Currently logged into USEast in the channel Ambrosia. I may only have until 1 or 2 P.M., depending on if some people decide to demand I spend time with them or not.

If I don't reply right away, it means I have SC in the background or I got up from my computer for a moment.

Edit: Logged in as TwilightPhoenix, by the way.

We had a game today, I came out on top this time.

Replay is attached.

Nice. I'll be on shortly- b.net can't recognize my version for some reason, so I'm re-downloading the patch.
JoshTigerheart
And I had to get off. Before I abandon my computer completely, I'm going to say this. I got owned twice! Sheesh I'm rusty, even if I wasn't that great to begin with. Least I held out forever.

40 minutes is a long time for Blood Bath. At least I didn't attack any of my own buildings by accident this time.

Unfortunately, I couldn't make it because the stupid 11.5.2 update didn't work. It's starting to annoy the heck out of me, and I still haven't gotten it to work. Anybody have any trouble with it?
JoshTigerheart
Try manually downloading the patch from Blizz's website. I had no trouble with it though.

Edit: Oh, by the way, here's the second replay.
adam_0
I just got to thinking, but isn't monday a holiday for something? I'm horrible at remembering holidays, but I'm pretty sure this is a long weekend, at least for me. Anybody up for a game then?
Celestial Storm
Rebelious, would it not be better if you'd compile the information of the members in your first post?

Regardless, given that I've started playing again what with the new patch I'd be fine with doing a few multiplayer matches.


Timezone and times I am likely to be available: My time zone is CET -1. I can play most evenings (say, 7.30 to 12.00 PM) and I may have more time on tuesdays, fridays and weekends. It may be useful to send me a PM or something if you're interested in playing me.

Battle.net ID: Tycho
Battle.net Gateway: Europe, usually.
Skill level: Noob, probably. Never did a lot of multiplayer anyway.
MSN Messenger / AIM ID or IRC: Available. I have AIM on usually, but I could use MSN /IRC if preferred
Hosting: Haven't tried yet.

No other preferences at this time. -edit- Then again, it's ages ago that I played a game. I'm likely to mess up at fastest and I'm not used to non-standard games. But I'm open for anything.

-edit- I'm 'fraid I have to say my participation has been somewhat delayed. Computer related. Using the resident PC laptop.

Sounds good. <adds info to first post> Welcome aboard.
JoshTigerheart
I might be able to play tomorrow, depending on the time and if anything decides to happen or not.

Sounds good. A few notices and updates:

• First post updated (severely)
• Monday is celebrating Martin Luther King Jr, so Europeans won't be able to take advantage
• I need all info from: Prophile, 0101181920 (wow that's a mouthful), Esterlax (?), and Bomb, if you want to play
• Competitive or not? We could become competitive somewhat like the RRL, but that would take much more organization
• StarCraft or BroodWar? Tell me your preference if you haven't already
JoshTigerheart
Non-competitive. I'm not confident enough in my abilities to seriously compete.

And if I didn't already say it, Brood War. Lurkers all but saved me yesterday.
adam_0
I'll be on "ambrosia" as much as possible today. Any responses may take as long as 5 minutes, so don't freak out if I don't answer right away.
adam_0
This weekend is the end of finals week, PM me when you can play and I'll respond post-haste.
adam_0
Woot! Dogbert is back in the action (for those of you who didn't know: Dogbert broke his arm, but just got the cast removed). Unfortunately, this weekend is going to be very busy at points, but I'll be on as much as possible. Just PM me before you go on b.net and I'll get to it when I can.
adam_0
This weekend may be too short notice, but I'll be on as much as possible. If I'm not on, PM me and I'll be on as soon as I get it (and my computer is usually on all day on the weekends) If not this weekend, next?
JoshTigerheart
I could try when I do my laundry this weekend. But I can't predict exactly when I'll be doing it.
adam_0
Hopefully we can get somebody else to host a game biggrin.gif
JoshTigerheart
I'll be on a different, superior network during that time, fortunately, as opposed to my dorm connection.

That is όber. Now you'll really be able to destroy me this time. tongue.gif

I'm on "ambrosia" @ USEast right now, but I'm going to eat some breakfast, so I probably won't notice you if you get on... any and all are invited!
JoshTigerheart
It looks like it'll be tomorrow for me, likely sometime during the middle of the day.
adam_0
Daaaang. Anybody else?
adam_0
Back on today. Last call. PM me and I'll get on.
JoshTigerheart
blink.gif I just finished my laundry and got off! I could get on again for a little bit though.
adam_0
Good game, Josh. Too bad you had to leave...

I look forward to playing you again... mwahahahaha... blink.gif

I've stuck all of our replays onto my website for easy access, and statistics will follow.
bluemanrocks
Battle.net ID: bluemanrocks (or occasionally sandbox)

Timezones: EST (-5)

Preference of playing time: Anything after 2:30 PM on weekdays, 6:00 PM on Saturdays, and 2:30 PM on Sundays. Also, not on Thursday nights (after 6:30 PM).

Skill level (be honest): Errr..... not sure.... 2? I think I'm decent I guess. I really dunno.

If you can host a game: I think so

Map type: Right now I just play fastest, zc, and custom, but I'm working to learn how to play on bgh/lt/standard maps, so maybe those too, but not at first

Rushes: Sure, but I think game-to-game basis would be better.

Speed of map: Fastest.

Type of game: Anything's fine.


hopefully, im allowed to do this? ive actually been looking into leagues, except im not like an uber intensely good/avid player, and this came up when i googled unofficial league. i have a handful of friends who i play with and a couple might be interested in this.
adam_0
Welcome aboard, bluemanrocks!

...it's interesting that you found us using Google, I'll have to check it out myself to see what place this topic comes up in. (first, wow! that's really cool) I'll be adding your information to the first post shortly.

I think you'll find normal games to not be that hard. I actually thought I would hate the idea of needing to expand bases (I used to be exclusively Fastest Possible player) but I find the challenge to expand refreshing. It makes you have to manage 2 or 3 bases at the same time. I don't know if anybody here but me will play FPMs with you, but we'll see.
adam_0
Although I get this next week off for President's Day, I will be unavailable after Tuesday, so if you want to play some games, tomorrow and the next day would be the only time over this 1 week break.
Dogbert
If anyone would like to play a game, I'll be in channel ambrosia, us east in brood war
adam_0
Roger that!
adam_0
Good game, Dogbert.

Linky.
Dogbert
If anyone would like to play a game i'll be in channel ambrosia, us east, regular starcraft (not broodwar).
adam_0
You open again for today? I might be able to play in a couple of hours...
Dogbert
if only id seen that post sooner. getting late here so cant get any games in, but probably next weekend. If you like you could post some times you'll be able to get some rounds in next week and i can try and get a few in.
adam_0
Yeah, we'll see what my homework load is like next week.
Begemotike
Incidentally, if folks ever want to play, the best way to reach me is via AIM. My schedule is whacked, but I'm frequently up for a game, although I don't log onto b.net all that often.
Dogbert
It looks like i can get a game or two in this weekend. Anyone up for a match?
adam_0
Tomorrow will work great for me.
Dogbert
I'll be gone tomorrow from 1 to 4ish but i can play any time before or after that.
adam_0
Wait. I'm confusing myself with the timezones...

So 1-4 there would be 4-7 here. Ok, I can play you at around 8 PST / 5 EST.
Dogbert
alright cool, i'll try and get a game in. Just PM me or post when you get on.
adam_0
I'm sorry, but I'm looking at my homework load right now, and I severely underestimated it. My apologies, I won't be able to play.
Dogbert
thats alright. I ended up not having time for a game anyway. Maybe next week.
adam_0
Erm, that's Easter weekend... not gonna work, I won't be home. But maybe somebody else will...
Dogbert
It is? *looks at calander* huh forgot. ok never mind then
Dogbert
If anyone is up for a game i can play today or tomorrow, so let me know if anyone can play.
adam_0
*Raises hand* I can!! I'll be at the usual spot...
adam_0
I have this whole upcoming week off, so I'm available for about the next 9 days... just let me know (by posting back and PMing me) if / when you want to play.
