You need the full flowchart:

Fuck, those were some scary names back then when I first joined. I was extremely intimidated by TeamLiquid guys because of its elitism. But its rubbing on me, in a good way.

I feel you my friend. I wish I could still stay up until 4 to shoot shit and watch those tournaments. The live report threads were always great, and every streamer had their own different angle on their stream. I was never really a huge active participant, but I loved reading the threads regardless and living vicariously through some of the stronger personalities in them.
Ahhhhhhhh College.
Nice blog, made me feel nostalgic. There's too many voices in the SC2 scene that no one has the chance to stand out other than... I dunno Seeker? opterown?

Proleague, aka the reason I never went to university in the morning from 2006 to 2010. Now I regret not joining TL earlier. I remember watching BW, before people used to restream regularly on TL, on that website whose admin's nickname was ilovecats, what was it ? sc2gg.com ?

Wow. Nostalgia. <3 I loved those streams. They didn't get me hooked on kpop, but I remember staying up until like 3 watching this stuff. Then my parents would come in and I'd be like, FUCK, and just switch to Teamliquid cuz they didn't know it was about Starcraft. I mean... it had a horse at the top.

Like six years ago, I'd be staying up for schoolwork anyways so I'd watch proleague in the background. And Corinthos (<3 you man) setting up the VLC streams was awesome. It was just so much more epic because I knew that the only live stuff that I'd be able to see of the best players in the world were those brief glimpses (before the era of streams). And then logging onto the small vod thread ASAP in the morning if I wasn't able to catch it the night before... good stuff.

I remember stumbling through the daum site to find a tiny, low res stream. Every day. For Starcraft.
Good times.

It was always fun doing homework, finishing it up, and then staying up late with cup of coffee and piece of toast translating the matches, then thinking about the games before heading off to sleep.
Those were the good days. Those were the days when I watched the games because I loved the game.
|
I used to watch all nights too... go up five in the morning to internet cafés when i was a poor student in Paris and couldn't afford having internet in my room. Shaking with excitement every time Jaedong played.
Now i don't even know if the osl is over or not. I know what you miss..
