Same here, she seems more adept than for instance Angelhun at filling gaps and silences in the commentary. Verone is his usual chatty self.
I'm still trying to place her accent though, has an interesting ring to it, but I'm not sure what country that's from. I'm guessing somewhere in eastern europe, but I could be horribly wrong.

It's easy to play armchair host when you're not actually on the air isn't it.
Far more LOLworthy was the guy saying vindicators have crappy sensor strength because it's a marauder or mistaking a sleipnir for a cyclone.

You don't have to be a good athlete to form opinions about their performance. You don't have to be a good singer to say that a song sucks. Why do you have to be a good host to say Brianna doesn't know what she's doing?
Oh and btw, Brianna started calling the Sleipnir Cyclone first.

Please, never, ever, ever let her on evetv again. Every single person i talk to is utterly horrified by her useless blabber.
I myself want to knock my head on the table and other opinions vary from her being "as dumb as mud" to "she totally needs to die", straight through "I wish I could put a bounty on her head". I wouldn't be surprised if half the viewers just hit mute.
At the very least just tell her to only point out the mildly obvious rather than "it's a real big disadvantage if you're being jammed" DURRR

For the sake of justice I would say there are not only veterans watching this show who know all ships and stuff in the game, so it might be intentional that she sometimes say basic and obvious things. And a female voice always brings the versatility when hosting, that's why most of the news shows use both male and female voices. Come on, guys, cut her some slack!

She might just be nervous, especially if this is her first time doing this thing live with a big audience. Not to mention I can goddamn see exactly what is happening with my own eyes, so the commentators are mostly for entertainment value. She might not be the best possible commentator, but she sounds interesting compared to some of the more boring sounding guys we have had earlier. The reactions alone that she causes in some of you make her worth her weight in gold in my eyes.

That is big NO NO! You shouldn't mock people because of their accent. a, EvE is not game exclusive for English native speakers. b, i haven't notice anybody speaking 'queen's English' - which is theoretically the only correct English.
Other than that, she is really really bad. PLEASE MUTE HER.

I assume CCP intends this live alliance tournament broadcast to have a wider audience than just Eve PVP veterans:
- Massively linked to it so some of the audience will be MMO gamers but not Eve players - It will be archived on YouTube for curious potential Eve players - General interest sites like Digg etc. might link to it - Etc.
Therefore, the commentators have to keep things lively and explain what's going on at a fairly basic level, in real time. Given those criteria, she's doing fine.

Commenting the matches means telling you what you are seeing anyway - it's part of the entertainment .. same as a soccer commentator.
And let's face it .. stuff happens again and again and you have to fill in the phases commenting whether there is something actually worth mentioning or not.
To EVE bashing the commentators/participants is the same as beer and chips to soccer, who are you guys kidding. The very same guys complaining here are the same guys that will tune in next time just to have the opportunity to complain again.

She also neatly sidestepped a potential tinfoil situation which took some quick thinking. Both made errors, especially the Star Fraction bet.

I dont think she did that badly, most of the "annoying" things people are mentioning are simply a result of nerves, which make her not want to leave silent patches in the commentary.
She then fills this with observations that are obvious.
90% of you would do pretty much the very same thing.
My only advice to her would be:
Calm down, take a deep breath, you are not required to fill 100% of each fight with talk, it's better to NOT tell people obvious things to fill a "void"...an obvious thing which takes long to explain and then forces you to gloss over something /important/ happening.
tl;dr
she did fine, just needs to slow and calm down a tad.

Funny enough, all you do is talk, talk, talk on the forums, and you don't make a single worthwhile post. I guarantee you'd have been 100 times worse. Not to mention, CCP wanted them to talk about things that might seem obvious to veterans, hence the reason why CCP Soundwave asked Verone to explain the difference between Armor Tanking and Shield Tanking. I think anyone who has played EVE more than 5 hours knows the difference, but that's what they wanted.

It was a win for CCP and for me. My wife had been ignoring me as I watched the tournament, even my rofl reaction to the Jitacam commentary (pls lets have that on Youtube) did not attract any attention. Once Brianna started commenting a match she came and started watching with me, asked about what was going on and, after a few matches actually said: "Maybe I should start a character of my own...". So you know, maybe we will have something to talk about in the future. |

This. I was thinking just that as I listened to her commentary, she was explaining a lot of basics which I thought was nice for new players and spouses of players who are watching under sufferance!
Sure she made mistakes, but who cares how she pronounces Scimitar and states the obvious sometimes.

I'm not going to touch on the quality of her comment. For all I know she could be nervous or simply aiming her comment at the carebearish/newbish end of the spectator segment. I mean seriously, how many times did Verone get asked to comment on the difference between armour and shield tanking? Are you guys gonna tell me the lot of you didn't know all that within 6 months of playing Eve? Looks to me like the commentators are making an effort to at least occasionally make the commentary accessible to people whose experiences in either Eve or PvP are somewhat limited.
Now as for her accent... everyone has one. Her command of the English language is good enough to be understood by the masses; sounds to me like she's comfy enough speaking it. So she mangles a couple words - it's not like English language spelling is very helpful to start with. Are you aware that the combination of letters 'ough' in English can correspond to 8 different sounds? It's not obvious at all to a foreigner that the C in scimitar is silent. I'm sure all it takes is letting Brianna know the correct way to pronounce.
People will always cringe at something or other. Frankly, I cringe at the way Verone (or most English native speakers, really) pronounces some alliance/pilot names, but you know what? It doesn't matter. His commentary is good and enjoyable. I'm sure for the newer people who wanna see what all the hype about the tournament is, Brianna's so-called obvious comments are helpful.

I believe Verone started with people having their faces kicked in, but yes the commentary and banter between Verone and Brianna were rather nice to have over the matches. As for them stating the obvious, they need to keep things at a level where non-players (or new players) can also understand what's going on to some extent. Besides the action is rather fast at times, stuff dies in an instant and they're only human there's only so much they can process all at once.
I'm pretty sure Verone could give us a high-level tactical blow-by-blow analysis of the fight, but that's hard to do live and this way more people can enjoy the videos.
If people genuinely feel they are doing so badly, apply for the commentary positions yourselves next time and see if you do better. I know I certainly couldn't do it better Live.

Point is: all commentators make erros. In my opinion, they all did good. They nicely talked throught the fights, filled the boring gaps with a few comments (some like those, some not, but you can't please everyone).
And about pronouncing *names*: "Skimitar" sounds perfect in my language.
And if you feel flaming Brianha for their pronouncing, you better also start swearing at the other commentators, who can't for the life of them pronounce "Arbeitaholics", "Rote Kapelle" (CCP Soundwave got that almost right once) or "Legiunea ROmana" (they even spelled that wrong in the schedule). They know for how long that those allies do take part in the tournament? They know for how long that they can't pronounce that right? Have they ever bothered to contact one of those allies and ask how it should be pronounced?
@all flamers One final word: please do us a favor and apply as commentator next time and let us all know about it so that we can rip your commentary apart. -- EVEWalletAware - an offline wallet manager |

Brianna did well on her first try, especially if you compare her comentary with that of the guy on the first day, she did much better than he did.
of course she sometimes lost the overview and did some mistakes, but she tried not always stating the obvious and she tried to improve. its a big difference if you talk to your ally mates or commentate for thousands of listeners. contrary to the guy on the first day, I plead for giving her another chance next weekend. besides: even the more experienced commentators made some faults. you wont get a perfect commentary - even if you try it yourself. i'm sure that most of you will fail epic trying to commentate.

Think of it this way, during all the qualifying matches the commentators get to practice and get used to it so they will be in good shape for the important battles, the finals

I am not going to bash on accents or on how peopl epronounce certain things.
I have been told many times I sound like Schwarzenegger on voicecom so we do agree I have a heavy accent. Next to that people have different ways how they pronounce certain words.
Seeing this game is developed in iceland the english player base can't really claim to have the correct way as how to say scimitar.
Now to the Tournament commentary.
Yes, mistakes were made in ship types. Now let all the people who never ever made a mistake please leave EVE. I am betting this won't cause even 1 player to be lost.
There are 2 people giving commentary during a match. And instead of expecting only the socalled insights of the l33t players we actually have someone covering the basics for the not so experienced players.
Yes she colours some things up which makes some "experts" cringe. but if you're such an expert, then why aren't you in the box giving your comments?
It's a game to have fun in and atleast the fun she has radiats from her commentary.

Some good points re her... explanations of the more boring things. And I get that now. Sorry for muting you.
If its nerves, then I can only hope she has a glass of wine or what ever to calm them for the next round. An Abaddon doesn't take minutes to go from 1/2 structure to dead... if it did those of us who fly them would be extra happy. Might be worth teaming her up with Kil2 for a match or 2.
Also, why don't the commentators have the live feed showing as well... dam that would make it much easier for you to see what's going on. Coupled with being on the field that is. (or is the Live feed not so live... mmmmm)
Relax, enjoy and think before you speak.

Originally by: Bruno Bourque Relax, enjoy and think before you speak.
I understand that a lot of professional commentators have a lot of "cheat sheets" in front of them before the match that includes player and team statistics, short reminders about anything that has happened recently, and pronunciations of unusual names. It may be helpful for the AT8 commentators to have something similar.
For example, a lot of on-air goofs might have been prevented if they had a simple list of ships on the field, with ship class, typical role, and pilot name. To help fill dead time before, during, and after the match, it might be helpful to have the alliance provide information about their recent accomplishments (especially if it involves a pilot on the field) so that the commentators have something relevant to talk about. Like, not babies.
There's a baseball commentator in my area, Tom Hamilton, that does something that very few other commentators do and that I really enjoy: He doesn't talk all the time. If he has nothing to say, then he doesn't say anything at all and he lets the sound of the game come through. Not only is it nice to hear the game itself, but it prevents a lot of awkward "saying something for the sake of saying something" moments.
The commentary this year is better than last year, and last year was better than the year before that. Being a good commentator is difficult. I think you're all being a bit too harsh on Brianna.

Quote: A scimitar (pronounced /ˈsɪmɪtər/) is a sword with a curved blade, originating in Southwest Asia (Middle East).
The name can be used to refer to almost any West Asian or South Asian sword with a curved blade, and is often thought of as having a ridge near the end. They include Arabic saif, Indian talwar, Persian shamshir, and Turkish kilij and yatağan, among others.
Brianna, you go girl. I am happy to hear stuff explained. All you haters - you really want your "internet spaceship game" all to your masculine "failproof" gender? Oh, no? Then stop being idiots.

Cheat-sheets sounds like a good idea - except... those commentating are not neutrals. They are allied with one or more of the teams in the tournament, which should be clear to anyone who watched the Agony/Hydra match. I believe one of the commentators was from Hydra?
Now, they already seem to be into the cheating and metagaming kind of way to deal with the tournament. Just imagine how much cheating and metagaming they could do with a commentator who has a cheat sheet of the opponent team? Even just minutes before the teams face off, that could mean changes that would be vital.
Yeah, I just watch the show. But still, it should not be that easy to cheat.

i m happy with the commentary.
what i hope all the commentators will do more in the next rounds is talk tactics and strategies and call pilots by their names instead of "ishtar is going into structure" say "frug in his ishtar is about to die. i can only imagine the laughter on SHC right now"
but maybe the interface the commentators are having is not the same as what we are seeing.
so yea, brianna doing well. verone enjoyable as ever. kil2 is great. angel hun good as well despite marauder mishap. darius, terrible :)

Please, get rid of her, she just don't know what she is talking about, has no insight besides stating the really obvious. Or try to explain some concept that 99.9% of people watch is already well aware of while taking a long time.

Pronunciations (from everyone) and "captain obvious" button aside, I can understand her role in commentary. But please please please just keep her out of the finals. I actually want to listen to them. I don't think anyone interested enough in the game to watch the finals (live or taped) will care about those basics as much as they will the graphics, outcome, and excitement of the match.

A lot of people told me how bad the Brianna commentary was but I watched all the videos and she wasn't nearly as horrible as people said. She made mistakes ya but so what Verone and Kil2 made tons of mistakes as well.
Darius johnson is by far the worst commentator, he isn't even paying attention or caring and when he tried to be funny he failed miserably. I like when he says "and they just dropped drones" and then 10 seconds of dead air. Pr0 commentating there, I really feel like I'm part of the battle taking place. - It's not "Play through a pre-set story, become stronger, do endgame". Gameplay is open ended, and you make your own story. Unless you're too afraid of 'pvp grief' to do anything relevant |

The hate here is hilarious: fat bitter virgins ITT!
Fact is she wasn't any 'worse' than the other commentators, at least she seemed to notice and say something when a ship started taking damage and blew up, unlike others that only worked out a ship was missing 5 minutes later. She also appears to be directing a lot of her commentary to the newer players - stating the 'obvious' in this case is not a bad thing. Indeed, imho she is one of the best commentators given that none of them are professional.

Seems to me most of the people here focus on her gender. She's not a bad commentator, although I am annoyed at skimitar too. Its just kinda sad that we get a female commentator and that's a big deal. Half the people bash her cause she's a girl and the other half defend her cause she's a girl. How come the rest of the commentators don't have their own threads? Anyway, looking forward to round 2 --------------------------------- Pillage, then burn. Everything is air-droppable at least once. There is no 'overkill.'

What I would like to see is more accurate announcing of ship destruction. Granted I may be watching it live, but so are they. Too often I saw a ship explode with no acknowledgment. Just stop in the middle of your long winded (I heard all commentators do this) explanation and state '<Team> lost a <ship type>' then continue on. I'm not trying to sound like an ass, but from what I've heard (literally) sports casters do is put the action in front of their words. - She holds me close and whispers wet, 'There are cannibals among us.' |

She gets the job done. I think she needs more in depth experience with the technical side of Eve's pvp to really connect with Eve's pvp base. I think that is why they used her though. They wanted someone with a simplistic view of the game so if joe blow watched the alliance tournament he might understand what's going on. It's pretty obvious that is the objective when you throw in stuff like armor tanking vs shield tanking. It's a good idea but I believe you need a better balance of obvious vs technical.

And don't worry honey, the way you pronounce scimitar is perfect in my native language, I do like it.
We <3 you baby
The most entertaining commentators were you and Verone during the weekend imho. Kil2 should fix his mic, its being noisy sometimes and Darius should just STFU, that 'bada bing bada boom' thing is very annoying, my headphones almost blew up. Angel Hun is quite ok imho (I am a bit bias though 'cos of the 'Hun' in his name ), he can be a bit static sometimes but still ok.
Well, and I agree with the OP about the voice sexiness. |

There are few things more disappointing than seeing a group of supposedly intelligent people rounding on one of their own over something so pitiful.

How f***ing dare anyone out there make fun of Brianna after all she has been through!
She lost her aunt, she went through a divorce. She had two f***in kids.
Her husband turned out to be a user, a cheater, and now she's going through a custody battle. All you people care about is readers and making money off of her.
SHEÆS A HUMAN! What you donÆt realize is that Brianna is making you all this money and all you do is write a bunch of crap about her.
She hasnÆt performed on stage in years. Her song is called ôgive me more (fish)ö for a reason because all you people want is MORE! MORE-MORE, MORE: MORE!
LEAVE HER ALONE! You are lucky she even performed for you BASTARDS! LEAVE BRIANNA ALONE! Please.
Perez Hilton / Tyrrax Thorrk talked about professionalism and said if Brianna was a professional she wouldÆve pulled it off no matter what.
Speaking of professionalism, when is it professional to publicly bash someone who is going through a hard time.
Leave Brianna Alone Please! Leave Brianna alone! Right now! I mean it!
Anyone that has a problem with her you deal with me, because she is not well right now.
LEAVE HER ALONE!

She's doing fine. She is trying to explain many of the more complex PvP stuff and she's doing fine. It's her first time, she's nervous, she has never been on air, probably, this can make you very agitated, believe me.
Briana, if you become single one day, be sure to call me, baby. I can just sit all day, listening to you pronouncing "sKimitar", it's sexy!

She's sadly failing fairly hard at this, but so are a lot of the commentators (see Veron's (i think it was) thoughts about the legions ups and downs)

This is understandable, but she's still not very good at describing what she's commentating at or understanding the stuff going on behind it

Same here. Darius doesn't seem to have much interest in doing the commentating most of the time. His partner is usually the one who does the commentating and he just throws in an occasional comment or a horrible joke in there. He could propably be a good commentator, if he gave it some effort. At least Brianna shows enthusiasm, I get to laugh and we get some good memorable quotes.

OK...
These are not personal attacks. They are Attacks on Ability and quality of service. She is sub par.
In the US if you can not perform your job because of a rough time. you take vacation or FMLA. The federal act that says you get three months off and can still keep your job.
This isn't a Pity party. This is about performance. I am sure she is a really good person and we would all love to chill with her and be good friends.
I will also say this. It is not just her. actually I think most of them suck except KIL2 and maybe 1 more.
Again this is about quality not fame and misfortune.

Eh. Admittedly, opinions of her performance are heavily polarized due to her gender. It swings both ways, tho. If she was good, people would be proclaiming her to be the next coming of Raptor Jesus.

Edited by: Cinori Aluben on 15/06/2010 06:59:55 I gotta say Brianna's commentary style is grinding. She can pronounce whatever however, and have an accent, that's honestly nbd to me. It's her style, her repetitiveness, lack of insight into the battle or eve in general, off-topic nonsense, cluelessness, saying way too many words without actually saying anything... then put that on top of her crappy pronunciation and english, that's when it snowballs.
CCP should require audio recordings before bringing on any commentators, perhaps run test matches to screen their top 10 candidates or something. Kil2 is awesome. Verone is pretty good as well. Darius has definite game knowledge, but is purposefully off-topic and nonsensical for the lulz. Brianna... sorry madame, no good.

Wow.
Maybe I didn't notice her commentaries as much as some of you might have. Then again, a regular female voice isn't the rarity for me that it might be for some of you (outside your Mothers calling you up from the basement).
Her commentary, in review, honestly didn't touch on the nuance of Eve mechanics. But maybe that wasn't the point. Just maybe the Gods of Eve called on her to do just what she did: Explain to more noobish types the whys and hows that you experts should already know. But, being the elite, I would think you wouldn't expect the vast noob-world to understand your elite tactics and reasons. No?
Just surprising that so many of you chose to comment on HER commentary versus some of the other inane commentary by others.
She's a chick! Don't be scared. And please keep BOTH your hands above the desk!

Sorry dude, but you sound like a butthurt white knight.
I don't think anybody who is complaining about her is complaining because they are basement dwellers, just weird that you even bring that to the conversation.
She likened the Tengu to a frigging fish during a tense game, Verone was like WTF because it was completely off-topic and added nothing. Then she goes on to explain she was getting paid ISK to mention the word fish.
Damn she sure is professional about being an EVETV commentator... /sarcasm

Ok, just finished watching the whole 2nd round and I have to agree that Briana really needs to shape up. Her commentary was slushed, rushed and gave away that she has very little understanding of the basic mechanics of EVE PVP. I do not think you can attribute this to 'commenting for newbies' as she is often saying things that make little sense or are outright wrong. But rather than just bash on the poor lass, here's a couple of suggestions on how to improve your commentary:
1) Take some time to acquaint yourself with the alliances and players (read forums, talk with other xperts, etc) and write some of this stuff down. You know who is going to be playing who on saturday, so having some insightful commentary on pilot and alliance history (in particular old rivalries) in tournaments and on TQ can help you fill those gaps with something other than fish. You did do this once or twice mentioning hero pilots from previous matches, which was probably the best part of your commentary so far.
2) Watch your fill words. You don't need to put the word 'actually' in every second sentence. The action in these matches happens fast and sometimes two or even three ships blow up while the commentator is finishing his point on how interesting it is that a webbed ship doesn't appear to be moving very fast. Try to keep your commentary short and precise and leave out unnessecary fill words.
3) If you have got nothing to say, don't. Of course this should not be taken to any kind of extreme, but it is entirely ok to have some brief pauses in the commentary where you gather your thoughts, find the next interesting point in the match and then comment on that.
4) Don't try to be funny. You're not a comedian and it's not your job to make us laugh. If you say something that ends up being funny that's fine, but if you're actually spending time trying to think of something funny to say, you're not thinking about what you're really there to do.
5) Watch the game. This may sound obvious, but in my experience (i commented on a some quake 3 arena matches back in the day) once you start talking it's very easy to forget to look at what's going on because you're focusing on what you're saying.
6) Practice. It makes perfect.

Wait. What?
I can't actually understand what you're saying. It seems that you started with trying to defend her, but then you say
Quote: Match need comment not only a cold and sharp analyze with numbers...
I think it was Verone in the match with the discophoons who was laughing, not her. No, she just sat there going on about how the discophoon team was not taking the tournament seriously.
Also, I have to say, the white knighters in this thread who bring out the sexism card do make me laugh sometimes. If it was a bloke going on about how the Tengu looked like a fish I'd be just as annoyed with him. -----------------

Can't beat a bit of scouse when you're hungry. Besides, looking at some of Verone's facial expressions, I think he is playing diplomat. So if a Geordie lad isn't going to smack the commentating under-performers, i'd say its time for the "Kirby-Kiss"

I know it can be a little nerve wracking to speak on live TV with over 15000 people watching (based on last confirmed update on the live feed), but still if you cannot commentate well enough for that you shouldn't of signed up for the tournament.
In addition, between my two characters I have about 1 year experience in null-sec, so not a great amount of experience to be an expert but I could do better than her.

I don't know, I honestly think that the previous postee of that comment was trolling us but I wouldn't put it past people to be honest. The allure of freebies will tempt anyone, especially when its pretty much an all paid holiday to Iceland. However, in my opinion whether it was an all paid trip or not, she has made herself look like an idiot in return.

Edited by: Mai Ship on 19/06/2010 21:15:36 I originally owed her mistakes to jitters, newbie exposure to a wide audience, etc, etc...
I've only been playing this game for 3 weeks (2 trial weeks ages ago, and this week as my third), and she fails to adequately answer the simplest of questions (re: Alpha damage). I'll admit, the question of Dramiels vs Wolf/Jag (also included Rifter for schnitzngiggles) was mine, I was honestly curious.
All I can say is I'm glad she did not field the question, or I would be less informed than when I started. And thanks for the helpful answer to Kil2.

I would, however I don't fair well in front of large audiences, nor am I a public speaker. However, I was saying I could do a better job speaking than herself based on the last two weeks of commentating and then today.
Also, I would not apply for something like that, although a free trip to Iceland would be quite alluring, I only have 1 year of gaming experience (two by next year). Also there will be better commentators than myself and I would not want to screw up the viewings for other people.

Ok guys. We all know how many mistakes any comentator can make. And no she may not be the smartest person on this planet we call earth. But does that mean she should get so much flack? Considering 99.9% of the people who play games are antisocial and dont go out and talk to other humans much let alone 95% of thoes guys that play only ever hear a womans voice once in 3 months and grew up learning that wemen belong in the kichen... Lets put all that aside tho... All in all she is doing a good job considering she herself probably doesnt do much socializeing outside of her room in front of her computer... wich lets be honest anyone who says they do but still claim to know more than any of the comentators is lieing. :)

No flame, sorry, but you must admit her answers are wandering at best, and nonsensical at worst. She may be intelligent for all any of us know, however a failure to articulate that intelligence correctly would lead those that do not know her (whom I would assume to be quite a number of us by all appearances) leaves us with the opposite impression. If she lacks the knowledge to answer the question, she could say as much and let the question pass to one who is better suited to answer it, but on basic knowledge, things that most anyone who has played video games for any length of time should know, the answers should not be so rambling, in all honesty. To be verbose is one thing, and I'm not sure any would mind that as it seems to be a specialty of Kil2, but to fill the space with drawn out words and gap filling noises is another matter entirely.
Mistakes will happen, yes. This is a fact of the human condition, however, making the same mistakes repeatedly causes one to call into question the ability of the speaker and thus you have things such as this thread.

The hate in the thread is either trolling for lulz (most of them obvious) or counter-trolling, or an equally lacking ability to articulate the problem. It's easier to say "OMFG she is teh suxorz and ruinzing mah srs interwebz spaseships!" than to say something along the lines of what I've already stated.
But, communication is rarely a factor in most internet based gaming, despite being communally large. If everyone were able to form well-reasoned arguments and debate them in a civil manner, would this game really be the same as it is now? A part of me says 'Not likely'. I imagine that to also be the job of people like those on the CSM, to take the rage, angst, poor grammar, and so forth, and convert it into said well-reasoned arguments for presentation, though I pity them for that fact alone.

riight.. pay no attention to the naughty people.. just listen to your own alliance mates because they are totally objective in this.
tbh all the guys going on like all this hate would originate just because she's a woman are the real jerks that treat a woman special because she's special as a woman.
We have basically the ones saying "commenting is aweful" and the ones going like "ah, you are just mean because she is a woman".
If you guys really think you get treated like this because you are a woman, you seriously have to get out more in the fresh air once in a while.

Oh, she got a free trip to Iceland! While it is sad someone would abuse these things for their own benefit, it is no surprise.
I will defend Brianna in this though: EVE is a diverse community, with players from around the globe. Players that make fun of people's accents are immature and egotistic. I've seen way too many people make fun of it, and its just disappointing to see.
On a side note, I find it hypocritical for two week old players, with no experience whatsoever in PVP, to say Brianna knows absolutely nothing and is terrible at commentating. They say they can do a better job, and I'd love to see that.

Guys, calm down.. I mean, have any of you ever heard the crap that used to spill out of John Madden's mouth? I mean, Brianna was FAR more effective at conveying a message that that guy... And he did it for what, 30 years?
"Usually the team with the most points wins the game!"
"They'll score if they can just get into the endzone."
"To get more yards, it's best to move the ball from the line of scrimmage down the field."

The whole commentary, while probably necessary, is cringeworthy!
As for Verone, I feel a twinge of embarrassment that someone who sounds like he's a Geordie should be publicly involved in this at all; he's not even wearing his Toon Army shirt which I thought was compulsory (however if he's a Mackem that explains everything)
No doubt that last paragraph has completely confused 95% of the readership, but Verone and I know what I mean

I have yet to speak about her comments regarding PvP, but given the general lack of game knowledge, simple terms and the ability to adequately explain them I did say that I was glad Kil2 responded as opposed to her. Also, if you'll read the posts following that one, I clarified the point further.
