They might be warming up so that they don't get trashed on their higher account with their first 1 or 2 games.

Yes but not having 250 apm and making good smart decisions is rarer than a mechanics machine it seems.

Well maybe they had a bad record and wanted to restart, or they kept losing and wanted to have some fun and re-build their confidence with some easy games, or maybe they hadn't had an account yet this season and everyone has to start making their way up sometime.

Many people care more about their record than their rating (not that this really makes sense). If you are getting raped in a d vs d game, the good news is, you will pretty quickly undo that deficit in the near future vs other d ranked players... and don't play people significantly below your rank once you get into C-/C so that you don't have to worry about a smurph taking all your points.

I love it when I play one of these "noob-bashers" and beat them (I don't play much so by the time I'm out of D the new season has started). They get really annoyed and start cussing me for playing below my rank.

Or there's the ones that say something along the lines of:
"lol, u got lucky noob, I'm B+ high"
"gg go re?"
combat-ex has left the game.
No I'm never serious.

I'm D+ and get 250+ apm O.O
BUT I have horrible timing and shit game sense, thus my shit rank! I wouldn't be surprised if there were lots of D+ players who had that much apm, without randomly spamming!

I don't think APM is all that accurate. For example, a friend was over the other day to do some studying and he wanted to watch me play a game of SC. I played a lot worse than usual with him watching. I had 170 APM (my high average) that game and 130eapm. I could feel myself doing things a lot slower and yet my APM was still high.

I must have been doing a lot of unnecessary actions because I was anxious. This also caused me to delay important things (like lurkers or hive tech) and every second counts. Therefore, you might have really high APM but all you're really doing is spamming. It also shows that eapm isn't an accurate indicator of your playing ability even though it might be better than apm.

Oh no, another APM bs thread.

Eapm (Effective APM) Is the only viable measure of the player's real speed. And it shows nothing but the speed itself. Fast idiot <<< Smart Panda
