He was really strong though, and a random user, so I think he was lying. Seems weird to deny being the real David Kim (Dayvie) but still play under that name. | ||

You would be surprised what people have done, are doing and are willing to do for a little fame. Or maybe someone just has the same nickname as he, could happen. | ||

It's best to provide the perception of neutrality. | ||

I'm sure even without David Kim using it there would be several people with that psuedonymn on battlenet, purely through coincedence. | ||

You can see here, and here that he ended the beta with 54-30 record, 704 points, top 20 on the NA server. But of course with the current identifier system, noone could know if it was the real David Kim :D | ||

CowGoMoo is not Perfectionistemblem. That was Oversky... CowGoMoo is CowGoMoo on TL, Oversky/Perfectionistemblem is InReach on TL. | ||

(And I'm certainly not going to play casually) I'm absolutely in love with mapping right now and am going to be putting in 100 hours a week indefinitely. Pretty much all I do is workout everyday, play tennis 3-4 times/week and work in Galaxy. I have a few micro maps planned out that I'm going to crank out after TMA before moving onto more ambitious projects so I'll definitely be around. Thanks for the support. | ||

I think 10+ years of it may be enough. I am going to remake it in the starcraft 2 editor though (PERSONAL PROJECT ONLY*).. stay tuned. I've been waiting for SC2 to come out officially before I start playing again. I'll be playing after launch next tuesday. Cya there! | ||

CowGoMoo produces vast quantities of dairy products, and supplies most of the western United States. (Also pretty good at SC2). | ||

Wow never knew there're still people playing this game actively.. :o I'd imagine playing WC2 is like playing SC1's PvP with less units on a tiny, no high ground map? | ||

I think someone mentioned this earlier though I can't find the original post. | ||
