Disclaimer: I searched through the forums using "already posted", "post exists", "mods please be gentle" and "no need for op". I couldn't find anything (maybe wrong keywords? I only found 2 closed and a BW thread).
I just wanted to say that I have an important question that really cannot be asked in the General thread (seriously Jinro is a good progamer and all, but lazy, when it comes to making this thread in time). I am a mid to high level Plat player and have been into Starcraft since forever (when I got a Beta key). Actually I am Diamond, because my MMR is that of a Master already, but ladder isn't fixed yet.
The question I want to ask is: Does any post like this already exist? If so, mods please del this post. Have you ever thought about it? If this post already existed (or similar one) there would be no need for an op like this one. It could be erased from history... An intriguing idea.
Anyways, discuss!
Edit:
|
Is there a thread like what?
|
I don't get it...what are we discussing? the question is: does any post asking does any post like a post asking if a post exists, exist? you're gonna have to help me out here :[
|
I think he means a thread to talk about whether or not Jinro is lazy? IDK I'd try an sc2 tabloid website

Jinro lazy? Are we thinking of the same person?
|
Rethink the op and state what you're trying to ask more clearly!
It makes no sense ;/
|
So confused. A lot of posts involve someone talking about how their MMR is a true display of their ranking.
|
I need a wind-talker to interpret this sentence:
"seriously Jinro is a good progamer and all, but lazy, when it comes to making this thread in time"
|
Maybe this a fun new way of blogging, be cryptic and vague and let the reader interpret it however they want
|
+ Show Spoiler +I wanted to write a satire on regular tl posts. Nobody understands me, I failed. btw, I am a Jinro fan. Was it to serious?
|
Oh never heard this before, i am plat but play masters all teh time so i'm actually masters skill, no bro, just no

I thought the whole point of an MMR was that it is hidden...so how do you know what yours is? And don't just extrapolate based on the ranks of people you've played because their MMR is unknown as well and estimating an unknown based on estimation of another unknown is circular and inaccurate.
Also...what is this thread about?
|
Honestly, I found it pretty funny.
|
I laughed too.
Btw I think his question is whether there's a thread out there for people to ask "is there already a post on so and so topic/question".

I thought it was a self-reference joke.
|
You're in the plat division, therefore you are in plat. The ladder system is fine

hmm there also seems to be a link between the amount of people who claimed to have known the intentions of the OP and how many posts about theories about the intentions of the OP already in the thread at the time of their posting.. excuse me while I parse

rofl wtf
this was pretty amusing, I guess

I am a mid to high level Plat player Mid-plat doesn't exist, only high- and top- plat (or high plat/low diamond). The same is true for all leagues below masters. Also you forgot to mention that your game sense is amazing but you're held back by mechanics/cheese/imba.
+ Show Spoiler +Yes this is sarcasm. Yes, I'm also aware the OP is not serious.

When it's already revealed people get more confident.
|
I... what... Jinro... huh?
Okay, maybe OP spent too much time at the Biergarten and then decided to make a drunken thread.
|
|
Oh my fucking hell that made me laugh so hard LOL this is just as vague as my friend is sometimes.I literally go on a fucking quest to figure out what he's saying.
|
Weird but i enjoyed this thread, i find it pretty unique and refreshing.
|
I'm so confuselled. WTF just happened?
|
I read it three times but I still don't understand it. And I even read his explanation and still don't understand it.
|
this has already been discussed in the future, just wait a couple of years and jinro's post will be full of replies
|
im low/high plat. i would be low-mid masters but i keep getting cheesd by noobs and i feel like the current metagame favors races other than my own.
am I funny yet?

What is this...an embeded 1984ish philosophy of "those who control the present control the past control the future" idea?
Death to the mods!
Jking, but interesting post anyhow.

I do not normally post in the blog section but the confusion level is off the charts, is this some kind of Team Liquid Da Vinci code? is their a prize if we figure it out? Or is it just that only he understands cause

He is in two leagues and I am not? is the post that Jinro is suppose to make a confession post? for the murder of Ludwigvan?
Is the erase from history part a clue to maybe them trying to cover it up!? The very last thing you say "An intriguing idea" your right this is, I shall think upon this more to find the true meaning of life.

I sense a disturbance in the force.

Need Chill's opinion on the metagame of posting Ah, an exception to my hypothesis! I appreciate your honesty, kind sir.

I got it, it's a play on stupid people making stupid threads that have been made 10000000 times and ALWAYS START with "I used the search feature, but it didn't work." and then say "if this OP is wrong or something, please delete it"
I thought it was great.

Sense a disturbance in the post...

I thought it was great. Wrong... Clearly it's an exemplified metaphor of the inherent absurdity of existence and the confusion of human experience. Very Kafkaesque.

This is the most meta metapost I've ever read. Scary how many people took it at face value.

Edit: For those that are not understanding, Jinro is the creator of the General Discussion thread - but he frequently forgets to create them (hence the reference to lazy)!
Apart from that, this thread is oddly intriguing, lol
