[ReaperCharlie]

ReaperCharlie, whats yours then?

*continues to lurk*

[ReaperCharlie]

*hasn't played SCII online yet*

[ReaperCharlie]

What's your ID?

[ReaperCharlie]

ID?

[ReaperCharlie]

Thanks. Updated!

[ReaperCharlie]

BUMP

seriously we only have 6 players?

[ReaperCharlie]

RC, you should include gateways in there.

Gateways? What is this devilry?

Also either I'm retarded or Shanba's account info is off.

[ReaperCharlie]

Well.... nice.

He likes Marines and Optimus Prime, so he can't be all that bad.

[ReaperCharlie]

I then met him personally at WCG USA that October.

Omfg dude! WCG rocks! I went to WCG in 2004 when they had it in San Francisco. The Counter-Strike was intense! I don't believe they were playing Starcraft though, only WC3 Frozen Throne. Still though, it was awesome to see so many pro gamers and watch such high level competition.

Also, my friend won a free Audigy 2 ZS sound card and we all got free T-shirts, just because one of the staff overheard him yell "Motherboard audio SUCKS!!!". Yesssss, score.

[ReaperCharlie]

Ah. My memory fails me.

Were they playing in the main auditorium, I can't seem to recall seeing it on any of the screens.

Either way, I wasn't a huge SC fan in 2004, so it wasn't really my focal point of interest either.

[ReaperCharlie]

When is the next time that will be? I can't find any upcoming MLG dates online.

[ReaperCharlie]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA… those are the BEST. lmao

[ReaperCharlie]

*is jealous of Machine's red headset*

[ReaperCharlie]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[ReaperCharlie]

Also, this could be a reason too:

[ReaperCharlie]

Heh. Yeah, I was gonna comment on that as well, but refrained.

[ReaperCharlie]

Oh my GOD I just played this on my new laptop with high graphics settings.


HOLY HELL WHO KNEW SC2 ACTUALLY LOOKED BETTER THAN SC1!?!?!?

The damn campaign is worth playing again just for the beauty

plz to send new laptop too me 2 plz

[ReaperCharlie]

I thought turtling only worked as Terran. Educate me, please.

[ReaperCharlie]

Ooooohh yeah. Warpgates. F&CK YOU PROTOSS

[ReaperCharlie]

f*** I need to get in on this.

I need a new computer first though.

f*************************

[ReaperCharlie]

Haha, don't flatter yourself JD


...though I can see why you'd want to add BBM.

He's cool as sh1t.

[ReaperCharlie]

omfg that sounds crazy. I would get schooled if I played you guys.

[ReaperCharlie]

Haha, have you played Halo 3 ODST, Quagmire? At least three of the ODST team have Firefly cast members voicing them. It's awesome.

[ReaperCharlie]

Never before have I seen Marines abbreviated as "'rines."

"Hay guys look I abbreviate a seven letter word into five letters and an apostrophe to look cooler."

[ReaperCharlie]

[disclaimer]Marine here. [/disclaimer]

[ReaperCharlie]

"Oh... still £35 because Blizzard/Activision don't understand the whole "prices drop after a few months" thing like every other fucking publisher..."
*goes back to BW*

QFT, WTF BLIZZARD

[ReaperCharlie]

Speaking of Reach though, join us on Xbox LIVE

[ReaperCharlie]

Shhh I love SC2 too, I was just being opportunistic scum. HATERS.

[ReaperCharlie]

Dude, I always used to do that.

Or the equivalent of that, in Age of Empires/Kings. I'd send all my villagers into the corner to build a new town center and abandon my base.

While they were razing one base, I'd have created another just as fast. In that way, I was often able to stay alive indefinitely, or at least until I could get enough of a military advantage to raze their base(s).

Dang I really need to update my computer so I can play SC2 with you guys! Even on all the lowest settings, it's still choppy.

[ReaperCharlie]

Oh, well that's different. That's just dumb. But yeah, I am a huge subscriber to the whole "build multiple bases and control all possible avenues of movement" theory. I have yet to see how it will translate over into SC2 though. I am quite excited.

Wings of Liberty is sitting all lonely on my shelf next to my computer (well, it's sandwiched between Brood War and Far Cry, but you know what I mean). Can't wait for Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void!~

[ReaperCharlie]

Unreal Championship 3?!?!? omfg yes.

Oh wait. You were talking about that stupid Drake game, weren't you.

[ReaperCharlie]

Mafiascum Pro team.

LOL! As ridiculous as that sounds, that actually sounds really awesome and fun.

[ReaperCharlie]

"Reach".

>.<

[ReaperCharlie]

However, hotkeying multiple buildings into one hotkey? How to do that?

Select each building while holding the Shift key, then press ctrl+hotkey to hotkey all of them.

Wait, so by doing that, you can build units, one from each building, without having to select each of them separately?

WIN

[ReaperCharlie]

I play by myself...

...sometimes.

Where have you been on Halo, man?

[ReaperCharlie]

Someone go update that.

Crap is it not updated?

Who did I miss?

[ReaperCharlie]

Aye, Cap'n.

[ReaperCharlie]

As long as Blizzard is a subsidiary of Activision, there will

be

no mark-downs.

[ReaperCharlie]

many =/= any ... just sayin'

Also Flameaxe, Stef cried for like 2 hours straight last night on Halo. She was disappointed that you never play with us any more. You were always "the funniest unicorn", she said. Fritz has tried to fill that spot, and God knows I have done what I can too, but it's just not the same without you baby.

[ReaperCharlie]

Haha. So you destroyed him, and then he told you that you were terrible?

Lawlz

[ReaperCharlie]

If he thinks Zerg is underpowered, why doesn't he just play Terrans or Protoss lol

Whiner.

[ReaperCharlie]

Oh, just noticed it said "gays", not "guys".

[ReaperCharlie]

But... I thought Zerg was the easiest race to play. It certainly was in SC1.

[ReaperCharlie]

rofl what is that i dont even

[ReaperCharlie]

Wait. Sooo they both destroyed you while screaming "kekeke" in chat, while your teammate was busy... doing what?

[ReaperCharlie]

ahahahaha. So I take it you got reamed.

Good strategy on their part.

2v2 seems 300-400% more fun than 1v1.

[ReaperCharlie]

Did you do your EPYC pics yet Shanba?

Or is MS paint still AWOL?

[ReaperCharlie]

Did you do your EPYC pics yet Shanba?

Or is MS paint still AWOL?

OH! About that yeah I found it eventually.

I haven't done the pics yet but it's closing on 3 am. SO I'll get on it tomorrow.

Thanks, I expect this promise to come true.

<3

P.S. We are all now called the SCII Unicorn Brethren. Just so you all know.

[ReaperCharlie]

Look at your avatar bro.

See that spike coming out of the middle of your forehead?

Don't lie to me. You're a Unicorn at heart.

Peace and love <3

[ReaperCharlie]

Me too, about an hour and a half. But in Halo Reach!

Where are you, Flameaxe? Come back to us!

[ReaperCharlie]

Look at your avatar bro.

See that spike coming out of the middle of your forehead?

Don't lie to me. You're a Unicorn at heart.

Peace and love <3

you realize this post will be rather silly when this whole pokemon thing blows over and I go back to ROFL MAO right?

NO U



THAT IS A UNICORN IF I EVER SAW ONE.

[ReaperCharlie]

Yo Gunslinger. Could you do me a favor buddy? All you have to do is bash Ryan over the head with a beer can tonight.

Then just take him home and tell him Jesus and Charlie the Unicorn (and Obama if it helps) want him to play Halo Reach.

In his drunken/disoriented stupor he just might listen. If he does, you will become a

rich man!

If you know what I mean

[ReaperCharlie]

If that is an actual thing, that is AWESOME.

I would totally be the ghost too, rofl ABR.

[ReaperCharlie]

Got to silver league, then BEAT TWO PEOPLE WHO WERE BOTH DIAMOND IN 1VS1

IT WAS THE MOST MAGICAL THING I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED.

<-- ???

You need to get out more.

Just sayin'.

[ReaperCharlie]

Well, either that, or JOIN THE UNICORN BRETHREN, WHERE MAGIC HAPPENS EVERY DAY!

[ReaperCharlie]

You should get one.

http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-Xbox-360-60gb-w ... 500wt_1156

This is the 60GB version, vice the 20GB.

[ReaperCharlie]

from the tl.net forums

Wow... this is

really

cool.

How does one a) even COME UP with this stuff, let alone b) even BEGIN to construct it?

Simply baffling.

[ReaperCharlie]

Sorry, I haven't updated the OP for a couple months. Somebody PM me with the list of people I still need to add? Thanks <3

[ReaperCharlie]

how can you be best ranked when you have NO wins?

[ReaperCharlie]

[ReaperCharlie]

Is anyone on MS awful at Starcraft II?

I got it back when it was released, but I haven't touched it in a few months.

Hi! *waves*

[ReaperCharlie]

Ehhheheheheehehhehehe *grins evilly at Reck*

[ReaperCharlie]

I would definitely be down for trying to be the worst (but I wouldn't have to try

too

hard).

[ReaperCharlie]

lol, tentative /in

[ReaperCharlie]

May I just say that I *really* like your avatar.

Carry on.

[ReaperCharlie]

/in for Worst of the Worst despite being comfortable mid-division Gold

Quiet, you!

[ReaperCharlie]

Get a job you hippies.

I'll try to get on tonight.

Shut up before I punch you in the face!

[ReaperCharlie]

Wooooo yeah! Finally hit silver league tonight with my 2v2 partner, then we went on a 5-game winstreak. Awesomesauce.

Wait so.

5-game win streak = worst player ever?

does not compute

[ReaperCharlie]

Oh oh oh yeah I remember you saying that.

[ReaperCharlie]

For control groups, can you select multiple ones by using shift?

Such as [hold shift] 1 2 3 [release shift] [hold ctrl] 1 ?

Which would reassign armies 1, 2, and 3 to just 1 now? (and 2 and 3 would still be sub-armies)?

I'm still new to all this micro/macro crap.

[ReaperCharlie]

Yeah, that would work.

no, it wouldn't

shift-pressing a ctrl group just adds the current units to said control group, doesn't select multiples

the best way to combine them using just control group hotkeys to, say, 1, is to hit 2 shift+1 3 shift+1, which means that 1 now contains all the units formerly in 1 as well as the units in 2 and 3

thankz0rz

just got around to reading this

[ReaperCharlie]

Ok. I am finally playing SC2. I just played In Utter Darkness last night, that level is friggin' epic.

I'll check back in when I get decent again. It's been far too long, and I haven't played MP yet.

[ReaperCharlie]

Wait. The Metalopolis one is gone?

And I never even got to play it. Boo.

[ReaperCharlie]

I am undefeated. f*** yeah.
