Yeah this is basically what a progamer does.

But on topic I don't hate Octoshape! Actually I love it because it works flawlessly on my end.

As for the Sundance, I have a bad feeling about him. I may be wrong but in my opinion this guy is just trying to reap what the Starcraft community sowed.

False, I've met him multiple times at countless events over the past 7 years and he is definitely not like that. MLG is trying to pick Starcraft 2 up and promote it because the community at MLG was in an uproar for MLG to pick it up and support it. If you can raise enough support for any game MLG will pick it up and try their hardest to help the game grow. They don't just pick whatever popular game (such as SC2) there is at any given time and suck all the money out of it.



this, Sundance is not a guy who hides in an office somewhere will he makes thousands of dollars off of little kids playing games, Sundance is a guy who comes out on to the floor, meets the players and the spectators, and he is actually involved with the community(like this interview)

That place was beautiful and it's only an hour from my place. I imagine they will make their way back to DC but until it's announced it's all up to speculation.

Blizzard is working on adding new ladder maps though, so it may not be as bad as you think...hopefully.

I really enjoyed the interview with Sundance. I'm pleased with his attitude. I think it's far better than other head honchos in his position.

Good interview. He seems like a no-nonsense go-getter, with the right priorities. Hope they can grow SC2 competitive scene

Based on the comments already, I can't wait to hear this cast.

Sounds heavy.


It's basically JP asking a 3 word question, and sundance avoiding to answere it for 15 minutes, and none else is talking.. let's see if it gets hot and heavy soon.
Then again it's 06:32 here, so really late for me, and I need something interesting not to zone out.
Preshow was nice though

Seriously, I almost fell asleep listening to this American business buzzword doublespeak ~_~

Amusingly, it turns out MLG's offices are in New York while they hold every event south of the Mason-Dixon line...

Have you seen the map in PTR!!! Strange, I always thought that GSL will be less likely to adapt to getting new maps than MLG due to its size and much more at stake, really? Still going to use blizzard maps? sigh...

Adelscott is so bad manner and a huge whiner. Couldn't get over when an opponent disced in a weekly tournament where he had 150% lost and refused to take the loss and then raged when the good decision was taken that he had lost.
