Why don't you just mute your phone and call back after the match is over? Works for me. I actually have never paused a game on iccup for the year I've played SC now. How might that be possible... Well this is a stupidly subjective argument but the fact you can't wait for 1 min> is quite shocking to me | ||

You make a game, someone joins, they dont pick a race or say anything as an indication of wanting to play, then leave because you're just sitting there waiting. Some times I've just started the game, only to see them leave later couse they werent ready. If you're not ready dont join ffs, or at least say SOMETHING. And sometimes they pause like 4 seconds after the game has started. Whats up with that, come the fuck on. And when there's slightly lagging, its never "are you lagging" or "it might be me lagging" its "?" or "????" or "?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????" and it just pisses me the fuck off, so I just reply "!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" jesus christ I swear to God one of these days its just *rattattattatata* | ||

With that said, I've usually waited up to 5 mins. Last week a korean dude paused for at least 5 mins without saying anything, so I unpaused and killed him(Although I had a huge advantage before that anyways). To make matters worse, he disced after I unpaused and I never got any points cuz the manual report shit is bugged t.t | ||

Most frustrating game ever , a ZvP, I said something like pp cause I had to take a piss (I drink a lot of water^^) he just unpauses right away, he attacks me with zealots I defend with mutas -> kill his main and his natural with muta hydra while he keeps spamming korean stuff which I can't read but it surely wasnt very friendly, he only has his hidden expansion (defended by cannons and too many HT to break with just hydras) left so I'm waiting for him to gg so I can finally take a fucking piss. But I suck so bad that eventually after he killed ashit ton of drones with HT drop and a base with DT drop I still somehow miraculously manage to lose that game, while he keeps insulting me and calling me a chobo - turns out the guy was A- the season before(my ZvP is D+ and it was a D lvl game)... arg hm OK I kinda drifted away from the topic. There can always be something annoying which you didnt expect when you play sc so I always wait as long as the guy says something. If he doesn't I'll do it like chill does and unpause after a while | ||

Then I hit him with a healthy amount of BM ("You unpause all your games to get to C-?") and built hatcheries under his floating command center. Then I infested it. | ||

 ) tell my opponent that it will only take 1 min.. or 2 mins max when i know it might take longer.If my opponent pauses without saying anything I'll say '?', if there's no response I unpause. If he's gone on the phone I'll wait 3 mins or so and then ask whats up. I don't think I need to be waiting more than 3 minutes : o Whenever my mom calls and I'm in the middle of a game I tell her I'm playing starcraft and I'll call her back later after my game's done. That's how it should be done! | ||

I only can recall ever once having to unpause a game because I got sick of waiting... but then again you've played much more ladder than me. The guy was so pissed when he got back lol I also agree with what was said that you shouldn't answer the phone while playing iccup. If you have caller ID and it's important then just quit the game; alternately if you expect an important call then don't play iccup so the issue doesn't come up. | ||
