EPTI'd like to know if this wasn't a starcraft website, would it be a strategy forum for any other game? Example: C&C, Diablo, WC3, Red-Alert?

I'd like to know if this wasn't a starcraft website, would it be a strategy forum for any other game? Example: C&C, Diablo, WC3, Red-Alert? That's kind of impossible to answer. If TL wasn't about SC, it would arguably be a completely different website. The content, founding members, community, etc. would all be different if it were built around another game. This site was built around a common interest in SC and its progaming scene, which are quite unique unto themselves. | ||

Our members have weekly meetings at the League for LAN SC2, CSL matches, and will probably start playing Brood War as well. If you mean UM, yes I went there for law school. But I graduated last spring! Before that I definitely met and played a good amount of CSL with the UM team, especially Funnytoss and Nubster. It was fun times, but now that I've graduated I don't keep in touch as much. | ||

I wouldn't mind each group day interview being news'd, but the issue is communication mostly. We don't have someone constantly checking to organize this. I started the PL aggregation links because I felt our translators needed some headlines. I don't mind making a thread with aggregation links like this, I just feel that it should be more of a BW-coverage team driven thing. Any of the coverage writers can news, ditto with Mods. If any of the translators (or more importantly the translation team heads) PM someone that can do it, I'm sure it'd be news'd. A lot of issues like this can be solved by simply taking the time to communicate with people rather than just sitting and hoping it gets fixed. For instance, Ares[Effort], did you PM a staff member about it when you discovered the issue? What did they say? | ||

I'm talking about TL news (which I have now) community highlights/news, and the Spotlights section. I find all of these great tools to see what threads I should check when I haven't been on TL in a couple days http://teamliquid.net/rss/news.xml otherwise, post in website feedback...I remember seeing a couple posts there earlier, or use the search function, I think there are probably ~20 threads on the topic with various people trying things. R1CH might have fixed it recently | ||

And will events such as another TSL be possible/plausible for Broodwar, in the future? I know SC2 has a fanbase much more massive than BW at the moment, but is another huge event possible for BW? (Yes I do realize that good BW players are practically extinct outside of Korea, but I'd still like to know TL's official stance on BW  ) | ||

Some suggestions: Royal road candidates (Afrotoss!) Which team will recover from the missteps from SPL R1? Another FvJ finals? Or who will displace them?

Each PL "interview" has 4 players being interviewed, though (3 if someone double-wins in the ace match), so that's more like 40 for a more apples to apples comparison? | ||

It's like walking by a store and getting free samples just because you can. And I hate it. Quoted from the streaming thread. Is this a common feeling that other staff members share? I can see why one would become annoyed having to approve/deny all those streams, but hating on people for providing content to the site seems a bit strange. Disregarding the quality of the content, all they hope for is a little bit of e-fame and except for the work involved in adding the streams, the content is free. Seems like win-win to me. | ||
