Why can't Incontrol just stick to one of the two starcraft 2 chat/news podcasts, rather than ruining both for the (many) people who dislike him and get annoyed by him.

I used to like him as a personality, and I won't do an aggressive character assassination here, but he (and JP) must be aware that there are many people in this community who find his impressions and limelight hogging etc to be obnoxious.

I respect his right to be there, and that he has many fans - but if they want access to him there are ample oppotunities on the 'Inside the EG' podcast, and more than ever once he sets up at the EG house.

Personalities that people both adore and revile can only have a negetive effect on the show's success.


One of the most insightful and correct posts ever written, sorry JP, I'll give this episode a go but now Incontrols' back I'm done, obnoxious limelight hogging bullies is where I draw the line.
One, Inside EG podcast is enough.


The thing is, there are just a few of you people who don't like incontrol. Compared to the rest of the people who listen to SOTG, it is better to have him on, than to not have him on.


In YOUR opinion.
Nice cheese ....GG!

As opposed to yours? ^^

I like incontrol on the show because it seems a lot more relaxed generally (except when things get serious I guess) instead of just people taking turns to answer and no discussion about people's views

Great episode guys. So with Anna living in the house, I guess Ben is also allowed to bring people home? Would only be fair and helps him acclimate..

Awesome show! Great to have Geoff back!

Just have to make a little poke about the Dota2 thing though. The teams that will play for the money are currently playing in a closed beta and have done this for a very long time. At this very moment the game is probably already ready for release.

And ofc it's a markting thing, it's quite obvious - and it's smart. They'd have to spend shitloads of money on it anyways, and this spreads like a fire through the internet and to the actual crowd that they are targeting.

The big jump in prizemoney is comparable to SC2 and SC outside of korea. There were pretty much never any big money outside of korea, and suddenly there was a international tournament which had SIIIIIIIIICK prizemoney (which also dropped after the initial marketing value it had).

While I dont mind the buzz, it kind of felt like alot of ass pulling and bashing for very little reason

Anyway, <3

Wow I'd kinda gone of the new state of the game but great if incontrol is back. Always added a bit of a spark to the show Not that I don't enjoy the others, but I think its better balanced this way:D

More like a pretty clear majority if you read the pages since the last episode. I'm not a big fan of Incontrol but he brings a nice atmosphere to the show, not the boring crap which occured when he left.

It's good to have Geoff back on the show because he usually starts conversations with the other pillars, instead of just having JP ask a question and then they answer it. Glad to have him back :D
