Uhg... Today I lost 3 of my 7 games. And everyone I should have won. In one this guy puts a zeal at every expo and expos to the two island expos. It should be easy to counter, but dumb me just keeps sending a lone drone...

Anyway, for those who are interested I may start my blog again. I'm sorry there were only two entries, but I'll try for more.

They are the noobs but you are losing? That sounds backwards to me.

I think I know how you feel. I'm noob, though. But there are so, SO many games I play where I SWEAR up and down I should win. I scout them, I know what's coming, I know what I should do to stop it. And then I FAIL.

yeah, feels good to be D+.

Eh, if they are noobs and beating you then you have to see what you are doing wrong, because it means you can't be that much better than them. Or maybe re-consider your definition of noob. Either way, a win is a win, whether it be through the mistakes of your opponent - same goes for loss.

It doesn't mean your a noob if you lose to a noob, what if a noob terran somhow plants a mine in a protoss mineral line, and he loses all his probes. Shit happens, personally sometimes i lose cause i just don't kno wtf my opponent is doing. Just cause what he is doing makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

I hate noobs who are convinced that the other guy is a noob despite just being steamrolled.

I hope that's not you Tribe.

sometimes you play badly or you commit a huge mistake that cost the game, so you lose to noobs. that doesnt mean you are a noob. wtf
Part of the inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest.

I think, when you can identify an inferior player early in the game, you need to watch out for things that can even it out (like not responding correctly to zealots/dt blocking expanding drones)... it doesn't mean you get an easy free win or else you will lose some unless the skill difference is huge.

Yeah, but in this case, no luck or cheese occurred, or the OP failed to mention it. Actually, he knew what was coming but failed to win, which means he simply got outplayed.

wtf if i saw a forge 1st in a tvp, and it wasnt a ranked game i would leave asap instead of wasting time. But if it was a ranked game then i would do a safe build like FD with e-bat b4 cc.

I think you're just the sore loser type with a bad temper.
If you lose because of your mistakes, how does calling your opponent a noob help?
You failed to beat them in one fair game, but are still arrogant enough to claim that you're better.
Basically your definitions of "noob" and what makes a "better player" are flawed.
This blog is childish.

Well, this was unintentional. <.<

I don't know what made people think that this blog was one of complaint rather than what it was, sarcastic. Didn't anyone read, "But dumb me just keeps sending a lone drone?" Anyway, it I guess it doesn't really matter what people make of it, I'm just kinda disappointed that people were so hostile about something that I indented to be funny.

Sorry, I won't share it again.

Sorry, it wasn't obvious sarcasm at all and I was just lumping you with all those idiots that call you "noob" after you effortlessly beat them, then quit b.net when you ask for a rematch.

FUCK I was so enraged after just losing to Rock's favorite goon carrier combo that I cleared stats on my C 30-10 account ;;;;;;; I had so god damn many 2-2 goliaths but that combo is just unbelievably damaging against them -_-
