Yea, i occasionally got banned for using it, thats why i switched to WLauncher. Whatever it's not a big deal, you only need to change Format and System Locale (not location).

It is possible to remove the announcement at the beginning of the game that says you are using mcalauncher. I never had any korean complaining about mcalauncher. Only the relatively high ping was/is the issue. I wish i was Russian or American so I'd be able to play Fish without lags :D

How can TT1 have such a low ping (244 - eastern Canada) ?
We are much closer to Korea than him with ping 300+.

I also experienced lag w/ mca on Fish (even with relatively decent ping), game feels much smoother w/ WLauncher.

Another wave = 1 person amongst the population of 25k+ users on fish. Are you being serious right now?

You can choose if you want to play with foreigners or not. Koreans outnumber them 100:1 at LEAST. No need to be an asshole. Also you can see their ping when they join the lobby. If you're so inclined to not play people with 100-150 more ping than normal feel free to boot them. Not doing Brood War any good acting like you are though.

Also to note I play on fish too and I don't feel like I'm obligated to play with koreans. I have 300 ping and if they boot me, fine. I know how frustrating the experience is when I play on ICCup with people who have 500+ ping and it isn't fun. It doesn't even feel like Brood War to me when the game has to played in incremental phases cause of how bad the lag is. But unlike you, some people don't mind. And not all foreigners want to ladder on the fish server. Grow up.

Another progamer who can't play the game at high latency network. You are just so spoiled, it's just ladder not sponsored games for money or tournament.

Even most of progamers accept high latency network --

Sry. I was away from this thread for a while. Yes. I forgot to mention about changing format as well when you are changing the system locale.

You can have the location in the US. That's what I did when I was in CA.

It is annoying that you have to type "sksms gksrnrdls" all the time when you restart your SC.
If you really want to fix that, you have to change your operation system in Korean(like Win7 KR) as display and stuff.
I do not know how exactly this autolock features, but with Win7 professional, I couldn't do anything about it.
