Letter from the Editor
Dear Readers,
Wow that was quite the MSL wasn't it? Definitely one of the best and worst at the same time, so it's a must see for everyone :D Nothing beats experiencing the whole thing as it unfolded though. Especially in vent. Vent was hilarious. "There must be like 70 people in here!"
Also, apologies to meeple and Thunk, I haven't gotten around to making the section headings say that they are now by you guys and not previous employees of PX. I'll get around to it sometime soon!
Lastly, <3 FragKrag.

People actually talked about things in the Strategy forum!
- This thread talks about using the control and shift keys. The most recent bump includes some stuff that I didn't know about! Thanks Pangshai and bumper fryewolf!
- Random Korean is still trying out ideas on ICCUP! Check it out here here.
- Flash versus Jaedong. While I'm waiting for a definitive analysis about games 1 and 2 (extremely high level play), everyone went and discussed current ZvT/TvZ trends. Two Hatch or Three Hatch? and Flash's bunker rush: chedder terran or metagame shifter? I personally think the second thread is a little silly, but you might be able to get something out of it by reading it.

Sometimes it seemed like it will never die... it lingered on occasionally returning to prominence only to be washed underneath the limelight again, to sit and wait for a day when it will once again be remembered, instead of wading in the subconcious. RIP
It's probably addictive...

So kennigit probably said it best when he said "wtf is wrong with you". But it kinda made me a bit curious... How much is a gallon? Each guy produces about 5ml per session. A gallon is 3785ml, which works out to about 757 guys.
To put that into perspective... thats this many: + Show Spoiler +

AzureEye was just temp banned for 30 days by EvilTeletubby.
That account was created on 2008-12-11 17:18:20 and had 1314 posts.
Reason: For those who don't remember Azure, please read this thread.
He created a ZvT imbalance thread (as F13) then replied in support of himself on his alternate account Februarys. Over a year later, and he's still trolling with garbage arguments, absolutely refusing to ever actually debate or concede points.
The site is going to enjoy the next 30 days without you. When you return,
I FORBID YOU FROM PARTICIPATING IN ANY RACIAL IMBALANCE DISCUSSIONS.
Failure to comply will result in an immediate perm ban, and all of your known IP addresses will be blacklisted. This has nothing to do with censorship, this has to do with the fact that for the past year and a half you've done nothing but troll with the topic, derailing every thread you enter. You have demonstrated a complete inability to actually discuss a topic; you take your own word as gospel, refuse to accept facts/statistics backing up someone else's claim, and people trying to debate with you would have better success with a brick wall. You are abrasive and combative without even being instigated.
In short, you are a detriment to the website, and I sincerely hope you can change this attitude when you return.

In all honesty, this is your 4th ban on this account alone. Last chance to straighten out. The angsty teenage asshole routine will only get you so far.

You may be wondering why this isn't a perm ban.
Well, it's because even 6 years after your last post, you're still on message:
Frankly I'm impressed.

PX: First off, hello FragKrag! How's it going? Tell us a bit about yourself.
FragKrag: I've been pretty good. I'm FragKrag, real name Alan, and I have been around posting on TL since 2007. I guess I'm a relative new comer to the entire community.
PX: Well I think a lot of people know your name. What would you say you can accredit that to?
FragKrag: Well I end up posting in a lot of places and I hang around IRC more than actually posting on TL. Recently I've been giving some computer advice in the SC2 forum though.
PX: So what do you do for a living?
FragKrag: I'm 16 :D
PX: Where are ya from?
FragKrag: California, u s a u s a!! Originally from south CA, but now I'm stuck in the north ;_;
PX: So what do you do when you're not on TL or at school?
FragKrag: I'm usually either playing guitar, watching anime, or just doing nothing. Well I guess I do a lot of research on like computer parts.
PX: You were right about not being interesting ;D
FragKrag: ;_________;
PX: <3
FragKrag: i cap niggas in da hood?
PX: Alright then. So do you have plans for college/career yet?
FragKrag: Well I appied to a bunch of universities in CA. Not sure what I want to do, but it'll probably be something to do with engineering.
PX: Make the big bucks ^^
FragKrag: pffft, I have nothing to do with money anyways. Get money -> win lottery -> TSL3?
PX: So are you a TLer who plays or does not play Starcraft?
FragKrag: I don't play Starcraft at the moment! Nobody plays with a guy who doesn't have AH and Lan Lat. But when I did play, it was usually just race wars and random UMS, never gotten higher than D+ on iccup.
PX: So what's kept you coming back to TL then?
FragKrag: Well while I do follow progaming, I come to TL mostly for IRC, the general forum, and the blogs. I've also been known to make a few math help blogs from time to time.
PX: You're also known as one of TLs goto guys for anything related to heavy metal.
FragKrag: Oh right, I do listen to a lot of metal. I don't listen to it as much anymore though! Only Racer X and some Megadeth.
PX: Nothing wrong with that. So tell us, what happened in 2007 that made you discover the site?
FragKrag: Well back around early 2007, I met some people on the Blizzard Starcraft forums. There was a channel on USEast called 'public chat kj' which I ended up frequenting and ultimately it was a guy named HolyKau who linked me. There is a substantially less holy version of HolyKau on TL.
PX: I don't think he reads PX anyway so feel free to talk trash man.
FragKrag: he is mad newbie. Doesn't answer me on MSN. yeah he has no manners. I still love him though.
PX: So I know everybody and their momma has had a chance to give their opinions on the MSL "incident". What are yours?
FragKrag: Well, Jaedong definitely deserved the win he got, and I don't think anybody should argue with that. I'm going to be one of those guys who is going lay all of the blame on MBC. First they don't rent a stadium, then they get a shitty opener, then faulty power system.
FragKrag: zzzz
FragKrag: I just feel sorry for Flash. He definitely could have taken the series 3-2 if it wasn't for all that bullshit with MBC. I ended up not watching after game 3. At that point it was pretty obvious who would win so I tuned out. Especially after all that KT and Flash's dad business. Oh well I guess KT and Flash's dad have a part in it too.
PX: Ok, moving onward! Lets focus more on the positive!
FragKrag: happy thoughts!
PX: What has been your favorite moment on TL? Both as a poster and as a reader. Meaning, your own personal achievements as well as your favorite event to unfold on the forums.
FragKrag: Oh that's a hard question...
PX: I'm digging deep sir. To uncover the very soul of the one known as "FragKrag". Whatever that means.
FragKrag: I have no soul!
FragKrag: My favorite posting moment probably isn't on this account. But as for my favorite event on TL I have to say Combat-EX vs Chill. It wasn't just Day[9], but just everything about the entire event. And as second probably any thread about China. Everything about China turns into a gigantic drama bomb.
PX: I tend to stay out of those threads.
FragKrag: They are the best threads. Actually all of the threads on General generally suck in terms of actual quality, but drama is always good.
FragKrag: As my favorite achievement, uh skating is fun?
PX: So wait, you have some other account?
FragKrag: Yeah. It is now banned. FragKrag was my first TL account though so don't get any wrong ideas.
PX: Well then I guess it's only natural I ask you for your most embarrassing moment on TL.
FragKrag: this blog: http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=86843
FragKrag: it wouldn't die for like 2 days
PX: That's not so bad though
FragKrag: It was really bad for me. It seemed like a good concept on IRC.
PX: So who is your favorite poster? I prefer if you only name one person, but if you ust name more you can.
FragKrag: zulu_nation8 without a doubt
PX: Sounds... uh, reasonable. Now I'm dying to know who your least favorite poster is.
FragKrag: AzureEye. I don't think anybody could describe how happy I was when the kid got banned.
PX: Do you plan on playing SC2 when it comes out?
FragKrag: yeah of course
PX: Well not everybody wants to, which is why I asked.
FragKrag: It is SC2 though. Can't think of a reason not to play it
PX: Do you plan on getting very good at it or just playing casually?
FragKrag: I probably lack the dedication to actually get good at the game. Casually seems fine for me. UMS is always fun.
PX: So which BW UMSes do you play?
FragKrag: Pokebattle, micro games, Phantom, and Cats & Mice. I guess rw as well.
PX: Alrighty. Well I guess I can end this soon. Please give us some final words and some shoutouts.
FragKrag: haha thanks for interviewing me. Shout out to the IRC kids like XCetron and IntoTheWow :D
