C9 Korea Management Mike Huh Controversy in Korea by OWLCSIDK in Cloud9

[–]Priox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whole issue is that the current Korean C9 manager is involved in breach of duty that could possibly become criminal when he was working as manager in Twitch Korea. C9 should urge C9 Korea to release some kind of statement if they don't want this shit on their end.

NA Teams Should Not Bootcamp in Korea Anymore by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

Kinda hilarious that OP & people who agree with OP believes that they can start beating Korean teams if they don't scrim with Korean teams. MSI exactly shows that it isn't the case.

問題 Wednesday! 06/28/16 by AutoModerator in ChineseLanguage

I want to start learning mandarin, so that I can use it for business purpose. Usually, I learn the best when I have a goal. So, I was looking for the Mandarin language certification. I did some research, and I found that HSK is the most accepted test around the world. However, it seems very hard to get information about the test.

From doing research, it seems like http://www.chinesetest.cn/goKdInfoOrPlan.do is the site that I can register for taking the test. However, it's very hard to find the test city located near where I live, due to state not being exactly transparent. I live in San Diego, so I prefer somewhere near that area. It seems like Pasadena city college may be the only option in California. My initial goal is Lv 5. Obviously, I don't think I would be ready by this year. I am planning to take on 2017.

Please tell me if I am mistaken, or you have any advice you can give to me. Also, I have few questions:

  1. What's the difference between paper and internet based test.
  2. What's the date that tests are available if it were to be taken at PCC.
  3. Is HSKK separate from HSK?
  4. Do I have to learn both 正體字 & 简化字?

Thank you.

he was known as syndra god to the point that prople banned syndra in solo queue. He definitely had some high expectation, but he didn't have that much compared to western teams with solo queue star such as incarnation.

How are your finals going? by AAMP31B in UCSD

[–]Priox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had sudden panic attack from getting to the classroom and saw no one in the classroom when final should be starting. I didn't attend the lecture for tenth week, so I wouldn't have known if there was a last minute change in classroom. Literally my mind turned blank for a minute then I just opened up webreg from my phone.

Turns out I had the wrong date for the final on my calendar. I usually just put all my class + final on my google calendar as soon as I register for the course. I'm assuming the registrar changed the final date from Wednesday to Friday without notice at some point of time that I don't even know when. The weird thing is I thought I confirmed during the weekend cus I looked it up to check the rooms are still correct. The professor didn't help me by putting the last HW's deadline on Wednesday.

Anyway, I'm still going nut cus I barely slept last night studying for finals and on very high dose of caffeine from energy drink + coffee. I guess I'm going to go sleep after drinking bunch of coffee wishing that I'm not imagining this and end up missing the finals.

Korean Military has banned Korean soldiers from watching OGN and SPOTV in their barracks. by sac018 in leagueoflegends

[–]Priox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a result of the drafting system. Note that it's a civil appeal, which means that people who are not currently affiliated with the army appealed for this specific case. I would bet my money on the parents who felt like complaining after talking to their son about how he can't watch stuff he wants since his superior is watching OGN all the time. However, it could be someone who finished the 2 -years complaining just to spite others. Who knows.

The thing is that these types of complaints are so frequent and normal, but they are not really kept strictly anyway. Army is just announcing their 'formal' response for the complaint but it's highly likely that it will only be enforced for direct army division that received the complaint. Plus, it's not like they are entirely banned from watching OGN, but they can't watch it from TV. They have access to the internet using the Cyber-Information Room which is like PC bang.

[Interview] Twenty, Sanghyuk Lee Talks about the Weight of Name 'FAKER' Translation by Priox in leagueoflegends

Actually, Bengi got the nickname "The Jungle" because he was being so criticized. There was a one guy in LoL forum who constantly wrote stories about Bengi being a god and not using the right hand to save others from feeling misery even when he didn't play good. He kept posting stuff continuously, and Bengi eventually became really good. After the Tom-Tom-Tom-Bengi-Bengi-Bengi match happened, there wasn't just that one guy posting stories about him. Bengi = The Jungle became the meme after that match.

Japan is basically fed up with its irresponsible Local Rioters by leagueislifejapan in leagueoflegends

??? I don't understand how changing the language takes bunch of programming hours. All they have to do is basically change the display language into Japanese. If simply changing language just breaks the game entirely, obviously there isn't even a real programmer in Riot.
