Just to get this clear, I don't condone this thread as it's based on a private conversation. However, smack talking the user who made the thread isn't really cool either. The information got out though it shouldn't. He wasn't the only one who saw it since it wasn't even his snapshot of the stream etc. Also it seems to some that he's already decided to quit. What I got from it was that he's considering it and as for speculations I don't think it's wrong to notify, if it's out there that is. However I feel that this thread will either be great as it shows how much the community cares for tyler. Or that it will be awful for him as something that he said privately now is out for the whole community and therefore people will try to interfere with his decision making.

I wonder if nony knows you dont have to be the best at something to make a living doing it. If e-sports becomes profitable he could do fine and do something less mundane than he would if he finished his last semester at Duke or whatever it was

No I'm not trolling, I just haven't played or watched sc:bw so I'm not hyping him like he is some outstanding pro. Cause he is not. He's just average and results show that clearly.

That said, he is nice on SotG

Are you serious? Tyler is a fantastic protoss. If anything, he is just trying to play the game at too high of a level to be successful yet. He is one of the only players who I see that is trying to figure out safe openings against every build and transitioning from them into beautifully timed and planned macro games. Tyler never misses a warp cycle, never lets his macro slip, and plays at a near perfect level. The guy is a fantastic player at both games, and just hasn't done really well for what, a month or two? Most of the losses I see him accrue are just from trying to play too safe, which may not work out now, but as the game gets worked out will just get better.

Tyler deserves much more appreciation for his play, and I'm sure many of his opponents that beat him, would argue that he is better than them regardless of their victory.

Edit: I just saw your reply above mine, and try not to be so ignorant. Study the games, see why he loses, it is almost never because of a mechanical mistake.

That may be true, but it doesn't mean that posting information that was obviously intended to be private all over the internet should be allowed.

I must say to both of you that the reason he was hyped so much was cause he was a great broodwar player. To Ragoo: Without people like Nony, you would never have something like Starcraft 2. People like him, Ret, IdrA and many others helped build up the starcraft community. They helped bring more awareness towards it and helped blizzard see how many people loved their game. So please give him the credit and respect he deserves.

From what I learn from all the interviews and stuffs about tyler, he's never a hard working individual, he's blessed with talents, but he stated that he can't bring himself to practice. How does he expect to win against other people where it counts?

QFT.

Too many people here judge players based on tournament results and significant wins and that is ridiculous. Just listen to him on a State of the Game discuss strategy or anything in general. Just slow down to listen and you will hear how well spoken and knowledgeable he is about the game, the scene, and the community in general.

As a huge fan, I would be bummed to see him retire, but in the end as a fan I want him to make the decision that he thinks is the correct decision. I hope he stays as a player, and if not I wish he stays in E-Sports.

A private conversation between two people is public? just because it was accidentally shown on stream?

I disagree.

Edit: Everything is speculation at this point; this thread probably doesn't help things : /

I woke victor up in the middle of his beauty sleep to see whats up :o . Was going to leave this open but its pure speculation based on tyler venting/being frustrated after a loss. He fully intends to go to events etc, it was just something that had been on his mind after some recent losses. Going to lock this until Tyler posts or Naz wakes up.

As for "censoring" reddit - i think the posts were removed out of respect for tyler's privacy. HB and I first saw this thing on reddit 20 mins ago and obviously its posted all over twitter etc - no take down requests or anything like that were made.
