Obviously Day9 isn't going to rant about balance and completely alienate a third of his fans, that may also be die hard idra fans, or stout fans who believe zerg is UP. It's within his best interest as a spokesperson of esports to not get into a childish discussion about balance on a show that 20k people are watching live. On the Incontrol, Tyler debate, I love them both. But it was completely childish for the debate to go on longer than 2 minutes. They are both looking out for the best interests of their teams (EG and Liquid) as a team and a franchise. Yet decide to have tense Ego thrusting debate battle, that puts both teams in an awkward situation where instead of both franchises benefiting each other, they alienate fans of both and make both teams look aggressive and unfriendly. The arguement was unprofessional and not the funny kind that makes the show better. Atleast with arguements about balance, your discussing the actual State Of The Game. But despite that, keep up the great work. Love the show!
Quoting this because I feel this is well thought out, and I feel to be true.

Think he has a right to be tbf, He was making valid points that are very hard to explain but instead of actually discussing the issue Geoff was being condescending and frivolous with his arguments. And there was nothing wrong with what he was saying, it's just that every minor detail got twisted until it completely warped what he was trying to say.

Hahaha another classic short WhiteRa story.

I think they joked on the show once that SOTG is like The View.

There are connotative meanings and denotative meanings.

But the tournament sounds good! Liquid was invited, but chose not to participate. If you don't think this post has a deceptive connotation, knowing the information later revealed,I don't know what to say to you. I'll try to explain the connotations of that post in case you fail to realize them. It paints EG as the ones being flexible and accommodating, (inviting TL), and it paints TL as pretentious (choosing not to participate).
A more reasonable thing to say would be that EG and TL were unable to arrive at an agreement upon tournament conditions. Period. No one is saying that EG's post was not necessary. Just that Tyler's subsequent response was justified.

Just take a look through the last 5-6 or whatever pages. Many of us did understand what you were trying to say, and it makes sense....

Are there any pictures of White-Ra delivering this speech?

Tyler never said not to post. He just said that if you're going to post, be a forum poster, not some guy in a suit. And Tyler never said that you should do that because he's on Team Liquid and its Team Liquid's website. He was saying that as a forum poster, he only wants people contributing on the forums. Which is completely valid. iNcontroL is addressing that point because Tyler inappropriately is accusing Colbi of doing what he says. Colbi posted the barebones facts. Nothing more. Nothing less. He didn't post EG's side and he didn't post Liquid's side. Where Tyler is mistaken and what makes the entire argument ridiculous is poor interpretation of Colbi's initial post. iNcontrol has a tendency to do this kind of thing in every argument, regardless of whether he is right or wrong, take one microcosm of what someone is saying, and just attack that rather then his opponenets overall argument.
Ya, thats what you do in debate. But then again, I don't think he's doing it intentionally, it's just a debater's instinct....its like a shark smelling blood, if you smell weakness in the opponent's arguments and you just attack, it's what you naturally do if you debate a lot.

80%? I thought it was more like 78%.

Geoff completely disregarding Tyler's argument and trying to make him look like an ass. It was almost unbearable to watch. He has a history of acting childishly but this made me not want to support anything he's a part of.

I understood what you were trying to say, and think you are were completely right btw morally. Regardless of what other people say.
