This is L_Master. He likes running, StarCraft, and understanding the human mind.
The "L" in his name, and subsequently, his entire ID comes from his ability to have lucid dreams, a state of awareness that you are in a dream while dreaming. He has mastered this state of consciousness and has even written a blog on how you can do it too! Read it: http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/137954-lucid-dream-guide-the-what-why-and-how-to
L_Master, although absent from StarCraft as of late, has been missed greatly. I really like how relentlessly positive he can be, and how friendly he is to others, especially newbs who want to start playing StarCraft. He leads a clan called sGs (StarCraft Generations) as a way for new players to meet and play with each other, and regularly plays with new players and invites them to join the TL community and learn about StarCraft. I know of very few people with the same enthusiasm to want to share StarCraft with others and make friends with lots of nubs, rather than snubbing them.
His passion is distance running. Rather than sprinting, distance running requires one to have excellent endurance to cover long stretches, and he practices regularly for cross-country runs.
Today is his birthday, and I decided to make this thread for him to let him know how much I appreciate everything he does, whether it be hosting tournaments, commentating, playing, practicing, making friends with new people who want to get into StarCraft, having amazingly good conversations, and being an awesome friend to have.
Anyhow, here's one of many cool things he's shown me over the years, which is this very funny-to-watch sport called "speed walking". Check it out:
I really appreciate all the work you've done for the SC(BW) community.. most of which I know is here, but I also really appreciate your hosting the BW finals parties at your place, which I was fortunate enough to get to attend on one occasion Happy Birthday <3
Hey man, I meant to ask you this a LONG time ago, are you the guy that went as Lucidity_Master on gameranger BW a couple years ago? I used to be on there and playing a lot and I met a nice guy with that name. Was never sure if that was you on TL though! If not, disregard my message. Happy birthday either way!
