What's squelch? I like the idea of Hegemon its just sometimes it goes beserk and starts spamming the chat, and even when I go in game he'll be messaging "Welcome to...etc for the first 30 seconds or so"

I've been playing solely using "eco-ish" 2gate and 1gate openers against zerg with a lot of success at the d+ / c- level. I've always felt that people dismiss one base pvz openers way too quickly, just because its not as effective as ffe at pro level. Besides, it's way more fun having units throughout the whole game to probe and prod at the zerg instead of turtling up with cannons and moving out later :D

Hmm... that's not it, it's like an article that makes a lot of general statements about sc and I remember it going into the differences in getting "tech, army, and eco", I want to show it to a friend who's newish to SC.

slowly and surely my ports are being used up. i am now at 6117. my router says the other ports are in use or something. I keep having to change ports because my IP address keeps changing. Is there any way I can free up the ports? I want to use 6112 again.

Have you tried using the port forwarder on mca64 launcher? It forwards port 6112 and seems to.always work even though the same thing you described was happening to me before too

Well in your router options it should show a list of all ports that have been forwarded and what IP they're assigned to with options to clear/reassign. If mca works for you though I don't see the point in bothering with all that.
