Can anyone elaborate on the "flak Day9 has been catching recently" (around 47:45 of the video) that IdrA's talking about? Day[9] asking for donations and money despite making well over $100,000 a year from his streams, casting, youtube channel, etc. (20k a casting gig). Don't just start throwing numbers out there that you can't be sure of. Day9's nebulous approach to describing his financial situation tends to rub people the wrong way. I (and nobody else) wants exact numbers from him. That would be an inappropriate request, but he should be more clear. He does make a lot of money from his content, but remember, a lot of that money will go back into stuff he produces (e.g. AHGL). Oh yeah, that league nobody cared about, and helped the community(or the industry, as he likes to call it) in no way.He probably got some sweet contacts off of it so again, cant really blame him. Also, people do want exact numbers from him.
That's funny, because I thought part of it was to show that smart/educated/regular people with jobs (in microsoft, google etc) played videogames like starcraft. It helps dispel the notion that just because someone who plays/loves videogames, doesn't mean they're some unsocialized, unemployed, mouth breathing nerd. Corporate rec leagues are not at all uncommon with other sports, so why not starcraft. I would've loved to join if I was part of those companies.
Since this is the real talk thread of realness, i'll just be blunt: you're wrong, and I think you're a jerk.

Great questions from JP.
Great answers from Idra.
Looking forward to more of these.
|
It's like JP lives to make the esports world more enjoyable.
|
This show is growing to get one of my favorites . Great interview.
|
Hey JP! This is really fun, but I really want MP3-files so I can listen to it like a podcast! Please! 
|
jp has awesome questions and really puts his guests into the spotlight, great show, hopefully there will be more episodes soon ^_^
|
This show is really good.
Keep it going!
|

|

|
I really enjoyed this, great stuff!
|
Okay so we've had IdrA. Unfortunately this show can only get worse from here - let's face it. But thanks JP for that hour of awesomeness and good luck with the rest of the shows.

Worse? I am not sure, what if he first shows the first two minutes to Nani and then asks Nani for an interview . Let the e-drama commence!

Worst show ever and another misdemeanor done by jp. why is content that is so clearly a targeted smear camping directed at naniwa a good thing? If you are an aspiring journalist that wants to seek guidance and role models in the starcraft scene look away from real talk and jp.

awesome interview with idra =)
