I heard it's a bit packed in his house atm with the baby etc. Probably if they all make a bit of room you can still squeeuze in between the ferret and the guinee pigs, but only when the cat is not at home.
Oh and good luck inControl, looking forward to your GSL casting
Absolutely insane how quickly this thread degraded to hate and flaming.

Let me start by saying I am a player first, still. Yep, you can think what you want of that and call me bad or whatever but fortunately for me I am in a position where people still want me to play and I am one of those people. So I will.
I also love casting. Public speaking is one of my true passions. I gave speeches from early elementary all the way up until college where I competed in debate. It's a part of me I value very much. If I can find an excuse to yet again meld one of my passions with SC2 I will do that.
The plan as of now is to cast Code A for 1 month. They want me to cast solo and at the GOM studio. I also will be doing their show for a few episodes. In that month I will be playing on the KR server 10 hours a day (the casting gig is not that extensive) and I will be staying with Artosis (this is one of the parts that needs confirming) where I will work on the mental aspect of my game on a daily basis with one of the best minds in the business. I have connections with the SLayers house and the EG korea squad (JYP, Puma, Huk etc).
If I were to take this job it would put stress on my team as I wouldn't be able to cast EGMCS or do some of my other duties here in the Lair.
That all being said me going to korea for this extensive of a trip remains unconfirmed and just in the planning stages. It's been in the works for months now so I hope it does pan out but there are a lot of factors that could stop it from happening.
If I do go it will be mid April to mid May.
To those that are excited: thank you! This is my trip to mecca and if I can make it more worth my while to further my brand and do some casting for GSL, great! If this doesn't happen now it will some day soon.. thank you all <3
This is awesome to hear. Best of luck! Eager to hear back on working out the details.
It's weird... today I was randomly considering resubscribing to GSL soon for the first time in many months... hmmm!
Incontrol is a great caster. His knowledge isn't the most in-depth, but he is always a joy to listen to. He'll hopefully bring a whole new set of jokes and memes to GOM, since Wolf and Moletrap just borrow from Tastosis alot.
I'm very excited that he's going to be commentating in Korea! He's a natural at it so I'm sure he'll do great. My fear is that his time spent on actual practice will be diminished being a caster for GOM. To further that fear I sincerely hope this isn't paving the way for him becoming a full time caster instead of player. Completely unfounded sentiments I know but I'd still be sad.

This is great news, to have the opportunity to practice non-stop in Korea and be casting for the GSL!
Good luck out there, Geoff Keep improving and kicking ass ^^
oh god yes, oh please god yes let them replace moletrap or wolf (hopefully moletrap) with Incontrol so that I once again can view Coda A with sound :p.
Seriously though while Incontrol not being the player he perhaps once was he is definatly a good entertaining caster and in our current world with so many utterly overrated casters its a blessing from GOM that he is going there. Now if they could just grab mrbitter aswell I would be so happy.
Or why not QXC. He did an awsome job casting the few games he did. Im actually very baffled by the fact that moletrap and wolf are still casting (Khaldor is awsome) since ive never seen a positive comment about them on GOM.
You would do a fantastic job for code A. i hope you take some time out of your training to prepare for casts instead, but as a player myself i understand the desire to improve completely
Incontrol is a solid caster, but I feel like he doesn't have the necessary interest in the Korean scene to yield maximum casting potential - especially as a solo caster. I'm interested as always to see how he benefits from the Korean practice!
I'd be great to see Incontrol casting GSL I think that he would be a great addition to the team. Still love to watch him play no matter what other people say!
