[rant] Jesus christ... is it hard enough to get a decent internet connection so I don't have to see your ass on the drop screen every 30 sec when I'm trying to play some micro intensive tvz.

So I've probably played against 5 9pools in my career 2 of which happened in the past half hour. Now normally thats fine, except when I'm doing a fucking 8rax cheese in the middle of the map... the first time i've ever attempted this cheese and the guy fucking 9pools. Next game "Hey I feel like mixing it up a bit instead of 1 rax fe every game" so I go for a 2 rax sunk bust... oh look another 9 pool to fuck me over.

Then I have to go back into the channels so I search Ladder D, Ladder D [2], and Ladder D [3]... 150 fucking people and not a single one wants to play a 1v1 D. And when I do finally see some chat that lets me know the whole world isn't in a nuclear holocaust its in korean so I get to see 30 lines of "???? ?? ????"

I started the season something like 7-2... and I've managed to lose like 6-7 straight, FML.

Also every game has to be fucked up somehow... I should have 3 more wins buuuuuuuuut 2 wins some fucking noobs decided to make it "Melee" instead of "One on One" thanks for that... and another I get dc'ed in the middle of the game but it continues... I have no idea how that happens, and I manage to win but don't get the points because I dc'ed. As I'm complaining to iccup admins it literally takes 6 days for them to tell me that it was melee games and they only accept one on one.

I'm sure more reasons will come to me, as I decided to play another game when I was formulating my thoughts to see if it would cool me down, but it just gave me more rage. [/rant]

I apologize for my harsh language.

Tl;DR... I'm having a bad iccup day.

Why are you double proxy raxing and complaining about being nine pooled?

Every day there is about 1-2 ICCUP SUCKS blogs where people give a whole list of items that are all their fault.

If you aren't satisfied, I will hook you up with the ICCUP Complaints Department Branch Of Teamliquid

I probably play about 10 games a day and guess what I do every game... 1 rax FE, or 1 fax FE, I can hardly contain my joy of doing this every game.

And I'm complaining about getting 9pooled on my cheese because thats my first hardcore cheese ive done on iccup and I've probably been 9pooled a single digit amount of times... now I'm not much for statistics but...

EDIT: Because in a 2rax the first rine is ready when the 6 zerglings hit your base... and I didn't have the opportunity of seeing it coming

easy there tonto. practice some more and care less about your record/rank(you seem to care a lot judging by your infuriation over winning in melee mode) and you'll be smiling every time the zerg 9 pools.
Im pretty good at whistling with my hands, especially when Im holding a whistle.

And this is ICCUP`s fault...how exactly?

If it makes you feel any better, I can safely say I am the worst player in the history of StarCraft. So whenever you lose, just remember that whatever might happen, there is at least one person doing worse then you.

2 rax is supposed to make you safer against 9 pool, not the other way around >.<. If you really hate 9 pools that much, just 10 rax on iccup (instead of 11).

Considering 9pool isn't even so much 'cheese' as 'being safe against ridiculous terran cheese on iccup', I don't see why you're complaining. One marine + 4 scvs can block 9pools... >>;

I checked the rep and my second rine WAS on my ramp when the 6 zerglings got there but I was definitely unprepared, so yeah I had a little more defense but with no scv's blocking I got owned...

And granted my micro is atrocious so the rines popping as the zerglings were running around my base were killed pretty easily as I was attempting to block with some scv's

This. Even on a 4 player map, you should be able to scout that a 9 pool is coming fast enough to get scv's on your ramp.
