With the new site, new season, new everything, I got really pumped to play. But, I've had a problem with this "playing" part that, right now, I feel like I've ultimately combated.

Well, you see, ever since the first season, I could never really mass game. First season I went like 6-11 and stopped. In about a month or so I got those stats. Horrible. I was so motivated to mass game but I went in a 7 game losing streak(from 5-4 to 5-11) and that really killed my motivation. I decided to stop playing for a while, then like a week later, came back on and won a game. That ultimately was the motivation that lead me to play in Season 2, sadly XD I ended up just resetting my stats, but the new season started so I had to wait a while...
I come back, season #2, and I really want to mass game now. I start off somewhat good, getting do D+ in about 2 days with a 22-13 record(I think). Climbing the D+ ranks were somewhat hard for me; I'd be really close to getting C- then I'd fall back down 300 points and would have to play some more games. In about a week or so, my record was something like 33-27 and I was near C- rank, then I finally hit it. I was so proud of myself, seeing as I had finally hit C- rank. But, I could not keep it. I'd play C- people and would suck horribly vs them; they'd exploit so many of my weaknesses and I'd learn from it but I'd me more frustrated than informed. I ended up with a 41-40 record, C-. I didn't reach my goal of 100 games but this was the closest I got.
Season 3 was probably the best season for me, but probably the season I did not much in. I started off pretty bad, so I decided "Screw it" and reset my stats. I started off bad again, and said again, "screw it" and reset my stats again. Then, in February, I got the motivation again(due to me trying to forget the rejection I received from that girl T.T(points to first blog of mine) so I decided to play again. I started off good for some reason(late in season I guess), going with like a 11-5 record. I went through the D ranks easily and was at D+ already. I was like "woah... that was fast." I started playing D+ players and they seemed to all be easier. I was like "Woah.. wtf?" I realized I had like a 28-14 record. I was so proud of myself. I had the motivation to mass game again, no matter if I sucked ass. I started playing even more, steamrolling the C- ranks easily, and was so close to the C rank. I was like "This would be one rank higher than last season!" Then, some stuff came up, and season 4 started

T_T

Well, I was really close to C rank(was literally like 200 points away... 2 proxy gates literally XD), but, that ultimately gave me the motivation to mass game this time on ICCup. I don't know why I always lose motivation to mass game. It's not that I lose, I just don't feel like playing. Well, now, I'm going through the D ranks easily, going for D+, my goal this time is at least 150-200 games, no matter how horrible I do, and I'm analyzing all my replays to see the holes in my game.

Also, I'm just playing on Faoi. That map rawks =D

My ICCup profile!

Right now I'm 7-3. There are probably a shitton of ICCup threads out there, but I wanted to tell my story in this one.

Bye =D

EDIT: Woot, I'm 10-4! D+ FTW!
