I know very little about this guy and his liquipedia page is pretty much deserted other than the fact he popularized the immediate worker transfer once you take your natural and this was named after him. All I really found was he was a BW pro and retired in 2000. But I mention this because while I was searching through the NA daily playhem results and I saw this guys name a ton. Sine January 1st he has 6 1sts, 3 2nds and 2 3rds. I would love any information people have on Maynard and what anyone knows about his current mindset towards sc2. He obviously has some immense starcraft skill and everyone knows we could use more top quality American terrans. Thanks for any thing you might be able to share.

I don't think they're the same person.
See: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=308886&currentpage=2
The OP in that thread - the organizer of Playhem? - says they are 2 different people, but he could be wrong.
Someone said he could be MarineKingPrime.We

I don't feel this is worthy of a topic, but I admit that I'm really interested in this guy. He seems to be really good. Would be good to get more information.

I was told before it was a smurf account of a well known terran, not positive on that tho.

Very old school player I was like 12 when played this guy on b.net there was no ladder like iccup, pgtour and so on back then. One of the best at bw at this time. Don't know much about him tough i think that in one period he was part of GG team ( not gosugamers) wih Elky, and so on

Someone told me its thorzain before but I don't think its reliable. I've also heard its some korean.

I don't think it could be Thorzain, since we're talking about early stages of BW, when the term 'to maynard' was estabilished.
protect me from what I want

BW Maynard made a blog on here about him getting into SC2 some time ago too

I'll just ask Maynard next time I see him online but I'm like 99.99% sure it's not him. He's still good, but not THAT good.

I think it's a person who just made an account after an important player in SC history. Good god, if the real Maynard were still playing, he'd make White Ra look like a kid.

As a politics student I have always found it interesting that the person who invented the worker transfer uses the id of the middle name of john maynard keynes, the most influencial political economist of the twentieth century, who purported sacrificing capital when you are rich in order to smooth growth out when you are poor :d

Edit, tried to make my terrible eight o'clock in the morning english make sense.
The world is ending what should we do about it?

Cool, last time I saw him play was against Destiny during our marathon and he had skills but nothing crazy. Cool to see he's been playing a lot again.

Are you confirming 100% that its the real Maynard?
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.
