Met 2GD at the Wild West Bar at IPL3 where he was discussing ESPORTS and such, and he took a look at my tag and said "Timothy Young (me) knows whats up" and tipped his drink to me. He had a wonderful sparkle in his eyes. Unforgettable.

Took the time to say hi to me every time we passed at the event, nice guy!


He is a real flirt


I saw him at IPL3...he was pretty seriously smashed >_>

I'm ok with the scene being very relaxed (live on three with beers at ipl3, etc), but it seems pretty BM to make your introductory video sitting on a bed, smashed, drinking more whiskey. Maybe that's just me.

that video was a perfect introduction to 2gd.
he is not super professionally boring.
he is himself. he is hilarious and easy going. he does his own thing and it's brilliant.

frankly 2gd is the only caster i've been watching lately because he doesn't completely kill his personality for a cast.

Now it makes sense on the timing for djWHEAT quitting his day job.

He found a better job.

Wheat scored such an awesome gig. I'm glad his hard work has payed off. Now he has a job that not only will support his family, but let him do something he really likes. That must feel pretty sweet.
Live every day to make the world a better place :)

I don't understand what their jobs will actually be? Are they just going to be spokesmen? Because it's pretty hard to see what else they bring to the table other than their names.

Here's hoping :D Great news. Kudos to djWheat for finally being able to get out of his day job. Can't think of anyone who deserves something like this more.

I have a confession: I haven't posted on TL for . . . quite awhile. But this is definitely big enough for me to come back and make a post:

djWHEAT, I, uh, may have had some dust in my eyes as I watched your video. I know this is something you've been working towards your whole life and it must be a dream come true for you to be able to do it full time. Congratulations, man, you deserve it.

Does this mean djwheat quit his regular job ? If so thats pretty amazing yet scary leap of faith he's taken


I have quit my day job. I hope my confidence in Twitch.tv is an indication at just how much I believe in this company. My family means the world to me, so these decisions aren't made lightly. My wife is fully supportive and she thinks it's right up my alley. That helps a lot as well.

Awesome news, congrats! (Took you long enough :p)

Also, congrats to Twitch.tv! This might be the first time I've seen a company hire an "e-sports manager" who actually knows what the fuck he's doing.
