Tbh: I love it... but its not as good as Kezia and it kinda saddens me in that respect. 2 tracks are for all intensive purposes fille tracks (1 has no vocals the other has very little). Bloodmoat is clearly the best song on the album... but yeah. I hope they make more albums and I am still a HUGE fan and will see them live next month

Like with anything else they are an addict if they forego things like their health or social life in the name of whatever their addiction is. If your friend lies, stops being with friends and suffers a drop in grades/performance at work than the game has become detrimental. There are varying degrees of this and some can balance it. But if the person is truly addicted the best thing you can do is try and get them to do other things. If that doesnt work tell them how you feel. SC isnt a chemical or extremely counter-societal activity so the "addiction" imo is fairly weak and can be combated.

I noticed you posted a you vs. Jaedong replay (and I hear you won, congats [: ). My question is, is it easy for you to get games like this nowadays? You specifically, obviously, not the general public. Do you speak to any Korean progamers regularly, or game with them on occassion for fun?

It was a PGT game back when many many pros were playing.
But I have/do get games on west with professionals. Is it easy? no. Its definately still a rare situation that is a nice surprise. If you impress certain clan leaders (By.playeR) they will become kinda like handlers, and get you games with professionals or top koreans.. I have many replays against all the top By. players because of that. Today... not so much but I am friends with Assem/Rekrul and I hope that they can get me some games sometime! I keep asking but they have nobody on when I ask. We will see

Another related question... You beat Jaedong there, and look where he is now. You're not so bad off yourself, but do you feel some sort of jealousy? Envy? I think I would. I can see you being the kind of person that wouldn't mind much though. What's your take on it?

Even then when I beat him he was the better player. He now has 400+ apm/perfect mechanics and the best training partners surrounding him pre professional stint/currently. I have accepted that non koreans are simply at a huge disadvantage and will not overcome all those advantages with the remaining time in SCBW we have. That is to say, I am proud that I can be at a level where between classes, workouts, sports, friends and hw I can find enough time to play this game in my room and reach a level where I beat someone who theorizes this game with 20 other professionals daily, practices 10+ hours a day, competes on the grandest stage possible often and gets PAID to consume their lives with every aspect of this game. Pretty neat imo. That'd be like attending a "free practice" with an NFL team and beating a professional cornerback in a deep route.
So in a long winded way, no I am not "jealous" per se. I definately have envy, I'd love to experience what he does but as far as how you framed it... I was and will never be the player he is. Be it circumstantial or raw talent, he is simply above me. But that replay represents a time in history where I sat down with Johnny Chan and simply out played em. "Sorry John, I dont remember."

I hope this is still on?
-- What does a good player Zerg need? (as in what do you think the attitude of a zerg player, as in do you be a bad ass poker face and just face it? Do you need nerves of steel, listen to death music?
-- What is the best memory of any event you attended?
-- How old are you ?
-- Do you think about changing one thing in your game or career?
-- Do you like the Alien more or the Predator and why?

Gotta go with cold milk. When I have a warm meal I NEED a glass of milk.. same with brownies or cookies.. not the same without it.
If it weren't for SCBW I would probably be a lame ass console gamer who plays w/e is the flavor of the week.

If I can! I am already going to volunteer in a childrens group as some kind of "professional guest" or something and WCG is going to have me do a bunch of appearances and the likes I will do whatever I can to ride this wave!
