Hey folks - I'm on EU, having exactly the same problems as mentioned in the OP, daily and replies. I've added a bunch of you, virtually everybody with an EU account. Because I tend to be on at weird (irregular) times I'll just check randomly if anybody's up for games - I'll mention this thread to explain to you who the hell I am *grins*

Anyway, feel free to add me as well if you feel like it; Mozared.266.

Hello!

I've just watched Day[9] Daily #269 and I do feel like I have no "SC2 buddies". I've been playing SC2 on and off since release, and most of my SC2-playing friends stopped playing the game entirely.

Without SC2 buddies, I've slowly stopped playing the game I love so much. The only thing keeping my SC2 enthusiasm alive are the great streamers featured here on TL.net (<3 HuK, iNcontroL, Destiny, MrBitter), Day[9] Dailies as well as the GSL.

I'm kind of a shy guy, so I figured I'd add my name to the Practice Partner thread here on TL.net to see if I could get some SC2 friends, but I just ended up with a friend-list full of strangers asking "Games?" every now and then.

I'd love to spend time on Skype with other Starcraft II enthusiasts, discussing the game, discussing tournaments such as the GSL or the upcoming NASL, playing games, going over replays, messing around on the PTR.

If yourself or anyone reading this post wants to add me, feel free to add me on the NA servers:

Hey, I have only just started to ladder, so I am still in practice league, and I will probably end up in bronze because i just don't have much experience.
It would be great to have some friends in starcraft to play games with and to help me improve, but most of all, to have fun!

Sup ^^

So for a while I've been kinda sad about the lack of people i know that play sc2, the people i do know are never on maybe once a week ;( so after watching day 9 i thought i would hit up the blogs and try and find some awesome people to play with.

So i seen this thread but I've noticed alot of you are from the NA severs, sadly i only have an EU account so anyone on the EU severs hit me up. (Lup.448)

I've not been playing long only about a month so am pretty rubbish, but i love star craft so much i haven't gone a day without watching a stream or playing snice i fell ill with star craft fever, But every time i try and play theres no one on and I'm to sacred to ladder cos i am still making dumb miss clicks like hitting s to build a probe >.< i don't want to lose over and over cos of stupid mistakes that i shouldn't make.

I'll try and add a bunch of you.
pm me for real id

I played as a gold Terran a couple of months ago on EU but because of uni I had other things to do. A couple of weeks ago I picked up the game again, switched to Zerg and played some terrible games. Somehow I got used to watch streams instead of playing the actual game (maybe a custom map from time to time), even though I'd love to have some fun games, get better, hang out in skype and maybe start a small tournament just for fun.

I also love playing other games than Starcraft such as Magicka, Minecraft or some old school fps like quake or cs 1.6.

Anyone feel free to add me,

Hey there, I've felt inspired by day9 to do exactly the same. I've had the game for a while and have been really interested in it, but I actually haven't played it that much, and I want that to change. Anyone in this thread can feel free to add me

I feel scared playing ladder. I got my sc2 copy in October and just played 48 league games till now. Since June I'm constantly (every day) watching live streams, coaching lessons, dailies, replay packs and TL strategy threads but I cant practice what I learn because I'm simply too scared to ladder and I dont have too much buddies playing sc2 to encourage me to progress.

UNTIL NOW!

That day9 daily #268 moved my mind and changed the way I was thinking.
Like a lot of you, I love this game but sometimes it feels that I'm alone, with nobody to share my experiences.
I was thinking about make a blog entry asking for buddies to share some good matches, ideas, practice sessions and of course help and be helped progressing.

So if you too share these feelings and want to have a good time playing with nice people feel free to add me and pm me when you see me online to play or simply to talk.

Hey BabyToss,

I know exactly where you're coming from, and just like ondik, I've been alone playing SC pretty much the entire time I've played. I used to have a few friends that played SC and BW, but that was so long ago. I'm on the NA server and would love to make a few actual friends on B.net. Anyone that's interested, feel free to friend me and chat. I don't have TS or Skype, but I guess I'll have to start using one or the other here pretty soon. I'm a silver/gold league Protoss and love watching tournaments and streams.

I'm not on too much, usually 6pm-9pm ish CST (11pm-2am GMT) during the week, and usually at pretty random times on the weekend, but only for an hour or so at a time. So, if anyone sees me on please say hi.

Hey everyone,

My apologies if I have been unresponsive towards any of you today. Had quite rough day in RL, which left me with little time or even mindset for SC2. I'm however happy to see people coming together and having more fun since Day[9]'s daily...

Hope to get in touch with you soon, people.

Same here guys. I watched that video and he just grabbed my heart and crushed it with exactly what I have always wanted in the starcraft community. Getting on skype every once in a while and just speaking to friends about builds and unit compositions and the what not. I do have friends but not that many and even then not that many that play Starcraft. Most of them are in the WoW right now

So any of you guys wanna add me I'm a gold toss on the US server.

Hallo everybody

I am also a viewer of the day9 daily. Like many of you, i found myself being described by he who counts to "J" in his "how to get into starcraft" newbeetuesday daily.I would love to make contact with you people out there, who also like the game, watch casts, sometimes beat themseves up too much after ladder-losses and simply want to have some bodies out there to discuss starcraft with (which can be just so much fun^^) or play some training- or fun matches against.

I`m a bronze level zerg (really like silver though, of course... you know

) on EU Server

Add and contact me, if you like

Hey I'm DRAM (James)
I have added you on EU. I try to play most days, and I watch Day9. I came here to do exactly what you have done, so it would be mean not to say HI. I play equally with Zerg and Toss but I'm terrible at Terran. Would love to play against you or send you some replays and get your thoughts.

Have fun

Oh I also use Skype as well give me a shout if you would like my ID :-)

Sigh... yet ANOTHER post on this issue.

It is sad that, while "Community" is the second item listed under the Teamliquid title/header ("Starcraft progaming news", "Community", "Team"), the TL COMMUNITY section of the site is one of the most underutilized sections.

People link us to the practice thread partner retail as if it works. But newsflash,

1.)
I never understood why people think the Battle.net ID & char code are reliable contact ways. If you're not online on SC2/battle.net, you can't be contacted!!
2.)
The poster of this topic specifically says she doesn't want just SC2 friends, she wants actual buddies!

Please read my post here
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=203628

Make a section for Czech republic on the TL Community section. It is so important to have real life SC2 friends!
