Ahh tremendous. You feel like WhiteRa is throwing the game away, but then he unleashes the special tactics and comes out with a victory.
A true champion.

oh man if it wasnt WhiteRa i would have killed him! people that don't play for the team make me an unhappy blackjack player.
but his reaction and the fact that it was WhiteRa probably would have kept me at the table

That story was made so much better by the random hype post "All I remember is..."
Thanks to all of you for posting in the IPL thread and updating us, it made everything that went wrong okay. It felt like.. Idk a TL tournament.
Edit: Tell the full story lol.

|
|
It's only special tactics to us; it's always standard for White-ra
|
|
|
teamliquid.net needs thumbs up :D
|
So 5 taps on the table means Special Tactics. Thats where I've been going wrong!

This is pretty much the perfect example of special tactics. Special tactics are tactics that aren't the right move by the book, and indeed they cannot win over the long term, but when applied in just the right situation, are exactly what's needed to win that situation.
iirc, the original special tactics was going 7gate speed zealots off 2 base pvt on blue storm. it works only if the terran doesn't scout it at all and only if the terran extends himself (for an early third or for a timing attack). if those conditions aren't met, then the strategy is hilariously bad. but indeed those conditions were met, just like white-ra predicted, and special tactics was born

Let me ask you something: did you actually get upset or was it just some saving-face ego-sparring?
Coz you don't seem like the person that can be ticked off THAT easily, and you're surely too smart to try to outmuscle the bouncers. ('outmuscle' includes verbal wars in this case)

Hahahahaaa, WhiteRa... legendary
|
Another one for the books.
ZPESHUL TAKTIKZ

Special tactics soso gosu

LOL this is so great, Rekrul has the best stories.

i didn't get upset i remained very calm the whole time, and wasn't trying to save face it was just drunken power-tripping

they wouldn't let me into this club at borgata because they believed my shoes (which are actually kinda expensive guccis but now look like beat down tennis shoes) were not up to standard for their club
i was very very drunk and dont remember much but my broken memories + what ppl have told me =
me telling the host guy who was denying me my shoes are worth more than his entire net worth
me waving 5k in his face asking him isn't his job to let customers spend money
me grabbing his shoulder and him saying dont fucking touch me and then calls 7 security guards
i keep ranting for as long as possible enjoying the moment talking down on him as the security guards just watch waiting for me to do something 'wrong'
i then tell him hes not worth my time and demand the mananger
manager is this pretty hot girl all glitsy and i end up calling her an 'uppity cunt' within 20 secs of talking to her
uniform police officers show up and tell me if this continues they will remove me and ban me from the premesis
i ask them how you going to do that when i'm a guest in the hotel i did nothing wrong and i have 100 thousand in my safe in my room (the last part was just a bluff to see how they react not sure if it was 30 or 100 that i said 1 of the two)
they were unsure how to reply to that cuz they thought they might be dealing with a VIP and they can't just ban VIPs like that
i then told everyone to fuck themselves and stormed off
security etc followed me, apparently we tried to go into another club in the hotel but the same host guy from before ran up and made sure they knew to not let me in
then everyone else left and i went to bed
only d.apollo, smix, and select stayed loyal to me through all the mayhem and didn't bounce
Your posse are loyal as fuck, cause you deserve it.

I was really drunk in a cruise ship casino playing blackjack, and was dealt a 7. The whole night me and my friend had been quoting the Austin Powers movie where he's playing blackjack, so I stayed, and said I like to live dangerously. So now there's like 5 other people playing staring at me in horror, because I basically just fucked them all over. Dealer busted, I won
|
Sick story... Got a chance to talk to White-Ra this weekend for a minute or so, super nice guy! Even though as a Zerg player I tend to follow fellow Zergs, I am definitely a fan of White-Ra now. Didn't accomplish my goal of drinking some vodka with him and Strelok, though... :D

Brilliant. WhiteRa - may you live forever.

lol the idea of Rekrul almost getting banned is fairly ironic...
:O white-ra: special tactics work in every situation

Not trying to be rude and forgive my ignorance but who is rekrul and how does he get ass as hot as whitera? He seems pretty famous around here.
|
|
|
I wish I had your life... <3 Rek
|
rekrul always making the nerds jealous.
keep on living the dream.
|
you don't know me, but i was there with taylor and my friend matt.
that borgata shit was so stupid. that fucking idiot security guard was looking through your passport for no reason. literally, the dude was flipping through and looking at the stamped pages. glad you didn't get that thing taken away.
tried to talk to apollo during that fiasco and the dude wouldn't even acknowledge me. was kinda lame honestly. put out my hand and introduced myself and he did nothing. i guess you're homies so he was worried, but damn... didn't seem like it was THAT bad 
|
That actually can't really describe the essence of Rekrul. Just go through his post history and read old posts, you'll get the idea better.
|
Not what i expected as a Trip Report, but great story nevertheless. White-ra is da man!
|
special tactics matha fakha!!!

Damn I didn't see anyone at Borgata... I stayed there 4 nights cuz we got our hotel comped wish I ran into more people

My story with rekrul:
I sit down with buddy @ 1/2NL @ borgata and start convo w/ dudes next to us. Small talking about why we're here and rekrul and his buddy "we're here for this game called starcraft."
"Oh rly? Sweet that's why we're here, what's your handle?"
"Rekrul."
"No shit! I don't believe you. Wait do you know slog?" (one of the tlny guys)
"You mean Andy?"
"Omg you ARE rekrul!"
