Any way great article thanks for sharing. Yeah exactly, anna is a great example. Besides Isn't Idra's GF Canadian?
I have to say Idra's GF seems like a bit of a psycho....
Shame that the 14 year olds tried to ruin the finals with lag.
Other than that, MLG was simply amazing!!!
Loved it all, amazing games, amazing casters, amazing stream and i didn't even mind the commercials (except the bing one, fuck the bing one was annoying). The crowd was awsome.
Just loved it, my favorite tournament by far!

Milkis is one of my new favourite TL persons =D I think you did a bang up job of all the interviews and being someone who speaks 2 foreign languages myself (not natively), I can't imagine how difficult it was to keep up with all that.
I hope to see more of you, thanks for the write-ups! The best thing about these e-sports events are shoutouts to all the people you don't hear about (tech support, staff, refs etc.) and the stories behind the scenes (Idra's girlfriend getting wasted and badmouthing all the pros =D hahahah)
MILKIS FIGHTING!

Hmm, it wasn't me who said that. But I don't think anyone knew Idra's GF was canadian at that point.

MMA isn't just a fan boy of the sport, but competed as well.
I don't know how a finger injury would stop someone from competing though. Sounds like a silly excuse to get out. I'm sure there is more to it. :x
Nothing rehab cannot fix.
Thanks again Milkis!
Maybe it was his thumb. I can see that affecting grappling. Or he played Starcraft during his rehab and got hooked.
So, did anyone make the obligatory Boxer (old school) --> MMA (new school) jokes yet? Son of boxer? Mixed martial artist? Even the time frames for their careers are in parallel with the sports' progressions and peak popularity.

I always thought MMA named himself that as a sort of homage to Boxer, rather than straight up copying his name ala MKP heh.
To hear that he trained in a sport I've followed for 10 years and now is my favorite terran, the nerd crush is getting out of control. What. A. Boss.
Thanks for the effort you put in at MLG and also letting us know how it all went down Milkis.
*edit* Gah, I'd been ruminating on the significance of MMA's name since I heard about him being on Boxer's team, finally find a thread I feel warrants it and get beaten as I'm typing!
Must improve my mechanics.....

Don't feel bad, my WPM can peak at 120. Practice, practice, practice. I like MS Word maps. Good rush distances. HTML is tricky.
But yeah, MMA... He can submit ppl in game and IRL.

Nice job! You are utterly Brood War Korean in your post-match statement though:
Oh man, I got so many PMs thanking me and telling me that I did a good job and I honestly got so many I can't respond to them all ;; I'll practice my Korean and do even better Gonna practice even harder, try to serve my fans .... all that jazz.

In defense of the women from Canada, I think it has less to do with being Canadian and more to do with her just being young.
Women in Canada are pretty much like women from the States ... It all depends on where they grew up (west coast, mid west, central, east coast).

No, he was telling a joke which wasn't meant to be taken literally. Jesus Christ.
Great read and an awesome job at translating throughout the entire tournament!

I knew Grack's girlfriend was too good of a find to be true. Glad somebody spilled the beans on her

After a given point Idra's girlfriend is drunk and ends up at the patio and she starts trash talking MC and MC was quite the gentleman One of the Korean players remarked that "I thought she was pretty but I was quite mistaken" lol. She kept pointing at MMA and calling him gosu and pointed to MC and Idra "they shit, you gosu" over and over again.
rofl, way to go, idra! :D Also, nice job this weekend, milkis. Hope to see you at a lot of other foreigner-events.

Man, TL really has some great people working for them. I mean just look at what the staff's done recently. First it was hot_bid's amazing camera work at the TSL (not to mention the actual TSL and the announcement of the new series of TL opens) and now Milkis' translating work at MLG Columbus. Great work guys

american girls aren't like that LOL, then just one random example, i bet there are "at least" 127 girls that are 'just like that' in the whole country, unless you are reffering to America as the continent, but well
awesome writing u did here Milkis, please keep up the hard and awesome job, but try not to write anymore until I finish my exams xD

Part 2 was fantastic as well. I am glad you managed to have fun at the event with all the stress you were under as I have no idea how a person would prepare for an event like that. See you in Anaheim with any luck!

thanks for these writeups man, you did a great job during MLG and reading these, i gotta say you're quite baller !
|
lol, I wonder whats IdrA's reaction when his gf started trashtalking.. Was he at peace with himself? Did he egg her on? Or was he embarrassed?
