Already happened, oh Savior.
On that note though, SangHo who got chased out after being accused of cheating, and who didn't cheat, is also in this tournament.
But damn, Emperor time.

GomTV was unable to stream the games properly to the viewers. The Viewers got furious at GomTV and went to any sites with bears (Gom = Bear in korean) and bombarded the galleries to show their rage against GomTV. Lol creative if u ask me. Hope that clears it up for you.

Wow.
Thank you for the writeup.
I knew he crashed Gom, but it's a bit ridiculous to think he caused every other fan site to suffer a mild heart attack.

Even Mabinogi Gallery (Korean MMO) and SC2 Gallery could not escape the same fate. hahahaha oh my god. This reminds me of that time the Japanese (?) insulted the Korean ice skater and there was some sort of internet warfare - but bears? Also I never saw Boxer play in his prime, but it's amazing that he still commands such respect/attention.
Leave goms alone!
Or.... actually, bitch at Gomtv until they decide to shell out for some better servers. They call it the Global Starleague and they don't expect people from all around the world to tune into motherfucking Boxer play? Thats just silly.

Please tell me you weren't around for SC1. If you were and you made that joke.......... *sigh. Too soon bro. I'm still hurting. The feeling of the victims of match fixing matter for at least another 10 months.

It seems he about tripled their viewers.

I guess I was lucky as I was able to watch every second played today.

I thought GomTV was just a channel in Korea? Not a stream.

I'm pretty sure GomTV is not a channel if I remember correctly. The games are broadcasted in GomTV.com in korea and GomTV.net for global.

Oh fuck, imagine a Boxer, Nada, Iloveoov, and TLO/Idra/Cool Semifinals.
Holy shit, the views in that semifinal and final would be astronomic. (3 past bonjwas, and possibly a foreigner, returning champ).
EDIT: BLEH, Nada and Boxer would meet Ro8. Then scratch that to a Boxer/Nada/Iloveoov/TLO/Idra/Cool (Pick 4 semifinals).

I'm supprised that it could make fan sites crash. I was watching MLG here and from when Huk started his mothership against select till it finished there were probably over a post per second. I can't believe what boxer made happen can get anywhere near that rate. Plus Day[9] occasionally has that many viewers and his stream doesn't crash.

It's just amazing to see the overwhelming response this guy generates. Boxer v Nada in the Ro8 will kill the internet in Korea.
