Just want to say it's been fantastic having Sean back these past couple of weeks, and at full attention now that his thesis is done. The show was missing something vital without him.


Really? Personally I find him to be the one who consistently contributes the least to the show. Perhaps it may feel like he filled a role just because Geoff wasn't there. I'd rather have Idra than Day9 on the show, or at the very least have Idra become a permanent member.


Day9 is great. He keeps the discussion light-hearted. I always find that the casts without him start to get unnecessarily mean or serious.

Also, We Are All One.

On the subject of MarineKing being emo ... am I the only one that thinks he might be gay?

One can be feminine or even emotional without being homosexual. There's been no real evidence to show his sexual preference and I don't see how it's matters. The dude has just had some terrible luck and he gets rather emotional after a big win/loss.

I don't think you are the only one. I just don't think anyone really cares.
Also it's important to note that in asia, granted I have only lived in Japan but I assume the cultures are to somewhat similar to sk, there is a lot of males acting/dressing like him without actually being gay. I have few friends that are almost excactly like him and it's just who they are, all of them have girlfriends.
I hope I don't offend anyone by assuming so much, but it's just the impression I got while living there.

Whatever MKP's sexual preference is, he still does have an epic hover-hand

Plus, MKP is still quite young, and the fact that he spends so much time on SC2 might have effects on his social skills. His in-game and in-booth antics all allude to his youth.

So emo is the new gay thing?

When will people understand that personal attributes doesnt have to have anything to do with someones sexuality. How many proofs are there of manly men out there who turn out to be gay?

Social structures are interesting at best, but god damn humans live by prejudice...

And who gives a shit?

Balance talk is boring. Blah blah blah.

I want to see more in depth ESPN style breakdown of pro matches. That mean making sure every dude on the podcast has seen the game/match first.
Like NASL/IGN is starting, and I don't have the time to watch it. I hardly have enough free time to watch gsl. Having a nice break down of the better games each week would own.

Also stop using idra as the zerg point of view in the podcast. Not every zerg player in the world thinks toss is op, and maps suck, or whatever excuse idra is using now days. does idra still think terran is still op? i don't pay attention to idras rants anymore.

goddamn Tyler, where did you learn to write like that? It's pretty amazing how well the simplest thing can be formulated to end up like a strong point of view. I'm absolutely convinced that Z is inferior to P and without patches this wont change too much, but damn you make me swallow my words and just feel insignificant and wanna go back to practice Zerg

Apparently, Tyler majored in Philosophy at Duke University, but he dropped out to pursue e-sports goals, including a brief stint on the Korean team eSTRO. Basically, he's really smart.

I actually don't give a shit. I'm just trying to changed the subject. And it worked!

I think it would be great if he were gay. I don't know how many gay progamers are out there; it would just make mean the community is more diverse.

Also, I think it's a little ironic how you automatically jumped to the conclusion that I might be prejudiced against gay people, just because I wondered out loud if he was gay. Wow, people are so cynical.

It's not ironic at all - I never said you were prejudice against gay people. I actually didnt say you were prejudice about anything, but I was implying that we live in a world full of it and I was pointing this out because you were linking his attributes to his sexuality meaning you basically "judged" the book by its cover.

Gay people coming out is always good, especially in closed up communities. Just take the soccer example that is swirling around the world; a swedish div.1 player came out like it was nothing, and the whole world talks about it. Hopefully one day it will just be part of normal. Until then!

And yeah I might be cynical at times, but I didnt mean to say that you frowned upon gay people or anything like that just so we get that straight (HA!).

IdrA should be a "pillar" in this show. Imho he is worth at least as much as Day[9]/InControl, and I keep Day[9] very high.

IdrA is clear, smart and knows everything about Zerg. I do not always agree with IdrA but he knows what he is talking about.

This should be considered.

Am I the only one who miss Artosis in this debate? I really think they need to invite him back into the show more often! He is the best at explaining Starcraft, even better than Day9 I feel.

I really like having Idra on the show more regularly. He is quite articulate and honest when giving his input on games and offers insight that only a high level player can provide.

Also, from a race perspective the two only players (sorry JP and Day9 do not count) that they have regularly on the show are Protoss (Tyler and Incontrol). Would love to see a Terran and Zerg on their more regularly. Currently, Protoss gets infinitely more discussion and analysis than any other race.

No the real question is if Artosis and/or Tasteless are gay :D
