So true MoC. I guess anyone passed 2007 is prehistoric to most. I know I lurked around here ever since Naz and Eri formed the team. I wish I could remember my exact join date. I only remember my initial intention, to inform the misinformed.

I enjoyed that... and even learned one or two minor details I didn't know :3

Thanks both of you for the interview.

It's nice to hear someone from TL acknowledge that 'bandwagoning' -- I prefer to call it jockriding -- is actually a problem on the site.

It shuts down or discourages a lot of legitimate discussion. To be honest, there's certain players or members I don't criticize, simply because:

a) I know they have the freedom to troll me, without reprecussion.
b) Other posters will become immediately defensive, misinterpret my comments, and accuse me of trolling or being an idiot for having the audacity of questioning 'a pro'.

Sometimes I see another poster raise a legitimate question or criticism about a player, and I think: "The guy has a point, but that's going nowhere very quickly ... ."

Found it funny how zatic is called a long time member. Three years isn't much compared to the 8 years TL exists. But probably one views everyone who has been an active member at the time one registered as an old time member.


I think you're exactly right on how a person determines whether someone is a veteran.

If a member was at the site before you, you will consider that member a veteran, even if you and the other member are both new. And if someone came after you, even if both you and the member have been around for years, you'll consider that member a newb.

Great interview. TL community is really top notch not just in the SC field but in gaming and eSports in general.

About the ads issue: maybe TL could use the revenue to sponsor some tournaments. And when I say tournaments I mean some small scale weekly tournaments between the regular TL gamers. All interested would sign in then the TL admin would randomly choose 16 of them. The tournament could be streamed and anyone could volunteer to cast. The winners would win a small money prize.
Since the TL community is so spread out, in one week the tournament could be for NA accounts, the next for EU and so on.
Well it just an idea.^^

Keep up the excellent work TL!

Wow great interview and thanks for the translation. Also i'm really excited to here about this big announcement coming later this month. I'm really hoping it is TSL 3, i gotta say i loved TSL 2 probably one of the most exciting tournaments i have ever watched. I was kinda sad to see the beta come out right after it finished i think that stopped Nony from getting a lot of the credit he deserved for being one of the best players in the world, and that series vs Idra was just to much fun. Either way can not wait to find out. Hope to see more awesome interviews like this in the future.

good interview. I met zatic at blizzcon 09 for a little bit. I sat next to him during the 1st BW cast for a few minutes. I don't think he really liked me at all lol

Wow, so much bandwagoning going on in this thread...


Seriously though, great interview. It is really nice of Take to have made the interview, both in the sense that it is a massive plug, and also that it is interesting and uplifting. It isn't like it's a wholly infrequent sensation, but things like this make me proud to be a member.

At first I was thinking the same thing, but after a minute or two of thought, I think I'd like a longer delay. On one hand, there are so many great tournaments going on, so it makes sense to get TSL out there so it can be the OSL of SC2. On the other hand, I'd personally like the game to stabilize more before TSL gets going again. The whole scene seems inexplicably hectic to me. I guess that's pretty exciting, but I'd also like there to be seriously solid footing what with the norms of the new sport. I feel like people (maybe just me) don't have a good guess as to where things are going with the future of SC2. The more solid the norms the greater the likelihood that TSL will become the dynasty it should be. I'd much prefer regular TL-Attacks or maybe Liquibition for the near future.

I got rather off topic there... Props to Take and Zatic.

Really great interview. I liked how TaKeSeN was professional about it: the questions rose interest in me and the way they were structured kept the interview going. There were no awkward pauses or any hesitation at all. And also, zatic is a great guy, much respect.

Thanks guys!

Dumb question, but is it 230 unique visitors a day, or is it 230,000 unique visitors on a good day? Lol they put it as 230.000 so I'm just wondering lol.

But damn, 230k people on a good day? Jeez.


Much of Europe uses the comma as a decimal mark: Pi = 3,14159

Some countries like Germany use the period as a thousands separator: 100.000 = One hundred thousand

Always confuses Americans, i know.
