I finally managed to kill the comp using only 1 probe in 34:07. I wasted over an hour of my life including all of the restarts.
Try it, it's harder than you think. The SCVs "forget" that they are trying to attack you, and then go back to harvest mins so they can *gasp* repair the CC, or build more SCVs. Can you beat 34:07?
By the way, is there any way to tell SC to NOT start the game on a slow speed? It's annoying to have to hit F10 and change the speed every single game when I didn't scout the comp first.
::EDIT:: I got it down to 17, but the record is 10.

Press + on your keypad a few times at game start. It's faster.

fuuuck.....
it works for me. I'll re-upload it.
Oh well, its not like its something to be proud of.
no way i'm going to lose after 20 mins because its going down in under 20 mins.
btw i'm cheating i'm sending 3 to scout and using the one that finds them so i dont have to restart. i was thinking of using the other 3 to mine then wall their scvs off so they can't use them, but thats cheating too much.
Yeah the rep goes for 34 mins, i watched it again this time the probe dies at the 2 min mark and you die at the 8.
FUCK i was kicking ass and got it down to 490 hit points and was clicking on the CC to see how long until it starts to burn down and i lost my probe ao;fdgaodfhadf;goadgh fuck 13 mins too TT

How did you do it that fast? I guess I got paranoid after losing so many times when I got so far (I lost twice in a row at 800-900 health).
lol i got an idea, called the hexatron dream team challenge, first person from the hdt to do the probe micro thing in the fastest time wins $10 no not really, but just an idea
uhm, rep still corrupted! try playing on LAN UDP (Multiplayer), i use that to play against comps when im bored, its just the same as lan ipx except you dont have to configure anything
Um if rep is corrupting for some but not others that means some of you are trying to play it as a multiplayer game (B.net, IP/UDP, Direct Connect, etc.) and some of you are trying to play it in single player... whichever the game was played on is what the rep should be played on.
Sorry pusan was bugging me all day to play him for challenge league practice, and he rang up eliza to get me to game so i couldn't get out of it so i was busy for a while.
I'll upload them to a site, but someones going to have to stick it elsewhere as its only geocities (had to zip it too, they dont like *.rep TT)

i did it in 13:14 AND they repaired AND my probe died when the CC had 30hp so it had to burn for the rest of that time ;o
i got better as i went... the CC got to 1000hp at 5:25 mins and it got to 500hp a short 4:40 mins later... then of course with the burning the remaining 500hp went down much faster, despite repair and dead probe ;o
god, FUCK.. was down to 600 at 17 with 1hp and died.. gay. I thought I had it free when they started mining again, then they came back and almost killed me
ok i thought i could improve my technique a little so i did it one more time.. got 10:26 with 215 APM :O no doubt 10:00 could be broken, and im not sure how much lower it could go after that... im not gonna try anymore :O here is the replay http://www.duke.edu/~tjw4/probe kill 1026.rep
I didn't bother reading through this and i'm sure it's been said already. But no, you don't have more patience than anyone here, nor have you proved it.

omg hehuehuhueheuheuhe i cant believe a progamer downloaded this rep to see what happens T_T what would the progamer's god say?? "BANNED"
I ended up getting bored so I put on cheats and learned how to do the "Mass storm" thingy (where you take 3 temps, storm 1 point and it ends up being 3 diff storm locations.)
attack-> move->attack-> move-> attack-> move-> attack-> move->go around scvs-> attack->move-> attack-> move-> attack-> move-> attack-> move-> go around scvs-> move-> attack-> move-> attack-> move-> attack-> move-> attack-> move-> go around scvs-> move
until its health was 900. Then, my wrist started hurting, so I clicked past the CC so my probe would go there and I could rest my rest for like 1.5 seconds, but I misclicked on the CC, so my probe didn't move. It died. GG

testie's post is very true trust me anyone who has played ffa with testie knows that nobody in the world has more patience than him fuck, his 1v1 style (especially with terran) often revolves around boring his opponent to tears, making him attack and waste everything, and then countering.

sooo gay :D
how about scouting?
it doesnt work! because the entire time he maintains an apm of 150 through telling his bcs to move really tight together in a corner! this one time I had 3 comsats constantly scanning, mostly his base and around it, for at least 15 minutes, and I didn't find any units of his.

Anyway, i tried the probe thing.. it wasnt that hard until the comp decides "oh lets start mining sense the probe is regenerating energy at his base, make 5 probes and repair the whole cc!"
Than i started cussing the comp out and massed carriered on the bitch. He deserved it.
i clicked quote instead of edit.. gays (i just realized)

I started to read the thread from the beginning, thinking "oh, I'll try that, see if I can beat 34 mins...", then I kept reading and saw people beating it. Then I saw Nony posted that he did it and had 200 apm. I laughed that Nony would be goofing around on something like this right after his best of 5.
Then I noticed the dates.
I was thinking a silly bump, until I found the bumping post. Epic. So fucking epic.
I have spent my entire life spending between 2-14 hours a day studying classical music. About half of that was spent by myself in a practice room with my instrument, the other half was either rehearsals or studying musical writings or scores. I have more patience than you. I spend my free time watching starcraft. wtf is wrong with me.
P.S. What did the recapitulation say to the bifocal close? A: "what? you again?"
if you understand that joke you have reached an elite level or music nerd that few have achieved.

It's not that they don't get your joke, it's that you don't seem to get that the first post (and every post made before today) is roughly 63 months old.
Also seems like you missed what was so amazing about the bump, but that's more understandable.

god it took me like 2 hours during the TL SC2 beta giveaways to finally get a time under 10 minutes, only to have Nony change his mind and take the key :/
lol i remember the original bump. one of the funniest and greatest bumps in TL history. I still cannot IMAGINE how the guy remembered this thread right after the TSL.

He probably remembered it because this thread was mentioned in like pony express or something the week before.

Apparently he got one, because his icon in this thread is a probe, even though he has over 2000 posts.
And yes, original bump is probably the best bump ever in the history of bumpage.

Not sure how I missed this the first time around...
On a completely unrelated note, does anyone else find it interesting that all these old threads are being bumped so much more often with the rise of SC2?

It's to show the love for BW to newcomers.. And to make them keep up the quality of the threads =)

regarding the saved replay issues... wtf is up with this? The first time I beat 7 comps I saved the replay (3 hours long) and when I showed my friend the replay, it showed me dying at about the 30 minute mark... so I did it again and saved the actual game and the replay, then at the 30 minute mark it showed me dying again, so I loaded the saved game of where I had made it half way through killing them all... is Blizzard trying to keep us from showing people that their AI sucks? lol

no not really, but just an idea
