I guess this is cool, but I have to wonder how accomplished they really feel when a lot of the better female players (Scarlett, Luway, Flo) didn't even show. :/

let's not talk about Scarlett in this topic because as good as she is, I dont think she should be able to compete in female only tournaments. That's basically like transgender male competing in female olympics.

How exactly did someone who only started playing SC2 for 5 months get to the finals of a tournament?

Honest question: Is Scarlett even eligible for leagues like this? Not trying to start an argument or anything but it would seem a little weird to see Scarlett curb-stomping all the female only competitions.

The precedent set by other female-only tournaments (Iron Lady, Zowie Divina) is to allow Scarlett to participate, though I don't know what IeSF's stance was.

Which, FYI, is allowed. Has been for wuie a while, too. The reason there hasn't bees any transgender (male or female) that participated at the Olympics as their chosen gender is because none has ever qualified, not because they aren't allowed to compete.

(Full disclosure: to compete at the Olympics under your non-native gender you need to be post-op, have been on hormones for 2+ years and you need to be legally considered as being of your chosen gender).

Somewhere in the interview Aphrodite says only 2 players were able to make it, so the finals was the only match.

This is correct.

Visa issues and a car crash prevented two players from coming to the event at all.

The game is incredibly similar and the mechanics he had from playing Brood War obviously carry over into SC2. Honestly it isn't as impressive as people think (obviously GSL RO4 is fucking amazing but it is pretty much just as impressive for Life and Taeja).

Awesome interview from both Aphordite and Gabriella! I hope we'll see more of the South African representative in the future

Which is allowed (like someone stated above)
The difference between male and female for computer games is, if it matters at all, probably reduced to 'how do you feel about competitions and putting huge amounts of time and effort into sth." aka determination. This is greatly influenced by one's own character (which in turn is greatly influenced by hormone levels). So there is basically no difference between transwomen (which are female, except if women older than 50 are also not female because they are not fertile anymore) and 'natural' women.
On a side note: The common belief is that women can do non-physical tasks as good as men, but when it comes to computer games everyone draws a line based on gender.
Funfact: I've read somewhere a long time ago, that the wc2 Hessen (German Bundesland) Championship was won by a girl
No guarantees on that information though

on topic: congratz to aphrodite, I'd like to see her stream, missed out on that sadly
on the SA-girl: While it's nice to see the popularity of eSports rise, it is kinda sad that the scene has not yet evolved to the point where competitions like that are take seriously. But that will hopefully change in the future and I'm looking forward to it.
