I was playing a game earlier where a zerg went two base Ultras against me. Being the first time I ever saw it, I probably responded in a less then efficient way. But managed to keep him on 2 gas while putting bunkers at his nat full of rines.

When he tried to bust out with maybe 6 Ultras and a group or two of lings. By the end of the attack he had 2 damaged ultras left. After that he gged. I was on my main and nat with three rax and a fourth going up with, 1 fact and 1 starport. After he gged i pretty much stopped playing waiting for him to leave. about 30 seconds later i asked why he hadn't left. He then attacked with 4 ultras and a group of lings which managed to kill my natural. and eventually forced his way into my main.

Should I make a complaint to the iccup admins? Do I have the grounds to make one? Should I just suck it up?

No criticism of me that is too harsh, other criticism is fine. My blog, my place to complain.

exactly. That's entirely why he did it, because he thought there are people gullible enough to fall for it and it worked! it was an excellent strategy that paid off. Learn from it

Pretty much what everyone has said thus far. I don't play this game anymore, but you should have crushed him after you had him beaten up so badly. At the very least, never stop playing your heart out. That can pretty much be said for anything I think.

I figure it was to make you think he was leaving so you would instinctively leave the game. Sometimes a guy would say gg go re..then wait awhile, then leave after seeing I don't leave. I've also fallen for it once or twice when i would just altQQ immediately after seeing the gg.
~o~ I have returned

if they go 2gas ultras then what your main focus is, is to defeat this first army. once he loses this army he will not have no where near enough gas to replinish it. hell ill even 2fact tank vs this to ensure i can beat it

lolololol, don't we all?

Yeah...recently I was playing a TvP on Python and the guy recalled into my tanks, suiciding nearly his entire army and typed "gg." I then proceeded to confidently move my ball of unsieged tanks to his natural.

Let's just say I never saw a victory screen.
