POST STUFF
 I had a chance to interview Greg "IdrA" Fields on the Valor tournament, his Korean teammates' reactions to foreigner tournaments, and thoughts on trends in the foreigner StarCraft scene. IdrA and I hung out a little last summer in Korea and later encountered each other again at WCG and BlizzCon last fall, so I'm always up for hearing what he has to say. Anyhow, take a look!Peanut: What's your take on the Valor tournament so far? Was the ladder stage a walk in the park or were there times you w… More |

My life's a little insane right now, but I'm determined to bring everyone updates about the Cotter StarCraft Cup. Right now I've started a news blog over at cstarleague.org/cottercup which will have continuing updates on matchups, times, and stream locations. I'll be updating this post with new information this afternoon. The KAIST vs. Tsinghua quarterfinals match in particular will be very exciting! Stay tuned ... Edit:

Let’s face it … I’m not cut out to be an SCBW commentator – the game has been around too long and the effort involved to rival the best would be a little more than I could handle with my other activities. However, I do want to contribute to the community more than just by managing things at SC2GG and occasionally writing blogs or articles, so to that end I’ve started a podcast – The PeaPod!

I saw this little gem of an article a few days ago (actually it was pointed out to me by several people), and I’m pretty irate about it. Let’s go through the reasons why this is terrible reporting, shall we? First the nitty-gritty, and then the more substantial philosophical bits.
First off, the title: “Virtual Leagues Fold, Forcing Gamers to Find Actual Jobs.” This sounds like something out of The Onion. “Actual jobs”? Would they say that if the NFL folded suddenly and a linebacker for th… More

My Op Ed article on the Collegiate StarLeague and Korean StarCraft finally got published in the Harvard Crimson. You can check it out here - it's currently the #2 most read article on the Crimson website, which is very gratifying (let's make it #1!). Here's a snippet: "Instead of pads and helmets, this sport merely requires a computer, keyboard, mouse, and Internet connection. These tools are standard for any … More
