That was genius! Had a good time watching this, and the marines totally ignoring the dudes up the ramp. They still managed to do an SCV rampage :D

I loled a few times, and thanks for that!

Hahahaha

I can't believe that is what you took away from this blog... sometimes people amaze me in the worst ways.

More on topic, I have no clue how you were able to get them to play this game, but kudos to you for doing it!

Haha, them moms adding units to control groups by shift+number. I only learned that "trick" a few days ago when someone posted that on reddit.

Nice blog!

lol when I first started playing sc1 (prior to bw's existence for some time frame) I never used a-move I used p-move cause I assumed when you hit a you had to click a single unit, but patrol would kill everything in its path... there and back. Amazing problem solving skills as a 10 year old.

I showed my mother this and she immediately said "I bet you 20 bucks I could play much better than them in a 1 on 1 with you in Star Craft and even beat you". I accept and put a copy of Star Craft on her computer. Less than 3 minutes into the game I have lings in my base. I had chosen terran but don't know any good wall-ins nor how to defend against ling rushes with terran. I immediately stack my SCVs and attack the lings. The lings die after killing 7 SCVs. I knew she must have scouted here last or close to it as we were 1v1ing on BGH(Just so she doesn't have to expand ^_^). I then sent all my SCVs and a rine to her base and began hitting HER drones. She left saying "I don't bet with my own children so no money." I then proceeded to steal $5 from her purse when she was in the rest room. Sadly, I forgot to save the replay .

I would not have the patience to do this. I think this teaches us the importance of patience as it has created one of the more epic things. We will now be introducing: The MSL of SC2

Eventually the phrase soccer mum will fade away, and be replaced with starcraft mum.

What are you talking about. SC2 is way harder than BW, clicking on buildings is so easy.

PS. I'm broke, can I have my $20 back plz?

This sentence confuses me. To make it less confusing, please put a /endsarcasm or something of that nature at the end of the sentence. No better than Scar though. I don't think this should be the thread to shit on SC2 like Scar is doing.

Lol, that was a brilliant way to kill time. I should try this with my family as well, although I would never be allowed to film it.
