Alright, so here we are. Before I embark on my epic quest, let me tell any readers about myself. My name is Josiah (Joe-Psi-Uh). My screen-name is Fluffy Bin-Laden. I'm 15, live in Michigan, and suck at Starcraft.

Recently, I joined the famous iCCup Ladder server for Starcraft Broodwar. I would be playing SC2, but recently my computer's processor died, so I'm using a computer from 2002! Oh God, what a dinosaur! So anyways, the fact that I suck at Starcraft means that, well, I suck at Starcraft. I am currently D- ranked on the Ladder, with a stunning record of 1-5. Zerg v Protoss is my worst matchup.

This Is My Quest!

No longer shall I be a little noobie with no wins! I shall, however slowly, grow in skill and progress towards the mythical D+ rank! This blog (however awful, grammatically incorrect, cheesy, stupid, unhumorous, nasty, annoying etc. it may be) shall a log of progress, an outlet for frustration, a call for help, and possibly an entertaining read for anyone unfortunate enough to find it. I will log my practice, epic events, thoughts, feelings, and possibly some things that go on in *Gasp* Real Life. Join me, as I venture deep into the soul of SCBW, and learn what it means to be a gamer.

Woo! Best of luck, =P D+ is a decent skill level.

Where you at in Michigan? I'm here too (Newaygo County), although I'm moving to California in about 3 months... I refuse to stay here for another winter.

Haha, glhf man~! You can get D+ with a 35% win-rate actually.
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

I'm near Detroit. Wayne County area. And yah, man, Michigan weather in the winter hurts. But I like it, gives the state a personality.

35%... Yah, I can't make that as of yet. Here's to hope!

Sorry Drayne, I'm loyal to the Swarm. Zerg is my race, and I don't plan on switching anytime soon.

When you come back to SC2 is going to seem like you're playing in slow motion. BW is so intense D:

Also D+ is nuts, Iccup is a scary place

You inspired me to play a bit of BW. ^^ I played a bit a few weeks ago but pretty much went back to sc2 super fast.

Just won the first (and likely last) game of the day which bring me to a record just as impressive as yours at 3-5. >_>

I had a crack at BW recently after many a year of absence. I was blown away at how big stuff looks. I was like "that's a huge bitch!", referring to my lovely SCV. The proportions are just hilarious!
