The announcement will be that iNcontrol was there at the meeting (even though we can see in the pictures) and that they were discussing an announcement that he will be announcing through IGN's website. Can't wait for the announcement.

Couldn't it just be that IGN is somehow related to the sponsoring of the NASL?

Ooh IGN representatives on TeamLiquid

It is certainly very nice that IGN are picking up StarCraft 2 but I'd expect anyone on TeamLiquid would say that. April is fast approaching and iNcontroL and Gretorp seem to have become better at casting since the Clash of the Titans a few weeks ago if the GCPL final is anything to go by.

I hope your picking up tips from GSL as they have it pretty much set (technical issues aside) for presentation, I realise the tournament is online (well, technically so is the GSL but you get the drift) but things still apply such as player interviews, graphics, observer, music, casting quality, bracket updates, VOD's access, stream access, well pretty much everything is top notch.

P.S. Speak to your game reviewer division and stop rating mediocre games at 8 or so, the average of 1-10 is 5, rate more average games a 5 (like Dragon Age 2).
Hmmm

Probably IGN sponsoring or streaming NASL?

and HD/PUser who are casting the HD World might be some added casters? or something far more menacing >

My prediction: incontrol and other manly men of sorts were invited to see if the effects of having cute girls present more often in tournaments would increase viewership. This being said, it was successful and true. The NASL will be host so several bikini models helping the players into thier booths during the finals and announcing their names and what not during the regular season.

or it could just be another tournament or sponsorship or something, but id like to hope for the first one.

It may increase viewership, but cute girls around Starcraft 2 pro-gamers from my experience usually generate awkwardness. Anyone remember IEM when MorroW and IdrA came out onto the stage with Razer girls? To me it just looked weird and awkward haha.

I wouldn't mind seeing the whored-up razer chicks replaced with cute nerdy girls.

The announcement IS NOT that they are sponsoring NASL. IGN is doing their own thing.

Also, some funny pictures.

Not another one of these. If you don't want to share information just stay away. Im soo done with these things. The next guys to announce an announcement should just post it on battlenet forums or something.

It wouldn't be an announcement of an announcement without Geoff somehow involved. But I'm still excited nonetheless ^^.
