Sorry, mate, i've checked all replays you uploaded and should say there are no your "wins", that are your opponents "loses". And to my mind, games are barely gold.
Do you mind explaining to me why you do not think my games are barely above Gold?
That's enough hard and really mass text to type but first, look at your foe's apm, almost all games it's far not close to, say, 100. I do believe you in diamond and all those guys are too, but could you show here the game where you faced up to player with at least 120 avg apm and game duration would not be as 10 minutes. Cheers!
are you seriously correlating skill level to apm.
To discuss the following subject you should: 1) watch all replays he has submitted 2) read carefully what i wrote in the first sentence And at least you will see that it's the most simple and relative factor to use for player skill and game feeling. P.s. And again, i don't say apm is the only option to analyze!
Just so you know, there were plenty of 120 APM B- and above in SC1. There were also plenty of +300 APM D players

I never met any 300+ apm d players low apm player existed in sc1, but were much less common than 200+ apm b- players. sc2 this is less of a factor as you can get away with much less apm (mbs, mass unit select, etc) this has already been discussed to death in other threads anyways
Someone watch and reply please and leave a comment on what i could improve in my gameplay.
Hard to win with 20apm. You had no micro in battles, your macro was lacking too. You should practice this to get better at it. Strategy then. If you're gonna VR rush, either do it very fast, or if you do it lateron, bring a bunch of them, not just one. Could have overwhelmed him with 3 VRs seeing as how many trouble he had with just the one. Oh and expand.. he wasn't going mass lings so you can expand rather fast. Brood lords are a joke if you have a bunch of blink stalkers. Just blink underneath them and shoot them down. Your BO is also weird. Your third building is a forge, that's such a waste.
my first league game ever , while at the bottom of silver league. well i wouldnt post such low league/standing game but it was pretty wierd , and even after 15 min of game i'm still literally rolling on the floor laughing. So decided to post , pretty quick game anyway. first game ever against a platinum league player , base race , roach kiting etc.... ( oh by the way , thanks for a platinum opponent for my first game battle.net )
Heya, i won 5 placement matches and i got placed in the gold league. I thought that 5/5 gave you a guaranteed spot in platinum, at least thats how it worked in phase one.
Not that it matters, i was just curious if this is normal or not.
ROFL at that idra vs masq game. At the start of the game the atmosphere was so very friendly. Of course I know better than that and I was just waiting until the end for the punch line. I was not disappointed.
Guy's I'm having trouble loading my replays. I took out the base whatever folder to revert it back to patch 19 but I get an "unable to load maps" message whether I try playing the replays on patch 19 or patch 20. I'm trying to watch the dimaga vs white ra games that were played last week.
What's the deal with those infested marines? I've never seen someone commit to using them like that before. It seems like NP would've won him those battles.
Game starts with a lot of extreme cheese from both sides: both base-trading and pylon/photon ramp contain included! What follows is a 40 min game back and forth with lots of hand-shaking moments and near-GG situations.
Game starts rather normal but without any early push on the Zerg's FE. Next there is a bit of phoenix harass to annoy the zerg and keep him contained. What follows is an EXTREME Mexican standoff without the standoff part. Two armies separated by a distance of no more than one screen dishing it out for 30 minutes straight. Hydras, Roach, Zerglings, Ultralisks, Banelings vs. mass Gateway units and yes.. CARPET STORMING! 200/200 battles, maxed out upgrades, attempts at sneaky expo harass, flanking, a single expansion left on the map, and much more.
IMO, a great game and definitely one of my better ones.
Personally, I recommend both games - Game 1 is fun because of the cheese and the ridiculous battles. Game 2 is a joy for the eye with the carpet storming and the hundreds of zerg and protoss lives that were lost in its making.

I had the same thing, I won all my games, the last one was even vs a platinum guy, and it put me in gold. Does it look at other things besides how many games you win, like game time and game score (and apm?) or stuff like that?

he forgot to upgrade it obviously i didnt like the game much because he was chillin with 5 infestors till full energy but no upgrade T_T bad game as a result
Anyone else unable to load up the Masq replays from a few pages back? Everytime I try to load them, it first states that it is an older patch, so after hitting yes to revert all I end up with is a black screen and the blue ingame pointer. The only way to get out of that is to alt-f4. Totally strange
i cant get the replays to work. I put them in the correct folder even right next to my other ones. Then if i double click it to watch it loads to black screen. If i log into Bnet the replays arent in the folder but all the ones that i saw in my folder are. just not the downloaded ones. what am i doing wrong?
