does anyone know the approx number of players on the different servers? people say that kor is the hardest etc, but i got a feeling that the server with the highest number of players will deliver the absolute best in the end.. and surely the eu and na-servers must have more players?

NA does have the most players. Quantity does not produce Quality.

i think it will in the long run, korean domination at the moment i feel has more to do with history from the BW-days, and mentality as well as ease to get sponsors etc. as time goes on the huge talent pool from the bigger servers will mean better players will emerge

thats what i think atleast.. if we look at other sports, the country with the highest number of active players always has the best/one of the best national teams (depending on how large the difference in active players is).

theres no such thing as a small country with a few active players dominating a sport

Those few active players also don't have access to the best training environment though hence they can't become the best team. Korea certainly doesn't have that problem. Even if the next Flash emerges from America (which I don't think will happen), I have no doubt that the average skill of Korea will still be higher than North America. The culture differences in gaming prevents this region from succeeding. Everything in Korea is more refined because they care about being good.

I think sc2ranks.com is the best source. Simple copy/paste from front page:

Do tournament casters, like Day9 and Chill, get paid for their efforts? I am not looking for amounts, just yes or no.

EDIT: Watching TSL3 atm that is why I ask.

as much as casters love sc2, do you think they would cast if they didn't get paid?

Yes.

I guess only lesser known casters cast for free as the more they cast the more known they will be, so they'd be the only ones to have another benefit at casting rather than a monetary benefit.

yeah, i noticed a little while after my post. i thought EU and NA would be even bigger (compared to KR), considering the difference in populations.. but i still think korea will cease dominating soon, 1 year from now i absolutely think there will be a more even playing field.

culture is of course important, but its easily imported, today theres nothing saying a pro team based in korea have to be better than one based in stockholm or anywhere else

Does anyone else feel forced to use unit health bars because of how useful they can be, but also feel that they get in the way of the game? They just seem too big and bulky to me.

I was thinking it would be nice to have some other options on health bars to make them blend in a bit more but still easily readable, like making them opaque or smaller, or give them a visual improvement to make them blend a bit more.

Am I alone in this? or are there others that are annoyed by these bars?

I think it would be great if spawn locations would show up on the map previews on battle.net (and on the loading screen). I think it would be very helpful considering how tournaments have been tweaking their maps slightly and changing the possible spawn locations.

Ultimately it's the players' responsibility to check these things, of course, but it's a stupid mistake to lose a game to (played a role in the White-ra vs MC dreamhack game, for instance) and I don't think it benefits anyone that such mistakes can happen. I imagine it is easy to become unsure of such things during a high-pressure tournament setting.

Yeah. After all, it can be hard work doing what they do, even though they do it for the love of Starcraft.
