No it is to do youtube videos he said he was getting more time soon to do youtube videos so that time must be coming from SOTG! I doubt any of the other stuff is stopping soon. (If it did he might even have time for youtube and SOTG! )

I seriously doubt that, with a 2 hour podcast once a week it wouldnt make that much of a difference. With Inside the Game launching sponsered by his team, I would be willing to bet a fair amount that his team leaned on him to leave a show not sponsered by them.

All he really said about it was "Trust me I have good reasons"
"losers always whine about their best, Winners go home and fuck the prom queen"

I honestly am kind of excited for more state of the game. I like Geoff as a person, but he has too much of a "I must directly challenge you" method of engaging in discussions. Which is good sometimes, but it has begin to grate on me through some of the later episodes. While I appreciate that sometimes people need to be put on the spot, because it can reveal more to the audience. It also elongated a lot of conversations beyond their natural length and limited interaction from other sotg members with less forceful personalities.

For better or worse thanks for the run you gave us Geoff. I really do admire your tendency to always speak your mind. You gave us a lot of highs and a fair number of lows. But you definitely added a lot to the discussion. All and all a pretty good run.

No, he said that is a project that he would like to work on when he gets more time, not that he is leaving sotg for his youtube stuff.

And Destiny better not replace Geoff. That would be terrible

I really enjoyed sotg. I don't know when I first started tuning in, but it's been several weeks now... I think not having Geoff will make it less funny for me as I always liked the way Geoff approached questions.

Come back soon !

Ugh.. I know we're supposed to respect geoff and his choice but I have to ask.. why?

You mentioned it was because you are so busy, yet you choose Inside the Game over SOTG (sotg being the show that HELPED you get popular, the show that HELPED you become the figure you are now). Why abandon sotg? It just is a selfish act to me. No disrespect to Inside the game, but the show clearly is less fun and it gets less viewers. Every week on sotg you have a chance to influence sc2, hell.. you KNOW blizzard employees watch it. Why abandon that?

Whyyy?! D:D:D:

He was popular before sotg, at least in the scbw community...


Don't pretend that sotg isn't a major factor that contributed to where is right now. Geoff, the troll of scbw would never be throught of as a caster of the hundred thousand dollar organization that is NASL. Geoff, the hilarious quick witted pillar on sotg WOULD.

What i'm saying is.. because he has to get rid of ONE of these two shows to give him more practice time.. why abandon the one that helped get him to where he is now? The show will become less popular, because quite frankly geoff is the favorite host. It would be like Kramer leaving Seinfeld mid season.

I just want geoff to consider this.. hopefully we will see him on sotg in the future.

Yeah because mimicking and impersonation automatically means he is being racist. I guess Frank Caliendo is being racist against all black people when he does Chris Rock impersonation or I guess Racist against old white men when he does a John Madden impression. Seriously, you have to be kidding.

The difference is that when he is on ITG he is actually contributing to a show that helps EG as an organization and is more focused/shorter episodes.


While that is true, it also created alot of resentment for EG. Maby in the long run its gonna be good for them, but right now I know im not alone at being really upset with them for messing with the best show in sc2.

I wouldn't consider him a pillar though. He doesn't have much history.

hiatus for 2 weeks~? oh man this sucks we lost geoff and i have nothing to listen to while im at work sad panda = (


after tonights episode, a two week hiatus doesn't bother me at all. compared to the last drunk cast, this was a failure. I'm going to miss geoff, but if this was the only episode someone saw with him.. they wouldn't know why.

I'd bet more that there is no one that would convince Geoff to do something he didn't want to do himself.

I was pretty critical of Leah to begin with.. but she did start to open up and contribute more towards the TV discussion... so props to that.

But overall it was a pretty lacklustre episode. Just didn't have the omph that I was hoping it would... got all hyped up from the other drunken episode.

it's actually not a bad idea...although the level of discourse about the game is typically above his level of expertise I would think. He's certainly articulate and entertaining enough though.

i dunno incontrol disagrees with you on this topic as well, he admit it was wrong so make fun of native americans


He has to say that because of the position he is in. How does that actually hurt Native Americans? It was meant to be a joke and an impersonation, just like TotalBiscuit and KellyMilkies, the only difference is that Incontrol gets a ton of flack by hypersensitive people in the community that don't like him in the first place.

That is the only discussion she should have been in on to be honest. Bashing the devs and interrupting the pros got pretty annoying. She doesn't really have the same level of knowledge that IdrA, Tyler, Day9, Incontrol, or even Destiny have on subjects pertaining to SC2.
