i've done the sitting thing a couple of times before during the prayers/patriotic song and its always a pretty sensitive thing...people ask you why you can't be considerate enough to respect other poeple's religion/values.
so, what would you do in such a situation? i know its a fuss and nothing is going to be proved here...and its easy to just stand up for a minute, but something about it irks me the more i think about it.

The second game of the GOMTV Classic Season 2 was unusual: http://www.gomtv.net/classics2/vod/258
This Korean-commentated game is not only good, it has a very rare moment near the end: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c9OkWAzsPF4
Noting special in this semifinal game, just two great players playing a good game. http://www.gomtv.net/classics2/vod/540 Best quote: "And this DT is not stopping... well, he's stopped... OK, whatever."
Also, here are some I posted a few days ago since I couldn't wait until today :D:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oacwmzgexrI - Korean commentary, but it's a short game; one of the few times I've ever seen a pro attempt to 5pool another pro. Supposedly the soundproof boxes here were broken and Casy (T) heard a cheer from the crowd early on and figured out what Savior (Z) was doing. See how things turn out.
A four-parter in Korean with English subtitles:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PalY7VaOwdg
This epic Jaedong vs. Iris game was the kickoff to the 2007 ShinHan Proleague finals. The game is good, and the excitement of the Korean commentators makes it that much better.

So I haven't really been motivated to get back on my bike. I thought on my ride home what will be my motivation to ride my bike everyday to work. Then I had a brilliant idea. Combine 3 things that I really love, gaming, competition, and biking. So here is my challenge for those who want to take it on with me. Starting today, ending April 2, 2009 :P I welcome anybody to join today or tomorrow in my challenge to beat me in miles on your bike. Person who has the most miles will win a game of choice for either the XBOX 360 or the Wii (DS if you really want it :(). All I ask is that you sm me if you want to do this with me, and keep me updated on your outcome so I can try to beat your numbers and not give out any free stuff. Hehe. I will keep the numbers posted weekly so everyone can see where they are. Even if one person does this with me that will be enough to motivate me. :) I realize it's cold or snowing in some areas, or you're just too unmotivated to go outside so yes stationary bikes will count. Who's up for this?

This game is awesome! Its very stable now for me. No crashes whatsoever, no queing time. It's really starting to grow on me now that I can actually play the way it's meant to be played.
The combat is very fast paced and exciting and thus far my favorite aspect of the game.
Anyone playing?

Take Microsoft's installation software for example. I purchased the XP Pro Service Pack 3 cd and started the install. I see it going through it's "inventory, archive, unpack, install, cleanup" process. Looks good. Then, during the install portion, there's a file (simsun.tt_ upacks to simsun.ttc, looks like a font file) that the installation software "can't find", and it needs my help. Oh, there it is, in the temp folder the software created. Oh, but it won't accept it. I try repeatedly to accept the file and have no choice but to skip the file. The installation software can't get past this file not being part of the team and now my only option is to exit the installer, go through the cleanup process and start the whole process over again. After the 5th attempt, it works.
Honestly, developers need to include a "skip file but continue installation" option instead of having the entire installation fail because of one file that the installer can't locate.

Getting a bit tired of all the sagat spammers online. The matches are a bit challenging but most sagat players dont seem to have much skill and are easy to beat since they keep doign the same thing over and over again.
This one guy with 2000bp kept trying to jump -> hk - punch -> uppercut me. I kept uppercutting his jump and he didnt learn. Thats all he did in the three rounds.
Its refreshing when someone uses Zangief or EHonda.
