yes seems they just make stuff up as they go along...
I think he meant to say the favorite in the match, not the fan favorite.
yea guess so then
"fan favorite" is different from "favorite"
so i guess he just mispoke
That's what I figured.

I went a nudie bar at noon today to power up for my WCS games, and I went 4/0! %)
Is that what British people call a strip club?
I think "nudie bar" is also American. Originally here they were called "Gentlemen's Clubs" but everyone I know calls them strip clubs.
By the way, "British people" is a bit stupid. People from different parts of Britain have very, very different idioms and phrasing. Not to mention the accents, of course. Makes it a bit foolish to say things like "British people" or "British accent".
I apologize for my ignorance. What should I call people from the UK then? Just wondering, do you think Americans have an "American" accent then? I'm curious.
Also, they're strip/gentlemen's club in the US too.
Well I'd call English people English, Welsh people Welsh, Scottish people Scottish and Irish people Irish.
If you really got into the accents you'd be able to figure out Scousers, Brummies, Geordies, Cornish, Cockney and so on. But that's not really necessary.
Of course not. There's huge differences between, say, a Boston accent and an Arkansas one.
Okay, so you would go by country of origin? That makes sense.
I know almost nothing about the geography of England/UK (I would be interested to learn about it one day).
It seems you're a more worldly person than I am :D
Yeah, we tend to be more geographically aware.
That's not slight against you personally, rather the US education system. Seems so many Americans struggle at putting things on a map. Most people I know have a pretty good understanding of world geography.
I also went to a good schools and am pretty well educated.

At long last something I can actually enthusiastically feel some patriotic fervour for, after the whole royal spawn overhype fiasco
Do most Brits really care that much about it? From an American perspective it just seems funny and highly anachronistic.
It pisses me off massively because it is so anachronistic. It's pathetic really, you can't imagine quite how omnipresent it was on the news and how nauseatingly fawning the coverage was unless you actually live here
Throw out your television (or better yet, just the antenna/cable subscription). Don't read daily newspapers. Subscribe to something more serious for your intake of national news (for example, a monthly national politics journal), or visit similar websites.
I have started doing this about 10 years ago (when I started my higher education), and never regretted doing so.

I'm not a big hater on casters, but one thing I notice is of late a lot of the American casters have voices that are rather annoying and homogenised or something?
There's a lot of varience in accents within the States, seems curious that so many of the casters I'm seeing lately sound the same

It's not like everyone in our country is dumb but we seem to have such a self-centered overall feeling amongst students that they find knowledge about other countries trivial and uninteresting. It's sad.

You can do that, and it does mitigate it. In terms of work and socialising it's pretty difficult to avoid. Ideally I will get a nest egg and emigrate to Alaska where I can live in a shack in the wilderness, with numerous PCs and alternate between tracking bears and sitting in an E-sports nerve centre.

These current casters are fill-in's and are virtually unknown. Don't think they'll be returning after NASL takes full control.
Then again, I have no clue why the NASL casters aren't casting all the WCS AM games at the moment. Probably another "great idea" from the Blizzard Mothership
