I don't know man ClouD's blogs are pretty funny... So from that standpoint he has the edge on both IdrA and avilo. In terms of relevance right now he's about the same as IdrA.

rusedeguerre (ruse of war? lol) is better than his usual run of alt names. maybe that's why. or maybe they're just messing with his head, "oh man this account isn't being picked up on, woohoo!...." [1 week later] "those grudge-holding crusaders against me, they bant it!"

AnomalySC2 was just temp banned for 1 week by MoonBear.
That account was created on 2012-08-22 01:31:59 and had 1067 posts.
Reason: Has it really been only just over a week since I last banned you? And in the mean time you even picked up a ban from Waxangel.
Let's have an honest heart-to-heart here. Your posts are bad. Also, if you're really suffering from depression then you need professional help and this isn't something we are qualified to give on TeamLiquid. Take a step back. Relax. Reflect. And when you're feeling better and can post better, then come back.
It seems the Blizzard Balance Department got in touch with TL to further ruin the poor mans life. How far will they go to harass an innocent man?

The idea is that the glasshouse engine simulates down to the individual sim level and perpetrates that simulation across the entire region for all players. This doesn't work if you take it offline and this is the experience the team wants you to have.
A big comment about city size. I don't know how many of you have actually pushed the limitations of your box, but run something like fraps or another FPS counter when the engine starts pushing 400k or so. The game would simply not function at 4k x 4k sizes given current computing power on 90% of the players. When Ocean talks about future possibilities, they're not planning on simply ignoring the need for variety in city sizes, region templates, etc... they made decisions to function within the current PC environment. Crysis 3 can push your GPU, but SimCity will punish the CPU.
So yes, all these things came from the initial decision on what type of game they wanted to make and all of this information is publicly available already. The comments about DRM and fuck EA and Origin are all really outside of the scope of the game of SimCity. I realize they affect you as a consumer of a product, but I've got news for you.. the industry is moving towards analytic representation of all kinds of player statistics to help them drive revenue in future games. Every part of the industry is telling them that profits exist if you can monitor consumer trends and deliver goods to please that want. No where is that easier than via a computer. You should listen to Gabe Newell talk about economics of the industry sometime if you think it is just "EA being EA." This is a HUGE problem. An example, Blizzard has been doing this ever since WoW. They absolutely monitor top level players in, say SC2, and the balance team even plays with and against them on the ladder. They can even watch everything you do on your screen as you play SC2, basically like you're streaming directly to them. I don't even need to bring up how this could potentially be abused to invade your privacy, and lets just say I've experienced this first hand to the extreme. I made some enemies with the sc2 balance team and they have made my life a living hell in return. Point being, this always online thing needs to die for a multitude of reasons. Most importantly it is ruining a lot of games that simply have no business of using such a model. But then there is also the whole abusive invasion of privacy that it can be used for.... How the fuck can the balance team make your life a living hell? Is just a game...they dont know who you are... They do know who I am. How? They trace your IP and hack your ISP? What did they do to make your life a living hell? Extortion? Verbal abuse? You could sue them at domestic terrorist charge if they do anything illegal. They ended up causing a huge depression, as I was without a job because they toyed with my belief that they would let me go pro in sc2. And no, IP is not how they're tracking me, I know how to change it at will. I haven't quite figured out how they're doing it, tbh. I've even used a mac cloner to change my router and nic macs, that hasn't changed anything at all. I've since moved on, but they won't let the beef go.

They stopped letting me vs GMs after I used to be critical of david kim's ability to balance the game, and they only let me vs them instead. I know it's them because of their personality, hotkeys, and ability to hard counter any build order I try. This took place over the course of a year, you come to know the mind games between each other quite well.
lol, this shit just keeps getting better.
oh, this is in the sim city thread btw....completely relevant.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's a troll/PBU, it's pretty damn absurd. Either way it's still pretty funny and shouldn't last long.
It deserves mention that it isn't exactly Blizzard, It's Blizzard's Balance team, lead by David Kim, that crushed his dreams of going pro. And they keep doing it on diferent accounts, PCs and IP adresses.

He seems to be a little paranoid. Reminds me of someone else we used to know, although the focus of his paranoia is elsewhere and even more implausible.

The extreme paranoia and vendetta makes his need to dump on blizzard in every thread make more sense now. I mean he doesn't even try to stay on topic anymore (which fortunately makes it easier to report him lol).

Hmm he posted a link to his stream http://www.twitch.tv/anomalysc2/b/333521308, I guess as some kind of proof, and I have to admit he really is incredibly skilled.....He doesn't lose a single game throughout all of it. His mechanics are around korean GM level it looks like. It does seem a little unlikely but maybe there is something to it? It's not like Blizzard doesn't have the money to do something like that.
