The fact that spawning with the shared alley or spawning without is SO different means that map is insanely unpredictable and imbalanced from pos to pos... I refuse to support a map like that. Obviously I played it a bunch in the beta so if a tourney refuses to remove it I will be "ready" but I am not going to ladder there because over all it does me no good and I anticipate it will be removed asaply.

hey, iNc, what is your favorite ladder map and which maps do you feel are more favored for P then other races?

also (discounting the 2 new maps) which map is your least favorite/most disadvantageous towards P?

Is doing bicep curl with dumbells on a preacher bench supposed to be harder than doing it standing up?
By harder I mean not being able to lift as much

Preacher curls are about isolation and angle. It should achieve full extension while not allowing you to "sway" the weight up or use other parts of the body. I find this to be the most effective bicep lift.

I also do 3 sets standing with less weight but that is more of a burnout lift.

Metalopolis probably since it is so balanced and "larger." Aside from that I don't know if a map is truly P favored but I feel there are some maps that aren't as good for P. Really hard to complain as a P I think we have it pretty good.

Probably delta quadrant since back expo can be dropped by T so easily and front expo is so close to the center of the map it begs for terran death ball.

Is there any custom maps out that you have tried and found that you like playing on?

There are a few that I think lead to pretty interesting games, but I am also a bit biased since the only ones I have really seen are the iCCup maps (from casting iCCup Map Series and such where they are used) - but of those I really like River Point and Orbital Divide.

Some of the BW ports seem to do pretty well but I do kind of agree that I am more a fan of original maps that were made for SC2.

I like the bw ports but I felt (I am limited to my experience with them) that they needed a bit more SC2 to them. Absent xel naga towers, no high yield or destructible rock/island expansions etc make them TOO bw like and not enough SC2 like. The size was nice and BW maps were typically well made in the sense that they were rarely cramped.

I hold no grudge or anything with you. Some of the stuff that made you odd like obsessing over girls on this forum (In a creepy way) has died down.

Seem like a good guy who loves the community.. cannot ask for too much more.

When you see "ManOfOneWay" do you think to yourself:

"Old pro that should be retired"

or

"He can still win the GSL."

I think "respect" and "legend"

I will root for him but I don't think he is going to win anything big anymore.

I asked Mani this in his blog but I'd like to ask you as well... just 'cause I think the answers are revealing

Would you say your happiness and satisfaction in life primarily come out of:
1) A select few people you SERIOUSLY care about who you love and who love you "love me"
2) Everyone liking you "like me"
3) Desire to be respected by people "respect me"
4) Desire to fulfill your own personal standards (this can be academic standards.. relationship standards... etc) "perfect me"

I know everyone has a bit of each - but if you had to choose one?
Answer this thinking about your happiest/saddest moments in life - (was it because of someone who was really close to you? Because you found out people didn't like you? Because people disrespected you? Because you failed your personal goals?)

I am very very person oriented. If SC didn't have such a community or social aspect I wouldn't still be here. That said option 1 is most clearly where I derive my happiness. I am not one of those guys who has 30 best friends etc.. I have a handful. I am with the love of my life and I have a small family. I can honestly say the saddest times in my life have somehow involved any of those factions being in disarray and similarly the happiest have had something to do with those people. If I was rich and alone I'd be sad and desiring different things for myself. If I was poor but surrounded with those I love I'd be fulfilled if not eating a bit poorly!

I think after hearing about how ecstatic you were at the pageant I would've predicted that.
Already said this but you guys are so <3
And much agreed about that last statement!

iNcontroL, sorry, but your house is burning to the ground. Fortunately, every living thing that was inside has found its way out (no one, human or otherwise, needs to be saved). The firefighters arrive and tell you that the house is still safe to enter only for another 5-10 minutes.

Which 3 things would you run through the flames for, and why?
Until I write you again, take care of your precious person.

well now you know you cannot spawn in the shared alley, but even if you could, isnt that the exact same problem that metalopolis and lost temple have? if you spawn close positions on either of those maps, metalopolis especially, the walking distance is ridiculously close (closer than steppes/incineration zone/delta), which makes the games play so differently than the other starting spots. i dont know why everyone says metalopolis is such an amazing map when imo it's only great 2/3 of the time, close spots just makes for horrible games. wouldn't metalopolis be a better map if you were unable to spawn in the close spots?

also going back to shakuras, really the only issue i've found so far with the map is when you're both bottom or you're both top, and so there's a really quick way in between the two bases when eventually both the rocks are destroyed. Though i guess with 2 rocks that delays it quite a while, by then you can have defense/walloffs ready in time, but then again it's so far from the center/natural choke that it's awkward to defend it, i dunno
can you explain a bit more what you were trying to say there in SotG, you got sorta cutoff there at the end

my computer (lol I turned into superman apparently), my family's crucifix (over 100 years old) and my iphone since it has all my music on there... I had my CD's stolen out of my car not too long ago and music is really important to me.

Funny lil factoid... I have lots of nice stuff but Anna stole it all. My iPad, bigscreen and PS3 are all at her house ahah GF'S!
