What called my attention is that everytime some player cast forcefields, DAy9 say "nice forcefields there", even if the forcefields arent that good.
But hes a very good and competent caster, just needs a little bit more polish.

Can we do something to make sure casters know that the past participle of 'to cast' is 'cast.'
Hence: 'will be cast' not 'will be casted!'

Also, decimate means to reduce by one tenth; not a good result if you're attacking someone.

This thread depresses me to no end. I really hope the commentators do not take this criticism to heart because it is worthless.

Seems like most people here want to create some standard mold that commentators are supposed to fit and not deviate from, how extremely boring. I love husky's crazy commentaries where he throws in a comment about "Do overlords sleep? Would they get blown away if it is windy?" or HD that use his catchphrases like "terrible terrible damage!"

Even though Day9's "very creative play" annoys me sometime, I realize that it is just his flavour and if I dont like it I can just quit watching.

Casters: Take this thread with a few kilo of salt. You got popluar doing your thing, don't change it now. Don't fix a bike that aint broken.

maybe not in germany.

anyway, this thread serves little purpose. everyone has their own individual quirks, and i think casters should keep saying everything as they are now. those who most people generally like, will be popular, those who people dont like, will be phased out.

You do realize that it's a commentator and caster who started this thread because he believes that criticism can lead to improvement?

You know what depresses me to no end? That people won't cease putting forward that incredibly lame, incredibly empty, incredibly wrong "If you don't like it you can go some place else" all-purpose defense which will spell the end of all criticism, all discussion and all controversy and will lead to an extremely boring world where there will be some agreement and a lot of very uninteresting silence. Please, please stop it.

Thats one of the definitions its much more commonly used in its other forms though.

1. To destroy or kill a large part of (a group).
2. Usage Problem
a. To inflict great destruction or damage on: The fawns decimated my rose bushes.
b. To reduce markedly in amount: a profligate heir who decimated his trust fund.
3. To select by lot and kill one in every ten of.

Awesome used to mean something fearful and not good at all but you wouldnt say somebody was wrong for saying thats awesome dude unless you were my gran.

I have no problems with the repetitions or catch phrases. But I do tend to pick up the errors they do.

Like in one of the recent Day[9] casts: "They did reduce the Sentry's damage from 6 to 8." :D

But I will miss it if HD dosen't say "Terrible, terrible damage" or Day[9] says "Awesome" at least once or twice a game. ^^
