven't blocked twitch. They blocked ustream, but nobody uses that.

Keep in mind that the blocked list is most definitely not exhaustive.

How are you staying awake, Lorning? In Belgium? Gotta be a giant stack of chocolate. Or possibly a collection of delicious beers. Just water right now, and this song on loop. Gets me euphoric for some reason.

Can't really argue with your taste in classic movie score music. TGTBTU soundtrack is pretty awesome.
Interesting tidbit, soundtrack related: remember that BWAAAH-BWAAAAAAAAAAH noise that Inception is famous for? You also remember that French song that they use to wake from the various dream levels? Turns out the composer took that French song and digitally manipulated it to create most of the score, including the massive Inception-noise. That's actually just the beginning buh-dum pattern of the song slowed down a bunch.

Unfortunately staying up isn't the issue, it's waking up for work in the morning

We'll see about that after my hybrid SC2/Tibet activism stream takes off.

I know she played minimum one match as PvX and another as ZvP.

Thanks for the clarification! Seems like she might have been messing with her first round opponent. I mean, given that she can wreck DRG with Protoss, I don't think Qualifier players are going to be a roadblock in that scenario.

she could have done Troll builds like Dragon's Troll Games and still qualified probably...

If I remember correctly she said she was thinking about playing P vs Z more regularly and wanted to try it out in a fun way in a qualifier.
