I expected some sort of light-hearted SOTG type thing with a couple of guys losing their hair halfway through, instead i get them jumping around yelling fuck a lot. Are these guys thirteen? While I appreciate the fact that they're at a barcraft, they're pissed out of their skulls, they're having fun, I don't see how this makes interesting viewing for a sober person sitting at home.


I was sober, sitting at home, and found it hilarious. GG

I think this show is really unprofessional and highlights the community at its worst.

It's pretty shameful, especially when djWheat spends an enormous amount of time arguing that he isn't "ruining" eSports, to see his involvement in such a disgusting excuse of a show. Slasher has never in my opinion had anything worth listening to, and he just continues to escape on the "I'm drunk and talking the loudest, so I must be right and everyone just hates me" train.

At a time when SC2 is on the verge of becoming a widely broadcast, and potentially even televised event, it is just tremendously upsetting to see these sad demonstrations of behavior are leading the way. You're all grown men on Live on Three, maybe it's time you start acting like it.


Speaking of highlighting the community at its worst...

You tuned into a 3am (12 pst) broadcast from a bar where 2 men were getting their heads shaved over a bet. Sorry they didn't deliver on maturity that nobody ever guaranteed to you. If the success of e-sports hinges upon these 3 men at this specific moment in time, then so be it. If the cost of e-sports succeeding is not being able to enjoy oneself, then I'm happy to see it 'fail.'

For somebody so apparently on the straight-and-narrow, somebody so mature, you certainly don't seem to understand that whether we're pillars of the community or simple fans, we're all people, and we all like to have a good time.

Nobody who isn't a caring and passionate wants to see e-sports succeed. So instead of being a jerkoff because they loosen up and have fun on an atypical friday BARCRAFT show, try to recognize that they are as human as you and I, and that Slasher being loud and drunk won't bring the institution of e-sports crashing down around us. If you can't enjoy it, fine. Don't tune in. You can bastardize them for ruining e-sports when you've done half as much for half as long as the folks on that stage.


So you're basically agreeing that they are behaving poorly, but you're fine with that because their past "deeds" permit them to behave like immature frat boys on a stream that has bigger implications outside of 3 people being drunk at a bar? Also, please don't call me a jerkoff for having basic moral standards.


I don't quite understand your point of view. Answer this question honestly. Do you think that the people who are saying "it is fine" would also be saying "it is fine" if they were to be swearing and getting drunk during a live MLG stream (let's say that MLG were the ones who decided to allow it). Do you really think that they would then also say it is fine? The answer is undoubtedly no. The point is, this was just a bar party that was being streamed for people who may be interested.

You have to separate the two. No one ever looks at how a sports player parties, and judges the entire sport based on those kind of actions. It is the same case here. Hell, we may as well go scrutinize the actions of every live streamer if it doesn't closely follow the rules of professionalism to maintain a good image (by your logic).


But not every live streamer is a community figurehead. djWheat goes out of his way to argue that he is an important contributor to the community, and it's clear that he has that role. All I'm saying is that when you put yourself in that position, you are subject to some basic conduct expectations. It's not the use of bad language that bothers me, or the drinking - it's that they felt that this drunk panel of "community leaders" deserved to be streamed at a time when they were acting beyond unprofessional (and they wonder why so many people tell them they are ruining eSports...).

As for your other comment, when Tiger Woods cheated on his wife, did that damage golf? Hell yes it did. You can't have iconic figures in your sport casting a bad image of themselves into the public eye and expecting them to take you seriously. If Starcraft is going to expand, it needs leaders who are positive role models. That is all.

You mean this panel that was set up soley to stream slasher getting his head shaved at a bar. You need to learn what goes on at bars.

And no, golfs image didn't get hurt by tiger woods personal actions, tiger woods image got hurt.


And to parallel this to the whole Tiger Woods thing...

Did e-sports image get hurt: No.
Did Slasher's personal image get hurt: Not unless you are so sheltered that you've never seen someone drunk before. If this was all the time, every show, every interview, etc., maybe that'd be a different case.

Tiger Woods did something despicable. Golf is fine, and only his image was hurt. Slasher did something pretty normal and SC2 is fine, and his image isn't damaged in the slightest.

I actually can't agree that it hurt golf. I don't know, maybe my mind works differently, but when I heard that Tiger Woods cheated on his wife, I thought "Wow that was a terrible thing for him to do" but I DID NOT think "Wow, so all golfers cheat on their wives, and the golf associations approve of it." Come on. You are REALLY stretching this argument now. I think you really have to stop worrying so much about "esports being hurt." It really is ridiculous when it is taken to this extent.

When Michael Vick was convicted for having dogs fight, people didn't then look on the NFL, they looked down on him as a person.

In any event, the main difference between Michael Vick, and also the example you brought up in Tiger Woods, is that both of them did things that are WRONG, while what the Lo3 crew did was "unprofessional."

If you can't, and in fact you don't enjoy it, then please just don't watch.

Personally, when I heard about Kobe sexually assaulting that woman, I immediately thought, "WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE NBA!? How could they do that!?"

And when Kanye West made a big scene when Taylor Swift was accepting an award? I blamed the music industry, fans, engineers, producers, staff, artists, instrument makers, caterers, etc. Pretty much everyone actually. These thing have tremendous ripple effects, y'know?

For me it was more the stark contrast between the GSL finals and the barcraft show. The final games were great and the crowd and speeches at the end were awesome and inspiring. I'm new to following starcraft and, for me, the finals were the best thing I've seen in e-sports so far. Then I switched over to watch a show I enjoy each week and got a somewhat dull display of drunkenness.

Is anything done on LO3 going to ruin e-sports? Or course not. Is this just my selfish opinion? Yep. But, I'm sorry I tuned in because, as a viewer, it made a great night a little worse.

Go1den talking about being professional when all you do is trash talk opponents that play better than you do on your own stream when you're in Platinum? Hypocrite trolls are truly the most annoying kind.

As for this ridiculous point your trying to argue, this is a show and it has an audience that likes this kind of behavior. Just like with Destiny's stream, it can stay the same and these players can act professionally everywhere else. They are entertainers, not Politicians.

While I appreciate the fact that they're at a barcraft, they're pissed out of their skulls, they're having fun, I don't see how this makes interesting viewing for a sober person sitting at home.



If you're going to sit there at your own home sober... don't watch something called BARCRAFT. Look, a lot of us had a few drinks while watching the GSL finals... enjoyed the hell out of it. Then we watched the drunken antics of the post GSL barcraft show. This isn't real life where we cater to idiots and people earn tons of money for coffee being hot at McDonalds. Grow up, folks.


I don't get your point. Why shouldn't I be allowed to watch what I thought was gonna be an entertaining chat show because it's eight in the morning here? I'm not disputing their right to be drunk. I'm not disputing that if you're drunk this might be entertaining. I'm saying that streaming while drunk is just not as entertaining as it could be, because they're drunk. Drunk people find everything funny. Sober people find funny sober people funny. I've watched some shit with slasher and co before and found it reasonably interesting and engaging. This was a bunch of guys shouting fuck as loud as they can while they lost their hair.

PS: To anyone who says "well don't watch it then", I'm not. I turned it off when it became apparent it was a bit lowbrow for a saturday morning, and I probably wont watch any again because of it. But that doesn't mean I can't voice my opinion on it.

Talk as if you weren't aware that this episode would be

1) from within a barcraft event
2) about slasher loosing his hair

So seriously, what did you expect? Oh right, on all channels it was clearly advertised as regular episode! How could I have possibly missed that through all announcements!

You may well have not been entertained by it, but in no way was it unexpected. And if a single special episode has turned you off the entire show, you might not have been the target audience.

Don't see why people were so pissed off about it. I loved a lot of the episode and found it hilarious, there were parts though where I went "whoa shit these guys are drunk" but what else did i expect?

Know who complains about drunk people? People who never get drunk and sit around refusing to go out.

Go out. Drink. Be loud. Embarrass yourself and your friends.

Seriously.

hahaha keep it up lo3 crew, we don't need every show to be watered down and politically correct. This is the internet after all. No need to pretend like its prime time TV- one of the great advantages we have imo.

Was watching the vod. Lol seeing slasher get steadily more insecure and panicky as he gets closer to getting under the shaver. Its lacking content compared to the other lo3s but its good fun and we can forgive them after being on the road for the last few weeks.

I just watched the VOD. I was expecting them to be super drunk and the show super awkward from the comments I saw here beforehand. But they were pretty much exactly like they are normally, except louder. And half of that loudness came not from being drunk, but because they were in a loud room and had to shout. The microphones were setup bad for that shouting.

So the critical posters are pretty much liars and trolls, or not regular Lo3 watchers but cannot hold themselves back from commenting anyways. I find those posts pretty annoying, because I was worrying if I should perhaps skip watching the VOD.

Disappointing in contrast with the GSL finals (was expecting a follow-up show, even though that's not standard Lo3), but holy shit, I don't think another SC2 event will ever get me on such an emotional high as those finals did. I still found the show funny though; it would've been histerical if I was drinking with them.

I'm guessing the "hurting ESPORTS" comments are coming from underaged kiddos or a bunch of Sappy Susies.

Edit: Fuck Slasher. He never agreed to the bet with Scoots that he'd wear the tracksuit for a full 2012 event if a foreigner won Providence.
