Yeah I saw the series already, was a nice game.
Anyway, the annoying thing I've seen recently is everyone complaining on CaStrO, because he used to pause 1235123123 times in game. I saw Arew and ret writing this and telling they will insta-unpause if this happens again :D
GG!

Someone said that Castro works in an internet cafe and he has to pause to serve customers etc. Dunno if that is true but even if so, a short announcement before he pauses shouldn't be a problem.

Even if you let your opponent know that you need to pause it just screws you over mentally, i hate it when i'm completely inside the game and it just pauses and you are forced to cool down, it's impossible to gain that momentum again.

Anyway, the game is pretty good, definitely worth a look.

Yeah, this is true. If I read ret correctly, one of the pauses was around 15 minutes long. That's just ridiculous.

I think pausing is a good strategy because you can look and re-evaluate your situation, and plan the game with a clearer head. Hmmm, I think I will incorporate pauses in my game as well
I'm posting on twoplustwo because I have always been amazed at the level of talent that populates this site --- it's almost unparalleled on the Internet.

i donno if you ment this as a joke or not but pausing shouldnt be a strategy:D not to mention that the pause gives time for your opponent to think over what to do too.

How could you even consider the possibility that he's joking after checking his country

I think pausing should be banned imo, if he has to leave to do whatever then that's his problem.
Just like a chess game, if you have to go to the bathroom, or something, they don't pause the clock, do they?

I dunno, if he has a very legitimate excuse (i.e. at work and has to pause to take care of customers), then why not? One of my biggest pet peeves is when the doorbell rings or I have to take a phone call or something and my opponent insta unpauses. It's SO rude, and really shows the immature nature of much of this community.

U can call back when the game is over... and if someone is at the door u can tell them to come in or fuck off^^ point is that when u have decided to play a game of starcraft u should finish before doing something else or just quit the game. I cant even begin to tell how annoying it is when ppl pause the game. and they always do so in the worst possible time.
