I play random and when people ask me my race I tell them I'm Caucasian.

Why do people feel so entitled to know? If it's that important send a scout.

pretty rare that i see randoms

when i do i just assume they're really awful players who only know how to cheese

im generally right

sometimes they try to macro, which is cute. i just dont think you can get to a masters level as random and play truly well at each race unless you've put in absurd hours.

When to use stim, by goofy's 2v2 partner

[ ] when attacking zerg base and mutas come in to defend
[ ] when attacking zerg base and lings come in for surround
[x] when 30 marines at your main are trying to chase down mutas at your natural that will 100% fly away before you kill any (note: stim all 30 for maximum benefit)

For maximum troll EV, quit as soon as you see the lings if you don't think you'll hold, because the entire satisfaction they derive when cheesing is from watching people try to defend but fail

The last random I played openly told me what his race was. I assume it is because he is practicing the different races and wants the opponent to play their normal build. These players will probably settle on a specific race at a later time and don't want the extra advantage of being 'random'.

In other news, Goofy refused to invite me to the 2p2 clan. Someone please add Trikkur.1808 so I can rock that sweet clan tag.

I'm suffering from some strange bug where every time you message me clicking your name (which should bring up various options like add friend/invite to group/etc) does nothing.

I think that's intentional. There's a gear icon up at the top of the chatbox with all those options now.

2v2 partner (he's streaming 1v1s again) was contained on 2 bases after opening w/ failed widow mine drop vs Toss, pumped out reactored marines, didn't have stim until like 15:00 or 16:00; when I try to tell him how terrible that is and how much stim would have helped him break the contain, he's like "if I had stim earlier I would have lost, because I needed all the marines"

so tilting, he knows less about playing Terran than I do
