I just watched MC vs Naniwa and I have to say that I got the impression that the players are not behaving all that good with MC. When he wins he is the first one to wake up and shake hands with his opponent showing very good sportsmanship. However, all the other players (including Naniwa) did not do the same. As far as I have seen Takesen has also failed to invite him to comment on other's player's games. Granted, his English is not good, but he has a translator and it would be nice of Takesen to break the ice and show him some respect. After all, if 31 players jump and cheer after MC loses it is because he is the best in the world and it's a David vs Goliath fight. I think somebody in that house should leave that very clear to MC as a sign of respect so he does not take it as an insult.

@Fistro: almost everyone shook hands after their games. mc did cast a game on the first day if i remember correctly. the people in the pub (or rather infront of the pub) below the appartment cheered. thats where naniwa went. maybe he shook mc's hand afterwards.

@ncls: I hope you are right. So far I did not see him cast and I did not see anyone shake his hand, and I think I have watched about 70 % of all games in the last 3 days. Anyhow, I hope you are right. The guy just seems to lonely there

@Fistro: he isnt lonely, he played so much poker with everyone, they had lots of fun!

btw, this is from tl's twitter: "#HSC3 MC learning some German BM. Pushes people away from the kitchen table: "spasti""

spasti means retard in german. mc is running around calling ppl retard. talk about respect! :D

@nscl: thanks for the info. I am glad he is fitting in

Obviously what i get from the stream has nothing to do with what goes on inside

@Fistro: no problem. well i got all my infos from the stream (and twitter) aswell, but i watched pretty much everything on thursday, 50 % on friday and everything today. and most of the stuff i wrote could be seen when there were no games going on actually, cause at these times they showed the player's lounge with the poker table etc.

One more fun fact: MC apparently slept so much there. he woke up just to play a game today and went back to sleep :D. this is him on the couch http://www.readmore.de/index.php?cont=gallery_images&id=16790 .

@Groowl: indeed, but even idra said that he didnt really care or think that it was so bad mannered. still, i didnt like it when i saw it, just like the "are you angry?".

I really wish there were more tournaments like this they are so much fun for all involved. Mlg's have great competition but having loads of the players commentating makes homestory cups so much more fun.

Please, get MC to cast Huk vs Naniwa!. It would be so epic! His English is actually really good and he managed to cast very well at Dreamhack.

Theres a "qoute" button you know that makes replying to someone 10x more easier than saying @.

Top right of their post or the speech bubble above your chat editing tools when typing a message.
