And I really really like gom and cannot stand Kelly. Whoever posted that they can only stand American accents is an excellent troll. Literally one person says that and 20 Australians lose their shit. Its not her having an accent that I think bothers most people, its her specific accent. I find her almost unintelligible but in general Australian and British accents to be quite pleasant. | ||

I hope they have TorcH casting, if kellymilkies is actually chosen at least he may be able to redeem it. This is making me wonder about buying a ticket though. I probably still will for Code S but it would sadden me if Code A is ruined by subpar commentary | ||

It's their job, most people work at least 8 hours some even 12. If I was in there position I would want to cast as much as possible since I 1) enjoy it and 2) get paid. That ruins my day and expectations for Code A so lets hope it's not true. Australian or British accents are sexy btw, but she's annoying. | ||

Try talking enthusiastically for six hours a day, five (sometimes six) days a week, for two/three weeks straight. You will lose your voice. That's bad. It's not as simple as "LOL REAL PEOPLE WORK 9 HOURS A DAY DEAL WITH IT". | ||

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe they talk 6 hours straight for 5-6 days a week for 2-3 weeks. Code S/A is spread out over 3 weeks and with each day the number of players drop. Looking at GSL 4 the most amount of casting they had to do was in the first few days in which they would do AT MOST 2 groups of 4 per day with a break between the groups. About an average of 5 games per group. With an average of 20mins per game + pre/post game commentary. "LOL REAL PEOPLE WORK 9 HOURS A DAY DEAL WITH IT" Don't put words in my mouth. I respect them. | ||

I respect them and you should respect others. I'm not putting words in your mouth, I'm just exaggerating. I guess I need to be serious, then. Let's say your numbers are right, and remember that the amount of games played goes up every time the rounds go up. Doesn't matter. Typically, television personalities might work for an hour a day tops. Some work two hours, with two day breaks. The reason, is because they'll lose their voices. It's actually pretty common. Do you not hear tasteless' and artosis' voice breaking when they get excited later in S4? That's why. | ||

I'm sure tasteless needed a few days when he had that cold that lasted forever D= | ||

Tastosis talk about thoughts/stuff before/after/behind something which we are seeing on screen. And the funny non-starcraft stuff is just fun to listen to. It might be just a style difference though. Like the Korean guys use a lot more volume in casting, which Kelly seems to like too. This combined with Singaporion English makes it bit harder to follow. I just like the calm, relaxed, clear casting by Tastosis. But I'll check the games anyway, since the player frield seems a lot more fun than previous A-season. | ||

Everyone loves Tasteless and Artosis and no matter who they're getting for Code A, they're not going to match what Tastosis has done. If we split Tasteless and Artosis so that they're each paired with a new caster, I think everyone will find it far more acceptable. We could have Tasteless + New guy for Code S and Artosis + New guy for Code A. Good idea? No, it would not be, i will prove it by math: Artosis=5 Tastless=5 Thus, Tastosis=5*5=25 Code A #1=2 Code A #2=2 Thus Code A=2*2=4 Total=25+4=29 Artosis and Code A #1=5*2=10 Tastless and COde A #2=5*2=10 Total=10+10=20 To conclude 29>20, so tastosis must remain together. Edit: I forgot the units for my calculations, the unit is Awesomeness. | ||
