I didnt make a blog yesterday because after the first 2, no one really seemed interested at all and somebody even rated my 3rd blog with 1 star. So apparently no one really cares. Thought it would be different since on my first blog that I posted telling everyone my intentions (http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?id=262031) that more people would be interested but I guess thats what I get for assuming. Anyway, here are the replays from yesterday if anyone cares to look.

Not feeling to good today though so I dont know if im going to even get out of bed or not once i get back in. Later.

I don't mean to hurt your hopes, but noone really cares about these blogs because they never go anywhere. There are countless "going pro blogs" that get made and none of them ever get anywhere.

To tell you the truth, blogging about your progress is just a big waste of time and you will get burnt out by updating us every single day.

Oh, and 7 or 8 games a day isn't going to cut it for training to win an MLG. Sorry.

It doesnt bother me to post my stuff here. The only games I put in my packs though are ladder games. I dont put the custom games I play in there as I play ALOT of them with my friends who are diamond and masters. I only post ladder games so you can see my progress there. If you read my first blog, I stated that I would be playing 20-40+ games a day. Thats what I have been doing.

I think you should keep up with your blogs. Until you hit training day 20+ and reach master/gm or so, nobody will take you serious or regularly read your blogs as there are so many "I'm going pro" blogs. If you doubt yourself because of some trolls, then you weren't suited for this kind of thing in the first place.

I've actually meaning to watch your stream. Could you tell me when you regularly stream so I can watch?

Personally I come to the blog section to read up on personal stories (with interesting content, including girl blogs), exceptional arts/music talent, some ridiculous jokes or major failures, and the amazing screenshot-illustrated game reports (like the popular D2 adventures). If others generally look for the same, it's no wonder that super-hardcore-practice blogs (screenshots + captions are better and more readily accessible than replays) are not as popular.

Still, kudos to you for your effort, hope you're making satisfactory progress.

for today's blog, read my other blogs -> link

doesn't sound like much of a blog.

what kind of practice have you been doing?
do you feel you've been improving or struggling in any particular area?
what have you actually been doing? (at least list what your daily schedule has been etc).

I usually stream right after SlayerS_Dragon goes offline which is around 12-1 pm. So if you look at the live streams and see that he's offline, then im probably just getting online. I usually only stream for an hour or so though because the lag gets so bad sometimes that it starts hindering my gameplay.

The thing is we have numerous blogs with people attempting to go pro, we have them as many as we have(or used to have) girl blogs.

which is a ridicilous amount, people are simply not interested anymore in this.

As of right now I have been playing alot of ladder and custom games against my friends. I feel that my terran play has had a huge jump in all match-ups from when i started playing with them (which was maybe a week before I started blogging). Usually what my schedule looks like is I wake up at around 7:30 am and watch dragons stream until about 12-12:30 pm (or whenever he goes offline), and then I play SC2 until about 8-9 PM (sometimes later, just depends on how I feel). Im not practicing anything specific yet and probably wont until I get to Diamond league. Thats when Im going to do alot of hardcore training.

Well to be honest, if something doesnt pull my interest, that doesnt mean im going to do my best to make it look bad. I just ignore it and read what I want to read. So if you dont like reading things like this, then simply dont read it. No need to fuck with somebodies ratings because you dont like it.

To put it in a better sense, lets say you started streaming today and you got payed based off of your ratings. The first day was great you got 5 stars and had alot of people interested in what you were doing. Then comes the troll who constantly 1 stars you until you rating looks like the rating of this thread and you dont get payed. Thats whats going on here except I dont get payed and its not a stream.

To be more specific, its basically ruining your reputation and making you look bad.

So any time a blog gets 1 star it is completely unjustified? Your blog has no content. It consists of hay I am going pro here is 5 replays come read the same thing tomorrow. Not exactly internet gold.

Why do you even bother to answer to all the trolls, haha? Just play your games and show some good stuff, that will shut people up soon enough.... granted you actually accomplish anything.

Oh yeah and if you want to keep up this blog, better make it worth while. Include things that people might actually be interested in, for example your progress, your feelings towards the game, what you struggle with and what you're getting better at, fun little anecdotes and what not. Nobody is going to DL a replay pack that's at the bottom of a post that goes like "Hi, I played 7 games today. Oh also I'm mad at people downvoting my blogs TT"

Nono. Make a good blog and people will appreciate it. Ezpz.

At least give some description of the games in the replay pack and how they relate to your progress. Simply linking the pack and complaining about your poorly rated past blogs isn't something people are interested in. If you are serious about going pro and want to share that with everyone then that's great, but don't expect people to download a random replay pack and comment on the games without any background.

Just a tip, but don't complain about people giving your blog 1 star, in your blog. When you do that, people will 1 star your blog for blogging about blogcomplaining.

You're seriously confused why people would rate your blogs so low?? Low content in most, and the one you bothered to write more than throw away stuff is yet another blog about a nobody with no skill talking about how they want to go pro. There's already a million of those and people are sick of gold players talking about it. You don't even bother to give anything of use when you dump your games on the site.

I'm sure this blog pretty much guaranteed you a whole bunch more ones too.

Don't worry, I have read every one. 1 star worthy. You're welcome.

EDIT: Except maybe the first, I get a chuckle when I hear the announcement of a blog pro. I'll give that one a 3.

People can fuck with your rating if they want to, that's what the rating system is there for. If you want higher ratings than post higher quality blogs. Otherwise if everyone rated blogs a 3 4 or 5 to be nice every blog would be a 3 4 or 5 star rating, in that case why even bother rating blogs? If you don't care then great, if you do, that's too bad. That being said, good luck and I hope your motivation doesn't die out like most peoples.
