I think you guys are the only people that could possibly enjoy this oddity of an event.

Back story stuff:
*I go to the Evergreen State College
* I'm an RA (I know what's going on with clubs and events on campus usually)
* I play SC (duh)


Okay so I'm walking around campus and I see these signs for an SC club. There's one that's got Kerrigan's head on it from SC1 and one that's the blue Marine smoking the cigar in the spacesuit from SCII concept stuff. Advertisement reads:

Starcraft Club:
Monday-Wednesday-Friday 5-9 PM C-Dorm

Sounds intense right? And I'm thinking, "I've never met anyone from TL at school but maybe they like know about proleague and ICC and go to GG.net or something. Here's where I start to lol:

Bring some CDs in case people don't have CD Keys.

So now I'm thinking "Noobs. Don't know about the ICC download, probably don't know about ICC, probably are noobs."


So Disappointing!

Now, here's the interesting part. I look at the contact name and realize that the name sounds familiar. I ask a friend of mine and it turns out that the kid went to my high school and graduated out a year early. So then I'm like oh weird right? And then I'm looking at the roster for the school...and he doesn't go here.

This guy is 60 miles from home starting a inter-dorm starcraft club. Pretty fuckin weird!


PS
Dude if you read this website go to wiki.teamliquid.net and train these kids to be pro!

I liked the part where you judged them based on a flyer you saw without having met any of them.

As much as I feel starcraft players' pain about ignorance regarding starcraft... I really don't approve of the holier than thou attitude.

Nothing more fun than flaunting your 1v5 skills. Go rape them and have them grovel at your feet.

1v5 is for sissies.

If you're not taking on a full server alone, you're not playing StarCraft. NaDa can take fourteen people, seven on a computer, in a server, with one hand.

Don't own them too hard, now, otherwise you won't be able to foster their growth as well.

I was more reacting to the person threatening to kill me than trying to be overbearing.


I guess this wasn't as funny as I thought it was when I woke up this morning. Sorry if I offended anyone. In reality I think its cool that you guys are socializing and playing some SC. Sorry that I had a little fun at your expense.

Ok anyone around B- level can beat pretty much 90% of america without even thinking. our avg rank is D-. Everyone in the USA sucks ass basically. There are about 100 really good gamers and the rest suck.
