Welcome to LiquiScoop, the #1 weekly newsletter for everything that goes on in the Teamliquid.net forums! Here you'll find notable threads, notable posters, and some fun original content as well.
A big thanks to IntoTheWow and dronebabo for their tireless help, and also to the countless others who helped spot great posts or threads. Without them, LiquiScoop would not happen. Also, everyone give a big round of applause to Oxy and lil.sis, who do lots of great photoshop work for us. Enjoy!
This week we have something special to announce:
The LiquiScoop Haiku Contest
Write your very own Haiku and submit it to our judges and the winners will have their poetry featured in next week's LiquiScoop! For those that do not know what a Haiku is, it is a three-line poem, where the first line is five syllables, second line is seven syllables, and the third line is five syllables again. For the truly gifted poets, have your Haiku express a seasonal mood. More about Haikus at Wikipedia.
Unsure what your Haiku should be about? Write about TeamLiquid, or your favorite Progamer, or anything! A few examples, written by a few of your TL.net Moderators:

I just downloaded a nice rar file containing something i would really like to obtain. But the problem is that this file is password protected. The page i downloaded the file from is in chinese so I have big problemes finding the right password.
Can someone who speaks chinese please help me? I would post the link to the website here, but im not sure about the tl.net policy regarding porn. So it's probably better if I can pm you (the helpful person) the link. In advance, thank you.

Old Closed Forum Thread of the Week
- Each week, we at LiquiScoop find one thread from the Closed Forum. These threads are diamonds in the rough, underappreciated secret threads that the Mods did not want you to see. They will now get their well-deserved time in the spotlight. Unfortunately you can't post in them, but you can view them, jaws agape in utter awe, mouth salivating in anticipation at what hidden treasures the Closed Forum will yield next week. This week's OCFTotW is titled "i think i just ate rat poison..." Find out what happens next by clicking!
