I thought it'd be kinda funny to hear some of your guys' silly blunders in beta.
One of mine was on Metaopolis and I was playing terran, my opponent also being terran. I assaulted his natural and I had all my unit producing building's way points set at his natural to keep up the aggression, while, naturally, producing SCV's. After taking out my adversary's natural I was held up outside his base. Keep in mind this was a good 2 minute battle before I succeeded. I noticed my mineral income was horrendous for the time that had passed and how many SCV's I should have had mining. I then noticed 2-3 SCV's running up my opponent's ramp and getting obliterated, also realizing I had set my CC way point to his base. Idk, in-game i found it hilarious but now that i read this, its not as silly as I thought, hehe.
So, can any one top me? Lets hear em ^_^

That has also happened to me...playing 1v1s and accidentally sending my workers to the other base. I blame the fact that I'm a zerg player and there are two rallying points...so many wasted workers = so many wasted minerals.
Another one was that I went mass void rays for the hell of it on 2v2 twilight council (while my partner did nothing). Anyways long story short, my 20 vrays met 50 hydras at the opponent's base. I'm pretty sure you know who won...

One thing I kept doing was making a reactor when I wanted a tech lab and vice versa. The shortkeys are right next to eachother, x and c =/
|
Oh and I forgot...made a planetary fortress and expected it to liftoff....yeah big oops...
|
I tend to forget if I built my first overlord or not and accidently build 2, a lot. Cancelling the second one always fucks my larvae count up  .

I was playing on my friend's copper account (I'm a diamond player), and it was blistering sands. The match up was TvT. Right after the game started, I lifted my CC and sent it over to his natural. After it landed, I finally made my first SCV and started mining. I had built 1 rax, 1 fact, and did a push with marines and two tanks (LOL @ him not leaving his base at all.)
By the time I was pushing, I tried to go up his narrow ramp, but noticed that he was about to push at the same time. Noticing the similar numbers, I happily pushed and thought I was going to win the fight.
But I forgot to research Siege.
In the end, I lost the game (narrowly), but I cursed at myself because that would have been an EPIC win with the siege.
EDIT: the reason I lost the game was because once he won the initial fight, he had one tank (looow hp) and like two marines left. He had siege, and plopped his tank and started owning me. Remember, I was at his natural so it's pretty damn easy to get me like that.

I killed my ally's dropships full of tanks and units. I was wondering they the nearby units weren't attacking me...
|
At one point I thought it would be fun to mess around in the build order tester and try to get some ghosts for some 1 basing antics. Did a pretty standard opening, 10 depot 12 rax 13 gas adding raxes at necessary. When I got to 150 gas I was like "oh great, now I can throw down my Ghost Academy! Woah, why do I have so much gas left over? Doesn't it cost 150 gas?"
"NO," I thought, "it must only cost 100 gas!!!" -_-
Now I can barely stand to make ghosts because every time I'm reminded of those weeks I spent thinking it cost 100 gas.

I've accidentally built my tech labs and reactors in positioning so that neither of them can have buildings attached to them by accident 
|
I scouted a 6 rax reaper on metalopolis as Protoss and proceeded to forget my second pylon. Noticed it ~ 5-10 seconds after, then sent a probe to build it with what i thought was a que command back to the minerals, and then went back to my scouting probe in his base. It wasn't a que command. Yikes.
|
playing zerg, scouted banshees, and thought overlords still revealed invis units
met a nasty surprise
|
Well, I hit P for probe and pylon for like 2 weeks of beta, and I was hotkeying my nexus to 0
|
After a long week of finishing my exams, getting barely no sleep at all, I finally get the time to relax and play some SC2. I decided to play a 1V1 match as random, and when the match started I spammed 'S' and 'D' like I usually do to make drones, but nothing. I go on for about 2 minutes confused and explaining to my opponent how my game is glitched. It took me a while to realize that I was protoss and taking it as a sign I GG'd and went to bed early.
|
Each time I play Protoss, I forget to research Psi Storm.
|
I got nydus wormed in my main...killed off the rush and went to counter...but forgot to kill the nydus network. So he just sent another wave and killed all my probes and nexus...I nerd raged and quit. :/

I switched from Protoss to Random and for awhile I had a tendency to scan my mineral line rather than MULE it (mixing up hot keys)
|
TvT on metalopolis. Guy did a drop behind the smoke with 2 med vacs and some rine/rauders. I got caught a little outta position as I just moved out to secure my expo. A little while later, I pushed out all the way to his base and then saw two med vacs in my base and gg'd. Turned out they were empty and just forgotten about from the first drop =\
|
i base traded with a terran who barely managed to escape with one rax lifted in the corner. i had probes spread out all over the map along with 8 in a warp prism, but neglected to make another building while chasing his barracks..sigh. i think the supply count was like 80 to 15 in my favor too haha
|
I've rallied my workers to gas during mid game and didnt find it for awhile -_-
|
I assumed for the longest amount of time that Cyber Core still required 200 minerals. I was always puzzled to find out why I had so much spare minerals even after plopping down the Core.
