To add an entry, reply to this thread. To modify an entry, edit your post. Do not post again. Only one entry per post. It is fine to make more than one post for you are "Team" interest in addition to Casual or Competitive. If you have more then one account, post more then once in the thread.
IMPORTANT!!!! Your post must match EXACTLY with format listed below. Please copy and past the below exactly in your post, and fill in your entries as needed. Consult the example post for valid entries. Anybodies post who is not valid will not be sorted by the script. If you mess up, please don't post again; edit your post until it is correct. The thread will be updated about once every three days. Thank you.
This thread will be purged at the beginning of each ladder season. If you want to participate for that season, you will have to post in the practice partners thread again.
A note on bnet profile urls and sc2ranks url: At the moment your sc2rank and battlenet profile will list your stats for SC2 WOL and not for HOTS. The script used to run this thread doesn't know the difference. They are still required, even though they don't mean anything, in order to be properly sorted by the software.
HOW TO POST IN THIS THREAD
Important, these entries must be filled in exactly as listed here. Each "field" must have a valid entry. If something is wrong in your post, like the spacing is wrong or something is capitalized strangely, the script will not sort you. So copy and past the template below and fill in your information. Last season, more than half of all people where never properly added to the thread, because their post wasn't formatted exactly right. So please, copy and paste the template exactly. Spelling matters! If you don't capitalize something that should be, or capitalize something that shouldn't be, that matters to!
Examples of things not to do. EVERYONE READ THIS:
casual/competitive is invalid. Pick ONE interest and spell it correctly.
Its AM server, not NA server.
mid gold is not a league. You are Gold. High Masters is not a league. You are Masters.Or whatever applies to you. If you haven't played the placement match, you are Bronze. So many people mess this up.
You have to include every line. Don't leave anything out. Don't mix up the order either. USE THE TEMPLATE!
YOUR POST MAY BE DELETED IF...you type up your post in an office program, or using a different font or something else, and then copy and paste it. Its technical stuff that has to do with the way the script reads characters. Please type your post in the post box and don't put any images or fonts in it. If your post trips up the script, I will have to ask a mod to edit or delete it for the good of the thread.
Look at the error log at the bottom of the thread. If your post isn't sorted, the error log will give you an idea of why. “Too few lines for all headers to be present” means you left something out. If your post has characters the script can't process (like you typed in word and copy and pasted it in, for example) it will generate an “other” error. Retype it in the TL post box.
If something is wrong with your post, edit your post. If you edit your post to the correct format, it will be sorted next time. If you need to change something in your post, edit your post. DO NOT POST MORE THAN ONCE IN THIS THREAD!!!!.
Despite my best efforts, about half of all of you will not post correctly and will not be sorted. That sucks. Read the thread, follow the format, and try and copy other users that got it right. Check back every once in a while after you post to make sure your post gets added. Remember to check the error log as well.

Anyway, I'm looking for any race, and if I find a dedicated practice partner (it would be great if they were willing to talk on Skype) of any race willing, I feel like I could really get competitive...finding someone to play with is the only hurdle to jump.Last edit: 2013-01-31 12:04:52

[people who helped TossFloss] Much thanks goes to apm66, GMarshal, NiGhT_mArE, Raydog and starcraft911 for their awesome improvement suggestions.
Much thanks to Blazinghand for his practice partners thread as well. The format of this post was 90% ripped off from him. A huge thanks to josep. He wrote the amazing script that is used to run this thread.
The TL practice partner thread now has an official battle net channel. If you want to find someone to practice with, you may join the TLPractice channel on battlenet. To do this, log on to battle net, go to the practice channel tab, and type in TLPractice. If TLPractice is full, join TLPractice1, TLPractice2...ect.
