I'll believe this when I get to see foreigners in the ro8 again. Or when a foreigner make it to ro4 for blizzcon.

This. While you europeans might be better in almost every way (metric system, health care, university tuition, paid maternal leave, paid vacation days, internet/cellular prices, net neutrality), using a dot to separate three digits is just obscenely wrong.

Dots, commas, whatever. Base 10 is so passé. Hex is the way to go.

This is awesome. I bought the war chest only because I can support the scene. Seeing this makes me wanna continue supporting . I love it and I think as long as people put money into the scene, and we can see where the support goes ,
those are the numbers that will really make or break the SC2 scene.

For such a long time the only contribution I could make was to open the stream on all the computers I had at home.

Now I can afford to have a small monthly budget that goes to my favorite streamers.
Because after a long day of work I can't play and I love watching SC2.

Thank you teamliquid for your existence and to all who made this possible !
I love Starcraft .

So this gives us a free pass to call for a "fix" every time the absurd american date format is used, right?

how's that for a dead game now?!


It is still a dead game honey boo boo. If it is still popular, Blizzard will not have to subsidize the prize pool to save the game.

A 250,000$ prize pool is not exactly dead either
