Conversations with Scarlett (Part 2) - The Missing Third Immediately following the korean chicken dinner... Me: So it's Sunday, not too many things are open right now. Scarlett: Mm... Me: You want to go get some dessert? Scarlett: Didn't you just say that places are closed? Me: Most. There are a few that don't play by those rules. 10 minutes later Scarlett: This is where we get dessert? Me: Yeah, it's called a Sprinkles ATM. You put in money and a cupcake pops out. Scarlett: And it's open? Me: Runs 24/7 as far as I know. Scarlett: But, there's someone behind the machine right now? Me: Yeah, they have little elves making cupcakes behind the machine year round. Scarlett: *smack* back into the car Scarlett: Where are we going now? Me: Illegal street racing. Scarlett: ....What? Me: It's not like Fast and Furious, it's just a mountain road nearby called _______ Blvd. It doesn't see too much traffic so the road's in great condition, and there's enough people with fast cars around here that once in a while you'll get someone who wants to race you. Scarlett: How can you tell if they want to race you? Me: Well if they chase you, then they're taking you up on the offer. If they accelerate in front of you, they're inviting you to join. It's really free form and super casual. Scarlett: Such a corrupting influence. Me: What are you talking about? Scarlett: You're like, way older than I am. Me: This is stuff I was doing when I was back in college, so right around your age. Scarlett: I see. Scarlett: That... was fun. Me: Isn't it? You can really feel the adrenaline afterwards. I haven't done that in a while. Scarlett: Why don't you do it more often? Me: Good question... I haven't even been around here in years, I guess I got preoccupied with life, and other things.... Scarlett: You should, if it's what you like to do Me: Hm... hard to argue with that. Scarlett: So what did you like more about Broodwar, that you think is missing in the new game? Me: Where did this come from? Scarlett: You mentioned it a while back, you said you enjoyed watching SC1 more. Me: I think Starcraft used to be more of a spectator sport back then cuz it was unfathomable the amount of APM and multitasking was necessary to play it at a high level. Now it's kind of a participation game, where you look at the pros and you try to copy what they do. A little of the freak show aspect is gone... think about watching breakdancers, or boxers. We're not watching them because we necessarily want to be in their shoes, we watch them because they're doing something we can't. Broodwar allowed so many broken things to happen with proper control that the elite could further distinguish themselves in how freakishly good they were at the game. I loved seeing the sandbox nature of the game, because at any moment some new secret tech (glitch) would be discovered, and the entire game could change. Scarlett: I see Me: That's it? I see? What do you think? Scarlett: I only played broodwar for a little bit. I wasn't super serious back then. Me: SC2 is still a great game. I definitely have faith in Legacy of the Void. It's just how game development has evolved, in our age of AAA titles and insta-patch fixes, we just wont get a quality game that glitchy anymore. Scarlett: You play League though, so I can't take you seriously Me: Such a snob. Scarlett: DOTA 1 player 4 life. Me: I remember back when I was in college, days didn't really exist, only hours. classes were the only things that kept track of time. Scarlett: That's pretty much how it is for me. As long as I get practice in, I just stay up until I feel like sleeping. One time I literally slept for 48 hours straight Me: No. I don't believe you. Scarlett: I think I woke up to drink some water, and went back to sleep. When I woke up 2 days had passed Me: Yeah that's kinda out of control. I don't think I've said this to anyone before but you need to fix your sleeping schedule. Me: So what do you want to do after SC2? Scarlett: Hm... I'm not too sure Me: Have you thought about it much? Scarlett: Yeah, of course... I think I want to learn programming. I think I can be good at it. Me: I'm sure you can. Do you have any background in programming? Scarlett: I used to work on WC3 mods. I still keep in touch with the other modders I used to talk to back then. Me: You'd be surprised how many people you already know that can help you transition into that. Scarlett: I would have to go back to school Me: Most likely, yes. next day, after eating Mexican food... Me: My friend Ethan works at a huge magic store in San Gabriel, if we don't spend more than 15 minutes there I think we can stop by the card store and drop you off at the hotel by 5. Scarlett: Sounds good. I want to pick up some cards for my cube, and I think I'm gonna buy some arena lands. Me: Fancy. But remember, we can't spend more than 15 minutes at the store... Otherwise I can't guarantee that I'll be able to get you back to the hotel on time. Scarlett: Right, it'll be super quick. I can't be late. after the magic store Me: So, we stayed there about 15 minutes longer than we should have Scarlett: Yeah, that was a mistake. Me: From here to make it to the coast... at least 45 minutes, under the most ideal conditions. Scarlett: We have 35. Me: *accelerates* after one of the craziest drives from east LA to the PCH... Me: 5:05. Scarlett: That should work. Me: It's here for sure? Scarlett: I see QXC right there. *high five* Me: Well now you got a taste of what people really drive like in LA. Goodbye Scarlett. Scarlett: See ya. I might splice these into the original post to make it one big article eventually, for right now I just took a break from working to write this for those who showed interest in this thread. Thanks for reading. Scarlett, good luck on your coming tournaments and whatever you plan on doing after progaming. Scarlett gogo! -karaokesalesman | ||

Me: "So did you race with scarlett?" Mike: "Yeah, I took her for a spin." Mike: "She really liked it... Most girls get a kick out of the adrenalinep" Me: "Yeah, I've felt that at times" Me: "When I didn't think that I would be that kind of girl." Mike: "Labels... Everything is everything" And as for going into programming afterwards: hard to say if she'd need to go back to school. I didn't--went straight from a theoretical math degree to PS2 development. I also sucked at it for like...a year, though. >_> | ||

It's nice getting to see more of the players' actual personalities instead of whatever they show at tournaments/on stream. | ||
