Having read a few of these I am steadily coming to the conclusion you're a condescending dickhead. The fact that you had a 'project' in WoW along similar lines to this one goes a long way to reinforcing my opinion. Messaging pissed off or upset people after a game to demand they further subject themselves to what is essentially playground taunts doesn't help either.

Edit: "You must not know who I am" ahaha! why didn't you try telling him you're "kind of a big deal"?

You're an incredible writer. This line made me lose it, but there are so many other little gems in there. Please continue doing these.

Indeed, you are an incredibly talented writer. I don't know how old you are, but I love your style.

I can only read this and think to myself "I bet someone's lost to drone rushes more than once..."

Its for humor and if you notice he generally messages people that said things that were way out of line. I feel no pity for asking someone that screams profanity at me over chat what exactly their problem is. I must be a heartless condescending dickhead too... maybe that is why this blog gives me a smile.

I don't think I've seen a drone rush in a year, I just don't believe in kicking people when they're down, then taking screenshots of it, then further mocking them.

I presume as Gheed is a multiple time GSL Champ he has forgotten what it's like to try hard and get crushed, to be angry or be frustrated. Or perhaps the reason he has forgotten this sensation is the considerable amount of time he spends sitting in the Bronze league beating people with a fraction of his skill then demanding to know why they made a poor decision.

But you do believe in posting in humor blogs about how much you vehemently disagree and insulting the OP. You're cute and I hope you find something enjoyable somewhere. Might I suggest a warm and heart filling place I like to go for smiles and happiness Ponies are awesome, and no Im not being sarcastic

I get worker rushed TONS!
But I just giggle Free Ladder Points!

We have met on the Ladder Gheeds <3

Only HUGE downside to what you are doing:
You have quite the following. People worker rush me all the time. They tell me they are doing it. They tell me how to defend it. I handle it when it comes. Then I make 2-5 marines and grab all but 5 of my workers with those marines and go kill them. Then 90% get pissed when I win......
I don't get it, but again, Free Ladder points

If you people don't like it, then why the fuck have you read all of these blogs?

In my opinion, they're super funny and quite intriguing. Bronzies truly are the bottom of the food chain.
Ohhhh! Brue Frame Heriooonn!

I believe every people have something they are good at and something they are terrible at.
you might think they are suck because they don't learn anything or they are stupid but I think they just doesn't get it.
It is a combination of having no one to really teach them and lack of Strategy game understanding.

Bronzie is a result, not a type of a people.

My ass. I'm Bronze. I watch Day9, and tons of tourneys. I don't practice SC2. I play occasionally for fun, against my wife or friends, but I'm not willing to develop the skillset the same way I have other gaming ones.

There's more than one reason to be in Bronze, and Bronze is so bad it has it's own metagame.

Whilst your post is very well writen and brings up some good points, can we avoid the bashing of wow and bronzies.
People often find it hard to get out of bronze even when they learn a bit and practice hard. I would say that there are two tiers of bronze players people who are stuck in bronze (<3 for you guys) and people who are either playing the game for fun only or/and people who do not understand how to play. Don't foget you are worker rushing them, this probably causes them to panic and as such you can not relate them to a dog, human being are complicated things. That being said people who play for fun still like to win and when you do something that is "cheesy" in their eyes they are going to be a little upset with you. I find that personally alot of anger comes from within ie you are more frustrated with yourself than other people, meaning that he/she wishes that they could have stopped that or even worse they know how and they failed doing it. This means that they take that anger out on you, your comments don't really help either, its best to not respond I think when this happens, people that angry will not produce any useful answers. I don't know why you did respond to the angry ones, it just makes the situation worse. I am not sure what you hope to gain by antagonising them, but certainly looking for a useful answer is unlikely going to be fruitful.

Again well writen are carried out but tyler makes some good points as usual, wow is all about research and so is starcraft to some extent and often people find it hard to make time for either. So be a bit nicer to them k?
Much cake

Why is it that all these people who aren't in Bronze are getting offended on behalf of people who are? I really thought it was funny.

Gheed, I played you the other day as Tyrael on my worker rush account. I randomed toss and you randomed zerg and my workers killed your hatch before you could kill my nexus. I was honored to the nth degree and I will never forget that match.
