Well its happened for the first time in 6 months...My internet is capped

Idk if you have this where you live, but bandwidth allowance from your isp sucks. hard.

Studpid steam had 18Gbs of updates, normally im used to like 600Mb at most, so i just let it run over night and BAM capped the next morning.

Why am i mentioning this? It makes it so i cant ladder in sc2. Ok well I can, but laddering with 2 sec delay is way too annoying, try micro-ing with that?! too much.

I did manage to download all of the TL open #2 replays so im going to watch all of them over the next 2-3 days until my internet is back to full speed.

Currently my moderm is nerfed to 56k except, my internet is shared to 3 people including me so it really gets stretched. Even checking email is a 10 minute procedure.

Well for next few days i will watch replays and play minecraft lol and some dota. Which really bums me out cos i was so ready to pull 2 whole days of constant ladder!!!

Probably will just prac builds on AI if i get really desperate haha. Hmm, probably play lots of pokemon too :D
And so you know im 20, been playing pokemon for 14 years rofl NERDLIFE :D

Well, boring blog post was boring, but im off for the next few days
I WANTED TO WATCH IEM LIVE! but now going to have to track down VOD's

Oh well

GL HF PEACE

Is your connection speed faster than your modem? I.E. If you have a 1.5Bmps connection speed, but only have a 56k modem, then your connection speed is shaved down to 56k regardless. I guess if you capped your bandwidth for the month this will be irrelevant anyway, but it might help for when it gets uncapped again.
If you watch Godzilla backwards it's about a benevolent lizard who helps rebuild a city and then moonwalks into the ocean.

The way Australian ISPs do shaping is really half-assed. I used to work for ~unnamed telco with two i's i it~ 2-3 years ago, and they literally just dropped packets when shaping the data, pretty much making it unusable for any user.

I guess the world is different
My Net is 10Mbs normally to anything outside AUS but when you exceed your bandwidth allowance your isp slows your internet to a certain rate, in my case its either 56k or some random amount belong 128kbs. </3 australian net, slow as hell and rather expensive at times
