Thanks guys,

Instead of a post count, I would like to give the key to an african that has been on TL at least since March year. It's some contribution toward this community.

I will definitely drop into the IRC network to come have a chat. Glad to see some of the guys come out of the woodwork!

Well my story with SC1 happened by complete accident, =). I was lucky enough to be living abroad at the time (I was living in Romania) and during that time starcraft 1 was released and I just happened to go to a friends birthday party and behold, he had gotten the game as a present. I was instantly hooked, I bought the game soon afterwards (My first PC game) and played it like crazy. Some of my fondest memories are of me going with my friends to a cyber cafe and playing starcraft on LAN. Unfortunately a little after broodwars came out I had to return to my country of Egypt and the internet infrasctructure was still pretty weak back then so playing online starcraft had become very difficult. Yet I tried to play when I could. These past years, internet and the communication infrastructure in Egypt has took off and I want to take this opportunity to get into the starcraft 2 community and contribute as well as enjoy one of the games that I truly have a fondness towards. As soon as starcraft 2 came out I was checking the website like a madman and reading up on the different units and buildings and whatnot. Have participated in different competitions but have yet to win and I also registered on battlenet and applied for the beta but got no reply or result. My one disappointment however is that blizzard still doesn't feel that Africa is worth the time to setup a server in, and the marginalization of a community of gamers that I believe can contribute to the improvement of the starcraft gaming experience.

Not a lot of Africans online or they have not yet posted, I guess that makes me the 4th African you now know =).

HEY, I'm from South Africa and I can't speak Afrikaans at all

My parents use it when they don't want me to understand what they're saying. Jerks.

Fun fact, I nonetheless have an Afrikaans word tattooed on my arm.

I remember some years back Africa having a national team on WGT. I wonder what happen to all those folks.

They seem to not be on TL though - thats what counts right? hehe.

I saw a guy post an IRC channel where the locals seem to hang out. Will get them to join and hopefully we can get a team out there again soon!
