With NaNoWriMo over, my free time during the night has been mostly devoted to TSL. So far my record is 42-55 with 3088pts. Getting to D+ wasn't too bad, took longer than I expected. Than fought my way through D+ and finally got C-. Now I win a few games, than lose a couple til I'm back down to D+, and repeat said process.

My worst match up by far is ZvP, which is a bit depressing because when I used to play it was one of my best, and second favorite match up. 10-31 as zerg vs protoss. Ouch.

I'm finding it hard to adjust to how the match up is played in modern bw. I'm slowly getting a grasp on it, but being aggressive is my main problem. Especially on maps where they get a quick third with a bunch of cannons at a small choke (destination comes to mind).

ZvT is probably my best when they don't go mech, my record being 22-11. Mech isn't something I expect, as it was a very rare build back when I played. Aside from mech, just about every terran goes fast expand, which I've found is pretty easy to win against(unless it's FE mech).

ZvZ is mostly still the same, though it surprised me a few times when the zerg grabbed their natural early. My record is 9-12, which isn't too bad, if I get a tighter grip on my build orders, things will improve. Oh and building placement, I mess that up from time to time, which makes for funny situations. Such as drones going a long way mining gas because I misplaced a sunken or pool. Fun times.

Overall I'm enjoying playing BW again, though I miss more micro orientated games. I get a taste of it on occasion, like a protoss who went one base tech so I went one base mutas, was fun. I might keep playing once TSL is over, albeit much less.

Oh and apparently if you lose connection to iccup during a game, it's impossible for them to give you points. Even when the game is in the match list and a replay is provided.

Lol I lost vs Dimaga but he didn't get the points. I tried reporting it but the admins didn't give him the points haha apparently it was a "server crash" even though I had connection the whole time

i don't see why it's hard to give points if a replay is uploaded of the game. it even shows up in the match list, just no points were given. made a few complaints, got denied, made a thread, got denied. T_T i wouldn't care usually, but it was a 22min game, wanted points for it : (
