oh my

this was one of those "everything went totally fucking wrong days"

oh well
to give a little recap, first I couldn't sleep until 6+ am due to a combination of a snoring roommate and hm, I dunno. snoring was probably the major factor. dirty cheating canadians, as the snoring roommate just happened to be the canadian team leader. then, I woke up at 9:56, oh, and not to mention that I dreamt I lost before that. ) (games started at 10)
then I ran out to get a cab, the fucking taxi driver started driving the wrong direction because she didn't know the direction to the bill graham civic auditorium. so I told her to drive to city hall which was pretty close. was already ~10 minutes late with no delays, and that delayed me with like 2 minutes. then, while driving towards there, some motherfucker has a fucking heart attack in the street. I have never in my life seen someone have a heart attack before, and it happens the first time in years where I am in a real big hurry. delayed me with another minute. also tried calling 911, but they were occupied and not responding. well, I guess I shouldn't be that selfish, getting a heart attack sucks more for him than it does for me

then I sprint from where the taxi stopped to the playing area, so I was sorta short on breath when I arrived, at least that woke me up though. we play, I didn't have any time to adjust mouse settings and stuff, paused once to correct but it was still too fast for me, and in addition I got random terran vs random zerg with cross position on martian. (ideal matchup for me would be random z vs random p, other matchup I wanted was random z vs random t. random t vs random z was what I wanted the least out of everything. T_T ) I go tech, he goes exp, hatch in main, pool. in addition I played like crap and just got downright raped.

second game I get a red bull, correct mouse speed, and then we play gorky. I get random zerg vs random protoss.
however in that game I played decent and at some point of the game felt I could win, ended up losing though. not blaming the loss on my bad luck but I'm fairly certain if he had gotten my races and my pregame warmup thing and I had gotten his, the result wouldve been reversed.

but oh well
shit happens, I'm content.

Testie here (for this message). Yes yes I lucked out vs Eri. I felt bad he got 0% sleep and all... T_T
But it was random vs random on two best random players you know... what can you do.. someone must get lucky.. i thank the god of luck for letting me get lucky.
I hate him for letting me get overconfident vs foru and wasting my units when i think win. Wow, good control :D!!

Fuck dewd, I really threw those games vs zelotito

First game on Dahlia me 9z vs 6p, I did a usual 12 hatch expand to my min only, 11 pool. Then I took my gas natural, and proceeded with sunken and lurker tech after that. Only mistake was, that I assumed he was just going to make like 10 zealots and try to kill my gas natural, but he made 2 dt's with it, so I lost my gas natural. That was the gamedeciding factor. I got back pretty well, with drops on his gas natural, and I delayed it a lot, then I dropped his min only too, so he didn't have income, but his bigass army killed my main ;/

after that it became a 35 minute game, but it was over when he killed my main

Second game on gorky was stupid, in the end he had like 5 carriers and 8 corsair, I first just wasted 16 wraiths to nothing, then in the end I lost all my goliaths almost to stupid corsairs

2 bad moves in both games cost me that match T_T
