btw suc is pretty damn right
I understand my music isn't for everyone.
I understand people prefer it when I interact/chat with the stream and commentate my play.
If the music is on it is because I am too tired to talk or I have someone else in the room and they don't want me yapping at the cpu.
Soon both my energy level AND my ability to commentate will become much more agreeable for all of you. I will also organize my stream into a daily thing where people can count on seeing me play at X hour and I might even develop a few shows like training anna, EG training or chat interaction where I 2v2/1v1 people from my chat. We will see.
I have big plans/ideas but I need people to keep the faith and be patient. I get frustrated hearing people critique my play / diss my music all the time. Now as long as you are respectful I understand critiquing my play.. that's half the fun to watch a stream and be critical so you can learn. I get it. But saying "this song sucks" or "this music is so bad" is not tolerable in my stream. I don't even have to give a reason, it just isn't.
So please, just know that going forward. If it isn't for you then don't go to my stream or voice your precious opinion and then get banned.
if it pisses you off I am sorry. But in my stream I don't wanna hear it!

Maybe I'm just not a spoiled person but, I appreciate all streams from pro players. Does no one get that you are showing mannerisms that can be used against you all in tournaments? or that it's their choice to be there? Meh either way I like your stream regardless of whether you talk although it is preferred. haters gonna hate
edit: Maybe im bias because your music choices are off the hook good

I've always been a lurker on TL, but this post makes me want to respond because this subject is one that I am passionate about.
In my opinion the music each player puts on their stream is a reflection of their own personalities. I think its an important part of getting to know the players better. Of course, not everyone is going to be in to some player's musical choices - but thats the really the FUN of it.
For example: after watching his stream I now know that iNcontrol is into hardcore punk. Awesome. I had a friend once who loved that kind of music, so now i associate iNcontrol with that friend - which gives me a connection to him. Do I enjoy the music? Not particularly, but I'm glad that he played that because now I know a little more about him.
So, Mr. iNcontrol keep rocking the hardcore music! Better to play that than the generic techno music that everyone else seems to play.

Nice streaming today, no problem with the music. You're bound to get a lot of hate being one of the most well known people in the community, don't let it get to you. Gogo MLG Colombus!

Eventually I will be able to commentate all the time when I stream.
until then if you want to be a dick about my music don't be surprised when it results in a ban. Mute it or w/e but don't be a dick. I said that the music is terrible and got muted. Is taht being a dick?
Yup, sure is. Don't say "This music is terrible," say something less aggressive. Don't be what tasteless calls a neeEERrrRRRd. You can maybe say something like "This music isn't really my thing" but I personally would only do that if directly asked about my feelings on the music.

there is a mute button on streams, just sayin -_-
|
Really enjoy watching you coach other players, good analysis and help! But your fee is too expensive for me =(

Yeah...I don't think that is the point. The point is that people know how entertaining Geoff can be...and without saying my opinion on the music, I will say that there isn't any music that he could play that would be better than him talking. He's addressed that now though...so it just comes down to patience at this point.
|
I love hearing you coach other people, so I would love to see some more of that. If I played 'toss, I'd definitely get you to coach me, but I play Terran, so I chose the Devil Terran for my coach ^_^.
Keep up the great work Geoff. I love watching you stream, cause you stream at the perfect times for me
|
Awsome!
I really enjoy your hard work Geoff, may you never quit starcraft
Gogo kick some Losira ass!
|
I watch the stream not for amazing music but for the gameplay, personally I severely dislike Geoff's music, and that's fine, I don't bother him about his taste, I just play my own.
I'll be looking forward to the different stuff you mentioned that might be coming some time soon. Love your stream and you as a Starcraft player and a community personality.
|
I love the music. Every other stream usually plays techno/hiphop/whatever and it made me really sad until your stream finally started one day. It makes me happy that there are all kinds of StarCraft players.
Keep it up!
|
I know the post above me is music love, but I just tuned in and was "treated" to wonderwall.... aghhh just give me the death metal again
|
Im glad to see incontrol took the time to decide what he wanted to commit too.. I would rather watch incontrol on the stage of a finals match then in SotG!
Incontrol fighting!

banned from the chat for asking if incontrol was famous, GOGO GEKO

I have always loved your music Geoff, but I guess that's because we have similar music tastes. People do need to just understand you do what you have to do at the time and learn to deal with it. If they don't like it, then they can go elsewhere.
Hope you and Anna are doing okay as well.

I've watched your stream before and enjoyed it, but I just started watching it again recently and have been all tonight. I have to say, as much as I love the obnoxious nature of Destiny, the crazy proxy hatch antics of CatZ and watching Grubby evolve as a player, but you being as manner as you are is very refreshing (and your music isn't half bad either, ha).
I also really enjoy listening to you (and gretorp's stream) call out whats going on, your attack, and basically whats going through your mind, it's like I'm getting a free coaching lesson ... and man, do I need as much help as I can get to develop my protoss play.
Please, keep it up!
