Great tournament though

He died in 2009. Kids start watching TV early. Basically anyone born before 2005 can still get this reference

Thanks for another tournament Rifkin. Your work is always so good. You do so much. And you are totally not cocky or into yourself or obnoxious or annoying or lacking game knowledge or anything. What a great man.

When exactly do generations begin and end? It's a question for the ages

How many sub-5 year old Starcraft fans do you think we have in our community?

haha i was just wondering if europeans even know who billy mays is? it's a hilarious reference but it should probably be explained... wasn't he exclusive to american/north american television? (i know he became an internet meme too but...)

Great tournament though

I don't think he's that well known in Europe, I only heard of him through South Park... Do kids even watch TV nowadays with Netflix and torrents and whatnot?
