Well if both players are lagging then what's the problem? You both get the same handicap.

which part of your sentence is the /sarcasm for ?


the "dimly recalling it's name as ICCUp" part. I was very active in the ICCUp staff up until the SC:R announcement.


Did you have automated matchmaking in iccup?

Did blizzard suddenly ban iccup?

Yeah when did iCCUP have automatchmaking?

I also remember lots of people (including me for a while) couldn't host and also iCCUP map pool became awful each week as it was limited thanks to the iCCUP staff seemingly only caring about DOTA.

iCCup actually does have Blizzard beat in one area. They showed that they had no issue banning entire cities.

Too busto for a $15 dollar game, dam that's rough. You live under a bridge and only eat off the dollar menu?

Probably just children with frugal parents. I grew up the same, and it very much makes you see things overpriced just because you know if something costs anything, your parents aren't going to buy it for you. It's wishful thinking.

Now that I'm a successful adult member of the workforce, $15 seems very cheap; but I do sympathise for those in the position I grew up in.
Oh no

Blizzard should add Iccup to supported servers, since they are being bitches and don't want people who don't want to pay for RM to be able to get matchmaking, atleast they need a ranking system for new people to not get obliterated match after match

The demographics of this site would be interesting. Certainly the release of SC2 would have reduced the average age I think.
Oh no

So we have:

- Awesome new HD graphics
- Fixed portforwarding issues
- Cross compatibility between clients (SCR can play with 1.19)
- Automated match-making
- Support for modern OS
- No change to gameplay
- Chance to revive the Korean BW and maybe even the foreign BW scene

All the above and people complain about paying $15 for it and Blizzard being money hungry. Sometimes TL never fails to surprise.

Maybe, but even then SC2 was released 7 years ago. I imagine most of those players are now in their early 20's if they started playing at 13.
When I think of something else, something will go here

to be fair it's a small very vocal minority who are whining about that, I mean I don't know how they can afford an internet connection anyway
