He's a Korean guy who is about 5'8 or so with decent English. He came up to me and introduced himself while I was working at the 2005 World Cyber Games (WCG) grand finals in Singapore.
Nothing else much to say. We said hi and then I had to get back to work.

The plot thickens!
I forgot who uhjoo is, but I for sure met someone who said they were Mensrea.
Edit: I only saw Mensrea 1 time. He never hung out with us at the players village. He was like Keyser Söze.

I think Xellos played on uhjoo's account at some point, but uhjoo himself was a different person. He mailed me one of those old Samsung keyboards all the pros used back then, he was a short guy who spoke to me in person at Singapore. He had very decent English, near enough native speaker level iirc

I remember Xellos had 1 build order for every scenario. I obbed him for 40 games in row and noted some of them down. Thou probably not really knowing what i was doing. But they worked well for a while in 2003/2004
:D

in the Starcraft latinamerican community we had an alike thing, a guy pretending to be a girl nicknamed Sakura, he also had people "falling in love" with him and shit and he apologized, it wasnt trolling same as Zia, I am curious if they turned out to be gay.

Same as frinkx actually, guy contacted me on tl.net half a year ago and asked for forgiveness. I had no problems giving him that. He's married to a woman, so presumably not gay.

wait wat? IM not getting it, Frinkx was Zia or pretending to also be a girl who you bonded with?
no no, the guy who pretended to be zia was also a close friend of frinkx. he contacted both me and frinkx and asked for forgiveness. I dunno about frinkx, but I had no problems forgiving.
And the guy is married, to a woman, so presumably he is not gay.
It puzzles me what goes through their minds I mean, I get a catfish for their lulz but to develop a personality and friends for years under a false gender... thats so bizarre

yeah tbh that was part of what fucked me. I spent a lot of time thinking about whether or not zia was a she, but he had collaborated stories going 2-3 years back in time with some other guys (who were in the know) who confirmed them. And then my brain wanted it to be true to such a degree that I placed undue weight on the stories that confirmed and not enough on what shouldve made me get that it wasn't. ;p
I think I remember the fake picture of Zia with a hole in her jeans or something. The dude was really big on cheesy power metal and people thought it elevated Zia to another level... a cute StarCraft player and metalhead, omg! The Zia/Eriador saga is one of the few things I remember from TL.net. :D Personally, my StarCraft nerd crush was on EffkA. I played with her sometimes, she was pretty good. I don't remember if she was 100% confirmed as a girl back then, but I still have her on Facebook and she's definitely legit (and still pretty hot).
fuck I should just sell some of my Pokemon cards, if no one stakes that is what I will have to do - lostaccount
