Anyway, the reason why I'm blogging this is cos I've always admired what Day9 does, and always will. All the more when I saw how tired he was during MLG Raleigh and YET, he managed to pull through the ENTIRE event! I was so proud of him. At one point, which if I'm not mistaken was a few days ago, his internet was either down or very bad. He was so so upset. I wouldn't say that he didn't curse at his telco company cos he did (haha!), but he tried to pre-record his daily and he went to stream it later! I thought that that was very cool of him and most importantly, very dedicated of him!
So, I really do admire him. Story time!!!!
Once upon a time, someone from somewhere called Day[9] "overweight and pathetic". Calling Sean "no outside life. Has he even seen a girl?" and all other nonsense. Even going as far as to say this, and I quote, "people who play online games have no social life". I admit, I don't really have THAT much time to play, but I love watching people play. On top of that, I play on the ladder which I have strong intentions on climbing. So, whatever the someone said, obviously and clearly upset me, so I retaliated and called him "NARROW-MINDED" on my blog. The post has since been removed as although it was targetted only at ONE person, I had failed to control my anger and I had insulted this person's community. Anyway, the whole entire incident only made me get compulsively obsessed with how HUGE the StarCraft 2 community is growing to, and how many people have been affected by this game, me included.
So here's where I boast like CRAZY about the fact that Sean "Day[9]" Plott has been interviewed by...... FORBES MAGAZINE!
So, before anything else, I apologize, but to whoever who commented on who, what, when and how Day[9] is and should be, this is for you.
Day[9] is on FORBES.
Are you?! :)
I honestly don't think that I'm a mean person. But DON'T ever step on my tail. You never know what you'll be getting yourself into. :) Read his interview and enjoy! This will be especially enjoyable to e-gamers, LIKE ME <3
