i've been in the community for ages - started competing way back before replays were even introduced (although of course i wasn't that good back then, and still arent compared to the list of ppl invited, who are all like A- gamers)
I know all the invitees.. and I know my "days are numbered" in this tournament - but the tournament hoster wanted to give me a shot in there, which I appreciate ^ ^ and I will definately try my best.

some of my more known aka's that i've had would be:
88)sosha, sosha[CF]t, gO)sosha, sosha.REV, sosha(gG), SyZ-sosha, Last.Sosha and sosha[AoV]
unfortunately there was a quarrel that was brought up a long time ago that Inc (i gotz no problem w/ him) said I was kicked out of 88) for hacking.. which i've never did in compeitite 1:1 games (only time i ever hacked was WAY back in money-map days like 3:3 bgh etc, just to try it out) again, I've never hacked in 'real' ladder-type games.. I got more respect for the game and the level of competition to do that.

Protoss user btw. and considering I think jeremy said that including me, there's only 3 Protoss in the invitee list.. makes me want to do even better ><
hopefully more will qualify
and gL to all players.

You sound nice and all, but please don't try to delineate a line between acceptable hacking in "fun" games and no hacking in "real" games. Hacking is hacking, it means you have no respect and that you're a cheater, it doesn't matter where. I applaud a team for kicking you out for hacking even if it wasn't in "competition."


Perhaps I didn't make the distinction clearly.. and maybe u could take the time to understand what I mean when I say that it happened before I cared about competitve starcraft. Competitive meaning, understanding and willingness to get better @ the game. The time I 'hacked' was in the 3v3 bgh days.. or at least when I 1st started online - I had no idea about competitive 1:1 SC or pro-gaming - I didn't even hack to win for god sakes.. I didnt use it to try to win, or to cheat, I wanted to see what it was like.. and honestly, I didnt even see any point to it even in those days, so I prolly hacked about 3 games and then uninstalled.
Again, I hope ppl can understand a point here, in the fact that I was freakin' like 14-15 yrs old when this happened, and didnt know anything of the game. I started competive SC when I was like 17-18. Even since I quit the hack the 1st time, i never considered it again.

It's kind of a retarded point to bring up the "once a hacker always a hacker" idea.. I mean, are ppl still this harsh on ppl like Testie, MrZzzz or the other infamous hackers of the community (who actually hacked for live competition games)??

Anywho - like I tried saying - Inc said that he kicked me out for "hacking" but that was never the case. I wasn't kicked out of any team for that reason - as I have never hacked in competitive SC, meaning ladders, team-games, CW's etc.. (going back to my statement, that was years b4 i started competitive sC)

There's really no point in responding; TL has its fair share of trolls (LokiM for example) and nothing you say will make any difference whatsoever. Your first post was more than clear enough, but people have the unique ability to selectively read what they want to and ignore the rest. My advice is to edit this out, stop posting, and just play the tournament.

For the people on this website, if some kid who played SC in 8th grade gets on when he's 25 and plays a few FPM games with a maphack on, they'll tell him to eat shit, die, slit his wrists, kill himself, etc, and be entirely serious about it. The people here lack the perspective to understand that to most people outside their small, intense, community, hacking in SC is no different than using a cheat with an SNES emulator, or playing Red Alert 1 with some cheats active.

meh - to kinda settle a bit of a dispute I offered incontrol my spot in the tournament 'cause I know he's a better player than me.
adrenaline offered or invited me in that spot cause well he's the host and a good friend of mine and wanted to give me a chance, which I appreciate.
However, reading over most of the pages and seeing that inc apprently wanted a invite pretty badly and didnt get one =[ I figured he could take my spot and i'll just try in the qualifying tournaments.

I mean, im realistic here.. I know I would most likely lose 1st round against who ever I played, but would be fun to try and adrenaline was trying to give me that chance.

imo. You should keep your spot since inc will probably qualify.

wasn't a troll

his post implied that he was kicked out of 88) for hacking, and i assume that means more than 1 game when playing FMP in your first game of bnet

If someone's willing to put up the money, then he can invite whomever he wants. It's not like Sosha somehow harms the integrity of a fun tournament that is being played "for the love of the game".

We all need to chill. And qualify. I definitely need to lose in one of the qualifiers just for fun. Playing better players makes you better.

I think that you are clearly intelligent enough to ascertain that what I said was not meant to be analogous to his situation in any but the lightest sense, but rather to give an example of how TL reacts to even the meanest of hacking.
