Hi guys,

I just had the cheekiest guy I met so far. We were playing PvP on Metalopolis. He was able to bring in his first couple of units before I reacted with my own proxy attack. So I opted for force fields to stall him and build up my forces. While I was doing that it occurred to me that I still had my proxy pylon near his third, so I sent in four Zealots to harass his peon line.

He started complaining fuck pvp and after I fully defended his stalker heavy attack he said well...gg and left the game... or didn't he. The score screen didn't pop up and I checked F10 to see I still had the option to surrender. I typed in nice try and he finally left.

That was a really rude move imho, losing in a straight up game and then trying something like this.

I'm glad that you didn't let him fool you into leaving though lol

Yeah, I have to agree, this isn't a unique case in any way at all. It's actually only remarkable in that it's exactly like the others but perhaps with less bm.

I run into that every other day... Not really unique
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

good call not leaving. You would've facepalmed so hard if you given him the game after winning it

One time I was playing a ladder match on NA and I was winning and then this guy suddenly types into chat "I can't believe I lost to a noob. You are terrible. Go back to bronze league." The nerve of that guy?

I'm currently working on my memoir.

I'm not used to people like that coming from a background of UT. The community was small and you had near nobody who would behave like that. Seems like SC2 is just too big and there is enough a**es around to pull stuff like this off.

I didn't try to point out something unique here, I just wanted to share my surprise.

Whoa whoa, why the hate on the guy for pointing out a situation just because you seen it before. Are you all hipsters now?

Not everyone has seen everything, and this is what the blog section is for. Sheesh. I enjoyed the heads up.

I accidentally did it to somebody once.

I gged.

And then won? I think he got a little overanxious.

I imagine it happens quite a bit though :I 've seen it 3-4 times.
