This is probably true.
Although for me I found a guy playing SC in my the school's cafe. I was walking by and saw it on the corner of my eye. I kept walking but yelled "StarCraf!" to which he replied "Fuck Yeah!". Don't imagine your situation going quite like this but don't think it would of been bad at all if you would of just said something.

LOL! Had I been in earshot, I would have definitely contributed a w00t! to that, lol.

Ugh, no you didn't. If you did, it would have been titled "Random people playing SC". This is a pseudo brag/girl blog that you're trying to mask as something else.
At least be honest, christ.

"You play SC? Me too! That's really cool. Are you any good?" is a decent starting point. They key is to make it about her, and use SC as the ice breaker.
I mean, you already know there's one thing you have in common, which is a lot better starting point than you'll have with most women you meet, so just enjoy that and let her know that she's interesting for some reason other than your desire to touch her boobies.

How the hell did you come to the conclusion that this was a brag blog? A blog is where you can post something interesting that happened to you today. "Random people who play SC" didn't happen to me today. That would be a general thread topic. This occurred during my day, and I was curious if it happened to anyone else.

It's not yet Judgement Day and the Return of the King can yet be at hand. All you have to do is charge right into the Eye of the Storm, find your Fighting Spirit, and introduce yourself to the mysterious Outsider at the back of the class before the Shades of Twilight fall upon this opportunity. Lest it be nothing more than Fantasy, you must tap your inner Desperado and take arms against fear, your Nemesis. And should you, like Hannibal, fall at Carthage, it will not be said that you did not fight as though Chariots of Fire sped your course. And if at last the impenetrable Medusa turns your heart to stone and the Tears of the Moon fall upon the battlefield, yea, your final Requiem shall sing to the praise that it is better to have loved and lost than to have never played the game.
gg, gl, hf
Well done, sir.

Erm, exactly, so as you say it wasn't about 'random people who play SC', it was about you seeing a girl who played SC. All I'm saying is at least be honest.

at the english school in NZ i went to last year i often looked around in the cafeteria if there are any korean girls playing sc or just watching vod's etc. but only some guys did 
well if you wanna talk to her, just ask her if she got a beta key for sc2. if she didn't and you got one.. well think for yourself^^
|
ohhhhhh man, if you don't know what to say then just sit down next to her, look interested and say hi. If you managed that, it' would've been a win win situation already (allow bragging rights and your chance of hooking up is no longer 0%). Korean girl + cute factor + SC fan/player = 15/10. She's already envious being Asian + cute.

Yeah, I guess your right, but don't call it a brag/girl blog lol. I'm not going to actually approach the girl, since theres almost no time left in the semester, only 1 more class until finals, and TL in general is not the place to find girl advice .

Eh that's true, maybe brag/girl was too much, but I just did NOT get the feeling that your main theme was 'random people', when your subject line and most of your post focused on it being about a female, so I wasn't sure why you were 'surprised' with the way the thread turned out. 
Anyways, gl hf if you decide to make anything happen with it (even though it sounds like you've already made up your mind not to).

It's true that there's probably not that much point in talking to her now, but "talk to girls you know you have something in common with" isn't bad girl advice at all, if that's what you're saying.

"I wanna stick my ultralisk in your nydus canal"
Instant pimpin'.

Thanks. Truthfully, I'm not exactly sure what I wanted, but I felt the need to share with TL something that happened in MY life related to SC (almost no-one in my UNI plays starcraft), but I didn't want to post a girl blog after all the times I've railed against girl blogs. So we get this blog.

Ask her if she's always building Probes.

Let's hope that class had doors in the back rather than the front because your story is BS if door is in the front of the class.
Ask her if she wants to PvZ. Beat her a couple times and watch replays together. gg.

That's not what I'm saying . I missed an opportunity, and I know it, but I'm not going to beat myself up over it.
