EPTObituary: SC2Necro
November 29, 2011 - April 27, 2012
The name SC2Necro is open to interpretation. Was he a necromancer playing SC2? Would he alone raise SC2 from the e-sports grave? Or was he a zombie bashing at a keyboard? Our chance to find out for certain ended with the sticky sweet thud of a banhammer to the back of his skull. In our realm the practitioners of dark arts take classes in Defense Against Team Liquid.
Did you know?
Starcraft Two Necro is an anagram of Watercraft Consort? But perhaps he wasn't just a filthy pirate man-whore. It's also an anagram of Attracts Force Worn. So perhaps the Forsworn Conspiracy isn't limited to Markarth but now goes all the way to the top!
Posting History
18 minutes after joining SC2Necro made his first post thanking Excalibur_Z for writing the league and ladder guide. One line posts were a hallmark of his time with us, polite feedback was not. It took him 27 posts to receive his first warning.
Mostly his time was spent in tournament threads typing stream of consciousness one liners. Outside of tournaments he rarely returned to a thread, he simply typed his thought and left. Adding a lack of imagination to what was destined to become a forgettable posting history, SC2Necro showed even his insults were thoughtless as he variously called three pros "worst", "bad" and "mediocre".
It was as if he knew his typing was a waste of everyone's time, even his own. And as his sub conscious raged at this circumstance a plan was formed. Not a good plan. Not a plan that made sense. Certainly not a plan that involved more typing than usual. But it was still a plan! No one can take that away from him. He planned to be remembered!
Manbat! Bagbot! MotTown!
Nobody is clear on what was going through BWNecro's mind when he accused the entire TL community of having carnel knowledge of a certain moderator (1). From the spelling we can only be mostly sure who he meant. Apparently aware he needed to cut his losses with writing, spelling, and perhaps the entire English language, he switched to pictures to get his point across. Pictures from his work as a filthy pirate man-whore.
There was a great conflict within SC2Necro. He had a desire to communicate coupled with the knowledge his thoughts weren't worth the time taken to write them. In his blaze of glory he showed they weren't worth the time needed to spell them.
But though it was tinged with irony he achieved his purpose and gave us a message to remember:
Damn you, mrobot.
Damn you.
Damn you.
TL.net Bot called time of (re/un)death: 10:21, April 27 2012. SC2Necro was buried, as requested, near his home on Pirate Whore Island.
