Phew, it's nice to have changed this blog around and made it my own, without it being totally horrible on the eyes anymore. CSS was a lot easier to work with than I was expecting! Changing Tumblrs divs has given me some trouble though.

Most popular

Would have to be the funny Whitera poster from MLG Columbus, haha the sc2 community loves White-ra and it was from an ongoing event, streamed over the internet.

There's no way to get only that post in a link atmo so http://nozerglingleftbehind.tumblr.com/page/4 the photo near the top.

Overall traffic has been really slow, since I removed my theme I haven't focused on content as much as changing the css, I'm confident I can put out some interesting content soon now though. I'm really happy with the sc2 community I find here in tumblr, everyone's so positive about the game. Depressing posts wouldn't make it very far, I have a few followers, and I'm following several other sc2 sources, it's a keen community and a great place to blog an make friends.

2nd most popular/blogworthy

Would be the coaching one! I was surprised, but a lot of folks contacted me and took me up on it. Seems like a great way to make a name for myself with the blog that people are interested in. If I was a huge site, it definitely wouldn't be feasible to offer free coaching, but I think it'd be a great way to start making a name for myself if I manage to give some more popular bloggers or just friendly folks some help with their gameplay!

3rd most blogworthy

This one got me a fair bit of respect and interest from a few folks! I think there's a popular niche for a decent player trying to go pro on tumblr if said decent player can write well about what they're experiencing. Everyone wants to play like a pro! It's an awesome game! But you have to work soooooo hard for it. The struggles and the viewpoints are interesting!

Traffic

Very low but with a small spike around the White-ra post. 32% of my 111 page hits (since the 21st of April) have been kind enough to return! Understandable since the blog was under construction for a long while.

Grand finale

The technical side of making the blog has been a surprising amount of fun. Some of the tumblr specific css has stopped me from easily making it how I want it to be, but it's now pretty close. The community is awesome, and it's fun to think of things in terms of what'll interest people, and how can I write this to make it more interesting, what I can link in, the interesting posts others have done, compiling awesome starcraft tutorials.

Additional info can be found here. TL:DR version is it's an Australian qualifier for an international tournament created by Blizzard! (If I were to get top 2 in a statewide and top 2 again in a national tourney I would be flown somewhere in South Asia to compete in the oceanic tournament... and then if I do well there... flown somewhere else for the full international tournament).

But first things first... I have to get top 2 in a tournament in Sydney to get into the Australian qualifiers. The competition compared to my current skill level, is way better than me.

________________

There have been a few comparatively small tournaments in Australia, I never really got into the scene till now so I don't know a whole lot.

What I do know though is that this man:

(pic is a link to his liquipedia page)

Generally turns up to these Aussie tournaments, picks up the cheque and/or prizes and then goes back to wrestling wombats and meditating on top of an Australian mountain (the rest of the world knows of our mountains as smallish hills).

This is Moonglade! From team Invidia. He's the only Aussie I know of who has made serious waves in sc2 tourneys overseas. Definitely a nerding god.

... So I just have to get better than this guy! Till I get to the oceania tourney at least! ^^

I feel excited and frenzied thinking of this competition. I love this game and seeing a serious competition happening like this in my country... FUCK MY LIFE I WANT THIS!!!

I'll crush this tournament and take top spot plz! Brb practicing 8+ hours a day! ^^

Fashion advertising is a bit different than other types of advertising because the focus is getting people to purchase items that they are going to wear on their body. This means that advertisers have to make the advertisements more enticing to the target audience than usual. This is why it is important that fashion advertising relay the message intended to the audience intended.

There are generally two things that an advertiser wants to relate to their target audience. The first thing is about affluence. For example, all the wealthy people wear this type of clothing. An advertisement trying to relay this message might include a beautiful man or woman with clearly expensive jewelry at a high end restaurant.
