Okay so, I just played a good game with a terran, and he beat me fair and square. I was just about to gg when he drops 3 mules infront of his bio army. I quickly pressed F10+N and kicked my desk in frustration.(Im not usually an angry player!)

Something about it just annoys the hell out of me. It is like the terran saying "LOOK HOW EZ I WIN, I DONT NEED THEZE MULEZ!!1!"

It's like offensively typing gg, though if somebody famous was to do that, he would have shit written about it all over the forums. I find it to be pretty much the same thing.

I remember watching Homestory Cup 7, where ThorZaIN said he never does it, and finds it disrespectful and BM. I gained alot of respect for that guy

What do you think? Is it right to get a bit irritated over something so unimportant? I would love to hear your opinions :D

I don't do it, but mainly because I'm scared of doing it and then somehow losing. I think the players who have the balls to do it are awesome.

Beating people who do manner mule early on is the best thing in all of starcraft I feel ^_^

I've always preferred scan sun as a method of stamping my victory, heh. Manner mules seem to elicit more hostile responses from the victims.

I don't do it but it always gives me a grin when the pros do. A manner Nexus/CC/Hatch is a far more tasty treat though, especially when the silhouette appears before it goes down.

Wasn't it Thorzain that dropped a giant "GG" made of MULEs in to his opponent's base once?

"Something about it just annoys the hell out of me. It is like the terran saying "LOOK HOW EZ I WIN, I DONT NEED THEZE MULEZ!!1!" "

That's the entire point of manner muling right? Showing the opponent that you think you have an advantage big enough that it doesnt matter what happens (hence the dropping mules at ridiculous places).

I personally dont mind manner muling. It gives me an incentive to do my best to still win. If it works, that gives an incredibly satisfying feeling.

It's fun and I bet if you could you would manner mule as well. It's part of the game (why do you think you can make your units dance?)

shouldn't the poll have the option to sort of disagree as well?

anyways I dont find it to be that big of a deal, really shouldnt be taken personally, it can be seen as bm but its a small thing.

Is it mandatory for every thread to have a poll now?
