Situation #2
You have decided to be an economy whore and turn this into a long game. You take your expand with two marines, confidently knowing that the zerg can't do shit to stop you when hes dronewhoring a crossdistance map. The drone circles around and spots your fast expand before getting chased away by your marines.

You throw up your main gas, knowing you'll need it sooner or later. You see the lair morphing at his main with your scout before it gets sniped: you see three hatches total, one at his choke. Unfortunately, you weren't able to see if a den may or may not have been put down.

Income: 16
Production: 1
Unit Count: 30/36 (5 Marines)
Tech Level: 1
Map Control: Low

You can either:
A) Throw down two factories and a machine shop for the Mech!
B) Add 3 Rax + Acad for the Bio!
C) Add 1 Rax, Acad, Factory for the Quick Push!
D) Add 1 Rax, Acad, Ebay(s) for the Quick Upgrades!
E) Add 1 Fac while planning your mass air force.

Poll: What do you Do?
(Vote): Throw down two factories and a machine shop for the Mech!
(Vote): Add 3 Rax + Acad for the Bio!
(Vote): Add 1 Rax, Acad, Factory for the Quick Push!
(Vote): Add 1 Rax, Acad, Ebay(s) for the Quick Upgrades!
(Vote): Add 1 Fac while planning your mass air force.

I was tired of the wait and am just going to post these as soon as I get 30 votes.

Are we trying to win or are we dicking around? Cause the air force plan sounds really tempting at the moment, but that doesn't normally lead to victories.

Ideally you should probably try to win, but you can also dick around and get humiliated for being bad at SC.
But I'm just the maker, you can do whatever you want.

I meant "Build 1 fac while planning for your nuke rush" eh?

Your only choice after 1 fac is to "plan a massive air force"

Intimidating Caller is intimidating.
