please tell me it was an accident that you related total biscuit to game analysis...that guy is a sardine when it comes to game knowledge.
He obviously isnt analytical in the slightest. but he does however continue to get work as he is a very popular play by play caster. hes good as his niche in the casting world where as benji doesnt really fit into any niche other than being the most disliked personality in SEA.
Its a fairly big omission it changes it from something that is interpreted as mostly likely a joke to something that almost certainly isnt
Either way - it wasn't a joke, nor was it funny. It, at the very least, was an impolite Troll to the other streams and teams. He's basically saying, everyone is going to watch Xeria and Benji - when they aren't on, other streams might get a view or two...

That is something i definitely find annoying about Benji. These negative/confronting statements he makes followed up by a "just kidding" or a smiley face like that actually takes any weight off what he says.

Either way, the omitted line makes it clear it was intended as a joke, regardless of how it was received, and Xeria vs. InFi is a pretty exciting matchup.
I think we're all reading too much into the omission guys. Benji made a joke, in somewhat poor taste, to trigger this again. end of story as far as that sidetrack goes, I hope.

Yeah Chad's right. "" or not, it was still interpreted as a rude thing to say regardless of Benji's actual intentions in saying that.

Thats 100% up to interpretation, anyway lets not debate over semantics, back on topic
I have advice for Benji (and have given it to him the past), Ill continue to do so in a way i feel is more constructive (again that is my opinion and I am in no way all others are wrong, there are many correct methods)

the face changes nothing arnor. people know benji a little bit better than that. If you dont then just go watch the CH stream vods from sunday where he mentions stream numbers atleast once every series.

Would have been an exciting match up.. but InFi needed to reschedule, then after Targa made a 'bad joke in poor taste' (maybe he should of suffixed it with - :P) Benji decided not to work with InFi and just take a 'free walk over win' in the match.. so it won't be played.

What the hell, how can it be given a walkover? that's redic
I'm sure if TargA put a at the end of his post, this whole thing would have been dismissed as a misunderstanding and xG wouldn't have taken a free win over infi.

inFi couldn't align a player this week so they asked xG if they could play the 5 games next week instead, or else they asked me to forfeit them for this week.

i still stand for what i said, and ive been saying it for a while now.
And a funny thing for you guys, Ive been talking to different teams (european and us teams) and a few guys that want to sponsor teams in SEA and we talked about exposure, potential etc. Pretty much everyone that has done some research of SEA hates benji and some of them even dislikes Dox ( for the same reason of being biased.)
Oh yeah, I refuse to let benji in my tournament games and I hope the rest of inFi follows suit " :P "
