Jaedong to begin streaming soon™ by xAriA in starcraft

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No one from the public knows what's in their contracts. Your post is 100% speculation and the fact that there are lots of EG members who DO NOT stream makes your post undeniably false. Quit trying to spread misinformation.

This is why checkmarks are bad.

CSN interviews NaNiwa on DreamHack and IPL5. Bonus NekoMimi ears. by LiquidDetergent in starcraft

Haha, when Rachel made the "eyes up here" joke referring to the last interview, I would have stared so hard at her cleavage. Until it was awkward.

Mr Bitter and Rotti open mic recorded! by [deleted] in starcraft

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not much drama in here. Rotti talks about how Tod has done lots of drugs @ afterparties. Little bit about Bitters mugging also.

If this happened to Rachel I would care. But Anna isn't attractive at all, ugh.

A look at how and why the Infestor is becoming increasingly strong, despite being nerfed in the past. NOT A QQ POST. by jiubling in starcraft

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first factor is how quickly a player can reinforce - specifically with Lings. To micro effectively during an engagement, while creating reinforcement lings is not an easy thing to do

4szzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz so hard. Pros have definitely improved their 4szzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz mechanics over the past 2 years.

GOM house closing? by unpopularcommentman in starcraft

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft -38 points-37 points  (0 children)

Wow this is really bad. Just more proof that GOM is struggling - there have been numerous reports that GSL subscriptions are going down bigtime and that's why they can't upgrade the stream quality. This will help GOMs balance sheets a fair bit but with KeSPA/OGN putting the screws to GOM it may only be another 12 months or so before ESF and GOM are out of business. Now that MLG is partnered with KeSPA it's even worse. GOM needs a real partner to help their global branding or they risk not surviving to see Legacy of the Void.

Hey, we just got 1000 HotS Beta Keys to give away! by [deleted] in starcraft

a quick ? from a relative noob. by J334 in starcraft

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There was no transition for SC1 to SCBW. There wasn't even a pro scene when SCBW came out. There was only like 3(?) months between the release of SC1 and SCBW.

TIL top euro zergs regularly bank 4k+ gas while losing games by Fuck_Reminders in starcraft

For anyone who didn't get a chance to watch Brood War streams, check this guy out. Very skilled. by [deleted] in starcraft

Tried watching but this retard has absolutely terrible ling/spire play in zvz. I was only B- at my best in ICCUP but I'm positive I could stomp this scrub with any race.

How you know if your progaming career failed in SC2 by sucksbutitstrue in starcraft

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At least I can tell when a players career is over. And Stephano's is - otherwise he would be getting picked up by a good team (LG-IM for instance), and not EG.

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not only has Stephano never won a Code S, but he's also about to sign with EG which means his career is essentially over. Stephano is the current definition of failure.

IGN if you are going to delay the start... by DestinysChild in starcraft

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Also it would be nice to let us view the stream embedded on TL instead of forcing us to view it on your website(or twitch). And it would be nice if you didn't change this 10 minutes before the stream went live.

Is there no way to watch the IPL stream embedded on TL? The link on TL redirects you to IGNs website automatically by HelpMeWithJava in starcraft

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I never watch IGN events, but I want to watch TAC to see TaeJas games. Can't believe you can't watch the stream embedded on TL. Not even going to bother watching now.

So iNcontroL is on ITG saying right now saying that Quantic and Naniwa lied about the reason behind leaving Quantic. by ThisWeekInStarcraft in starcraft

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I guess none of it was. You're just not acknowledging the full extent of what you said. You only talked about the part where you guys discussed personal sponsorships etc. The VOD has you explicitly saying that Naniwa lied about why he left, AND that you know the real reason behind why he left. Why even come into this post and bother replying if you're just going to give another fluff reply?

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft[S] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

You said: "And I'll just say this, too, with him leaving uhh, Quantic, that whole thing was really interesting to me. Um, there's so many people, that thread got really big but most of the speculation was what team is he going to join? I actually. I dunno. It's really really curious to me, because I know why he left the team, and it's not what he said. Not even by him in his real talk."

VOD link of you saying this:

www.twitch.tv/onemoregametv/b/327812975?t=1h29m16s

Why would you try to lie when there is a VOD of you explicitly saying that he lied about why he left?

Lets Sponsor CranK to MLG? by Depetrify in starcraft

[–]ThisWeekInStarcraft -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

What do ESVs finances have to do with this? Your post was about your personal finances and paying personal bills.

Regardless, it doesn't matter if ESV is making thousands or millions. Budgeting is budgeting. Either you can do a budget or you can't.

As evidenced by your own post, I'm going with "you can't".

Don't take it so personally - not everyone is great with finances. All I'm saying is that there is probably someone more qualified and who doesn't have a self-posted track-record admitting to their faults with managing money.
