Hmmmmm....but not another Iccup rant Blog...Nope instead this is going to be a bored and annoyed, half 1 in the morning "My wins don't count as wins" blog. That will coincidentally rant in a bored and annoying manner.

So I've not been terribly active over the last month...bleh bleh whatever, schoolwork and such (writing essays on the monarchy of Sweden which coincidentally is similiar to talking to someone with the personality of a door) only coming on periodically to make sure the internet hasn't imploded and that my keyboard still works.

So it was to a great deal of dismay when I realised that after going 5-0 at D on iccup, finally having a couple of weeks with nothing major going on, my record instead read 1-4. Annoyed, I cleared my stats and started again. Another 5-0, and now my record read 2-3. I had a hulk moment, which quickly passed.

Now whenever I'm in a game I get a "you have lost connection to B.net" message and after finishing the game get a loss, regardless of the outcome. I'm starting to feel like a member of the Green Party

Now keeping nerdrage under control is difficult at the best of times, but doing it when most of your wins are counting as losses is something else. Still being the calm and collected individual that I like to think I am I turned off brood war and am taking a break. Y'know, one of those 2 am breaks that you can only have when you're 18.

I think if I go back on I'll need to kill someone if it happens again

So this is somewhat of an annoyed and bored rant, which has made me feel noticeably more sane, but if anyone reads this and knows wtf is going on, that would also be nice

:p this is the greatest blog ever. I'm going to go buy myself a 2am cookie to celebrate.

Don't think 2am breaks are restricted to 18yos! I'm 22 and have them all the time, dammit.

I remember I was so happy when I finally got to like 1980 points and I knew that i would finally be D+ after just another game or 2... except that the season ended just then ><.
Can't believe I'm still here playing this same game

Somehow, I just don't play for weeks, come back online and win games. I play like a game a day and I win them. That's how I made it to D+.

I haven't played ICCup in a long time! Do I need to download anything else besides the iccup launcher?

lol the point of this blog wasnt actually to gather tips on how to hit D+ but oh well. I guess if one guy thinks I'm high then I can count this as a victory.

Who cares about ladder rank? The wins are where it counts, not the points. Besides, you probably have more points than I get with all my wins counted.
