Fun fact of the day:
Idra claims he based his name from "idrajit" -- I'm a Sanskrit PhD student and find Idra's appropriation of the name interesting. Indra is the old Vedic Hinduism Zeus-type god (maybe 1500 years old) and the affix -jit is an adjective meaning "conquered/conqueror." So, the compound word would translate as "conqueror of Indra." Quite a strong name homage!
In the classic Ramayana Indrajit is a periphery character and somewhat of a badguy.
As for proper pronounciation, as per the Sanskrit, it should be "in-dra-jit" and not "een-dra-jeet" or something else with long "ee" sounds.
So, for proper pronounciation of the great sc2 player's name, it ought to be "i-dra" and not "ai-dra" (Tastosis??) or "ee-dra". However, because I don't know what pronounciation EgIdra is actually going for, the correct pronounciation is truly up to him. But from a linguistic point of view, his name is outlined above.
And there's your Idra fun fact of the day.

Cool, can I be an Idra fan and still also be fan of TLO? ;-)
I would be a fan of Idra because he's consistent as you say, and because his macro game is just very solid. Enjoyable to watch and there aren't enough really strong Z players out there imo |

IdrA is both a good player and extremely entertaining when it comes to being a bad loser.
I have laughed countless times at all the funny IdrA demotivationals that have been circulating around here on TL  Last edit: 2010-07-27 22:15:47 |

I am signing in here for sure. It is good to see that he is maturing a bit when it comes to ingame manners, but better still to see that his game is getting better as well. Definetly a guy to follow in the coming months. 
Please don't switch to T just yet, Zerg need some winners. :D |
