I've been back for a while now. If you've read one of my previous blog entries titled "The Start of Something", you'd know that everything reminds of progaming. Well, actually, only if you've read the last reply, which was made by me ... while intoxicated.

But I want all of TeamLiquid to know that I want all of you to be able to experience the joy of progaming. The true joy. The kind that I feel. Because as much as I move on with my life, the less I expect to think about progaming.

And do you know what happens?

I end up thinking about progaming even more.

I know that I say that I don't keep up with the current scene and all, but honestly and truthfully, this has been a big part of my life (even during the times when I had nothing else) ever since I was 12 years old.

So, I've been thinking of compiling a progaming/diary type of document specifically for TeamLiquid.

Please, my fellow Americans (although I am an immigrant myself), do not take any offense when I say that I remember where I was during the SKY matches between Yellow and Reach just as much as I remember where I was during 9/11.

I'm thinking of calling this document "Here and There". Now, this can go either one of two ways. Either blend in my contemporary experiences with progaming (as I've kept a hidden diary since the age of 13), or just a flat-out, straight-put, history of progaming. And when I say flat-out, all you of you should know that my previous blogs were written with the idea of some sort of restriction in mind. For example, I typed my H.O.T article in OpenOffice and I became extremely discouraged when I realized that my writing had reached almost 8 pages. This is why I left out things like his relationship with )IS)Side and his rivalry with NaDa. Because I was scared of taking up too much space.

As I'm starting college in January, I want to leave TL.net with everything I have. But as I have grown to love this site (it used to just be a fucking gigantic annoyance during my Google searches for anything progaming related), I have come to realize that this is where the SC progaming fans will always flock to. This site and nothing else.

So, in shorter words, should I mix my life in with this, or should I just keep it a bare-bones, nothing but analysis, report which covers progaming from roughly 2002 until now?

If you want my advice, I take progaming on a deeply personal level. I'm going to be 21 next year. I started following these now 20-something Korean men when I was 12. So, even though I could go either way, I'd rather go with my gut, with my life.

But, alas, like I said ... I want this to be for TeamLiquid and TeamLiquid alone. What if some newbie 5 years from now visits and says "What the fuck is this guy talking about?"

I leave it up to you, my dearest friends.

Well, if you'll remember, oTTeR (aka Boonbag), made a topic very similar to this one. But everyone agreed with his linear tale because he actually lived in Korea during this time.

However, I actually remember watching him on Game-Q during this time.

So, it is completely up to majority of you, the TL.netters.

You have a flair for writing pubbanana, so i think the personal life infused version would be the more entertaining read. With that said, personally im a cold hard history fan soo Just make sure you've got all the facts in there and ill be happy

I vote personal, it's almost always the most entertaining and it would get people who don't know the earlier years of the scene more interested in reading about it. Also, the veterans who know all about it / were there themselves, would have something to gain from reading it as they're seeing something they know about from another persons perspective which is always interesting.

go for the personal one. that's what made your blogs so unique. the style.

but as plexa said: if you could try to bring as many facts in as possible (which you did in the past by the way) it would be great.

I'm still working on it, I haven't forgotten. I was just looking at my older blogs today to get some material. It's going to be pretty gigantic.
