At least, for the next 3 months or so.

Well I'm finally forced to do that which I knew I had to and simultaneously didn't want to do. But I can avoid it no longer. Starcraft and commentating just take up too much of my life. And I've had a lot of fun that last two months or so obsessing over this stuff but it's time I got down to doing stuff that needs to be done.

So I won't be making/syncing any more commentaries for the forseeable future.

I do plan on putting up a torrent with higher quality version of my commentaries thus far, expect that in the next week or two. But other than that I won't be making any commentaries (or live casts) for at least the next 3 months till I finish work on my novel.

I'll prolly also avoid watching any starcraft since my SC addiction is so hard to control.

Will miss you guys.

Also, regarding Tastless's generous offer in his thread.. obviously I can't co cast with him for the moment. But also I wanted to add that I felt it was an unprofessional thing for him to do. If you want to co-cast with someone you approach them privately and discuss it and come to an agreement one way or another.

Making a public post like that puts undue pressure on people to agree to do something they might not want or be able to do for whatever reason. I personally don't like being put in that sort of situation.

So see u guys in 3 months or so ( maybe/depending)

Keep enjoying the starcraft!

<3

Thanks for all your commentaries Klaz. You have really enlightened me when it comes to the pro scene. You made it very entertaining to watch pro games as opposed to before I would just watch them to learn strategies without caring who's who and who wins.

I think Tasteless was assuming that you would love to do it, as you really were on a roll. I don't think he meant to put pressure on you; the note is his post seemed like something off the side he felt like mentioning. And if you refuse, it's not like Tasteless or the rest of TL really minds. We understand.

Thanks for all you've done for the community.

Gonna miss ya Klaz... make sure to spend some time with the wifey too, I know my girl hates it when Im playing Starcraft or at a LAN party, so Im sure she'll appreciate the much needed time-off.

See ya when we see ya!
My only real pleasure was my days of schooling...and oh it was so sweet, to test myself against my teachers, and to fail sometimes without much consequence.

Sorry to see you go, in the mean time, unless someone else picks it up, I'll happily cast because I know how much more enjoyable it is with english commentary to listen to. Maybe you could give me some advice or listen in on me once or twice so I can reach the quality you've achieved. Thanks for all you've done so far.

Wow does that mean that you're a writer? gl with that novel.
It's really sad that you quit but I absolutly understand that descission (starcraft IS an addiction). In fact I was wondering how you could keep up that work, you never missed an important game.
I personally think you are the best commentator though tasteless seems a bit more competent in analysing you are way more enthusiastic and entertaining.
But don't take his comment so harsh, it showed his appreciation of your work imo.
Well... I hope we will see you again and I think I'm not the only one who would be willing to reward your effort with a small donation too.
But don't feel pressured in any way cause this should be a lesson for all of us: RL > SC

Thx for the great time <3
