 )I know I do. It's a very unique relationship between spectators and sport, and it's a great, great thing that things like this can come from it. And as much as I might disagree with Blizzard's desire to have the pro tournaments come up with their own map pool, the fact that they're still putting so much faith in the hands of others is almost unbelievable. This victory does not belong to one fan, but to all. Let us together build this industry that we may enjoy in times of boredom.

Good job to TL for their contribution to E-sports. Also... I just read that old school BW APM's were around 200-220? I'm guessing that once people found out that there was a way to measure APM is when it became popular to spam your APM up. + Show Spoiler + IT'S A TARP!!! | ||

But man, I remember when I was first getting back into BW a few years ago, I had NO idea what APM was at all. It just confused the hell out of me. Then I remember assuming mine was close to 200 before I started analyzing my reps with BW-Chart, only to later find out I was playing at barely 100 max. At my peak, I was pulling around 200, though :o I have no idea what my APM is in SC2, though. Is there a way to check your overall APM in a rep without actually playing it? | ||

TL community has really worked hard to make gaming better and Blizzard is finally putting in their own two cents as well. | ||

Yes, there is: search the forum for sc2gears. Really nice tool, you can even see how your APM improves over time. I was around 40 when sc2 got released (didn't play beta nor did i play SC:BW the last 8-9 years) and sc2gears shows that my APM increased gradually to 90. It's really good to see if you are improving or not. | ||

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA On all seriousness, I didn't know APM was from foreign community and is amazed. I guess thanks is in order for JCA and rest of BWChart creators since he has coined an valuable term that contributed to the e-sports. | ||
