The pro analysis that tl does is dead sexy. Is there some data base that will answer queries like

"Show me all games by boxer?"

"What is the race vs race win/loss for this map?"

"Show me games between CJ Entus players and SKT players?"

"Show me zerg vs terran games on Monty Hall"

The results could contain links to vods, youtube videos, team liquid commentary, etc.

It seems like the TL crew keeps track of all of this information, it's just not in a nice, queryable form. It seems like a pretty simple thing to do with a relational DB.

Well, this IS a forum, so unless someone (or a group) wants to take on this monumental task of organizing everything for the last 5 or 6+ years into a database, dont expect anything soon.

Rumor has it there is something in the bushes.

But unlike like with the blogs, I won't spoil it this time.

It's fun knowing more than the average Joe, hehe.

Even something that just starts from the present now would be nice to have.

rrenaud: I know that either of us (and many others on this forum) can whip this up real easy in a couple hours. I guess the problem is just that nobody will want to host, maintain, or update it. Maybe if there was a way for the community as a whole to keep the database updated, wiki-style. But then there will be spam.

edit: despite this, the posters above me seem to be hinting something
