So I was watching goatrope's channel last night only to see a virtual stalemate. Goatrope didn't have enought minerals to make a new base but the Terran was in the exact same position. Instead of the Terran player conceiding defeat (he had no unit left except SCV's) the guy too off with his Barracks and his Orbital Command. I tried to stop watching the stream but I couldn't. The stalemate is still going on as I type this. It is clear that this guy is extremely bad mannered. Just surrender. You were clearly licked and if you are reading this right now I have one thing to say to you. Shame on you sir. Shame on you for being another BM player in the great game of StarCraft. Grrr.

Stalemate is silly.

i would just call it supidity (from both sides). who cares for some lost points, the time you waste is just too precious.
Inputting special characters into chat should no longer cause the game to crash.

I have no idea what is BM about this and I'm really confused as to why so many people think that this should count as a loss.

A draw is a draw, so it is not bm to not give up a game that is not lost.

These kinds of games (and people like you bitching about them) might get Blizz starting to think that there needs to be some kind of draw feature.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Its unfortunate though. Goatrope definitely has the disadvantage of not being able to build up again.

In a contest to see who is more patient goat rope should lose.

However he is goatrope.
SCV good to go sir

Yeah, there should be a feature where you can offer your opponent a draw, or maybe an option to agree to a draw could come up automatically after say two hours.

I once played a nine hour FFA in WC3 because we both ended up stuck on an island. Not fun =/

how is he BM? It's within the confines of the game. Terran has the ability to lift off. It's a draw. If this was a proleague game, Kespa would say it's a draw and restart the game. The issue here is that there is no draw option (and that imba Terran can get draws much easier than other races).

There is no honor within the tactic of perpetual evasion (while in a stalemate.)

Grow up, take the loss. Learn from it. Play more.

There is no honor with the tactic of asking your opponent to give up when you cannot beat him.

Grow up, learn to builder a flying unit. Get the win. Play more.

Yeah but unlike goatrope, this Zean guy could have won (still can). He either doesn't realize it, or doesn't care. goat should have never told him about the stream though, now the guy will never get bored waiting.

there should be a 'draw' button, where if both players click it, it draws the game.

That doesn't actually stop BMing by a player who won't conede to a draw and wants to make his opponent quit or wait. The real way to have bnet call a draw is if you have x minutes where neither player is build anything or attacking the opponent. 10 Minutes pass without engagement or building = gg.

Hahah, that is fucking funny. In the end they ended up having a typeracer battle and goatrope won, and Zean did indeed honor it. Classic right there.

There should be a stalemate duel minigame to decide who loses, lol.

it's still better than forcing one player to lose when it should be a draw.

Exactly. People should use ladder games for practice more than anything. So what if you lose? It's not it will place you a league significantly lower that you don't get good practices.

That's the main reason I quit whenever I'm way behind. I know that to win, my opponent has to make a silly mistake or I get really lucky. But practicing for lucky moments doesn't consistently work. I believe even gretorp mentioned something of this sense.

How can you even say that when Goatrope is in the same position? I could have made a topic like this saying that Goatrope is out of units and minerals and is being BM by not leaving the game... Both people were just wasting time.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

screw that. My friend and I just barely lost a game last night in which we attacked the other team just as they were coming at our base. We both wiped out each other's bases and it was a race to see who could kill everything. It ended up going down to clif play with a few stalkers, two thors and two badly damaged bcs. We ended up losing by about 50 cc health.

But then you wouldn't be able to lift buildings for vision for extended periods of time...

And what would happen to the building if you reached the limit. Would it explode? If you just have it land when it reaches the limit, then what happens when it is floating above another building?
