Don't post in this thread to say "gay gamers are like everyone else, why do they have a special thread?" It is something that has been posted numerous times, and this isn't the place for that discussion.
For regular posters, don't quote the trolls. |

Lets practice together and get masters!  , I am currently just diamond (on NA anyway, I am a lowly gold on SEA... sigh...) And on top of that, there are heaps of masters in GTL for us to learn from :D
Edit:
I am not sure if breaking into masters within this season can be done given the short length of the new seasons though =/

Well, the job is partly to blame but the part I leave out is the fact that I really don't take losses well so it's hard to learn from them. I also don't spam...at all. I wonder if that's why my effective apm is so low or whether I'm not good enough for it to make a difference anyway.
@TWThoth
There are never any diamond/master level Zerg in the channel for coaching! I've made it very clear that I'd like coaching in exchange for sexual favors (lolgchat Starcraft edition!).
Although if the diamond players are willing to beat up on me while I improve that'd probably be just as helpful. There's actually a stream I watch every day and the guy offers coaching for like $5 an hour and I'll probably take him up on it with my vacation this week. (The guy's name is Polylol and he's on Twitch, he's like top 5 master Zerg you should all watch him because he's hilarious and incredibly helpful/friendly).

Ok, ty for your responses!
One more thing i would like to know from you guys, is that when i say, that tis good that gay people do parades and stuff, since the discrimination is obvous, and proven with every single reasearch. Then she says that fat people get discriminated etc too. Is it correct to say, that fat person has the same rights as hetero, then gay people dont (as in gay marriage)?
Also the point that gay people (also coloured people) die because of their looks/sexual orientations thro violence, is really good point too.
Started to think, thats its not even true, that heteros dont scream how they are heteros. It seems they do that ALL the time, whole media etc is built upon the hetero sexuality (all the sexy videos, talking about how nice of a girls ass is etc). It is just so normal in society that people dosent seem to think about it.
Your toughts?

We can still practice ^_^, and I am sure practice matches would be a better teacher for you than regular ladder.
As for coaching... well, I could ask Dogsi if he would coach you xD
Edit:
about the apm spamming, it makes no difference to be honest, there are bigger things to improve upon than APM (an example would be good positioning/posturing of the army, macro in general etc)

I agree. And when I do try spamming I always end up doing damage to myself like accidentally stopping all my drones or god forbid a-clicking one of them.
I know my mechanics still need improvement but I think I'm to the point where I would actually benefit quite a bit from actual builds and real timings. I don't think just hitting my injects better is going to carry me much further.
If you're on tonight we'll play some games...although my evening may be way late for you. 7pm central is the dead of night for Europe isn't it?
EDIT: Oh sheesh yall! You're not Netherlands you're basically Australia! 7pm for me is like...10am for you.

Actually, currently its 4 am here, I am an insomniac , I am currently on right now, and I wouldn't mind a game, although I don't know if I will be able to make 10 am (probably be asleep xD)
Also, I never spam, I don't find it all that productive, and on that note, hitting injects is everything

I'm at work right now and my work computer isn't powerful enough to run Starcraft 2. I could actually totally get away with playing it because I have a pretty private cubicle and I haven't been here long enough for them to fill up my time with ACTUAL work.
But alas this stupid thing is practically a netbook it's so week. It took me 30 minutes to install Windows updates this morning (although that might be because they run it through an abortion of a 3rd party program.)

Don't push yourself too hard man. I'm taking vacation on thursday and friday this week and I have monday off for Christmas so if we need to wait till late this week we can. And then we can pull all sorts of crazy odd hours.

I wouldn't be pushing myself, my insomnia was my own fault to begin with, now I have to deal with it xD
I will be fine, I assure you, if I am not online though, assume that I am in fact in a sleep-depravity induced coma xD.

They were having a sale but I honestly don't know how to rig it to be on a different server. There's a step by step guide on the front page on how to get on the KR server, I imagine you could just sub in NA for all the steps and end up on the NA server.

I have an account for NA and EU, and I use two different clients. >.>

What I really want is to use the EU client on the NA server. Starcraft in German is so badass.

NA account went back to full price sadly, at least last I looked. @Klondike and @TWThoth can I practice with you? I'm diamond level zerg and protoss!

You certainly may! We'll all need to take breaks so we can trade off practice partners and it would probably help us to observe some games anyway.
