Seems like it's been a long week, thanks again.

Edit: Oh, dammit, Kotaku....this is yet another reason not to make such a fuss with "#SAVEHOTS." Idiot writers catch on and everyone gets bad publicity.

Kotaku articles are hit and miss... mostly miss. It makes me sad that anyone still takes them seriously.

I guess GOM thought MVP was going to win it (The most recent GSL tourney, which would be MVP's 5th GSL win) and pre-produced a trophy.

From the Kotaku article:
"How the hell can StarCraft compete with the exploding popularity of games like League of Legends and Dota 2—games that, ironically, are based on a fan-made customized map from the original StarCraft?"

Kotaku articles hurt my head.
