Happy Birthday PX!
Letter from the Editors
Dear Readers,
Apparently, the first edition of PX did not happen exactly 52 weeks ago, so we missed the actual birthday, but I guess we'll celebrate it today anyways! In other news, exams really really suck! Once again back on the topic of PX, we have a new old feature! (new old is not a typo!)

A Walk Down Memory Lane
ManaBlue can see the future.
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=56666
Look at the day that this was written, and then go to Storks TLPD info, Record and Games, and look what happens between then and now. Hopefully ManaBlue
never got pissed of at you enough to tell you to die in a fire, because if so, I would never venture more than 10 feet from a swimming pool.
I just beat the internet, the boss was hard.

Short but sweet. Just goes to show that on TL, any thread, no matter how mundane, has the potential to become a classic.

Korean Korner
So Hello, I'm Elric
Firstly, this is going to be a place where I teach a tiny bit of Korean each week. Nothing heavy, no grammar. Just simple, practical phrases that I have found useful and hopefully you too can use in the future. Secondly, This is going to be a little place where I upload random interesting stuff from my current stay in the Motherland. This could be just a picture, or a small video related or not related to SC. Again, just easily digestable stuff. So let's goo~
+ Show Spoiler [Inevitable Disclaimer] +
I'm not Korean. I have no Korean blood. I cannot speak Korean fluently. In fact I've only been in Korea for 3 months. So don't go apeshit if I use a ㅔ instead of ㅐ or I offend anyone's acute nationalistic feelings. Rest assured though that I will not teach anything without being 100% that it's right.
Note on Romanization:
(Romanization is where the Korean is phonetically translated into English)
I hate Romanization and I strongly suggest any serious learners of Korean not to use it. It's just for the newbies. The problem with it is that different English speakers will pronounce the syllables differently and on an international forum like this, it's impossible for me to be accurate with it. There are different variations of Romanization and below I do my own version.
A good site to learn the alphabet is here:

Practical Korean 1: The alternative Korean thankyou
I'm guessing most of you are familiar with 감사합니다 (Kam-sa-ham-ni-da). There is an alternative, which is more informal:
고마워요 (Go-ma-wo-yo)
Or to younger people or good friends: 고마워 (Go-ma-wo)
Or to much older people and shop assistants: 고맙습니다 (Go-mab-sim-ni-da)
Random Bollocks 1
SOUND UP PLEASE
1) Contains spoiler for MST Group 1
+ Show Spoiler +
I went to the MBC Stadium and sat next to the FPView screens. It is nothing incredible, but here is Forggs bunker rush v. Firefist:

2) Contains spoiler for Proleague WStars v. SKT1
+ Show Spoiler +
Also went to the OGN Stadium for my first Proleague match. Really impressed by the atmosphere!! Fuck, its so much better than the non-semi-final/final matches of the individual tournaments. When watching a polished up VOD, I thinks its a little hard to taste it.
So here's a clip from me sitting in the middle of the audience. Tensions were running high as SKT1s initial 2:0 lead was destroyed by WStars. Best v. Mensol battled it out in the ACE Match. Everyone was on the edge of their seats when Best sneaked a shuttle laden with 4 DTs into Mensol's base...
