You don't happen to have a TL;DR bullet point do you? djwheat not in it for the money djwheat loves sc2 casting almost as much as he loved quake 3 casting djwheat got a bit burnt out and busy as he is a fulltime twitch employee with actual responsibilities, people should not assume him casting less = him caring less about a game, any game not just sc2 | ||

I thought it was fairly obvious once he was hired by Twitch that he'd be moving behind the scenes and playing a different role. Yeah, just like Mr. Bitter. | ||

I don't blame or dislike him for it, but it's pretty obvious. | ||

They do it because they like the game and community, ungrateful as we can be.... | ||
