With DeMu gone and now possibly IdrA sucks for ITG. don't think there's much of a chance of him staying on. another thing is that all iTG sponsors are also EG sponsors. he'll probably go to another team. he's a practical guy, i think. he won't just quit the game. | ||

ITG is an independent show that happens to have a lot of EG players as the cast. I don't really see a reason for IdrA to be booted from the show. Although there might be the possibility that he doesn't want to return. I hope not  | ||

His original plan (still stated on the original thread post for some reason) was to somehow emulate the Day9 daily but with a pro gamer representative for each race. Somewhere along the line, it became a mediocre replacement for the oldschool State of the Game when JP took that down unable to deal with r/starcraft flaming. djWHEAT wanted to take the show in a new direction starting 2013, but I'm not really sure if he succeeded. I say either revamp the show _completely_ or let it die now that it's missing almost all of its hosts. It still has Incontrol, so that's more then enough to keep the show going. I can't see it being that difficult to find a new host. Ideally, I would like someone less known to the scene to grab peoples attention and interest, rather than another figure who's been recycled on these talk show hosts before. Suggestions: not quite what I described above, but how about one of the NASL guys? Rotterdam or Gretorp -- not MrBitter (combined with wheat the zerg bias would be intolerable). | ||

Instead of letting some speculation run free. Here are some things that might clear up some things: - We are not going to kill the show - Demuslim will not be back - A new Zerg and Terran will join us tonight - No matter what happens with the two new guests (whether they stay on or not), Geoff and I will continue to do a show... this means that if it's iTG great, but if it's something else to take the spot, that's an option too. Geoff and I have had the discussion that we enjoy doing shows together enough, we're going to make sure there's always something there. iTG might change a bit over the next few months. As the show's producer, it's been a real fucking pain in my ass with all this bullshit that's gone on, and frankly, I'm just looking to get back to a regular show. It's never fun when you have to make sudden changes to a show, but we are also not going to abandon it just because of some issues that were out of our control. | ||
