I don't think that's fair. It'd be better to hear semi- or non-zerg players talk about how zergs could hypothetically be played instead of zerg players explaining why their race is terrible. It's not like it came down to just "use nydus, terran's immobile" like every response to a QQ post on the forums.

This week's episode had no sound issues with iNcontroL randomly going incredibly quiet, so its great to see that's fixed. I honestly think you shouldn't worry about offending anyone or having to tiptoe around topics such as Zerg balance, as some people in the thread suggest - the entire point of the cast is to hear top level people discuss things in entertaining ways. If you disagree with what they're saying, you're entitled to that, but having them avoid prominent topics like Zerg or Terran balance as they might not be "qualified" isn't sensible to me.

In the end I want to hear smart people, with a passion for the game, discussing any news, issues, tournaments or player activities they feel like. It's entertainment, and I'd hate to hear one cast where JP says "Oh, we can't talk about that because it might upset some Zerg players who don't think we know what we're talking about."

For the T-shirt: Maybe something that makes mention of iNcontroL's WCG victory over Nony? Or maybe something listing who won the sixth and forty-first places at the Bejing Olympics?

Great show again

Idea for the t-shirt is have Tyler wear Anna's Miss Oregon 2010 sash. It serves dual purpose:

* Embarass Tyler
* Promote Anna's victory

Not sure if it complies with the beauty pageant laws so one thing to confirm before proceeding.

Every week I think this podcast can't really be any better next week. Then without fail it is better the next week.

On zergs, I really enjoyed the Zerg talk from iNcontrol and the others. They weren't treating it like zergs are terrible, they just wanted to point out some of the things zergs need to be working towards.

I blame this show for making me lose, count it two games not just one from laughing. Latest one this week, I decided to listen to while laddering and laughed. Misclicked a nydus worm in one game and in the other built drones instead of units.. I'm talking like 4 hatch all injected.

Great stuff as always.

Also, iNcontroL's impression of Tyler always makes me laugh without fail, it's brilliant.

His impression this week sounded more like a nerdy dude and less like a valley girl.

I thought the first 10-15mins was a bit too much. Also missed nony. All in all a great episode though. Thanks and keep it up. I really like incontrol when he actually talks about something in depth a bit.

And something I didn't even think about before i read this thread... there were no audio problems at all i think. Awesome job on fixing that. What about Carmac as a guest? I think that might be interesting.

Great podcast as always
but URGGH the Zerg discussion was lame; saying obvious things as if they are amazing revelations.

This is the first time I've listened to this show and DAMN it's awesome. Loved Geoff's explanation for how much he loves Colossus against non-Viking Terran. Keep up the good work guys.

I started listening last week and followed with listening to a bunch of older episodes. Great episode this week.

The only issue I have with the cast is that the intro/outro is SO MUCH LOUDER than the actual podcast. I always have to set the volume really low at the beginning then raise it once people start talking, it's a little irritating :|

That is fixed in episodes 10 and up.

Has Tyler made a comment on his recent failure?

Did he have an actual excuse for being a no-show on the cast? Or did he just hide in shame? :D

Love the cast - I was laughing my ass off driving from work today

uh and to be fair the people that would know why Zerg is suffering are the ones inflicting the pain not the ones running around being baffled by everything.

"oh hey mr unsuccessful zerg!? Why do you suck?"

I can see how that would sound fair if you're operating under the assumption that every Zerg just runs around being baffled by everything which is, obviously, completely asinine.

Excellent show, really enjoyed this one. I mean, I've enjoyed all of them, but I like that there was more discussion of gameplay and less "here are the ladder rankings,what do we think of them"
