The fact that people take the time to screen shot, upload, and post to this thread is more telling than all the BM being posted. This thread is like a giant e-peen stroking zone.
So you win and someone is mad. My bet is more often than not they're legitimately pissed off that they lost to some sort of lame play. The game isn't balanced, there is racial imbalance at the highest levels, and some of the cheese in this game is off-the-wall harder to defend than execute.
I don't condone BM, I think it's absurd, but come on, this thread is just as silly.

the problem is this thread would be good if it was saved for truly special and unique bad manner and comments. "you suck" or "protoos is op" just isn't funny, awesome or confusing though.
oh and yeah likes lobbers PvZ 1 base build. still have a 100% win ratio with that, I apologise anytime I ever end up using it it's that bad. you stay on 1 base for so long you'd think you wouldn't have the economy for such a scary push but nope. I think it may have something to do with slower resource collection rate than bw meaning the timing window where you have better economy but your army is only catching up is way larger.

It takes 5 minutes to share a screenshot, it's not hard. You probably spent 5 minutes writing that dull, boring post!
The fact is, some people go off the hook without provocation; or, when they DO go off the hook, what is written is completely absurd. I've had someone tell me I was a gay homo fucker and that I was a lying cunt because I said "have fun!" at the start of the game.

5 minutes to type that? lol?
If someone calls you a "gay homo fucker" and a "lying cunt" when you say "have fun!" right at the start of the game, you're just being trolled. Posting that sort of nonsense here only feeds the behaviour. It isn't "absurd" or confusing. They're just trolling.
I stand by my belief that a lot of the BM in here is probably due to legitimate frustration to ridiculous strats. For example, as the poster above mentions, the 1 base PvZ immo/sentry/stalker/prism push is so fucking strong it should enrage people at our level of play (master and below).
Either way, you're all welcome to enjoy the thread I suppose. Probably shouldn't have said my piece in the first place.

The other day I was playing a 1v1 with a Zerg. I was playing pretty terribly, but barely won:
Him: F*** YOU! I SHOULD HAVE WON
Me: (I was feeling cheeky) LOLOLOLOLOLOL
Him: TANKS F***ING SAVED YOUR ASS!
Then he left the game.
Obviously the tanks saved my ass, dude... They're tanks... isn't that the point of the game: build a unit that saves your ass?

TBH the only other time I posted in this thread was an example of BM after I had lost the game. And some of the BM in here has been classic. I just think most people have gotten into the habit of posting any BM, awesome or confusing or not. (I'm guilty of that)

I've only ever posted her 2-3 BMs and I can tell you they were legit games. The first one was from a year ago when I was still a noob and I was into one basing as Terran since I didn't feel safe enough against Protoss to take an expansion. My Protoss opponent got pissed after I nuked his army and rolled him. He said he couldn't find the dot which is a legit excuse but he should've at least moved his army and probes out of position since those 2 are the most targetted areas for nukes(where army is or probes are mining). No need to BM me though lol.
Second game was a ZvsT on Antiga. I went slings+banes+infestors and FG'd his army like twice then just ran it over losing most of my units(no infestors lost though). He had the tower right above my 4th, kept his units clumped up and he never even scanned or sent a marine or two to do a quick scout incase of flanks. He should've at least sieged his tanks at the tower and taken out my 4th from safety then retreated or spread out but he didn't and he lost because of it. I was on 3 bases getting a 4th which was a gold to his two bases.
Yes, I know you said more often than not but there is no one way to play the game so if someone wins by a lame strat, it's still a win. I've had games where I told my worker to scout my base but did it by a moving instead of just move so it missed where the pylon was placed(followed opponent worker) and I lost the game as a result. I was disappointed but my fault. Yes, some people have posted screenshots of them being BM first but that's not the purpose of this thread

I've started to block people as soon as I've said glhf. Seems kind of rude, but don't want anyone to ruin the game for me. Anyone else do this?

I haven't done it in sc2 yet, but I used to do it in dota/HoN. No, I didn't block my opponents, I blocked my teammates, lol. I'm not listening to how terrible I am because I'm not team fighting 5v5 8 minutes in with phantom lancer.
I guess it just seems too rude in a 1v1 in starcraft.

Uhm... there's gotta be a lot of things that ruin the game for you then. You also deny yourself the pleasures of being praised for your play(rarely the case, I admit) and it's kinda difficult to make friends or interesting new contacts when they're on your ignore list...

Yeah maybe you're right. Guess I should at least wait for a offense before blocking.

So today I went on my NA account to have some fun playing random. I'm a platinum zerg on EU, but I'm pretty horrid with my off races and so I am gold on NA. I click the 'Find match' button, get the loading screen: playing against a favored terran on XNC. Alright, start of the game:
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/MAdDe.jpg)
I asked because I've been playing against platinum, but I've lost the last game, so I was hoping my MMR would've dropped a little and I would face a bit weaker opponents (I was hoping this, 'cause I knew my spawn race).
I am apparently the blue guy and I will be playing terran, which is even a lot weaker than my protoss. Ok, probably not going to end well, but might as well try. For your information, I always try to go for longer games, not end it quickly with cheese, because I want to actually get a bit better with every race.
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/91JXU.jpg)
Enter Econwhiz, the red terran in the 1 o'clock position.
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/OQem6.jpg)

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/Uitpn.jpg)
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/6fF1O.jpg)
At this point I'm thinking that he seems unusually chatty, which in my experience tends to mean cheesy play. Also, he hasn't scouted me, which is suspicious when you're playing against random. That's why I sent one of my marines down to have a look in my expo area.
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/FxEUt.jpg)
And so I try to prepare my defenses as good as I know how to (which isn't all that great).
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/4pYH1.jpg)
I expected a faster attack and only marines, so I wasn't prepared for marauders and him researching stim.
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/81UjZ.jpg)
But whatever, it's a learning experience and I don't really mind getting cheesed.
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/rUe9j.jpg)
After the game I see that he is actually platinum, which I sort of expected. His MMR would've been unusually high if he was silver. I watch the replay and want to give him some advice, so we have a conversation. Unfortunately I closed the screen before I thought about taking a screenshot, so I only have the second half. I'll reconstruct the first one:
"You: A bit of advice, you maybe shouldn't be so chatty, because it gives away your cheese
Econwhiz: whatever, noob
You: Yeah ok, just saying
if I would've had any other race, you would've lost, terrans is just my weakest one
Econwhiz: noob
noob
noob
noob
noob
You: Ow, ok, nevermind, you're a ki
d"
(this is how I remembered, seems pretty correct, considering how that last line actually went:
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/y4fUY.jpg) (Enhanced contrast in update for readability)
The end.
P.S.: I was getting annoyed with him ignoring the gl hf, lying about his league and calling me noob. And so I said I would've won with my other races, which could be seen as BM by me, but I would argue he definitely started it. And yeah, I BM'd worse towards the end of it, but only in response to him. I tried to be friendly and polite all match and at first in the conversation too, so I feel like it should be understandable that I got irritated. Sorry if it violates the rules of the thread. At least it's a loss being posted for the whiners up top.

No... I think you pretty much started that BM. No need to try to "give him advice".

the old "l2p" "has left the game" 1 2
|
This just happened in a tvt there on bronze EU, I used thorzaine's tvt build against this guy who did 1/1/1 banshee opening after a hellion runbuy. and when i macroed my way to victory he said this
+ Show Spoiler +
Apparently he dosen't know how to spell scrub either. lololol :D. Also when i glhf'd him the guy told me he's was BM
And not to mention, he's calling me, a bronze player who can macro (look at the harvesters like), one of the few bronzeies who can macro, a scrub? Dose anyone else find that Hilarious?!?!?

I was debating on putting this here at all but I was playing a monobattle a few months ago and I got an odd comment at the end of this game. Basically, I was going reapers and two of my teammates left immediately after one guy desync'd, leaving me all alone. This definitely errs on the side of confusing, or maybe just confusing period...It's not even really bm, just confusing.
+ Show Spoiler +other team guy 1: wtf
other team guy 2: gg
other team guy 3: we win
me: wow people suck, hard (meaning my team was super lame)
other team guy 3: buncha punks over there
other team guy 2: yeah, especially your team
other team guy 3: punkathon 2k11
at this point I arrive in their base with 5 reapers, at about the 2.5 minute mark.
other team guy 3: wtf they are a grand master team
other team guy 4: only 1 guy lol
other team guy 3: only 1 guy with 10,000 reapers
other team guy 3: you lost wolfy, give it up
other team guy 1: gg
me: gg
other team guy 3: nt wolf but this wouldnt fly in GSL where i come from
other team guy 3: scrub tactics
other team guy 3: you'd be the laughing stock of the world
at this point he leaves the game...
o.O
