"go ahead and". Maybe its so common in the US that the majority of people don't hear it. None of the players ever just do something, they "go ahead and do it". Why bother making a drone, when you can go ahead and make a drone? Losing to a baneling bust too boring? Go ahead and lose instead.

I'm waiting for someone to change their mind about an attack and move their army back to their base, and Tasteless or Artosis comments "He's going to go ahead and go back".

Very true. Maybe it is an American thing - they seem to use the wrong tense all the time. Not just "go ahead and", but also "is going to be"... no, it's not "he's going to be spawning at the 12 o'clock", he actually has *already* spawned there at the 12 o'clock.

Husky has even opened a game with "so the map is going to be Metalopolis, and CellaWerra is going to be spawning as the red zerg, while HuK is going to be spawning as the blue Protoss". Arghh!!

This is perhaps not relevant, but why does Tasteless pronounce rather as "raw-thur" instead of "rah-thur"? He does it almost daily, and it has been bothering me. D:

Day[9] does the same thing. I blame the family. It's the one word that makes me raise an eyebrow every time he says it.

"15 mutas are making..."

NO ARTOSIS. The mutas are NOT making #()$*&#. They are either being made, being produced, or about to pop any second now. Very few units in this game actually make anything...

Overused by Tasteless: "Sorry". Sometimes in combination with w00ps: "woops, sorry". Happens like 15-25 times a show.

"I think he may have overextended himself" - Tastosis
"[...] the one and only, [...]" - Tasteless trying to time the announcer at the start of a GSL game.

They both annoy the hell out of me.
Blah.

'Oh my god', 'tempo-based play'


If someone starts a drinking game where you take a shot every time someone says "tempo", Artosis needs to use this free name change and call himself Cirrhosis because he would be the number one cause of said liver condition.

HD: "Hold that thought"

Its ok for Tastosis since they are two and its kinda polite and a good transition (yay) into somethin urgent. But for HD it's just schizofrenic.

Has "Metagame" been mentioned? It seems to me that the wrong use of "Metagame" in the sense of "strategy", "standard strategy" or just "game" ("the metagame keeps changing" = "the game keeps changing") has increased since Tasteless has resumed teaching it every single day.

Also: It's vespine gas, not vespian.

bump The one that was previously just made got closed because "we've had this thread a million times before" so I figure we keep the one with 26 pages and the official one going.

lol this thread is still relevant. One thing that bothers me most about casters is when they go on and on about how excited they are because they can't think of anything to say and are trying to fill time. Don't tell us you're excited, tell us WHY you're excited so we can get excited too!

The other thing is when casters to the casting equivalent of saying "umm" by emphasising verbs in a sentence that have no business being emphasised, like "is" or "can."

"Boxer IS making helions out of his factory so that he CAN harass!"

those are the words with the least meaning in the entire sentence, stop emphasizing them!
