I know it may sound a little morbid to some but I find it really touching, watching the Co-Optional Podcast today and Genna said that his ashes will be placed in the Axiom/Acer GSTL championship trophy they won (With the teams full support).

Just noticed. At work, I *still* have the "Join the glorious 60 fps revolution" desktop background. Set it up years ago and became so used to it that I didn't notice "oh, I have this TB background image".

This is such a terrible loss.

I don't know of anyone who could get remotely close to the level of awareness, integrity, reach, analysis he had managed. He was like a safeguard for both consumers and producers alike, because it is useful to get put in your place, the right way, in the long run.

A terrible loss for the healthiness of the industry. I know I will still check his youtube channels for some time... fuck.

If you read this, condolecences to his family. I don't feel most people realize who/what we've lost.

I only know TB from the day he helped with my youtube competition thingy, but that's more than enough to show the character of this amazing individual.

Gonna do a live stream tribute drawing of totalBiscuit today at around noon EST @ https://www.youtube.com/c/TheportraitartOfficial/live or https://www.twitch.tv/theportraitart (I use multi-stream)

hope to see some TLers there. There are usually not many people watching live drawing streams as they can be quite long and boring sometimes, but feel free to join and chat and hang out. I also have a discord server if people want to join and actually talk on the mic and voice chat and so on. (discord address https://discord.gg/QPU82m) I'll post this in blog too.

I'm not sure where his fan base are and how to reach them otherwise I'll invite them to join. (maybe someone can help) But i know many are here on TL and I'm definitely one of them.

John Bain "Totalbiscuit" was a true legend. I lost count at how many times he inspired and motivated me during his glorious run.

Rest in peace.

I guess he was a controversial person because of his argumentative nature and forceful personality, but I'm very sad he is gone. His passion for SC2 and for gaming was really amazing. RIP

I should add here that once TB insulted me for saying something stupid, and then I sent him a PM saying that in fact I was right because of reasons X,Y,Z and then he apologized to me and agreed with my point. That's why I liked TB, he was very passionate, with a big ego, but he was never above engaging with ordinary people and fans and such.
