Part 1 here: http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=102540


Hello again, as you all know iccup is still going strong, which means the legions of raging prepubescent nerds are still as obnoxious and plentiful as ever.

I don't like to respond to bad manner with my own, I'm sure you've all heard the old saying of being brought down to their level and beaten with experience. So instead I present my arguments calmly and logically, in a futile attempt to educate the ignorant masses on the finer points of this excellent game.

Firstly, the rage-quitters (i.e. hopeless cases). How am I suppose to extend a helping hand to that which is not there?

+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]

There is deep poetic meaning here, I wouldn't look for it if you're the type who wears caps backwards though.


[image loading]

People who ask questions then leave instantly, they just want to slam the door in your face. I'm surprised they don't get their penis trapped though, you have to be a huge dick to show such utter disrespect to a stranger.


[image loading]

This is the most common thing I hear. It's nice that people on iccup always tell me how lucky I am, why thank you very much!

[image loading]

Mental breakdown ensues as he comes to the grim realization that he has become enraged over a video game.

Actually I'm lying, while he was typing he lost all his probes to a storm drop.




Someone quickly tell this guy the good news!
+ Show Spoiler +

[image loading]

The :o face gives me the impression he suddenly had an epiphany. "So THAT'S why I always lose, I knew I wasn't just bad!"

Looking at the new Psionic Storm, this guy must be on the SC2 balance team.



And finally, by far my favourite excuse of all time.
+ Show Spoiler +

So it's a PvZ on Heartbreak Ridge, I'm Protoss on the right, he's zerg on the left. Probably D rank because I love to bash newbies almost as much as I love eating babies.

But wait what's this?

Total losses: 8 probes and 1 cannon that wasn't cancelled in time.

[image loading]

He's complaining about the map, even though it just helped him out? Well I guess this must be pre-emptive excuse making, a strong technique so take note.

[image loading]

So after that main base carnage the game settles down a bit, we have some unimportant chatter and I just do some sort of speed zealot attack.

[image loading]

If you just keep blaming the map for everything, eventually you could be right.

[image loading]

While all his units were at his third, DTs walked into his main and natural to hack at drones.

[image loading]

Hey don't berate me for this, I'm just stating the facts.

If you can guess what the final excuse he'll make for losing is, you win a cookie. It's not the map by the way.

Ragers are fun. This game isn't nearly as bad as any First person shooters though.

HAHA FLY!
Whenever I rage though, it's more so I get disappointed at myself. But I never rage out on someone. I get angry at myself, tap gg, and then quit. If I'm really mad, alt f4.

Lol I get that one all the time! Well, that and that a bee stung him/ got on him. When the bee got on him he had to stay still to make sure he didn't get stung and had to wait for it to "fly" away. Then a couple flies came and buzzed all around me! YOU WON BECAUSE OF A BEE AND SOME STUPID FLIES U NOOB! gotta love ragers! =D

I've paused to destroy a fly before. But the guy waited and I had a newspaper nearby to roll up and dispatch it. You can't play with a really annoying one.
