2 things I want to say to all the fags there who keep whining about beta keys: do you really have no
Genuine thing better to do than obsess over something you lack? Spend so much time trying to
Magically obtain what is probably in front of your eyes at this very minute! Think about how long you
Jabber on about a key when you could be prolonging your life exercising, studying for class,
Xanadu wasn't built in a day, took a lot of hard work, and Kubilai Khan wasn't wasting his time trying
Half-assedly to get a fucking beta key.

2nd thing I want to say is, not only are you wasting your time, but why waste space on tl? Just say
Xiexie for all the great sc2 coverage you're getting and go find something better to do. Why not write a
Dictation or a novel, just something for recreation's sake? Do something different, use more than just
6 brain cells ok? Would be really great if people all actually did something productive with their time.

Zealots should just be units, not the observers too! Obsessing over a game you love to play is great,
7 hours a day of watching though, basically just fantasizing about it instead of playing is excessive.
Verily is starcraft a great game, but honestly, the actual game itself is going to be released soon;
Gabbing away over a little key is retarded when the game comes out in a month and a half. It really
Vexes me to no end that you noobs would whine and beg this much for a BETA key! Useful as
Xenon in the atmosphere your whining is!

Well I'm not saying the game isn't good, just saying you don't NEED to have a key to enjoy what's
Kicking here, obviously you're enjoying the streams and whatnot and thus think the game is good
Enough to warrant wasting all your time begging for a key, why do you need more than those streams
To enjoy the beta? My friend Ordrlychaos was able to do a bunch of theory crafting without a key.

Yeah the game's pretty gosu though, no lies. I'm a fucking great terran, got over 1800 elo with ease,
While you guys are crying about getting a key rofl! Even my protoss is pretty great, raping platinums
With no problems. My zerg's ok, but I haven't won a zvz yet. I don't even play that much, such an easy
Park to play in. Can't play a lot because of carpal tunnel syndrome and school, and that helps me
Jerk more enjoyment from the game. Not obsessing or crying over it at all, treating it as a fucking
GAME, which is just what it is, and nothing more. Sure broodwar was a sport, but starcraft2, before
Half a year of real playing, is not yet a sport guys. You think you can't become a gosu progamer
Because you're a little behind everyone? The time it takes to learn the shortkeys and whatnot is under
4 day. Strategy takes a little more time, but just following the streams and threads should be
Good enough really. Everything is changing so fast that you're not gonna be that behind, surpress your
X-chromosome a bit you fags. Look at the latest patch, pretty big changes, and it's still only beta!
8 days after release and the game will probably feel completely different, beta experience won't help.

You'd really be better off just going and playing broodwar to practice your skills. There's still like
8000 people or even over 9000 playing on iccup still. Think about all the progamers still practicing
There? The korean scene is still largely stuck in broodwar, now's your chance to play them with the
8000+ rated guys mostly on starcraft2.

Please stop being so pathetic about begging for a key. What would you even do with a key? Be a total
Zombie and just play all the time? I doubt it. You'll probably go back to whining about something else,
K thx for beta key, but the balance sucks! This game is unplayable! Zerg is boring! You'd probably
Halt playing pretty quickly anyway, once the novelty of actually being in the beta wore out. Clearly
How childish you guys are is the real problem. All of my tips would only work on someone more than
6 years old, someone mature and rational, and if you were either of those things, you wouldn't cry beta.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not advocating giving up on the game. I think the game is great, it's really fun,
But just saying you shouldn't be so fixated on getting a beta key. Be glad when you do get one, not a
Zit waiting to get popped; just chill out! Do something you've never done before, or something epic the
X-Men would do that you've always wanted in the meantime, and quit spamming for a key!

Donuts make police less crazy than these keys are making you guys! Do you want to be lazy and give
7 speeding tickets out a day to make up for the fact that you're a sick fat fuck? Quit whining and
Crying so much about beta keys. Think I've ground the nail in deep enough yet? This is what you guys
Validly sound like! Just going on and on until your fingers bleed and my eyes burn and babies cry
8 times a minute, and you've cried wolf so much that even the wolf doesn't feel like going near you.
Maybe I'm exagerating a little bit, but it's closer to the truth than you might think. You = noob GG.
