I just had the best PvP ive had, and i had to share it with you!

I never normally 4 gate as i personally dont like it, however i tried it this game, i have no real timings etc of the 4 gate build, when i moved into his base i saw a twlight, so i thought he was DT rushing (hence the cannons outside my base) Well, he didnt and he went charge.

I then gged and started talking about the game, and you have to see what happened next, made me giggle. He is still not calling me all sorts of names for doing this, i hadnt planned to do this when i GGed, i was just having fun, but then i realised i still had a cannons to defend and a pylon on the map, and he opened 4gate into charge zealots. So i honestly thought it would not work, so i just tried it!

The Game in quesiton : https://rapidshare.com/files/3222122298/best_PvP.SC2Replay

It at least gave me a giggle

So basically you won through saying "gg" to get your opponent's guard down.

Amazing.

I'm really unsure what kind of reception you're expecting for this. Congrats on doing probably the most dickheadish thing you can do in this game?

I dont like people who do this. One time, i was stuck on one base as terran vs a zerg, who had lots of roaches and infestors. I eventualy doom dropped him, killing his entire main. All he had were extractors. after a while: 'is not being revealed anymore!' game lasted an hour, and i had to float my buildings off to the corners just to get some revenge. You seem to be trolling for no good reason, whereas i see my trolling as a bit of revenge.

Why are you guys all such *homosexual derogatory adjective censored to avoid ban* manner bears (pun intended) attacking this guy? He had a blast doing this, and I'm probably going to try it as well. It's just a fucking internet game, none of you are pros and are just playing for fun; and if you have fun at the expense of a complete stranger's dismay, then so be it.

It's EXACTLY like getting 3 rax scv all-in'ed - you encounter that shit once and probably will never lose to it again.

The OP's opponent got royally mindfucked; +5 inches to e-peen size for OP^^

I'm going to leave this open just so you can understand how the community feels about this type of thing. This reminds me of when a friend told me he built farms all over the place in wc3 when almost dead so he could win when the other player left. I wanted to smack him upside the head.
GigaFlop, hiding buildings is terrible manner, too. Revenge or not, take the high road and give them the game. They deserve it, and you sure as hell don't.

bugger off

It's people like you that turned me into the cold untalkative person I am now whenever I play BW and SC2. The most I ever say in conversation, outside of friendly games, is "hi", "glhf", and "gg". I only stop playing for a split second to respond to my opponent's gg and resume macroing because of idiots like you.

I completely agree hiding building is a bad practice because it causes frustration upon the winner, and does not net the building hider any gain whatsoever either.

But mindgaming someone and getting a WIN for oneself is a whole different issue because well, regardless of perceptions of manner, the OP won, felt good about himself, and taught his opponent an important lesson.

It's not like the OP swore insane amounts of profanity at his opponent while building nexuses and pylons everywhere; he won a lost game using mind tactics - he used another set of skills (verbal, written, wits?) to overcome something and became the winner from a hopeless situation. And for that, I'm going to reiterate: +1 interwebs for you OP ^^

While that is a good point, many people play this game competitively, and I guess it's more of an ethical thing than anything. The gg signifies that you've had a good game, and lost, and you're going to leave. Not leaving, then, is in essence lying. While there's no rules against that, it's an ethical thing, like said.

Guys Guys why so mad about this, ive never done it before and i didnt actually intend to do it, the idea came into my mind because i thought he DT rushed, so i thought why not as he didnt kill off that proxy pylon.

I am sorry for doing it, i got a win out of it. And i normally and never do it on purpose, the idea sprung into my head after i was talking about the charge lots he got, and then if i see that i could get the win... why wouldnt i? Its ladder and the plat level, nothing special, i go for the win, not going to let somebody take a win from me when the victory was right there in front of me. If i planned this and did it on purpose, then yeah sure thats a douche bag thing to do, however i didnt and i feel i just took the win where i saw the win. I wouldnt of GGed if i thought i was going to do that. But i was just asking him about his build as i would like new PvP builds in my play.

GG!

You wouldn't because it's pretty much one of the most bad-mannered moves in this game. Don't expect to get encouragement or validation from anyone here.

If you could have won, don't GG. If you GG, leave the game. koreasilver summed it up pretty perfectly.

Please, there's no need for namecalling in this thread.

Saying "gg" means that you surrender. This is a cardinal sin in BW, though it seems some of the new generation of SC2 can't comprehend this. koreasilver nailed it.

Yeah, that lesson is "don't trust anybody online because they have bad manners". What do you mean by "regardless of perceptions of manner"? I'm not discrediting the win. He got a win. Hooray. He's still bad mannered.

It's not like the OP swore insane amounts of profanity at his opponent while building nexuses and pylons everywhere; he won a lost game using mind tactics - he used another set of skills (verbal, written, wits?) to overcome something and became the winner from a hopeless situation. And for that, I'm going to reiterate: +1 interwebs for you OP ^^

"+1 interwebs"? I now understand why you think this is fine. This isn't "mindgaming", it's just a lack of respect for the opponent. If you were to surrender during war and then strike when the opposition's back was turned, there would be worldwide outcry. It's obviously unfair and has no place as a "mechanism" to win. Let's say I have a maphack that is undetectable, and by some interpretation of BNet law, is legal to use. I will call this maphack my "technical tactics". I used my set of programming and legal skills to overcome the disadvantage of being a horrible SC player. So I maphack my opponent and beat his ass silly because of my "technical tactics". +1 interwebs for me, right?

Nah i disagree, hiding buildings serves as an effective tool when you want to punish your opponent from being a tard. Like forexample if he is a B- player and creates a game called D/D+ fighting!

This retardness needs to get punished with hidden pylons.
