But he said at one moment that casters like HD, Husky (and TB) should not ever cast live events and only stay fringe (youtube and similar). And this was not a joke. And Liquid'Tyler and Idra basically agreed with him by saying that the only worth of these casters was that they brought new people into SC2. Even if he did say that, which im not too sure about that, what does it matter if its not a joke? It's his opinion, you don't have to accept it or acknowledge it. Anyways the only reason I chimed in was because you are just changing what iNcontrol is saying even if by 1 word, or by context you can change entire meanings. | ||

Taking what is said out of context causes too much unessential drama so stop reading into what is said by pillars and just take it at face value. Everyone will be happier because of it. | ||

It matters because my post was an answer to the other guy who said that TB should apply to cast NASL. With Incontrol saying those things and that not being a JOKE, it means TB would never get the job when we know Incontrol is the "boss" around there. | ||

As regards to 'fringe'. We are the mainstream, Incontrol is the fringe, not the other way around. There are lessons to be learned there as to what widespread appeal is and how best to achieve it. | ||

Take what they say with a grain of salt and make your own assessments of what each caster brings to the table. If nothing, don't tune in. If something, tune in for that reason. Let's not play semantics or absolute of titles that result to nothing but splitting hairs. | ||

If you just opened your ears to the SOTG iNc is NOT the boss he does not control the leauge, he is the face and the main caster; Russ and someone else own, run, created this league. Anyways sorry for derailing this thread, I truly do like TB and think his live stuff is great, misinformation just kills me to see though. | ||

Do you seriously think if TB applied for a job, Russ would come to InControl and tell him: "I know you do not like play by play casters and do not think they need to run live events, but I hired him and I do not care what you think and now you need to work with him and have chemistry when you cast together"? Seriously? Anyways, I agree with TB that what he does is not fringe. I guess I am just pissed because before SotG I listened to the TB interview and I felt is was unfair for those SotG people to bash TB in two shows in a row with stupid remarks. I guess I need to stop listening to SotG (unfortunately they also give useful info during it) | ||

Right now I'm more interested in the scene closer to home and there's plenty going on in Europe to get involved in. As regards to 'fringe'. We are the mainstream, Incontrol is the fringe, not the other way around. There are lessons to be learned there as to what widespread appeal is and how best to achieve it. Bravo sir! Taking an opinion, and replying! That, ladies and gentlemen, is a mature approach. I look forward to seeing more from all of the Starcraft community! | ||

I enjoy your casting! Tyler; cool, calm, non-confrontational, logical - the complete opposite to incontrol and the perfect counterbalance on SOTG. Doesn't suprise me you have opposite opinions! EDIT: And nerd rages in games instead of out of them LOLS | ||
