Here is the replay
http://www.sc2replayed.com/replays/160659-1v1-terran-protoss-metalopolis
-or-
http://www.mediafire.com/?mnsbc7kj95ygikh

General early game info:
Metalopolis Close Positions
Terran
1Rax FE
3Rax reactor port
Marauder/medivac/upgrades
Take 3rd base

Protoss
3Gate pressure expand
5Gate Robo
Colossus/Gateway mix
3rd base denied

Was the Protoss in the right to complain about the Terran winning?
Please don't vote until you watch the replay, but the gist of what happened is that it was a pretty close game, and then he started to lag and said that I should leave the game because I don't deserve the win. After the game he continued to PM me while I was watching the replay, and when I told him to go watch the replay he put me on ignore, and then continue to PM me...

I'll admit that I was not in the best position to win the game, but I was fairly calm and comfortable with my position and pretty optimistic about winning. Here is what I was thinking at that point in the game:
Economy
He never got a 3rd base up and running, so at this point he is 100% all-in, right now or he loses.
His natural expansion has ~500 minerals left in it, and mine has ~8k minerals left being mined by 30+ scvs (not to mention 2 OCs for muling, 3 mules just landed as he left

Army
He has ~12stalkers and ~2colossus ~5zealots, and if he waits for his probes to mine out his natural he can get 4-5 more gateway units or 1 colossus (long build time even chronoboosted, and time is a big issue here for him)
I have 12 marauders with more on the way out of 6 barracks, 3 vikings and more on the way out of 2 starports (1reactored) and 8 medivacs

Positioning
My army is together in my base with the exception of a medivac about to drop 4 marauders in his main/snipe any expansion he tries to put up, another reason he must all in me now, or lose later.
My structures are going to be pumping reinforcements directly to my defensive position at my natural.
His army is spread out across the map, which will allow me time to reinforce my army.
He has no proxy pylon, and about to have ZERO income anyway...

Upgrades
He has 1/1 ups... vs my 3/2 ups

So, watch the replay, consider what I've posted, and vote and please give some feedback about how you think the game would have turned out. Personally I felt his comments were pretty arrogant. I mean look at the post game graph, just looking at the graph would you say either player was in an advantage?
[image loading]

Also, I'd gladly take some constructive criticisms about my play, it was a pretty sloppy game, but I had a plan to get a 3rd and keep him on 2 bases and I think it worked out alright, so if you have some suggestions I'll take em. But if you're just going to be rude about how bad I am, keep it to yourself please.

A Protoss complaining about the Terran winning? Well first off, go watch the results from MLG Dallas, and i'm guessing he is not past 3k masters, just me.

I can't download the replay by the way.

who cares, it was a ladder game.

if you lag out, you get the loss. no big deal, ignore it and move on. it happens, and its not like money was on the line or anything.

Did you even read the post? The protoss was complaining about lag.

Can you guys just shut up and watch the replay? If you can't download the replay, then just say so (and shut up).

Stop being so actively counterproductive.

I feel like telling people to shut up in your thread is on the best way to convince others to watch the replay...just sayin.

idk, I see a lot of voting and very few comments suggesting they have actually watched the replay. I've already accepted that the poll isn't going to be accurate, but people tend to read threads that have pictures, replays, and polls... so why not.

Ah, my fault. I apologize.

I did just watch the replay though and I am sorry to say that toss had the upper hand at the end. While his natural was running low his army composition was much stronger than yours. Even though he was about to run out of money I can almost assure you he was about to attack your front which would've ended the game right away. You had 11 marauders 4 of which were on the other side of the map, 2 more marauders and a viking in production.

The colossus, zealots, and stalkers would've cleaned up the marauders in no time so the vikings wouldn't even have been able to kill one colossus. If you pulled all your scvs you may have barely held, but then ironically he would have more income than you.

Sorry but I'm going to have to go with toss.

EDIT: Just looked at the upgrade situation and the battle may have been closer than I thought, but I still think the colossus would've cleaned up nicely.
2nd EDIT (lol): he had a colossus and enough resources to warp in 5 or so more units.
