There are so many people who play SC in Winnipeg. It's actually ridiculous.

I'm in business and some of my friends are in engineering at the University of Manitoba. I was carpooling with one of them so I would meet up with him at the engineering comp lab. First day, I looked around and there were 9 Asians playing SC. They were in groups of 3, not a part of some huge engineering Asian SC club. I sit down near one group and say something like "Whoa, sweet, StarCraft. Can I join the next game?" Obviously, they're all ~D and play hunters against eachother or comp stomp, but it's still fun.

Other days, I waited (browsed TL) until someone's game ends and then join the lobby of the next game. Everyone plays on UDP so you can even find games from across campus; however, it's harder to predict when they start or end because you can't watch.

Other times, I've been walking around campus and see some guys playing on their laptops. I start up conversation, as mentioned before, and play with them.

The inverse has also happened to me. I've been in channel winnipeg on bnet and meet some guys that join. Then, I'll meet up with them in real life. I've played hockey with a bunch of them, hang out with others, sold computer parts to others, etc. StarCraft is fantastic.

Back in high school sc was huge in my school, which is how I picked it up in the first place. We'd have big tournaments with money prizes and you could find games on lan pretty much at any time of the day. Often we'd just stay in one of the computer rooms late at evenings without anyone knowing. I remember thinking it was really awesome playing 8 player ffa on some huge map back then.

It was also a constant war between the nerds that knew a lot about computers (I didn't) and the admin, where he'd remove starcraft and lock down the harddrives, but they'd always find some way around it. Some kid even hid a keylogger in his personal computer.

at my middle school my best friend and I found a way to hook up every single cpu we came in contact with(were able to use) with SC but there were soooo many empty folders that hid it that seemed to be important (copies of read me's in some while empty in other folders) so they were never deleted. My best friend and I can only hook up to lan but its still all good. Everytime one of us wanna try a new build or cheese on the other we play(like every 2-3 days for us because we are both really creative players). He plays terran with protoss as his off-race and I play protoss with zerg as my off-race so we can have some really interesting games. I mean, have you ever seen a 3hatch-no pool pawn a DT rush?!?

Thats pretty awesome, findind a random starcraft game of you college LAN; I hope that happens to me sometime, especially since I want to play CSL.

Also, how on earth do your teachers not notice you play starcraft?! Maybe I just click loud, but between the mouse clicking and hotkeys, seems like it would be pretty obvious, and I could defintely see some people complaning about it as well.

At the University of Waterloo's Math&Computer building, one of the Windows labs has been taken over by fobby Chinese people playing DotA, with the occasional Koreans playing SC. Pretty sure some of the others have gotten very annoyed by the copious Mandarin swearing.

For me they notice, they just can't figure out what we are doing unless they play it too and then those teachers ask if they can play the winner of a 1vs1 happening in the next game and then we are all like "wait, YOU PLAY SC?!?" Those teachers actually help us keep from getting in trouble because technically, he/she is an accomplice. It was really weird when my italian teacher was visiting my computers class and saw me playing SC and said " you're good at SC(not full name, just "sc" to keep our teacher from knowing exactly what we were doing)! Do you know about TL.net?" Its sooooo awesome having teachers that play SC and will help you stay out of trouble. Who knew that SC has the power to stop teachers from punishing kids?

In grade 12, after AP exams were over we were bumming around with some math program "project" in our Calc AP classes (nothing to do since exam was done with). A friend and I decided to LAN SC but the wireless had a password so we set up an ad-hoc network. He made the network and as I was browsing the list of networks to join I see another network called "zomg sc lawl" XD. Turns out in the other Calc AP class across from us (school was shaped like an L sorta, they were like a hypotenuse away from us) was doing the same thing and also playing SC, yay
