I recently made a post about where I'm at in my life and how I'd like to break into the competitive RTS scene. In order to remain concise in that post I refrained from delving too far into what I think about the community, but I don't think I could have said it better myself. I'm recently into the pro scene and have been getting very serious about practicing, so I'm very much where you're at with discovering the community even when it comes to Day9's #100 story. TL truly is the most wonderful place on the internet!

I'm genuinely happy to read this. I've felt the roughly same way about BW and TL.

Talent is quite overrated. No one is born knowing set theory or complex analysis or how to code in Java or how to play the piano or even how to play Starcraft. Some people might have an easier time learning certain things, but at the end of the day, everyone needs to hit the books or put in the hours to develop skill at something. You might even say that talent is just a measure of how quickly practice develops skill, not a replacement of practice.

Overall, well said, sir. TL fighting!

You're clearly a sharp guy, don't sell yourself short. My parents made many mistakes but one thing I am grateful for that they did is tell me that I could accomplish anything I really set my mind to. And it's true. Within normal reasonable parameters I can accomplish it if I actually want to. It's true. So don't sell yourself short, because it's the same for you as it is for me.

welcome to TL! ''

have u checked out the ultimate progaming FAQ yet?

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=75492

hope u love tl more and more until it becomes ur homepage and its the first thing u check when u wake up and before you sleep and while you brush your teeth and change and everything lolol


No, actually, I never ran across it! O.o Thanks a bunch, may help me keep games ordered in my head, instead of watching random games all over the place like I do now.

Although I just got up, but I did take a shower first, so I'm almost there.

And I appreciate all the compliments on my writing, even though I noticed a mistake or two. And it's even better to see how I'm not the only one that feels this way about TL. Even more proof to me that this place is the best.

Actually, I'm feeling so good I may just mass game today.

*e-hugs for everyone*

A lot of so called "talent" is passion and not genetics. "Talented" players got really good not just practicing games but thinking and analysing as well, out of passion for starcraft. Don't try to bottlehole yourself into anything because you lack "talent"

Best of luck, buddy.
