edit: double post

Four pooled a second time!!

Stupid question: how do you rally workers to mineral patches to make them harvest upon completion?

tell the scv to build something then shift+right click the minerals before it starts buildingl
BW is still out there and a lots of people still watch it. SC2 is a different game and different people. Please go back to BW if you think sc2 is not suited for you - Dustin Browder

I meant from the Command center. it seems when the scv finishes, it just stands by the patch I rally it to.

Ya, you can't rally from your cc/nex/hatch to the mineral patches, gotta manually send them to mine.
I once defeated the broodwar AI playing entirely with my feet, though admittedly I did cheese the heck out of it.

OK so I I'm getting slightly (note: slightly) better. Managed to keep my money kinda low (note: kinda). Fun game, just hard to figure out at first.

That whole conversation is hilarious! I always wondered what SC2 players who never touched BW would think about not having automine! I played SC1 on the N64 back in 2000/2001 and they HAD automine, so it was a little bit of a shock when starting on iccup two summers ago. You're going to mess up worker placement A LOT before you get the timings down, so don't sweat it!

The hardest part about playing BW (and SC2, for that matter) is learning how to think about it. The second hardest part (at least for a beginner) is improving passed D-/D on iccup. The skill necessary to make D+ is MUCH higher than the skill needed to stay out of D-. I always thought of the learning curve as the side of a cliff. It's a lot of hard work, but once you get the swing of things you'll look back on your struggles with the AI and say "I died to THAT?!".

Lol it's no wonder the AI had more units than you if your workers weren't mining.
No one ever remembers second place, eh? eh? GIVE ME COMMAND

Another thing that was funny was the lurker. I was casually strolling along with my marines and then, "OMG WTF HSFH SFHFSFSHFJ SPIKES? REALLY? ZOMG"

And all my army died : /
