In response to shiverfish's wonderful first Here it is I became curious as to what had been the first post of the other users of TL.net and wether they simply jumped into the strategy section or made an introduction.
So i have made this blog in hopes that you will post here your very first post and if ambiguous maybe a brief description of where and why you posted.
without further ado here is mine

I believe gay marriage should be aloud simply because I think we should jump the hurdle on not offering equal legal rights ( and don't say marriage isn't a right because saying it's something only some people of a certain community is privileged to is very KKKesque) to people because of their race, gender, sexual, orientation, religion, etc...
"No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
But this is a controversial piece of the constitution I guess...
this was on the Prop 8 thread, to ban gay marriage. in retrospect it sucked as a first post and maybe i should have introduced myself first XD
PS: i did a search and found no thread like this, but my search skills aren't what they should be and it was a brief search ^ ^
lol scratch that i found it XDXDXD delete please ^ ^

As were everyone else's (Especially the two Muta builds.) I'm bumping this thread for a little bit more comprehensive ZvP and to a lesser extent ZvZ. Thanks, LeperKahn
P.S. Chill, I watched some of your older videos explaining the Zerg matchups. While they may have been dated, I'm low enough level that it helped a ton. Thanks!
This was me looking for build order info. The thread was made by a friend of mine since I wasn't able to make threads yet. =D Funnily enough, after I bumped the thread only one other person responded thanking chill for his FPVODs and asking for more of them.
Also, I think this idea of reposting your first post has existed before as a general section thread, but no reason not to restart it.
On February 17 2009 05:19 WhenHellfreezes wrote: I play as zerg for my main race and I have the following problem. I am trying to develope an internal timing such that every time larva is created I instinctively know to go and macro my next round of units.
The problem is however that most people, myself included, learn through my mistakes. When you forget a macro round as terran or protoss and you look back at your base to see unused production buildings and you think to yourself oh fuck I messed up. You can easily recognize that you made a mistake. Since you can recognize this mistake you can get better at the macro timings for your units. However if you miss a macro round as zerg and then hit 4sz5sz6so7sh or something like that you don't see the built up larva and can't learn from your mishap as easily.
Another factor in the problem is that zerg has different build times for units and larva. Because of this I can't just wait till I see units pop to start my next round of macro.
Basically my problem is this: I want to macro when larva pops up but I don't feel like just playing the game gets you used to the timing all that well. I would post a replay but I dont feel it would be relevant.
Is there a better way to go about learning this internal timing or should I just play the game more?
I'm currently working on a skeleton translation for the MSL groups so that you guys can get the gist of the remarks thrown at one another (some were quite hilarious). I had a question though (TL newbie here) -- after I finish, where should I post it?
...Then proceeded in finishing the MSL Group selection translations in this thread - LINK (courtesy of IntoTheWow-thanks!)

I finaly had been able to arrange a battle on a battle field .. directly above the temple .. so his troops were open to massive flanks. well I had 4 defilers for darkswarm, but instead of W I hit G so I plauged myself 4 times, effectivly killing my entire army ... =p another good one was it was a muta vs muta, we had bad colors like red vs orange or orange vs brown, colors that make massive muta micro battles hard, well basicly I was trying to draw him away from his expo with my group so I could ling him ... so I got a queen + ensare to slow him down, well I had my mutas stacked and a battle developed very fast and I ensared my entire group of muta, with a misclicking, allowing him to kill both of my spires, and all my mains drones. =p
My first post was in a 'worst in game mistakes thread'

I wasn't in that game but I remember reading your comment and thinking .. ahha I just did the same thing!
Though I haven't played on iccup, I used to shake a bit. I found that joking with your opponent helps relieve the stress, and remind you that you are playing a game for fun. By the way, how does one start playing on iccup?
