women in a 99%-male field

Korean article on women in esports, translated by a member of the TL community: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/vi…

I haven't even read half the article yet, but:

Lee So-Ra: Have you ever thought 'I wish I was born a man'?

Jung So-Lim: I wish that I would be born a man in my next life every time I wake up in the morning. Be it an e-sports career or not, Korea's social system makes me want to live as a man.

GSL party a GREAT SUCCESS

Elvin and Jeremie lit fires under my ass to make it happen. Without them, and without Dean's support, none of this would have happened.

I organized a party to watch the finals of the GSL, the biggest Starcraft II open tournament right now. It's in korea, so in order to watch it live, we had to gether up at 1am. The party was hellllla last minute...

I posted on TL on Wednesday: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/vi…

and on r/starcraft THE DAY OF, because I am FULL OF FAIL: http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/…

But so many people responded! I LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE TALK TO ME ON THE INTERNET!!! I was worried that it would be just me, Jeremie, Elvin, Fritz and Dean, but.... FORTY-FIVE PEOPLE SHOWED UP! 45!!!!!!!

edit 8:22pm... it's fucking insane!!! there's a mob outside of the corner store across the street and they're just in the middle of the street, pouring beer on each other and on cars, and a police car drove by with all their lights on and HIGH-FIVED THE CROWD and everyone jumped over and banged on THE POLICE CAR WTF!! ... i saw a guy rev his motorcycle and spin out his back wheel to make a bunch of smoke, then he took off and DID A WHEELIE DOWN THE HILL! i didn't get a video of that, but holy shit!

zelda on 3ds

and i jizzed
in
my pants.

saw nintendogs+cats on their channel too. since the touch screen is the bottom one, and the 3d is the top one, they had to make a paper doll for your cat on the bottom screen for you to touch with the stylus, and you watch a representation of your hand on the 3d screen on top. that's a little awkward, but i guess they had no choice. (in old nintendogs, you just pet your doggy on the bottom screen)
