Appeal to accomplishment, where an assertion is deemed true or false based on the accomplishments of the proposer, is a logical fallacy. In other words, it's stupid and wrong and people should stop saying it unless they want to look stupid and be wrong. EDIT: Conveniently Goeff goes into this at the start of the show, in regards to Nony specifically but it applies to all of them; 'It's a shame, and it's a blessing, that this show, we're so accessible. Like when Tyler makes a comment about MC or protoss or just gameplay in general, you can track him down. You can say something that he will see, you can tell him your thoughts. And that's not how the NFL is, that's not how ESPN is, you can't track one of those guys down and say 'Hey, I thought you were a total schmuck for the way you talked about *sports guys name* the other day, he's the best quarterback ever, who are you.' And er, I think that's too bad because Tyler doesn't just say 'MC is bad' and then we all chuckle and we move on, he actually explains the build, talks about the circumstances, and gets into the game at a level that people pay hundreds of dollars for coaching to hear, and he's sharing that knowledge for free and he's giving analysis that people should be...doing drastic things to get that information.' Get some. | ||

They talked about dreamhack for 1-2 minutes in very general terms, then about idras state of mind the rest of the time. I think it is time that europe gets something like this going also, there are so many tournaments and players that get manhandled on stog. "Upsets" when players most europeans know will crush etc. The stog can't keep up with the coverage anymore, we need more. And that is a good thing for SC2! | ||

Most of them are American, they're not going to have a huge knowledge pool of the Euro scene, I don't think it's a huge deal. | ||

They cant handle it, someone else should cut in on that. If they want to talk about the us and gsl, that is JPs choise. It is something that is missing in the sc2, thats all. | ||

Move away blizzard team, hire this guy Tanks at 60shot a dmg, and roaches at 1food 2armor with tunneling claws, & warpgate at 15seconds were perfectly fine too. if any problems arises in the game we just have to wait for mysterious player X in the future to "figure" out the strategies.  Its funny that people think Zergs are QQing and given up. Actually you can do both, its not like Zergs have gone on a strike !!! Also don't you think there must be a causation to all the Zerg QQ or its just correlation that the Zerg race attracts QQ personality? | ||

Kind of sounded like it, so my bad if I got it wrong. No, I'm saying someone else is stupid not to do it. I'm getting tired of this mentality that it is one show, and they most cateer to everyone. With the size of Sc2 now, the market is screaming for this kind of shows (or the shows that state of the game was one season ago). I would like a european perspective on the same level as this show, I think it will make the whole community more alive and happy. Rakaka.se does one for swedes, perhaps rakakworld should do one for the european scene as a whole. | ||

'If you don't do it JP, someone else will' has been a running gag since January when an angry fan said that about the extended SotG hiatus. I know what you're saying, man, I just don't see it as neccessary and probably wouldn't listen to a Euro-centric version. | ||
