EPTanyway I find stopping after about 24 in pvp to be "ideal".
but I could also justify stopping after 20. making 30 probes before exp however, is suicide in pvp against a competent opponent.

I can't remember if there is much difference between mining like 4 bases with 18 or 6 bases with 12 probes each. And that would depend on the patch number. 18 is the best for 8 patches. Testing it is annoying and it probably won't make that much difference, but if you want a pretty small improvement go and figure this out :p | ||

current suplly - 1 ( if u r making a scv ) - total supply of units beside scvs ( this shouldnt be too hard on the begining ) - number of scvs on gas ( usually 3 :D ) . and if u play many games with this 18 thing in mind u will be timed for it i guess . | ||
