idra was just mad as usual and needed to blame something/someone for his own failures. in that case it was cruncher, and he definitely didnt deserve all the hate he received from idra fans. hope he'll come back someday when he finished school, and take out the angry zerg once again. | ||

But I'll say that I went to university (and a pretty prestigious institution too, namely the university of toronto) and college before that, got good grades and good experience, and all I have to show for it is a lot of debt. Most certainly a waste of time and money, not a doubt in my mind. Unless you go to Harvard or some Ivy league school with really small class sizes and almost guaranteed employment at graduation (in which case you are rich anyway), then you will be entering the workforce at the same time as another 200 - 400 people in the same field just from your school, in just that year. And unemployment is on the rise right now. Think about that. And I'm not talking about English majors. I'm in computer science. 80% of the people that graduated with me and that I went to classes with are now unemployed (and can't get a decent job because they are overqualified) or employed in an unrelated field which they most of the time hate being in. I just want to say that I finished my undergrad Computer Science at University of Birmingham three months ago, and I and almost all my friends who haven't done masters/whatever are in related jobs. I'm not in the best job ever, but it's reasonably well paid, and it is a graduate software development role. And there was no shortage of them around here. Uni has paid off well for me. I don't want to generalise, but the market for compsci (in the UK at least) is perfectly fine from what I could tell. | ||

Idra said once the balance swung out of Protoss' favor, Cruncher would make a quiet exit, and here it is. <3 Thought the same thing when I read the news. I somehow doubt he'd be going back to school if he really was successful now. Bad / Medium results (for being a progamer) are not the most solid thing to base a risky career on. So it sure is a good decision. Good Luck in the future. | ||

In the end it's a loss for NA, one of their best Protoss. And to top it off, it has to be somebody with the nick "AnalThermometer" who reminds them of reason. :> Anyways, I wish Cruncher well for his school and I also hope that col can pick up SaSe, supporting him in Korea through the partnership with MVP. The non-Korean scene definitely lacks more dedicated players of the type of SaSe. | ||

Good luck with school/university to Cruncher, and I hope we won't see him again in SC2, unless he changes up his style. | ||

Good luck to him but I think he might be making a mistake. LOL, really? Any professional career will make him a MUCH higher salary than he could ever make gaming. If you're concerned about long-term finances then college is a much safer bet than being a progamer. | ||
