Dumb thoughts (well, mostly one)

[nagekinoki]

So, I am a Starcraft nerd. Totally. I am even more nerdy than most, because I watch competitive Starcraft 2 and I've never played it. At all.

Thus, I bring to people's attention a question of life and death importance: which Scrabble player is like what Starcraft 2 personality?

You can start facepalming now, and yes, I know this is ridiculously bad

What, they don't have any OLD characters?

[nagekinoki]

Well, they *do* have some 29 year olds...

As you know I watch (and actually play) a ton of SC2.

You're not MC--MC is crazy cocky in interviews. You're more of a Nestea or MVP.

Idra is perfect for Kenji.

Maybe I'm a not bad fit for MKP (though not quite as accomplished)--someone very skilled in a one-dimensional sort of way (my bingos compared to MKPs marine micro), but who never quite made it, and who cries on TV. Maybe better for me is BitByBitPrime: some moderate success with one-dimensional skills, then opponents adjust and he disappeared, never to be seen in GSL again...

Someone like Ron Hoekstra could be San (formerly SanZenith). Occasionally totally dominant (did you see him clean up Nestea a couple seasons ago? ridiculous!) but sometimes totally falls apart.

ps I'm watching the super tourney on VODs, no spoilers!

[nagekinoki]

Hm... does Jason Keller ~ Moletrap equate to a spoiler? :)

[synodalhaj]

That's pretty funny :-)

Commentator specifics that I get sick of:

Tasteless: Uh-oh!
Wolf: Funky
Moletrap: OH NO!
Kelly: Tourette's (for turrets)
Jason Lee: "now, would you say that building a barracks is a good idea for a Terran?"

Artosis never says anything other than super intelligent stuff. Doa was just a little bland and lacking insight. Artosis reading the build very quickly is super important.

so thanks to jamesean indoctrination I can actually relate to all of these, and...damn, you're kinda right about a lot of these! don't know about xp=boxer or myself (seriously, stop comparing me to tasteless). I almost kind of sort of miss when I was watching sc2 all the time.

[nagekinoki]

Fine. JD = Day9 then.

[magratheazaphod]

I should've known you would go there

[nagekinoki]

You're not gorilla-ish enough to be Jinro... how about Huk?

Huk looks like Ashton Kutcher anyway.
