Yeah it would be really nice with an DLable mp3 file.
Seems like the stream is slow and i have to buffer sometimes, maybe its my connections fault but anyway, mp3 file is always better and because you don't have it on itunes an mp3 file would be awesome!

Aha, oh man this shit is great, and I actually mean that, it's nice to see lower level players doing something like this and what not.

If it's not too late GMT, I'd love to be a guest/potential host.

Stats: Silver on EU and NA
800 games played on EU, have been demoted from gold.

If I'm not qualified to talk about this at a low level, I dunno who is.

Shoot me a PM or something, also, could someone do PST into GMT for me? :3

Also, I play Zerg.
Thank you, based god.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE LOGIC? IT'S NOT LIKE TYLER DOESN'T HAVE ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND PEOPLE DON'T RECOGNIZE HIM AS A TOP PROTOSS. NOT ONLY IN HIS PLAY, BUT TYLER IS ONE OF THE MOST MENTALLY PROFICIENT PLAYERS OUT THERE. EVEN IF HE ISN'T WINNING EVERYTHING THE DUDE UNDERSTANDS THE GAME BEYOND MOST PEOPLE AND IS PROBABLY THE BEST FOREIGNER TOSS WHEN IT COMES TO TIMINGS.


Take me down to all caps city,
where the posts are mad
and the trolls are busy.


OT: I watched a bit, it was kinda funny in weird way, I like it as a counterpoint to and parody of SoTG, I'll be finishing the rest of the podcast once I get done writing this paper. I think people like the one I quoted are reading waaaaaaay too much into fact that the OP mentioned Tyler's critique of MC, I don't think any of the members are seriously suggesting anything like "Tyler is fucking terrible and shouldn't have opinions", but more taking a controversial statement he made and using it in the best way possible.


Honestly, we gushed over Tyler at some point in the broadcast so you really are correct, its just a joke and people are getting all worked out. I'm a huge Tyler fanboi myself.


I got the joke instantly, as they even were joking about the exact same thing in the real SoTG, I don't know why people don't get it.

The beauty of the OP's logic is that it would absolutely kill not just Esports, but all sports if followed up on....

Ja Marcus Russell is a better QB than anyone on this forum (maybe..) so that means no one can criticize him. Could you imagine how dull discussing a sport (or esport) would be if we couldn't say anything negative about people who were better than us at that sport.

I don't think I'd bother.

BTW Tyler your opnion was valid and put forward in a well constructed and thought provoking way. You also look pimp in a dressing gown

I really like the logic in the OP. I guess billionaires, presidents, celebrities etc are all beyond criticism because a majority of people never will achieve anything similar.

Kudos on the troll, I have a feeling they'll mention this on the next cast.

The most recent official SOTG got me thinking: if Liquid'Tyler wasieleski can criticize oGsMC without having won a GSL, then obviously it's acceptable -- nay, necessary -- to have a gap in skill in order to discuss matters. This led me to believe that the actual SOTG is somewhat suboptimal in its selection of hosts and guests. As an alternative, I present the following:

STATE OF THE LAME

THE FOUR PILLARS (aka hosts):

Rainbows -- the host -- ROUGHLY EQUIVALENT TO JP MC DANIEL IN LADDER (i think)
Captain Crush - SILVER TERRAN
The Brit - PROTOSS. BRONZE SINCE RELEASE
Tim Horton - CANADIAN TERRAN. PLAT.
Tryhard at School - BRONZE TERRAN.

SPECIAL GUEST:
Buddhist -- THE EFAMOUS ROGUE FROM WOW WHO WAS BANNED FROM TL ONCE

Since when did you need to win a tournament to judge anyone. By your logic, Dan Marino could never judge any Quarterback who has won a Superbowl because he's never won a Superbowl.

What about all the expert historians and political analysts, man they've never been president, they shouldn't be able to judge and criticize Barack Obama.

You've never won a TSL, what gives you the right to criticize LiquidTyler?

Get my drift?


this, yo.

this whole entire idea is based on high schooler logic.

none of you are remotely significant.

Did anyone going absolutely batshit ballistic over this actually bother to just listen to it?

If so... really? U mad? U that mad? Over this? Really? Why...?

The OP is clearly a joke. I don't know why people are seriously arguing against it.
