Thanks for reminding me about this. I think we have to rework this one, considering recent events. I might have jumped the gun when the twitter came out, something seemed up back then. I think he is happy now anyway. Maybe something like an encouragement now that things are going full steam on SC2. I don't know. The actual Jaedong fans can take over too. It was amazing to see a lot of volunteers for this project. Maybe we can have this organized in the future, hopefully on a more positive note.
Needless to say, spoilers for those who missed yesterday's results
But first, this project might take a month or so to complete. Jaedong needs our support now.
Please tweet Jaedong your support and words of encouragement now:
@jd1231231
maybe we can use #tl<3jaedong
Now with this project,

I am not the biggest Jaedong fan, in fact I am not a Jaedong fan at all, as fan goes. But I'm sure my feeling is similar to others when I read this tweet above. Jaedong is one of the hardest working and most skilled players of all time, and to see him plunged this low is devastating. I think we as a community could do much to help him pick up himself and to regain his form as the Tyrant once more, be it in BW or SC2.
Project summary:
This would be like the A Zergling for Jaedong Project but the goal now is to encourage Jaedong, to remind him that he is one of the greatest, and give him the confidence to once again become:
THE PROJECT/MAGAZINE
This are just how I imagine them, if there are any ideas/comments please feel free to chime in.
Project Summary
The project will be a collection of our posts, words of encouragement, your pictures with "Go Jaedong" whatever, fan art, BR or Analysis of his epic games, etc. You may use your TL ID or real name, depending on you. We shall compile them into a magazine format, to be delivered to Jaedong himself.

For Everyone Else
If you can't volunteer on any of the tasks listed above, you can still contribute greaty by posting in this thread your inspirational/encouragement posts, fan art (ms paint, photoshop, hand drawn, what have you), picture of you cheering for Jaedong (click here for awesome example), or any art/stuff you have pertinent to this project. If you can, please post with the following format:
Name/ID (Country)
Message
example:
Crypto (Germany)
Jeadong you must never forget that your fans will allways support you, no matter what results you get and no matter what game you play. We KNOW that you can do it and we KNOW that you are still the greathest and whatever it may be that bothers your mind, let it go, just be yourself and play the game you love like you love it.
Some people beleve in God, we beleve in the TYRANT!
Brave and Awesome Volunteers
1. supernovamaniac - bag man, give it to him, he will deliver it to Jaedong!
2. [V] - layout team
3. commiekaze - digital/print art/all-in-one art master!
4. Comput3r - writing, layout, art!
Other Concerns
1. Someone mentioned the need to have it in eMag/wordpress format, which is a good idea. I am not a techie person, so in case this is the direction we take, we need some volunteer(s)/project leaders capable of handling that
2. While I volunteer as the pro tempory initiator of this project, someone might be more capable and more enthusiastic to take over. Don't be shy, just raise your hand.
3. We might eventually need to discuss logistics, specifically getting finances to our ground person (supernovamaniac, et al), for printing/production and delivery fees.
4. You may also send materials such as DVD, sculpture, etc. to go with the magazine. We will discuss later how to do this (supernovamaniac, et al)
5. Someone also mentioned, and yes I overlooked this, but English to Korean translators. Do we need this or do we let Jaedong read it along with a friend of his who can translate it for him. The task for this would be gargantuan.
6. Don't hesistate to post your own suggestions or comments regarding this project.

Great idea! I'll contribute for sure. I have some photoshop skills and i'm a big JD fan so i'll see what I can do!
Edit (though I could add some things) : + Show Spoiler +I was so shocked when I saw him playing yesterday... I couldnt believe that was him playing, except maybe when he almost made a come back against Rush with the cute swarm play with ultras. He soooo wasnt playing by his standard that was frustrating. Rush played well for a b-teamer, but it wasnt something gosu either and that muta/scourge fight against hyvaa toward the end of the game was horrible and pretty much cost him the game. Im almost certain that this horrible play is caused by too much Sc2 practice though :\ (and by that im not bashing sc2, but you just can't be perfect at two quite different game at the same time Last edit: 2012-04-29 12:36:55 |

| This seems like a nice gesture but to be honest it seems a bit much just because of a simple twitter post, especially since it doesn't even sound like he is depressed, what if he was just feeling contemplative like most people do at some point? Last edit: 2012-04-29 12:58:01 |

I doubt it's only for that reason, but also because he isnt playing by his standard these days and we, as fan and viewers, want to see the Tyrant back in form, be it BW or SC2 as the OP said. |

That isn't what's going on here. It isn't "a bit much" for fans to send their support. Do you follow BW? Jaedong is slumping. Everyone on his team is slumping. I am not confident Sea will advance in his group tonight, because he hasn't been winning games. |

| Jaedong, I never played BW, but I have been depressed before. There is no reason to be sad, life has lots of ups and downs, it's important to have a goal and focus on it. What I said cannot be acquired easily, to be able to setup and focus a goal you have to pass through certain difficulties in life. After hardship comes joy, of that I am certain.

| JAEDONG = ESPORTS for me, because I'll forever remember him with the Korean flag at WCG in front of a gigantic crowd cheering for him. Seeing a man serious, tired, focused, who must have worked his whole life to deserve this and proudly wave the flag of his country as a true world champion. That's when you realize this is a real sport and a real profession. That's what I like to show my friends when they ask about esports - Jaedong, because his presence instantly fills you with deep respect, even if you don't know what esports is.

VOLUNTEER: Digital/Print Art
Specific contribution: Whatever is assigned/needed (Layout or specifics)
I work (or use to work) in IT/Web/Graphics design and have a decent background in Illustrator. I have a much better grasp of Photoshop so I would prefer to do the art itself (typography, image editing, etc) rather than the actual mag layout that will I assume be gone in Quark or Illustrator but can contribute to any of that within reason. |
