1) You probably alt-tabbed into game and because the key-up wasn't captured, the alt key was perma-down. 2) You box selected overlord with all drones and some larva and right clicked to mine. 3) Then you selected a drone to split, but because the alt key was down, what the alt key does is it selects the last group of units that the target unit was in. Therefore, you ended up selecting all drones and overlord. | ||

Seen it twice, at the start of a game some months apart. That sounds like you might have been holding Ctrl, or recently held Ctrl. I'm not sure but perhaps latency can affect this? I imagine Argentina gets some sick latency with other places TT__TT | ||

Likely just a stuck modifier key (which mostly happens due to window/focus switches while the modifier key is held, and then coming back into the window without it held down), as other people have said. You can basically always fix this by just tapping the modifier keys again. | ||

I've had similar issues in other games, but I think it may be that my PC is too slow for them  | ||
