Quick update on Spawning Tool progress.<\/p>\n
Sorry that actual development of the site has been slow recently. There are various factors, but the most important one is that I have been having a lot of forearm soreness recently, so I’m trying to let my hands rest. I readjusted my desk both at work and at home, and I’m stretching regularly over the course of the day. I think it’s working, and I plan to get back into serious development next week.<\/p>\n
To stay active, though, I have made a big push recently towards marketing and content. I posted\u00a0an official TeamLiquid thread for Spawning Tool<\/a>. It’s decayed a bit, and I’m not really sure what the proper etiquette is for appropriate bumping, but I guess I’ll learn soon.<\/p>\n I’m also tweeting from\u00a0@spawningtool<\/a>. Again, I don’t really use my personal twitter account, so I’m not really sure what the proper etiquette is here, but I’ll try to avoid major gaffes. My plan is to regularly tweet interesting stats derived from replay data as a proof of concept for the site. Follow me on twitter if you’re interested in that.<\/p>\n Thanks to the amazing development work by GGTracker, WCS has released all of their replays<\/a>, which are also available on Spawning Tool<\/a> for usual browsing purposes. Almost 1500 replays is a lot to work with, and it’s actually the first time I have seen replays from some<\/a> important<\/a> Korean<\/a> players<\/a>.<\/p>\n Finally, WCS season 3 has started, so tune in<\/a> to that. I’m actually quite excited about it because Spawning Tool got a shoutout yesterday! I tweeted out that Targa has opened “3 Hatch before Pool” in 3 out of 7 games against “1 Gate Expand”s, and as you know, his RO32 opponent NaNiwa made the 1 Gate Expand popular. Kaelaris cited Spawning Tool<\/a>\u00a0in his cast when he mentioned this in game 1 as he and Apollo wondered what Targa would do… and then Targa put down a Spawning Pool first. Thankfully, Targa went 3 Hatch before Pool in game 2<\/a>, so I was redeemed there.<\/p>\n I’m really excited about seeing Spawning Tool in the wild, so I hope you find it valuable too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Quick update on Spawning Tool progress.
