Edmon, you are right about one thing. Shout casting terminology has very few words.
In all my life I've never seen anyone use "blunder" or "high level play" so often that it has lost all meaning.
We're talking about the GSL folks, we don't need to be told these guys are playing at a high level. You would give Captain Obvious a head ache. There is nothing wrong with pointing out someone's weaknesses and strengths, but God Almighty! Raise your vocabulary!
Let's see how many different ways I can say blunder.
That will cost him!
I don't think <<insert name>> meant to do that, but what do I know. I'm just a sportscaster.
Ew, really?
He'll be thinking about that one in the morning.
Error
That will definitely make the blooper wheel of the week.
Highli-, I mean low light of the night.
Big mistake!
That was a disaster waiting to happen.
Etc.
I did all of those off the top of my head.

we should make a list of things tastosis should say during their commentary lol.

Just watch some cricket. You'll learn how to commentate (British) in no time. Esp how to talk shit when there is absolutely nothing going on, like how the caretaker has now changed what grass he is using and how it affects the game etc.

If im not mistaken this was a British person asking artosis to use more British slang in his casts, if im not mistaken, then this is quite possibly one of the worst ideas known to man kind. I mean seriously if you want a british caster this is what i propose, download the games from gom tv mute the sound, cast the games yourself. You can add in as much british slang as you want. Sit back and enjoy it. Sigh, thanks for the idea i guess?

Surely world class should be in here, it's impossible to watch a sports match in the UK without hearing that at least 10 times, maybe that should be the English word far "baller"

Corrected, it was just a typo, I believe I've spelt it correctly everywhere else. Take a chill pill my friend.

Nice to see you didn't highlight Britain correctly on your map. "Britain" is highlighted correctly. Great Britian includes N.Ireland. But the map I just robbed off of google images anyway. Feel free to make a better one and I'll edit the post .
For suitably incorrect values of 'correctly'. There seem to be Orkney- and Shetland- shaped archipelagos in the middle of the North Sea, inappropriately highlighted and sited about a couple of hundred miles southeast of where the Northern Isles normally are.

I must say good sir, a spiffing read!
|
literally 50% of that no one says in the uk but yeah :~)
|
I am also confused and from the US.
A lot of those comments don't even seem that "English" and would sound pretty lame in context.
"blonde moment"? I remember using tht in kindergarden... and refering to girls.
If he commentated with a rediculous fake British accent, it would be entertaining (For maybe a couple times)... but if OP is serious, get an English commentator?
|
It's funny because these phrases are basically all used in the US as well, but just don't fit that well so he doesn't use them, lewl.
Day9 made fun of dApollo much better. "He's bunkered up right good!"

Quite so, a spiffing read indeed. Hats off, Edmon, old bean.

Great Britain is the Island, whereas the UK is the state, including England, Scotland, Wales and Nothern Ireland. So the image is correct.

While i am sure he would like to hear more british slang i am very confident that this was a joke.
On that point i think it would be hilarious to see them do a cast using as many of these as they can, it would sound so unnatural to hear them try and get the terms and phrases correct
