    We should also make it Funday Monday themed so we can exploit Day9's popularity to get some more money for child's play ;p

    Sen is on tilt.

    If someone sets up a paypal, I'm sure plenty of anonymous donations would start popping up

    edit:
    A bronze grudgematch where they must both attack at every 5 minute mark? Sounds good.

    I would do it but I kind of have zero experience with this kind of thing.

    Just a standard paypal account would be all we need?

    Well, we'll have to see whatever the funday monday is next week. This wouldn't be going on before next monday at the earliest. It could be some super awesome funday monday they have to do.

    "Land Banshees."

    I love it.

    Also Thor rushing is beautiful but makes me feel dirty.

    Also in that game the zerg scouted my front but his drone died, while my barracks was building a Tech Lab. He actually asked "was that a Tech Lab or Reactor? I didn't click."

    I was like....uhhh...why would I tell you that?


    EDIT: I'd love to donate but I literally have more debt on my credit card than I do cash in my bank account, so until my gigs in December I can't actually buy anything :X

    You know, we could do a variety of silly games to make a really interesting show. Like, one match where the players only build one unit type that they secretly tell the casters but not each other. Or a match of nothing but air units, or only tier1 units, etc etc.

    Whoever casts needs a reliable HQ stream.

    Trus I would add DMR to that list on account to his tendency to crush his way through forum tournaments when he's out of practice.

    Though almost anyone who volunteers will probably be fine.

    3clipse: do you just rush the 1 thor and attack? My current strategy v zerg is 1rax factory, pump marauders to deal with pesky roaches, and push as soon as i have 2 thors. Does the one generally work better?

    No idea. But 1 thor + marines + hellions + scvs works super well. Mine's really unpolished and it still works; I can probably shave at least a minute off it right now.

    Is there a trick to good macro/apm with protoss? Specifically, probes. Do I queue up just 1 or 2 at a time, and constantly hotkey to check and produce another when 1 finishes?

    edit: I often find myself doing batches of probes. I'll do something like amass my army to drain my minerals, then move them out for a push. While I'm out there, I select my nexus(es) and spame E, and chrono boost them (or chrono boost upgrades or robo). Then I let that take care of itself while I micro the battle.

    Holy crap. Guys.

    Holy ...crap. I, bored at work in the afternoon, fired off a somewhat-dickish callout, certainly not my finest hour, absolutely something I thought would go nowhere.

    You all have turned it into an awesome charity event? It's going to be casted? Casted?

    I know this community is incredible, but I was not prepared for this level of win. :D Clearly, JoeK is free to accept or reject the original terms as he likes. If I lose, I will stand by my word and race-switch for the rest of season 1. Also, I'm in for $50, since I believe Joe said he was, and it seems only fair.

    I'm going to have to actually learn how to play now, aren't I?

    If either you or Joe are online anytime I'll message you, and try an' do what I can to help coach you. Unless you don't want it, that is. It's easier if we've both got mumble, but in game is great too.

    This thing is going to be beast.
