Chat seemed to know him o_o www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/n1jut/a_year_off_going_pro_update/ One of the few people commited to going pro that actually became good. He also had a 1 base robo pvz guide. He also never responded when I asked him for practice games a long time ago. Luckily it appears I was blessed with the sexier voice to make up for it. | ||

No one is arguing whether SOTG is in the wrong, but whether it's worth to risk the brand you represent towards a show that at least 8.5k people like. You need to ask yourself whether you want to be known as "the guy who runs that awesome tournament with koreans" or "the guy who bitches non stop at SOTG" This is because I really like you and what you do, others may just unfollow outright. Justified criticism is bad, got it. | ||

A short summary of the questions: @ Day9- you have a monopoly on the informative/teaching stream genre. Thoughts? How did you make the decision/what steps did you take to turn this hobby into a job @Tyler- Seems like the only thing holding you back from being a top player again is your drive to mass up games and practice at the same level you used to in SCBW. What will it take to get you back there? @Artosis- Now with a child, do you find that your personal space is ever invaded by your popularity? Do people come up and bother you and your family in the streets for autographs? Does that bother you? @JP- Basically the same question as Day9's but more relative to SotG. Also asked JP about his thoughts on the euro version of SotG which started (the name of which eludes me) | ||

The physics kids at my college shared it around when they got to the quantum physics course. It's a good read. | ||

I just finished reading it, it is quite short, but a nice story. I am not a Harry Potter fan (only read cause Tyler used it as a shout out,) but I was able to get the references. The TL;DR for people not sure if they should read it or not is basically this: Harry is just recevieing his letter from Hogwarts, his parents are still dead, but his mother decided to make his aunt beautiful (via magic) after the aunt begged her. Harry's parents are dead, he is living with his aunt who, after becoming beautiful, married someone else and had an entirely different childhood. His father is a professor, so when the letter comes in the mail, he beleive his wife (Harry's aunt) has gone crazy or something. Harry decides to test the theory of weather or not there could possibly be magic by sending a letter back to Hogwarts saying that his real parents are dead and he doesn't know what is going on. Seing as he does not know the address, and the letter was said have been sent via owl, he decided to go outside with his reply in hand and yell at the sky for an owl to come get his letter. As he is yelling, his neighbor hears him, says Hogwarts is dumb for not preparing for this propery, and she will sort everything else out. Edit: this is just the TLDR of chapter 1, my bad. | ||

There are dropdown menus at the top and bottom which you can use to navigate to the other seventy-six chapters. You just read chapter one. Later chapters deal with time paradoxes and so on. | ||
