no no, i didnt just sit there and wait. I scouted his 3rd and lings picked my probes off. I spent a lot of probes trying to figure out what was going on.

I guess I could have used hallucinations but I wasn't thinking about doing that in the face of a cheese.

I'll definitely just block chat every time

You don't have to block chat, just be confident in yourself and your game play. Words on the screen shouldn't affect you.

This is a pretty great con, where you get the mark to distract themselves by giving them the option of getting an unfair advantage over the con artist in order to win big. Then later the mark usually wont go to the authorities because they themselves did something illegal and are implicating it when describing the details.

So you're not going to get any sympathy from TL this time.

Hmmm, in the end it was my own fault. I guess it's all part of the game we all love so much. In retrospect, it gave me something to talk about :D and at least I had a few wins for the day

Hehe, I don't know why you changed your build at all when you didn't even know what the funday monday was. Just keep doing what you were gonna do XD

I like talking to people on ladder but at the same time my opening usually suffers when I'm in a conversation. I can only hope there's does too. If you're really worried about being distracted than I guess all you can do is block communication while you play

Imagine how the Funday Mondayers feel when we have to double expand, or make only certain units then get demolished by players who figure it out...
