Hello everyone. For the past 4 years that I became a member here (and long before that since I started lurking back in the Broodwar days), I've always considered myself a part of Teamliquid more than any other internet community. Though I grew up with Broodwar, and can still play it at a decent-enough level to humiliate certain people in grudge matches, I rarely played online back then. I immersed myself in the campaign and practiced against the ai on Lost Temple. It was looking up build orders and how to generally play that I first found the Teamliquid forums through Liquipedia. But while it was fun to read through the forums, I didn't really have anything I wanted to post, so I lurked for a couple years before I made my account on November 18th, 2011, some time after Starcraft 2 had come out.

Even then, I didn't post anything for a month. My first ever post was complimenting a 6-year old daughter-father casting duo.

Most of you who know me probably do so through my stories in the blog section. My history with writing funny blogs goes back to an assignment I had in my high school forensics class to detail a crime scene. My first ever experience with humorous creative writing came from there, and I posted it in the Teamliquid blogs section soon after as my first experience with blogs.

My subsequent stories turned out to be rather gruesome, and I received my first, and only warning on Teamliquid so far for being too violent in my next story, The Friendly Chess Game.

I toned it down a bit for my next few stories, and eventually abandoned my gory humor narratives altogether as I started focusing on more silly scenarios instead. This evolved further into creating useless inventions and writing "battle reports" for games that shouldn't have battle reports, such as my Diablo 2 battle report. And, though it was a pain to write, I was glad that everyone liked it. That was one of my proudest works I've ever posted on Teamliquid. If you missed it or haven't seen it yet, I recommend you take a look.

Since then, I've slowed down with the story posting. It takes a lot of time to create battle-reports with pictures involved, but I do have many ideas and plans to make more in the future. Though I may not post blogs as often as I used to, I have not given up writing for good. I will continue posting my creations on Teamliquid for hopefully many years to come. I have a history with many Teamliquid members here, and I'm thankful for this site to have been such good company to me.

And now, Shoutouts to my favorite people on this site.

+ Show Spoiler +

[UoN]Sentinel - My arch nemesis whom I humiliated in our world-renowned grudge match. You've been a good rival to me, despite being inferior in most every way. Of course I will be your best man when you marry ninazerg against her will.

catplanetcatplanet - I can't understand half the things you say, but good friendship prevails over any language. You've been there since the beginning with me, so technically you're my oldest friend on this site.

ninazerg - Your rants on life and your altercations within the blogs section add a lot of interest to this site, and I doubt the blogs and general sections would be as fun to look at if you weren't around. I wish you many happy meals and a long life, which you may grow to resent if you marry Sentinel.

MysteryMeat1 - You're a pretty nice guy, Meat. I've known you for a while on here and I supported a lynch against you in mafia once that made you hate me for a while. I don't think you resent me for that anymore though. If there's any resentment of me from you, I'm sure it's just jealousy.

The_Templar - Following in the footsteps of my greatness, you too have started writing humorous battle reports involving your escapades in Starcraft 2. It is true what they say. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Chairman Ray - I played mafia with you once where you told everyone you weren't looking at your alignment, and screwed over The_Templar as your mafia partner when you got lynched. That level of incompetence, combined with screwing over The_Templar warrants a shoutout. Also I commonly see you in my blogs and you seem pretty nice.

radscorpion9 - Though I only know you because of your infatuation with me through my blogs, I nonetheless appreciate your support. There is nobody more worthy of loving me than you.

Titusmaster6 - One of my biggest regrets in life is not having completed act 4 so you would have had to eat that sock.

And if I missed anybody, rest assured that it is only because I don't care about you, not because I forgot.

Thank you to everyone who has made Teamliquid feel like a second home to me.

I'm still annoyed about that.

Good blog. I am a bit sad that it seems 99% serious, though.

Dude, I love that while everyone is like "what the hell is this"/"What kind of drugs are you taking" when I make some weird jokes, you just go along with it and make it even funnier. YOU make TL more funner.

MysteryMeat and my stupidity cost me my first ever temp ban on TL lol. Be careful about how you tussle with the meat.

And I remember your LOD battle reports. I also remember naively wondering how you were going to make it through Hell with a naked barb, lol. Didn't seem to occur to me that you might just be doing a normal only run. Trololol.

And by that I meant the difficulty.

This is all so much easier to think about if we (and by that I mean me - phrasing...) just imagine that you are going to play a naked barbarian on hardcore until you - inevitably - die.

And tell the story of your glorious deeds.

EMILIOOOOOOO!
