I, too, play better with a beer or two.

IdrA just took the IPL. He pretty much rolled the entire league. He isn't doing his Zerg imba cause any favors

Woh. So I started my adderall prescription last week and I play so much better on it. I can actually think about multiple things without getting overwhelmed or distracted.

5/2/2011 2:12:39 AM

^How so? Could you post a replay with you playing on it and off it?

5/2/2011 10:46:42 AM

My problem was macro based, I couldn't multitask at all because it required a lot of focus and attention. On adderall, I feel like I can pay attention to multiple things effectively. I'm floating less money, my average APM has gone from like 40 to ~75. Right now my main thing is trying to get better game sense.

I'm actually doing much better now. I've moved from Bronze to Silver, and am winning a bunch of games in silver, prolly move up to Gold next week at this rate.

So the finals for the Collegiate Star League were today. I looked at NCSU's standings. Horrendous.

http://www.cstarleague.com/league/teams/247

Anyone know any of these guys?

5/7/2011 10:08:22 PM

Wow they are horrible.

I need to take a 1 credit gym class and get them some help.

5/8/2011 3:01:44 AM

Just get an alumni account.

5/8/2011 3:18:44 AM

^^I know. I feel bad about the whole thing.

5/8/2011 1:09:56 PM

How the FUCK did we go 0-3 against UN fuckin C

I'd love to play but I lack a unity ID since I transferred

5/8/2011 6:52:30 PM

I'd be willing to play, though I probably won't be diamond until the end of the summer haha.

5/8/2011 7:17:13 PM

WTF why did I not personally receive an email from Debbie Yow about our SC team?

5/8/2011 7:35:48 PM

She wanted to save you the bad news that Idra decided to go to Kentucky instead of State.

5/8/2011 7:36:52 PM

Is it weird that I care more about NCSU's rank in a collegiate SC2 tournament than how well our basketball team did last season?

5/9/2011 10:02:01 AM

Someone find me a .edu address I can play with, I'd rather play for State then Campbell

5/9/2011 10:08:55 AM

I could dig something up maybe.

5/9/2011 12:53:00 PM

New patch out today.

Doesn't do much, but new Archon will be better.

"StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty – Patch 1.3.3 PROTOSS Archon Now a Massive unit. Range increased from 2 to 3. Cybernetics Core Research Warp Gate research time increased from 140 to 160. Gateway Sentry train time decreased from 42 to 37. Warp Gate unit train times remain unchanged. Pylon power radius has been decreased from 7.5 to 6.5. TERRAN Bunker Salvage resource return reduced from 100% to 75%. Ghost Cost changed from 150/150 to 200/100. Thor Thor now has 200 max energy, and starts with 50 energy. 250mm Strike Cannons now cost 150 energy to use (cooldown removed). ZERG Infestor Speed decreased from 2.5 to 2.25. Spore Crawler Root time decreased from 12 to 6. Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where Ghosts could not quickly EMP the same location. Fixed an issue that allowed players to stack air units when issuing a queued stop command before the units reached the end of their patrol point. Fixed an issue where unplugging your USB headset while another player was talking to you could cause a crash. Fixed an issue where the APM statistic could be artificially increased. Fixed an issue where 3D unit portraits were not animating smoothly at slow game speeds. Fixed an issue where, when viewing a replay, no text message was displayed when a player left a game. The Taiwanese hotkey to display/hide the game UI while in Observer mode now works correctly."

There are some pretty significant changes in there beyond the archon

5/10/2011 9:37:22 AM

In the spectrum of things, it isn't a significant patch.

I'd have liked the word "spore" replaced with "spine" that would have been nice.

I like the gas reduction for ghosts. Thor now vulnerable to feedback again.

5/10/2011 12:03:57 PM

Still invulnerable to Zerg.

would be fun to play in just for the fun of it.

5/11/2011 1:17:16 AM

I'm down to play. My brother and roommate probably would be too.

We're having people over tomorrow night around 10-ish to play. If you want more information, PM me.

5/12/2011 10:17:42 PM

That cybernetics core NERF is really messing up my 4gate timing.... but I think that's why they did it...

5/12/2011 11:16:57 PM

I got accused of cheating this morning in a custom 1v1 i was playing. I took that as a compliment.

The guy then proceeded to tell me I must have no life because I'm masters in all division and must play SC 24/7. He said I should go outside and breath fresh air. So that hurt. I really need to move out of my parents basement and get a job and go outside, quit playing SC 18 hours a day... this guy changed my life.

5/13/2011 10:54:26 AM

Lol. I invited you to play with my younger brother and I. We played a couple 2v2s where we go roach+marine. We were accused of using noob strat.

5/13/2011 11:01:35 AM

Yeah I like to play team games when I'm on especially with anyone from TWW.

Pretty funny, the game I ended up winning to get masters in 3v3 was on Arakan Citadel. I felt like being a dick so I put a hatchery up by the 2 natural expansions like Zags likes to do, used a spine + lings to take down both sets of rocks and double expanded. Both my teammates were freaking out, going "what the fuck are you doing! you are fucking us over!" they went on for like 5 minutes. I didn't say a word even, just kept droning up. At the 10 minute mark I started churning out mutas and had like 20 of them and just rolled the other team. Never said a word to the guys all game on my team.

5/13/2011 4:18:54 PM

^replay or it didnt happen

5/16/2011 5:27:07 PM

^You act like thats some ridiculous stunt that he pulled. Its a 3v3 map that has a 50/50 chance of both teams going macro. I've done that same strat many times before, of course I typically will tell my teammates.

Haven't been able to play as much lately, got my schedule switched at work so I don't have the long mornings. I'll probably try and get back into it sometime this week, we need to continue our domination of 2v2 Flue.

5/17/2011 7:41:25 AM

wasnt doubting he did it...calling BS on his whole story about his teammates complaining for 5 minutes and him ignoring it.

5/18/2011 6:01:01 PM

Doesn't surprise me too much. He doesn't talk too much during games. And we've had games where he will just be off in his own world doing his own thing for half the game without contributing while we win, or he will sweep in and win the game with some massive force or something after macroing all game.

Or he will just pay no attention to stuff while we lose

5/18/2011 9:02:44 PM

I didn't save the replay but I'll go back and should still have it in my previous played games and will post it.

I actually don't talk much in games often, and sometimes just zone out. I'll often ask zags when we are playing and like 15 min into a longer game ask, "are we winning?" since I'll just be macroing or not paying attention or doing some dumb nydus build.

Was just funny since the guys were just so pissed, and basically saying that what I was doing was going to cost them the game.

Yeah Zags we need to play a bit been a while. I've been busy as well so only time for a few games here and there.

5/18/2011 10:54:00 PM

^Yeah for sure.


I finally played a couple of games this morning, went back to using 11p 18h vs toss. Absolutely raped two toss with mass sling/muta.

5/19/2011 8:01:54 AM

Feel free to add me if you guys ever want to do some team games or whatev.

Finally got promoted to Silver last week, haven't been able to play a ton w/ work lately.

5/19/2011 3:05:43 PM

Have you played many team games?

5/19/2011 3:20:17 PM

obviously still no replay posted. obvious lie. nice try titans.

5/19/2011 7:10:34 PM

lol @ this guy

5/19/2011 7:36:43 PM

Who is this guy?

5/19/2011 7:58:42 PM

I really can't stand Total Biscuit

5/19/2011 9:17:10 PM

Like his voice or what?

5/19/2011 9:18:39 PM

^^^^^ you are right, you caught me.

It was a lie. In reality the game never happened. I was trying to be cool... Sorry.

5/19/2011 9:21:56 PM

^^ ill roll back to say I don't prefer him as a caster.

He is just too loud, poor knowledge a lot of the time, and he wont stop talking to let the caster WITH knowledge speak.

5/19/2011 10:10:06 PM

^^ty. Pretty lame to just make shit up like that for a message board IMO though.

5/20/2011 2:42:46 AM

I think Daropack and Titans should settle this in a grudge match.

5/20/2011 7:25:15 AM

Custom game? I want to observe.
