So, I was playing a terran player on hb and I stole his gas, so he just left the game. It was under 2 minutes. Is there anything I can do to get the points, and what can do I do to get them? Feel free to close when I get an answer.

yeah iccup doesnt allow terrans to leave like that without you getting points. of course you have to file a complaint, but free points.

Dont bother man. Imagine the burden if everyone complained about deserving a win from <2 minutes games. So much work for something so stupid and then they have to deal also with the actual noteworthy complains because of bugs and whatnot; but, they cant handle everything and then everyone says iccup's staff blows.

Since it was a draw, it will not appear. You will have to use the "manual report" button--simply attach the replay.

Gas stealing is so manly and therefore you must get the points you deserve for doing it.

Gas steals are okay.

DTs are abuse and could be reported though.

I have legitimate excuses when i got to the complain list. ex: I play 40 minutes game and win but the guy drops at the end and i get no points. And sometimes iccup admins won't do anything about it. 40 minutes game and they say it's server crash, but you play a <2 minutes game and all you did was gas steal and you want points for it?!?!?! ARE YOU CRAZY?????

haha just kidding. Woo free points. Go protoss.

Well this is noteworthy. Too many quits before 2 min (gas steal or scouts cheese) and more points you lose (most likely will be banned too).

if no one reports it then people wont get punished for it. Would you want every game you gas rush a terran and have them leave before 2 mins? The penalty is there for a reason so people wont do it. Why encourage them to do it more. Its like those people who play on outsider and tries to proxy gate in t's base on first try and if they dont get it leave.

Do you think a Terran would leave if he planned to mech and a Zerg stole his gas? I might start trying that on iCCup for free points!

ICCUP has a forum you know...

I also like to leave if I am gas rushed. At my low level I don't ladder for anything, really, and I think nobody else does either. Anywhere below B- it is not worth reporting, and if reported it is not worth punishing. I would not mind -250 points, but I would mind wasting my time.

Playing a game with gas stolen is just as much a waste of time as playing a game without gas stolen. ESPECIALLY if you don't play for anything.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

How in the world do you get your arrogant answer of "anywhere below B- is not worth reporting." Wtf like that's some cutoff line where the games are intense enough to count?

Why would it not be worth punishing? Retarded logic as well, it's a legitimate move by a Protoss and Terrans need to watch out for it on two player maps. Just like Terrans can build a fucking ebay vs Zerg and prevent a 12 hatch. Just like how Zerg gets scouted quickly on 2 player maps and if they try to 12 hatch vs Toss they usually get a 14 nexus up their ass.

"wasting your time," aka you don't get to play the game you want it..? Sounds like you're wasting your opponent's time for being an incompetent player...

I always report it because I think leaving when they don't use the opening you want is lame as fuck. They can either keep losing 250/get banned or they can man up and play bw.

I thinking leaving when you get gas stolen is perfectly okay. You will lose points though so just wait it out until 2 min+ then leave. Also it's usually worth it to try, because beating a protoss who steals your gas is better than reading about sex.

for above posters:

I want to have a chance. I want good games. That is why I even said D players should avoid anyone with a 1000 points account or positive record like 3-0 because those are resets/smurfs and they will most likely get crushed and frustrated.

No, there is no cutoff line, but I am not trying to ladder up for ASL, and I am not trying to get into clans and shit.

If I waste other people's time by being incompetent there's even more reason for me to leave.

Noobs don't need easy wins, noobs need to get better. That's why I don't cheese ever! I play standard, straight up macro because I lack fucking APM! I have to get a better grip on the fundamentals and I need to get some speed! I am too weak in standard games to think about beating cheese.

The games I learn the most from are the ones where I get smashed by C tosses. Isn't that the whole pt of climbing the ladder, to play better people? What really pissed me off is D players who won't let me climb back to D+ because I join a game with 1900pts and they insta quit. I understand that theres a point where someone is so much better than you that you can't even get to mid game without being crushed, those games are pointless, but what players need to be doing is trying to raise their game to the next level, not polish it at D or whatever

I agree. I don't see what's so wrong with getting crushed now and then, from that you learn how fast you have to be in the future, and you can see how many things you need to fix in your play.

Unfortunately some iccup admins have problems recognising that when a terran sends out one of his first 4 scvs and gets it scouted arriving in your base then instaquits he probably wasn't scouting.
