like i understand if you have an actual condition, but just watching scarlett's mannerisms and everything the whole thing seems very contrived... and physically scarlett is 100% male, so im not exactly going to give scarlett (note my constant avoidance of pronouns) the benefit of the doubt here.

Man the hotbid interview was so unbearable that I had to stop watching after 20 seconds.

Well done with the constant avoidance of pronouns. I typically go with "she/her" but that will obviously be considered condescending.

"Not only has she become one of the most successful unknown open bracket players in StarCraft 2 history but she has also become StarCraft’s most successful transgendered player, breaking down even more barriers in a sport that is dominated by men and sometimes characterized as sexist or hyper-masculine."

She is also quite unattractive. I guess he is white and not fat?

That's just exactly what transexuals are like, for a while at least, until their hormones balance out and they get used to it etc

I have went from owning every Z I faced despite having no clue what I am doing last season (like nearly 70% WR?), to losing against every one since I got my new comp set up.

I have been going 14/14 and trying to expand when I feel safe to do so. Other than that NO CLUE.

Can someone give me something concrete I can just do every single game until I start to get the feel of it? With my vs T and vs P at least I now have a build/gameplan I do every single game unless I scout something weird (unlikely given my scouting lol!).

He sounds like a really lonely guy who just wants someone to be his friend.

13/13 drone until first inject pops then ling/bling, build a macro hatch and stream/amove at opponents base.

Favorite is running lings into the main and then just casually walking blings into their nat as they forget to micro.

P.s. i hate zvz with a passion

Make sure to tell him he's taking a dumb n*gger risk if you happen to catch him jaywalking.

I'd do it, Orb seems like an interesting character.

Yeah I like orb. Prior to the "getting fired from EG" incident I knew almost nothing about him. But after hearing about the controversy and then hearing him talk on SotG (which he was quite impressive on, from a political standpoint) I decided to check out his stream and casting. So he gained at least one fan out of that whole incident.

I still think he really handled the whole thing wrong though. He should have completely denied the accusations and attacked the credibility of the replays. If the same thing had happened to me I would have been up all night figuring out how to modify the message logs in replays. If your really awesome job is at stake you don't hold anything back.

I would just say it wasn't me playing in those replays tbh, unless there is proof to the contrary.

Is character code not retrievable from replays?
