My fellow TL members, I went from Heaven to Hell and back again just in a day. How did I do that, read on and I find out!!

As many of you here, I could do anything just for a beta account of SC2. Even with 2 B.net accounts on US server and 2 accounts on the Asia server. I got nothing. After many night of crying with my pillow, I've decided to go get one. And by that you know what I meant right?
It set me back financially, and the account is not always secured, if someone wants to screw me over they can do it.
But I'm willing to take the risk. I said to myself"Fuck! lets do it"
Yeah, yes! wawawa, I was overjoyed when I first log on to the beta server(Asia server) I almost screamed, I really dont know to discribe it, but I feel like I am in heaven, like I am having sex with the hottest girl in the universe.
My account is an used one, already in Gold league with an awful record 60-100 or something, I m not sure, cause right now I dont even know how to view the ladder yet.
So I play 2 games and ofc I get kicked in the ass. Last nigh t I was late when I obtained my account. So after that I went to sleep(class in the morning).

And Jesus Budhha, my fu*king god, today I wake up, turn my laptop on and It was black...yeah totally black, the harddisk still running, all those cutiee little beep sound you hear when your PC starts are there but the screen when completely black.
I heard that there is some problem with SC2B on laptop but fuck. I am a computer expert. I watch for temp when I play, it was completely normal. And now my laptop went half death.

So yeah, I wanted to kill myself at that moment. It was like having sex with a broken penis @_@ !!! xxxxx. 2 games and my beta is over? Do you guys know how that feel? It feels like shit!!
So I went to classes to just sit there, browse the internet with my cell try to find a solution.

Went back to my dorm, after 2 hours of trouble-shooting(I will not go into the details here). And ZOMFG...I fixed it, my laptop is now up and running again.

I never had a emotional day as today in my life. I went from joy to sadness to joy in the way that even love-heartbroken cant even compare.

I hope that people without a beta outthere can get one soon. Blizzard plz, give us more, our cry are now echoing from America to Europe all the way to Asia.

I guess thats it...for now.

PS: Can someone tell me how to view the ranking at my division and how to view your opponent's profile without add him as friend?

Dont ask me...since talking about these issue will most likely result in a ban for me. And I dont want that for sure.
I'm now in a Gold division, and to my own surprise even I just started I manage to get a pretty good record. And there are alot of scary Korean haha.

You can't believe how much we all want a key

I even downloaded single player from some random site illegally and didn't give a fuck about getting viruses and it worked. Now im bored of singleplayer and want to play online, not the same without stomping some faggy WoW players

What about 0 games and your beta is over? like the thousands of people still waiting for a beta key lol.

This is a bit dramatic, your post was pretty funny but i've seen a lot more blogs posted with pretty shitty days/situations, and they all top this

Enjoy your sc2 though, putting money down means u must have been pretty desperate!

Wow, Thats a crazy story. I couldn't imagine how I would of felt if that happened to me. lol
+ Show Spoiler +
I also bought a used beta key, but mine started in bronze...now im in gold

Well congratulations and welcome to starcraft 2 beta!
Let me give you a couple points in the right direction...

Always check for proxy rax....
Always check for proxy pylons....(in your base and out of it ofc)
Always check for roach rush w/ Z...(or sometimes fake roach where they let u see the roach warren then go straight to spire)

I was thinking the same thing. So many out of place sex references...

Anyways, I swear if I had a stable income, I would have done the same as you. However, I tell myself the second I receive/get a beta key, my grades are going to crash. I just keep telling that to myself when ever I've got the SC2 beta envy.

I've had a girlfriend for more than 8 years now so finding a girl is the last thing i m worried about.
I just tried to be funny, and maybe i failed hard at that lol. But I sure will improve next time I try it.

Idiotic post.

"Even with 2 B.net accounts on US server and 2 accounts on the Asia server."
So you admit to abusing the opt-in system with multiple accounts, nice. And then you buy one more which is illegal by itself. But whatever.

And if your laptop broke, so what? It is not end of beta for you, you don't lose the account. Overdone drama much? Also I am sure it breaking definitely didn't have anything to do with SC2, blaming it on SC2 doesn't quite back up "I am a computer expert."

To top it off, you can't find the ladder button? It's not like there are more than 5 buttons on the main (and only) menu screen of the game, dude.

Its called a blog, so I think I can here some more freedom in here.
Who doesnt abuse the opt-in system, if you are not doing so you are...meh
My laptop broke its maybe not a big deal for you but its big deal for me.
My laptop was working fine before I play SC2, and after that it went black, and you dont suspect that it has anything to do with the game?
The ladder button will only show the ranking leader board if you are high rank enough in your division. If you are a low ranker(my rank is 20ish) you cant view the ranking leader board. Its my first day in the beta and I'm sure in many people in their first day dont know this as well

So next time u should go troll some where else, stfu and gtfo !!
