Starcraft Anyone?

Post by mauldooku »

I'm planning on setting up another one of those massive Free For Alls that make Starcraft:Broodwar such a blast to play with friends. Anyone interested?

Oh, and leave your Time Zone, too. I'm Eastern Standard.

I'm eastern standard time. I can usually play from 1430h to 1730h/1800h (that's when the game would have to end by) and from about 1930h on till a reasonable time for sleep. Please know though, the windows box I have access too isn't mine and as such i could be forced off/ not allowed to use it so i may not be the most reliable option here. OFC I will be free on thursday, from about 1300h on on friday (halfday in school) and atleast part of Saturday/Sunday.

I might be able to play, depending on the time decided upon - unfortunately, my timezone is GMT+10, and I have exams happening at the moment, so times I could participate in would be rather limited.

Having said that, I'd probably be able to play from 00:00 GMT (start) to around 8:00 AM GMT (finish) for the rest of this week; after that, I have three days stuffed with exams, followed by a few days of playing Halo 2 at a friend's house, so that's out for me. After that, though... holidays, so things become a lot easier.

Please, no more Starcraft. Without Starcraft, I might have done something useful with my life like cure cancer or something.

SC was mediocre from day one. Yeah, I have it, yeah, I played multi for a little while, but...meh. I might dig up the disc and play for old time's sake, though. EST, times /very much/ up in the air depending on what happens when I move on Friday.

In practicing, I was reminded of the balance issues this game has.

Rule One of game design: If an equal number of Grey Knights can't do something, your regular infantry shouldn't either.

Almost makes you wonder if you could sue Blizzard.....
Devolution is quite as natural as evolution, and may be just as pleasing, or even a good deal more pleasing, to God. If the average man is made in God's image, then a man such as Beethoven or Aristotle is plainly superior to God, and so God may be jealous of him, and eager to see his superiority perish with his bodily frame.
