The only thing going against him is that he has not engaged in tournament play or the professional circuit at all (so he couldn't be involved in the fun behind the scenes talk of MLG and such), even though I am sure he could do quite good if he had the motivation. He is going to Blizzcon though, so I am looking forward to see what comes out of that.  I am sure he would be a GREAT guest on the show, and he certainly knows his zerg. I believe PsY was invited to HDH2 and I think that might be his first big tournament. As far as his personality goes, from listening to his youtube commentaries he seems very laid back and can get silly. He mentions Day9 a lot and I think he might be a fan of his, so having them both do the same podcast could provide some entertainment. @JP if you need help looking up PsY here's his link to his youtube channel which has links to his facebook and other stuff. http://www.youtube.com/user/PsyStarcraft Also, love the shows, the last one was the best by far. iNcontrol and Day9 together we're amazing. | ||

Geoff (iNcontrol) has plans for tomorrow night and will be traveling all weekend long and Sean hasn't gotten back to me about attending. I don't want to force a show with three new guests not knowing how well the show flow will go so I have decided to postpone this weeks episode till next week. Sorry about this everyone -- thanks for your support in the mean time. I guess some good news is that iNcontrol has agreed to be a regular guest on the show so right now every week you (should) expect myself, iNcontrol, Day9, and Nony with a fifth spot serving as a rotating chair. Nony / iNcontrol might do some swapping only to get in a Terran and Zerg user every show but I can't promise anything. Artosis is insanely busy with GSL right now and I havent had a chance yet to reach out to other Zerg users. Feel free to give any suggestions for guests. I know a lot of people have suggested PsY but I have never listened or spoken with the guy so I am not sure if his personality will mesh well with everyone -- I'll investigate further though!  I've really enjoyed these and I'm glad you're going to keep making them. Just make sure you're future guests aren't afraid to make comments for fear of being dubbed a whiner.  Future amusing guests for the rotating 5th spot could be: djWheat, Torch, Spunky (of oGs, pretty sure he speaks English), Nazgul or Jinro, it would be great to get someone who has first hand GSL experience on the show, though time zones might be a problem. edit: btw never get rid of iNcontrol! That guy cracks me up to no end. | ||

Have you tried contacting Chill? I think he'd definitely "mesh well" as he's already done casts and such with Day9 and iNc. | ||

If you want, there is an interview of him, it might be a good place to investigate ^^ http://www.youtube.com/user/PsyStarcraft#p/search/2/30P9fWu2zqU - Part 1 http://www.youtube.com/user/PsyStarcraft#p/search/3/uabTaUIiQYM - Part 2 | ||

He's no newbie and he adds a lot to any show, especially with these guys. See if he's interested | ||

Chill is a pretty casual player. I wouldent say he doesent know anything about sc2 tho. Although im basing this on his iccup record. A B player cant be that bad at sc2, Im a chill fan tho so i may be bias | ||

Diggity is just getting active in SC2 casting again and if you ever could find someone who would be able to discuss the transition from SC1 to SC2 its the guy who has been casting games since before most of us even watched competitive starcraft. The main is the outright best English commentator that SC1 has ever seen and as he transitions to SC2, I'm sure it will continue. I personally would vote against PsY. He voices his opinions plenty enough on the channel, and he has done little to show that he is the same caliber as the other guests. | ||

Also, looks like we've nailed down a day each week we can guarantee a show on. More on that in a couple of days. Thanks for the support. | ||

On top of that he's really articulate and funny ;P Regarding Chill, I dunno. At Weapon of Choice he never seems to have much of a clue on higher Starcraft 2 playing and I mean, no wonder. He doesn't play much at all and doesn't follow a lot competitive gaming right now it seems. Nontheless he often has interesting points. | ||

Lets put it this way...it's a podcast...and people listen to podcasts to hear opinions...the listeners download to hear interesting opinions and discussions above all else...the caliber of the player doesn't even come into it. Now episode 8 was a very good example of an episode where it lacked personalities...I like NonY but I mean it showed you just can't throw any SC involved people in and above all else you have to make sure they know they have to talk, discuss stuff and not just lay back and be obtuse with opinion and discussion... It is sort of like that program Wife Swap...the makers match the families against those they feel will clash and have bust up's! That is entertainment... There is a reason why people are nominating Psy for the cast...because they know he has personality in abundance...he won't shy away from giving his views and speaking up...and maybe just maybe we might actually get an episode where we can get different opinions into the mix rather then a bunch of people all singing the same tune Again Episode 8 will forever be the barometer of what not to do... Oh and I still remember when Artosis was on during the beta and was QQ'ing about tanks and shit! Still makes me lol today! | ||
