Whenever people like to talk a lot during matches I always suspect cheese. I once had a guy start talking to me asking how I was doing and all that and I was like good, w/e. He had snuck in an scv into my base and was proxy rushing me. I was like damn, gg. So anyways I queue up my next game and it is the same guy. The person must not have realized it because he said the exact same things asking the exact same questions and I was like ok fuck that I know what you are going to do and I stomped him. No gg from him lol.

attempting to win a game with dts, then realizing the templar archives doesn't give you access to dts
|
So this was back toward the end of phase 1 of beta. I made it to low diamond (platinum then) and was in a TvP game on Steppes of War. I was doing really well, made a lot of tanks and some marauders to keep the front lines and about 6-7 vikings for air support. Started pushing into his expo and out pops about 4-5 carriers to mop up my vikings and then destroy me because I had hardly any anti-air. FML.

oops
in my defense the map was beyond retarded...
You won the competition man. How is that even possible hahahaha :D
Double gas-steal on ally is like the most awesome thing ever :D
Edit:
Actually that guy below me has a pretty impressive fml situation, too ^_°

Unable to make corrupters because i hit B S instead of V S while micro'ing down collosus with burrowed roaches. You don't realize for forever because the timing on Spires is about 2 years...

I think I have all of you beat.
At some point during a zvt, I rallied my main hatch to my gas. The spawn location was such that the shadow of the gas geyser laid right over the spot where drones enter the gas, and it obscured them quite well. About 9 minutes into the game I'm wondering why I have no resources, and I'm looking in my base and I see only 12 drones mining, because there are 19 drones queued up right next to the geyser to mine.
The misrally was corrected before I started trying to investigate, so I had no clue. I would double click my drones and see that there were 30 drones there, but I couldn't figure out why I could not see them. I finally had to give a confused gg and did not discover what happened until I watched the replay.

heard a while ago in beta there were programs that would auto chat for you

probe rushing your opponent while he probe rushes you

Desert Oasis. Attacking up one side without scouting down the other. Showing up at each other's base at the same time. Always vs Terran, of course. You'd think I learned my lesson, but it's happened more than once.

I rallied all my workers to gas at one point. Since they just stack up while waiting in line to enter the geyser, it took me forever to realize that there were a bunch of workers waiting there. I kept getting angry that my economy was awful and I had no minerals, but no matter how many times I told it to build more workers, I never gained workers on my minerals.
It was quite embarrassing when I finally realized what was going on, and reassigned my 20-some workers to actually work.

LOL How did that happen!?

I've done that before. What happened to me was that the other guy typed:
[All] Him: gg [All] Him: has left the game!
And that was enough to fool me into surrendering.

2v2 with one of my best RL friends.
"Umm, did they attack my expansion?" "What expansion? The one in the middle?" "Yeah, my nexus was up, but now it's gone." "Oh dude, I saw going up, and I thought it was an enemy's, so I killed it with my voids." "Dude, they're both zerg. We're the only Toss in the game." "Wait... what?"
M.Night. Shyamyalan twist: I'm the second guy. It's my friend's "FML" moment.
Thank you MJ!

Lucky my partner had macrod a shitton of stalkers and collosus. After the DTs we stormed their bases and won. You don't seem to get the whole "FML" concept. It can't end up really good for you in the end.
example: "I bought a $1 burger at mcdonalds and gave the guy $20 and didn't count the change only to later realize he had just given me 4 $1 bills. I used the money to buy 4 lottery tickets to try to make my money back and am now the proud owner of $100 million dollars."
actual example: "I accidentally cancelled my fast CC right before completion instead of just taking the worker off, FML"

i wanted to get my warpgates ASAP and i was chronoboosting it a crapload
then i saw my zealot being built and wanted to cancel it since my warpgates were almost done
so for some reason i canceled my warpgate research which was about to be done instead of my zealot and i literallly screamed FUUUUUUU

whenever im about to win and i get d/c T_T

I thought I won the game because I scouted the cannon rush and destroyed his pylon on scrap station. Never bothered to expand to my expansion nor scout there and turns out he built 23432 cannons on my expansion and expanded himself there getting mass colosseus and pheonix and i lost because i had mass mutas and hydras.
|
Oh man so I have the best one.
I scout and see a forge going up with no wall. Of course, through my mind goes the following:
"Cannon rush and no wall off. I got this." So I even type in the chat "Cannon rush?" Scout around, kill the probe before he builds really anything. I'm feeling awesome at this point. My first 8 speedling run into his base and take out a couple workers, but get shot by somewhere around a billion cannons. "What a fucking noob. I'll tech to broodlords quickly and just smash through his base. This is nothing" I tech to lair, take 2 expansions, including the gold. I'm not even really building an army at this point, just a couple of roaches in the front and a few speedlings at the front of his base. If I need to I can always just power something pretty quickly. With how much he spent on cannons, he can't have much of an army and enough Speedlings should be fine. And I'm still upgrading melee because hey why not I'll have broodlings. "Noob won't know what hit him" Then the void rays attack "Oh. Right. Void Rays"
