Q: What is this thread?
A: General purpose, SC2 discussion thread.
Q: What should I be posting about?
A: Basically, anything you want to talk about but aren't sure if it warrants a topic of its own. Heard a rumour you want to share? A new video? A question you are sure is super common but can't find the answer to via searching? A brilliant new idea that you want to vet, to make sure it's really as brilliant as you think it is?
This is the place.
Note:
Posting standards will not be as high as if you were to make a new thread, but pointless spam will still not be tolerated. I have seen threads like these work out alright on other sites (for other games) so I figured, why not give it a shot? It's possible there's not really enough content for something like this to exist at this point in time, but no harm then, it will just die on its own.

It's his hipster style, he always has a new look to him everytime you see him play. That in addition to his awesome skills. Also, he's Swedish, we strangely have an mystic touch to us. I mean, where else in the world do you most likely have to fight off a polar bear to get to school?
Just making sure, is it standard to praise Jinro with the opening post for every new General Discussion? I've been seeing this trend a lot lately, just wanna make sure

Just accidentally found this picture while googling something else, and thought it's really funny; sorry if it's very old and everyone has seen it, but maybe someone would appreciate it:

Smiling guy is Doa, crying guy with message is Morrow, and I think behind him is Sen, crying too.

Man, last night...they tried to gang me, I'm lucky I had all the eight shotgun bullets in my pocket and my shotgun which i was taking with me to school just in case of something awful would happen!

How is Jinro's ear healing up? Is that relevant discussion in this thread?

Well Millenium Feast got further than any forgeiner could have hoped to at IEM WC. Is this a sign that forgeiners may actually be able to go head to head against Koreans?

I feel like Koreans don't have as many advantages in SC2 as they did in Broodwar. Starcraft 2 is insanely popular right now world wide, and the real difference between Koreans and Foreigners are work ethic and environment. I expect big things from foreign players this year, watching some of the streams look @ Incontroll for example, he has not had great showings with MLG last year, but with the way his ladder and practice games have been going I see hope for him. Stephano is arguably the best SC2 player on earth right now, we have people like Feast (who I did not and still don't know a whole lot about) taking things deep. Maybe this will be the year people lace the boots up and level out the playing field...

If I only play 4 placement matches (out of 5, for example) and the next season hits, does my placement matches/MMR reset or would it save my MMR/placement matches and keep me at 1 placement match?
This is assuming only one season (I know 2 seasons always reset your MMR/placement matches).

does anyone know if a certain percent of prize money a player earns goes to team? like if MVP wins a tournament, does all 50k go to IM or does he keep the whole 50k?

I stopped following SC for a while during the December hols, so I kinda missed a lot of the new maps that came around, like Daybreak and Calm before the Storm.
Just wanted to ask, but why does Zerg suck so much on Calm of the Storm? It seems like fairly standard map, so I'm not really sure why people say that Protoss has a gigantic advantage on this map.

I am 99% certain that it will count as you not having recieved a ranking, thus your MMR will not be saved and you will have to do 5 placement matches.
