So after 2 nights of very bad (little) sleep, i am half out my mind and i just realised some of the building hotkeys actually make acronyms!

building a forge makes boyfriend (BF)
building a cannon makes Battlecruiser (BC)
building a gateway makes Bad Game (BG)
building a robotics makes Void Ray (VR)
building an armory makes Veterans Affairs (VA)
building a twilight council makes VietCong!! (VC)
building a Ghost academy makes Video Game (VG)
building a Dark Shrine makes Venereal Disease (VD lmao)
building a spawning pool makes BullShit (BS)

and thats pretty much it, lol

Building an infestation pit makes an editor (vi)
Building a spire makes a better editor (VS)

Bored with it already. You definitely need to get some sleep.

I'm pretty sure there's an acronym for just about every 2-letter combination that exists.

As a Terran player I think it's more than just a coincidence that gateways and spools make for Bad Game and BullShit.

i don't think there are any coincidences since you could pretty much make up anything for 2 letter acronyms

i dont know what your getting at. VC means Viet Cong, its well knows. you may talk about Vichy which is a city? then again you failing so hard at history wouldnt surprise me if you dont know the difference between VC and Vichy.

TO ALL AMERICAN AND BRITISH PEOPLE WHO FEEL SMART AND AWESOMEWHEN THEY THINK ABOUT WW2 AND HOW THE FRENCH 'LOST' LOOK UP GENERAL CHARLES DE GAULLE!

btw, one of the most successful general in history was a french guy. Also, if in 24 hours time from a war starting u had tanks in ur capital, u'd surrender too you idiot. And anyways, the french government surrendered, the French ARMY fled to Algeria and Morrocco to regroup and then re-invaded France and pushed the Germans out. Today, France has one of the top Special Forces group, one of, if not the best (maybe tied or a little bit worse then the GSG-9) Counter Terrorist force. The best police special unit in the world. That being the French Foreign Legion, GIGN and the RAID in order.

The way I see World War Two, is France was on the Allied side, the Allies won, therefore France won? Just because they had a tactical surrender

Oh, you are quite clearly sleep deprived. lmao.

I agree.. building a spawning pool is kind of bullshit though. Mostly at 6.
Gravity is just a feeble plot.

yes man, but the general consensus is, wrongly, that the french surrendered instantly, which was untrue. There was a big resistance movement, a French army in Britain that landed with the allies on D-Day and a french army in Algeria/Maghreb that landed in Marseille and retook the country from the south. The army under Leclerc was the first to liberate Paris
