Yay!!!!!!! This morning I was playing iCCup and finally managed to reach my goal of C- this season. Last season I set myself for only D+ and managed to reach it about 2/3 way through the season, and then tried to reach C- but I don't think I played enough games because every day I would only come out ~50 points ahead of what I started with so I only made it to about 2500 points.

This season I reached D+ rather quickly(for me ), getting to it in the first 2 weeks and started to play more than usual this week. Today I reached my goal of C- and I am so happyyyyyyyyyy

I play Terran as my main but I offrace as P instead of playing TvT

In celebration I bring one of my more epic(although still not that epic) games to show you. In this 43 minute game I was toss playing PvT because of my TvT problem, and it went from a standard opening to a timing push from him, to him containing me, to trying to break out with arbiters, to recalling his main, to carriers, to trying to get him to GG after camping on his last expo,all the while basically mining out the map(on Longinus). I am suprised I made a comeback this game, I was sure he had me(and he probably would have too if he more aggressive).

Anyway here is my iCCup profile; I have a 53% winning rate, and my stats are 31-28.
And here is the replay.

*My profile may take a little bit to refresh and add my last win*

Yeah I know. I doubt I will reach it this season but I will keep playing for practice so possibly next season.

Nah I think it is harder too. First season I played I actually did manage to get to D+, but the players seemed pretty easy. Next season(last one) I had trouble getting to D+, so instead of setting my goal as one up from my first one(which would have been C-) I figured people were hard enough where D+ would be a suitable goal. This season I got D+ rather fast so I set it for C- this time. Definitely getting harder though =/

No, I kind of agree with you. I reached my goal of D+ this season but I get keep getting knocked right back to D because of players who were C last season.

I think just a couple more weeks and the playing level should balance itself.

Woah, I was around 11-2 myself. D players were just insanely easy. However, those D+ are something else. Although some of my opponents have been C last season.

Np haha, I know how you feel. I only "gg" when I honestly believe it was a good game as well. I used to play Z and I'm sure I would have been upset enough where I wouldn't have either.

Fucking awesome
Being red IMO is horrible, it's like the color of F for fail on an assignment, the colour of your units after they die, and the color of Warning and Danger signs and stuff

Grats! I've only been playing on ICCup a couple of weeks, so I wouldn't know whether the previous season was easy or not, but goddamn, I cant ever actually find a D-/D player. Every player I face has like >180 APM (mine is 80). Extremely frustrating.
