You are to play your OSL ro4 tomorrow. I put everything on the line and practiced for the entire week. Through the coach's kindness, I didn't prepare for the proleague at all and focused on the OSL. I prepared extremely hard so you can all look forward to it.
1 Week of Dissecting Calm
I dunno but that is disgusting.

Imho the livereport is the best if there are many small lines like
Best sends out probe to 7 lololol ninja expo? probes makes nexus !!!!! flash going out with 3 tanks vults scouting map best only 6 goons vs 3 tanks and couple vults thats not enough OMG best wtf flash will rape his nat flash moving in!!!! MINES OMFG ZEAL DROOOP zealbomb kills 2 tanks with mines bests units die anyway 1 tank and 5 vultures left 4 facts pumping more units reinforments will kill nexus best adding gates but its too late
LRs like this give u the feeling that ur really inside the game and u can feel the excitement of the game. you get a detailed report of the game. This action-packed reporting with refreshing the page every 5 seconds in hope there is a new line is the best thing of the LR. YES EXACTLY! the problem is that it is done so badly or carelessly now that it isn't readable to feel the game.
I believe the fundamental thing is an understanding as to what these posts are for / what they are. Currently these posts serve as "Game Day" posts, which is where people come and discuss the game as its occurring, thus to someone like me who's watching it, the one liners make sense, and I don't mind them because I'm actually aware of what's happening, however it would be almost impossible to read this and understand what's occurring at all.
Now, for the people who are watching the games live and participating, these threads are a lot of fun. For those who are trying to gleam information, these things are bottomless pits, though there are a few gems of wisdom of commentary that occur about 40% of the time for analysis, however that's post game. In the end the live reporting is probably not well suited for this thread.
I feel my solution should remedy this for both parties, with no real impact on either. Worse comes to worse, it fails, thus nothings gained, but nothings lost.

Yeah I expect him to beat Calm, but Calm is no joke.

If Kwanro wins his series and so does Flash, they will play against each other in the semi-finals. I can't wait for that.

Imo you did a good job. I wasnt able to watch and just fullowed this thread. I think I fully got what was going on (speaking only of Best vs Flash, the rest didnt matter).
Just reduce the amount of caps lock typing please. But even this is arguable. I remember Day doing the live reports the same style. And nearly everyone just loved it. (Not me though)

Flash said he predicted that BeSt would use this build And while studying TvP, he found out that players like Stork and Bisu tend to play incredibly different and come incredibly prepared than usual when they play against him. I don't understand the significance of the bolded part Is he saying Best is a player like Stork and Bisu, and that's why he predicted Best would use a very different build than usual? Thanks ahh sorry I didn't add the last part -.-;;; The next part says "Blah blah Best doesn't make high templars against any other Terran but made Templars against me so I played different than usual" or something
That's when you know there really is a PvF matchup.

hmm well although the "one liner" posts don't usually have much deep analysis of the game, i don't see how they're "bottomless pits" for getting info of what's happening, as they literally describe whats happening - 4 zealots attacking flash's nat! OMGOMG 2 tanks fall! etc...

/cry ;( ok. is it the all caps? the terrible typing? (or mis-typing) what if i typed the same things but with proper spelling and not all caps?

Well, I support the idea of separate Live Report and "Game Day" threads.
The threads become funnier to read (in a bad, fanboys LOL kind of way) but it does make following things a lot harder.
I started lurking TL in late 2006/early 2007, and the info/noise ratio is quite different.
One liners should probably just stay in the stream chats anyways.

I think one liners fit in with a game day thread still, this way everyone can be happy. i'm conjuring up the Calm vs Flash Tourney thread now (One other thing I really like to do, is get like 4 pages of pre-game in the Game Day thread by posting it about 20 hours in advance, since it builds excitement and anticipation, which makes the games a lot more entertaining to be a part of).
Let's see how this one turns out, i'll probably try again if it fails, because tbh, I would be surprised if the viewership for this latest matchup is incredibly high due to it being New Years

I think it's pretty funny. I don't mind it, but I think other people might. You've been doing it forever though =\

Sorry for the double post; I think its better to have the poll on its own.
Poll: Separate LR and GD threads for OSL semis? (Vote): Yes (Vote): No
