So I'm sitting in programming class bored out of my mind, making endless loops inside other loops that just spam the screen with (>^_^)> kinda of depressed that I still don't have a beta key and wishing I was at home playing BW or just watching some streams when an amazing idea hits me "download starcraft from iccup and play here!" so with my new jolly idea I head on over to iccup.com to download SC and cheese the computer for a bit which takes like 30 minutes because of my high school's internet. Fast forward to 100% i open SC up and try to log into b.net "port 6112 is blocked T_T" so I depressingly go into single player and go ZvT on destination "ye ye 4pool them dumd computer terrs" so while im playing microing it up and getting my 300 apm the kids near me start looking to see what im doing and one goes "hey thats starcraft" so my head turns around to see this 4'2 black kid with an affro looking at my screen with wild eyes of wonder and exceitment. im like ya man you play?

so after 3 days of battling this kid on lan in my programming class, he's terran im zerg and its pretty much i pwn him 4-1 but he's learning fast and we have a blast. once our teacher saw us playing and he kinda just laughed at us playing on lan and walked away so thats pretty cool. so anyway back to 3 days, we go into SC and i go to create the room only to see that there is already another room made...except it had a different map...and username...and he didn't make it O_o so i jump and theirs this guy called shad0wskillet and our convo goes something like

Skillet: yo sup
Me: WTF BBQ??>!?QQ?!
Skillet: wtf? why did you change your username
Me: who are you? (I turn around and tell my buddy to join)
Skillet: lol Tom?
Me: no I'm Zack from programming who the hell is this? (buddy joins)
Joker: yo
Skillet: yo
Me: YO
Skillet: so both of you play sc?
Me: no shit who are you? (other guy called icccup.com comes in)
Me: WTF?? who are you guys!
Skillet: lol were in audio tech
Iccup.com: hi
Joker: cool were in programming room 212
Skillet: 202 :O
Me: lolololol i don't belive this go 2v2 :D

so ever since that day, yesterday, everyday during 2nd period we lan sc with the guys in audio tech, turns out they both play sc on iccup and are as big a nerds as i am.

anyway so thats the end of it, the games were taking up to much space on C: and our teacher deleted it T_T but we chill everyday and play on iccup... waiting for one of us to get a god damn beta key...

thats why im writing this blog instead of playing with them now :S

anyone else have any sc school stories? or just playing sc where others might now expect :O like a massive school library lan party :D

I rigged my dormitory with Broodwar. It all started with me and my Chinese dormmate since only two of us play regularly. We had hardcore SC matches every class break. Then everyone else in the dorm was like :O. Apparently, my other dormmates never appreciated the mechanical/strategical value of SC before until they witnessed multiple back and forth battles of Dragoon/Zealot/Arbiter/HT and Vulture/Tank/Vessel/Goliath. They would leave their studies just to watch us play. It didn't end there. My Chinese dormmate knew two Koreans in one of his classes that knows how to play decent SC.

Ha that's pretty funny. I never tried to install anything on the school computers but I had one class where we just messed around and it would have been fun if I had

Back in my high school days we hosted SC and Halo tournaments. We got to skip class for them and everything. The school let all the kids with good grades pretty much do whatever they wanted.

I won all the SC tournaments back then because all the kids in my school played SC at a disgraceful level, fastest. So they were no match for me.

Yeah I played Dota for a day in APUSH last year... teacher just kind of looked at the two of us that were playing.

Afterward I just went back to Tetris, since that sounds more like typing.
Writerdamn, i was two days from retirement

Back in high school, I infected my entire school's library computer lab with Brood War installations.

It was hilarious.

Oh and later I found out they couldn't figure out how to get rid of it so they had to reformat all the computers.

I think im more of a closet nerd. I don't like people knowing i play this old ass game. I would have a really hard time playing it in a public place other than an actual LAN, where its the norm there

Back in school in 2002 or so, we had a very weak religion teacher. We'd always just watch movies or chill out in the computer room. Knowing this, I brought Unreal Tournament with me once and copied it onto the school computer. It quickly spread onto the other computers via network, and wouldn't you know it, we had our weekly Unreal Tournament deathmatches with the whole class, including noobs and girls!
Sadly, after a few months we were told to delete it. Apparently the admin was too nooby or lazy to do it himself. Of course we didn't remove it completely, but kept one copy in some hidden file. I wonder if aga.zip still exists...

My friends and I took over a small computer lab back in high school. We installed BW on the computers and played whenever we could.
I can already see the ending
