I can't play T or P against my friends

This is due to a very specific reason. A little background, I usually play with two other friends, and we all talk on headsets through skype. Sometimes we'll have some practice matches with each other where two people would 1v1 while the third watches (makes for great feedback once the match is over).

Anyway, the reason I can't do play terran or protoss is that I'll always mumble catchy phrases said in the game. Too many times have I been caught repeating "Let's have a blast!" At least with zerg I don't feel the urge to mimic any of their sounds lol.

How about you turn off Skype during the game and only talk after the game?

I was observing 2 friends 1v1ing once and accidentally yelled "THOR IS HERE" when the thor appeared, giving away his tech to the other player. Was pretty funny though.

Use a program with Push-to-Talk. :S Anytime I have to use Skype I always use the mute button on my mic as a form of PTT because I can't stand having people hearing EVERYTHING.

change skype to push to talk and choose a button that isnt used in game, then don't talk all the time and there you go!

ummm... I really don't know how to respond to this. If the sounds of a race are the only thing making you play zerg, then you might have problems

You know, I have sort of the same problem... Every so often I'll start giggling and my friends will know I just heard "FROM THE SHADOWS I COME" and know DTs are on the way...

Use Ventrilo, Teamspeak or Mumble. They have a "push-to-talk" feature. No one uses Skype for gaming.
