I'm trying to find a video clip where Idra coins the term "Artosis Pylon" during the NASL Season 1, Week 5, Cruncher vs. Ensare game. I don't hold a subscription to NASL (yet) and I was just wanting to see this snippet, not really the whole video. Does this exist anywhere? Thanks in advance! ^^ | ||

He doesnt even bother with the game anymore and just rides the wave of artosis's influence since he still actively takes part in all aspects of the game. His commentating is going in the trash too. | ||

(http://www.gomtv.net/2010gslopens1/vod/1136) As far as Starcraft documentaries go- I'd like to see one actually finish instead of just sucking up community money, regardless of who it's about. | ||

What's better than a blue flame hellion? A blue flame DeLorean! If there's anyone who's good at drawing, I'd love to see that! | ||

Any feedback is greatly appreciated! As the video description says, it's obviously nothing genius or groundbreaking but it is kinda neat (which is why I'm not making a new thread for it but posting here instead). I know my voice sucks, it's partly due to the crappy headset microphone I use. I have a much better set-up but no mic stand... -.- | ||

The reason I ask is when I play with sc2 windowed mode I can't move the game image in the direction my second screen is unless i go slow. Is the problem that if you move your mouse toward the second monitor then the mouse ignores SC2's boundaries and will actually go onto the second monitor instead? That happens to me sometimes. To fix it I recommend playing in windowed full screen and just alt tabbing out and then back into the game. I've gotten this method to work while playing in true full screen but it's more inconsistent. | ||

I would suggest you make an entirely new thread for this in the strategy section, because I think it would help a lot more people if you did that. | ||

It's about the shift-click returning part. If you just shift-right click back to minerals you make your building SCVs return to minerals and not be idle after they did their job but you'll also screw up your mineral line as displayed in the video. My method presents a nice and easy way to always have all your SCVs that are building the number of structures return to minerals reliably without the risk of messing up your economy by sending all your other, uninvolved, workers to a single mineral patch. Okay I understand now. Definitely a efficient method, gj  | ||

Instead of doing
for each rax you can actually just do

I did some research and found some help on this that says "Now this is the most important step of the install: Remember to choose a different folder to install Starcraft 2. I named my new folder "Starcraft TW" instead of "Starcraft II". After that click the bottom right icon to continue. If you forget to do this step the starcraft installation will overwrite your existing starcraft directory and corrupt your SEA/NA/EU installation. So CHANGE the installation folder!!!" and so I changed the folder but I still get an error message http://i.imgur.com/riTc8.jpg It says That the said file exists and that the contents of the file will be deleted. Has anyone encountered this problem? | ||

Absolutely, although there are subtle differences between the two methods of placing the buildings you describe. bb click bb click bb click makes the SCVs move to put down the buildings immediately while the shift bb click click click method queues the construction up and there will be a 1-3 second delay before an SCV actually starts moving to make the building as their first action in their queue will still be to finish gathering or returning resources. Second, with bb click bb click bb click you can, much more easily, make different building types. Imagine you are playing TvZ, you were busy microing a marine-tank based push away from home and your money shot up to 1.2k minerals. In that situation you want to add a couple rax maybe, a second factory, two gases at your natural, a starport, two e-bays and two or three depots. So you box your workers at the nearest base and go bb click vf click br click br click vs click be click be click and so on. The shift bb click click click method uses a lot less actions of course but in a real game scenario like the one I mentioned above it's a lot less elegant. It is better if you really want to add a sh*tton of buildings of the same type (like 10 rax for example) - so it's more effective -, but in an actual game it's much more likely that you want to make a lot of different buildings at the same time and for that I still very much prefer bb click bb click bb click - which is more flexible. | ||
