But from all the posts on this forum i have not seen one post where TB was not extremly defensive and in a lot of cases extremly childish. Idra said some stupid shit about TB and TB responds by being on the exact same level as Idra. And lets face it , TB posted he would cut back on SC2 right after a disappointing tournament, that sounds like sulking to me. We can critizise the hosts for wrong interpretation as they clearly dont seem to like TB but come on man do you really have to respond the way you do about every bit critisism you get? TotalBiscuit's entire livelihood is based on his casts and videos. He has every right to be defensive. SotG is one of the most famous shows in SC2, and when Incontrol bashes on a caster, he literally has thousands of listeners. Incontrol, Day9, Tyler, Idra, and Nony are some of the most famous people in SC2, and anything they say actually affects public opinion. | ||

GJ, guys! You sure don't look like a bunch of morons after this podcast. JP, you're a great guy, but get your fucking facts straight before talking to a live audience about someone's career decisions. BTW, I used to be an Idra fan, but his unfounded hate towards MorroW is really fucking annoying. I actually think MorroW has greater potential as a Zerg player than IdrA does. Really hope he faces IdrA in a prestigious LAN tourney soon and shuts him up for good. I'm glad you missed the whole part where they said Morrow was a good player, and beat lots of good players to even GET to the finals before they noted his ZvZ was played poorly. The TB thing was handled poorly I agree, but Incontrol apologized in the thread mid show. If Idra of all people calling someone whiny will make you stop being a fan then you probably haven't been an Idra fan for very long. | ||

I get really annoyed by all these podcasts where people give their opinion on things when they're not 100% informed. In fact its so annoying that I usually come to this thread and make a post about thinking people will care about not being 100% correct and informed in a podcast where people are supposed to give their opinions on various topics. sarcasm /on | ||

Really hope he faces IdrA in a prestigious LAN tourney soon and shuts him up for good. Were you even listening? They said he was a great player. And yeah he played pretty bad against Ret in the finals, did you watch the games? Morrow himself even said the same thing they did, that there aren't many good Zergs to practice with in Europe. Btw I don't get why everyone here loves TB so much. His voice is annoying and he doesn't know anything about the game (he seems proud that he's in silver league or something). Plus it's pretty obvious that he got pissed off at how assembly went and thus is choosing to do less SC2 for everyone but him it seems. I get it but he keeps denying it so much it's silly. | ||

And I am not talking about his response to this issue but his posting in general. Just look at all the stuff he has been saying over the past couple of months whenever he gets critizised in the slightest. | ||

Just listening to this podcast gets me excited because everything that comes out of Geoff's mouth makes me nerdgasm because of what some misinformed insulted nerd will say on this thread!! Keep them coming everyone in sotg, please, please, please. Also, Geoff, to help with the TB impression, try elongating the words staying in that monotone deep voice. I feel that Australian's try and shorten the words, where as the upper class, rich Brit's enunciate more, attempting to prove they have more money than god. | ||

They just try to make the concurence looks bad. More and more SOTG goes from a valid interrsting show to a promotionnal show. Everything that doesn't do business with one of the host will be bashed. (and yes, saying "This guy is awesome ! But he sux lololololol" is bashing). The only credible host left is Tyler, and when he tries to say something incontrol is fucking anoying to type loudly in his mic like a stupid 9 year old kid who doesn't know when something is not funny anymore. | ||

If they want drama (and they obviously do), they can have it. He seems to be under the impression that they are out to get him and this was all intentional, which seriously confuses me. | ||
