Oh god I need to start playing again...

Even though me in shape still loses to 90% of staff out of shape.

I think I'm 1-1 with fakesteve though, and like 0-20 with Insane

we had a staff league it was called newbleague this past summer. i will list the results and 1v1 records of all the staff members who participated, their ELOs are next to their records (the "average" player was 1000 rating). I will also include notable forum veterans as a measuring stick.

1. OneOther - 15-4 (1299)
2. Insane - 14-2 (1250)
3. Chill - 18-5 - (1141)
4. Fonger - 5-0 (1135)
5. intrigue - 20-11 (1094)
6. ClouD - 6-2 (1090)
7. Rage - 16-12 (1088)
8. SuperJongMan - 6-4 (1055)
9. Carnac - 1-0 (1027)
10. littlechava - 12-11 (1016)
11. HotBid - 16-12 (987)
12. Plexa - 0-1 (975)
13. Manifesto7 - 1-2 (971)
14. DeadVessel - 16-19 (966)
15. GTR-2-Go - 6-13 (932)
16. micronesia - 7-14 (885)
17. thedeadhaji - 2-7 (884)
18. FakeSteve - 4-12 (857)
19. LastRomantic - 1-10 (808)

I think these rankings (current as of August 2008) are pretty accurate about people's levels when everyone was relatively active.

The only one that isn't 100% accurate is me, because since this league, I've practiced an insane amount and am now easily B on ICCup. No I haven't actually reached B, but I am pretty sure I'd win at 50% pretty soundly if I were to try.

Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

Remember that game GTR (T, 6) vs Grinq (P, 9) @ Python? GTR was doing some sort of biomech build and Grinq was murdering him. Then Grinq started getting cocky and almost lost while getting Carriers.

That's the only game I've ever seen someone land an Engineering Bay in the center of their opponent's main, research +1, and have it finish. I was crying by the end of that game.

my favorite showmatch moment was Grinq vs Pressure ZvT where Pressure was up like 150 to 50 supply, and intrigue as a BM obs nukes one of Pressure's armies as he was eliminating Grinq's main, and Grinq was really pissed because the nuke would "invalidate his win" if he were to come back hahaha

Grinq also lost 6 Defilers that were moving to Pressure's main without an army for unknown reasons. He got one misplaced swarm off from the six.

who is the best player on staff?


Kinda like this, just counting colored names:

Eri
Naz
Twisted if he got off his ass
Chill/Insane
cow/intrigue (intrigue you're better than me right?)
FakeSteve/Manifesto/Rage
everyone else

i might be missing one or two

Insane's T is way better than my Z, but his P sucks ass. It's actually kind of unbelievable and humbling how good Insane's TvZ is. I'm not sure why it's so good when he plays P. I'm better than Naz and I've never played Twisted. Eri is better than me, though.


I think Steve meant something like 'in their prime' or some shit lol.
