It actually rubs me the wrong way that DJWheat and Incontrol (who check the thread) do not really mention your work. It's not hard to add 2 names to their list of thank-you's for this contribution. | ||

It really rubs me the wrong way when people are dumb and say things without actually checking / knowing and then get pissy about it. | ||

My apologies if it was mentioned in the last show, still downloading it. No way I could know. Did check the thread, though. Wouldn't it be nice if instead of calling names, we just said thank you to these guys? | ||

But I am thankful for both you and DJWheat ^^ Sent you PM's and posted here for all the great work you do. I listen to ITG every week and I'm really happy you do all the work. Thank you. | ||

I really love the show, but afaik, hashbaz doesn't get any profit out of this, you guys are sponsored (I don't know in what degree, if it covers every cost or no), but I do think, it's, well, different. I am not in any way defending that post though, judging before listening is not the way to go. Also, stay away from drugs and go to school. | ||

I was definitely wrong on this issue, and apologize. More love for everyone. | ||

As for his skipping a final series: even if he won, he's not going on guys, be real. Many players have said they forfeit games that don't matter. Make the case that he should have stayed, it's probably true, he should have...But could you have? I couldn't. If I took shit from tens of thousands of people all the way up to the tournament, my first big tournament, major community figures calling me out, saying I'm only there cause I'm someone's friend, about how I didn't belong...How I wasn't supposed to be there, how I was trash...And then go 0-4 in a fucking group that iNcontrol, idra, almost every player couldn't get out of, nevermind take a game off...I'd be fucking crushed and embarrassed. I'd probably disappear. | ||

So Ostojiy is an acceptable risk - up-and-coming ladder hero, on a team, trying to post some LAN results - while LastShadow isn't. Are we really interested in making "on a team" be a legitimate reason for qualifying for something? You say Ostojiy, who I am in no way undermining, keep that in mind, I think he had a reason to be there as did LS, but you say Ostojiy who is decent on ladder, who is trying to post some results is fine...But LS who lives in Korea, and is also decent on ladder is not? Based solely on the fact that he's a prick? | ||

That is the problem, not "is being a prick so bad????" On a different note, Incontrol, I thought that the guy who called in to ask about an armour upgrade for hatcheries had a decent question. He might not have expressed himself very well, but I think what he meant was : "I think marines can snipe hatcheries way too quickly from a drop, what do you guys think about that? Would a building armour upgrade, maybe only available on Hive tech, possibly help lategame Zerg keep their hatches alive a little bit longer against a dropping Terran?" | ||

LastShadow shouldn't have been there and the only reason he was there was because Day9 got him a spot and paid for his flight. | ||

There would of been better unknown (sort of) players to pick from USA & EU. | ||

Is there something I'm missing that shows they have any relationship, aside from a few dailies? Maybe you should inform yourself about LastShadow before even trying to make a point. LastShadow shouldn't have been there and the only reason he was there was because Day9 got him a spot and paid for his flight. What's there to inform? I've probably read more than most on it, but, admittedly, I don't have any inside information, never met the guy. He says outrageous things...so do others. And? I mean, he's in Korea, he's decent, and he's another underdog in the tournament. I love how everyone's picking and choosing their information. Wheat says he was "Under the impression" Day9 paid for it. WHich everyone accepts instantly. He also says he was not under the impression they were friends. Everyone discards. | ||

Now it's like: DJWheat: last weekend we had pleasure to see MLG Arena, what do you have to say about it guys? IdrA: i didnt see any games, but those who won was strongest players in the tournament.... iNcontroL: stellar performance by viOlet, the player who was code s, however he was declined in korean scene, viOlet then come up to USA, Texas (with help from CSN) and become amazing player he is now. Symbol did well, Stephano as well, etc, etc. DJWheat: Goody beat MMA, what do you guys think about that? IdrA: wtf... iNcontroL: amazing performance he show why he is still feared person in Europe scene. PainUser: he played better than MMA so he deserved the win. --------users questions------- or: DJWheat: so now we move on to RedBull Battlegrounds, iNcontroL any comments? iNcontroL: stellar performance by MC, he showed that he is still code s caliber player, even though most of the players has their up&downs, MC is always on the top and he just showed us that. Bomber did very well, Stephano dominated couple protoss. SaSe won his group, etc, etc IdrA: i didnt see any games, but those who won was strongest players in the tournament.... PainUser,: DRAMA ABOUT lastshadow DJWheat: DRAMA ABOUT lastshadow IdrA: DRAMA ABOUT lastshadow iNcontrol: DRAMA ABOUT lastshadow PainUser: DRAMA ABOUT lastshadow IdrA: DRAMA ABOUT lastshadow DJWheat: DRAMA ABOUT lastshadow iNcontrol: DRAMA ABOUT lastshadow --------------user questions---------------------- Probabbly I won't sound like a standard starcraft2 fan, but solo reason why I watched(and still watch hoping) this show was those small talks about actual game. I even was thinking that in the future you will have some video content, replay analysis or stuff like that. | ||

The story is old and not worth bringing up in my opinion, and all relevant quotes/posts are probably buried somewhere in TLs/GGs archives. | ||

He's from Canada guys, get it right! | ||
