I thought this is common knowledge here too...
If memory serves right, it was Jason Lee and a host of other commentators who casted not Tasteless.
Yup. I thought most people knew about this since Arirang is broadcasted in many countries.

This show has been mentioned before. The games they are re-casting are all from Gom Classics (last I checked), not any of the recent matches.

IDK how this has not been more publicised/modernised to discuss current games or even foreigner events! Man...

The only thing i can see that would cause this situation is tasteless wanting to cast and promote BW but Gretech telling him he can cast but not promote BW because it hurts SC2.

But since the title of the thread wasn't "Tasteless casting BW" and SC2 hadn't been released yet, most people didn't bother posting in it.

OMG CONSPIRACY THEORYZZZ
no seriously, it's just that arirang is a very low viewer channel, they don't even market themselves as having a games section, and they're doing really, really old games.

If day9 could just commentate on some bw games then I would get nerdgasm immediately!! I'm sad to see him go to the other side T_T

I don't think Nick would appreciate me telling details of his life. If you can get HIM to answer, more power to you. It really isn't that big a deal and everything has since been figured out. It's really just gossip in the end. The important thing is that yes he has been casting BW for the last 4 years and if you'd like to see more of it, let them know on the message board at arirang.co.kr My understanding is that the show will be cancelled in the spring if there isn't enough interest.
This post needs to be bumped, we need to garner more interest for this show!

If you want to visit the message board of Arirang TV's e-sports section then THIS link is for you. I strongly advice those who want to see their BW coverage continued, expanded and improved upon to go there and make your voices heard. It certainly couldn't hurt.

This is exactly why the show will most likely be cancelled. Everyone complains about not knowing, but when it comes to action to save the show, no one actually does anything about it. Only 2 posts there to show arirang that people are watching.

Whatever the reasons may be it's pretty sad that Tasteless can give shoutouts to Street Fighter tournaments during the GSL finals but can't even mention something he's directly involved with. I feel like these "behind the scenes" kind of issues are the biggest thing causing friction between the BW and SC2 communities.

I never knew... this is nuts. This has been going on for so long, BW never died for tasteless :').

No offense, but if the people making the show cannot be bothered to let the biggest community know about it, why should it be on our shoulders to "save the show". Obviously Tasteless isn't going to post about it, but what about you? Why is it someone else had to find it?
Anyway, the idea of recasting four year old games is ridiculous to me. Surely you have enough connection in the scene to get two players together for a showmatch or at least some newer games.

I have put forward the idea of casting top foreigner games. I'm even casting a set of pretty sick showmatches next week- it would be so easy to forward these guys some replays.

Holy shit. I (brace for it) didn't know at all about this. I'll be sure to check out VODs. Tasteless was a great commentator and he knew the game so well. It'd be great to see him doing what he does best.

reading through this whole thread makes me think there is a conspiracy against brood war
