See this, people? This is one of the greatest foreign pro gamers in SC2 considering to retire from her active gaming career. I hope she's not serious about it, but I think she is.

Please stay, Scarlett:
1. Because of this awesome game:
2. Because of this awesome picture:

3. Because of those awesome and awkwards interviews:
No, seriously, Scarlett, I know you lurk around Teamliquid and you are reading this.
Do not retire!
Why? You have a lot of fans. Those fans are watching every game of you, nibbling their finger nails and straight away biting their foot nails (well I assure you I do because moving my foot to my mouth is the only thing I can do to ever come close to your sometimes weird sitting positions), sweating out tears of passion, excitement and joy whenever you play!
You have a cold-hearted Heart if you leave us in those dark, shattered halls that this community would be without your sneaky, silent, sometimes awkward, but always freaking great presence. You move your Zerglings just like Life does, your Swarm Hosts are as deadly as Stephano's Swarm Hosts are abusive, you cry tears about Protoss and embrace the void of a Zealot's heart just to plant down some gateways and show the world how imbalanced that race is!
You have victimized uncountable amounts of Zerglings and Banelings to the grim robots that are Widow Mines - WAS THEIR VALIANT SACRIFICE FOR NOTHING?! Think of all the overlords that gave their lives to ensure you'd see that evil Dark Shrine, where the Protoss fanatics dispatched from! Think of all the planets you left covered in slimey, juicy, warm Creep - those lonely active tumors, who shall command them now? You are the Zerg Queen!
No, seriously. You are a queen. A strong leader for a people of slimey alien creatures, but nevertheless a queen. Being a queen brings its own responsibilities, you know. So many Zerg died in the Brood Wars, so many died, slain by the evil likes of weak Protoss "heroes" and aggressive ursurps from a certain planet called "Terran". You cannot rest. You cannot sleep. You cannot move on.
YOU ARE NOT CONVINCED?! OKAY!

I have taken this cute panda baby hostage:

Keep on playing. Seriously. I tried to harm the baby but couldn't yet because it's so cute BUT I SWEAR I WILL!

Yummy, tasty tears! How will you ever be able to drink that delicious juice?
Okay, that's it. If that did not convince you to stay with us, listen to this song:
Okay. That's it. Really now. I am out of words and videos.
If you are really retiring, I wish you all the best in the world. May your future days be absolutely full of happiness, success, fun, joy, love, whatever.
I might have outed myself as a fan now.

This thread is not dead serious, but I really don't want her to retire
. Also, I used a lot of pictures and got all of them via google image search or browsing her fan club. Don't hate me for that and don't feel insulted if you own any of those pictures because they are used for a very good purpose.

I usually keep quiet but this is serious. Dear Scarlett it would be a great blow to the community to loose you. Have you thought about mentoring some younger players (particularly women) who could benefit from your experience? I think it would be a great way for your fans to find out about and support players who you think have what it takes to make it in eSports. Whatever you decide I hope your life is filled with the same joy I have received from your play. May David Kim bless you and your brood.

hellllllllllllllllllllllo everyone
so ive been thinking a lot about whattodo; which is why i havent posted here since that tweet !
ive lost most of my interest in sc2 (maybe lotv will be different); which is why my results havent been great lately; ive thought about quitting for awhile now, but i guess there is another option
I probably wont be practicing that much anymore, so either I will retire, or I could keep playing 'part-time'; as in play each WCS and maybe some random online tournament occasionaly, but without much practice, or I could stop playing completely..
I guess it's up to you guys, cause I can keep playing in the occasional tournament even if I mostly stop playing, if you'd still want to watch my games despite that.. Let me know I guess
