Honestly, for most players, especially those in bronze/copper/silver, forget about strategy. I get questions like "what do you do against X?" or "how do you stop Y as Z?" and the truth is you didn't lose to it because X or Y is overpowered or imbalanced. 90% of the time, you lost because you...

Since Tek requested them, the second and third replays are games where I was Protoss vs Random on Blistering Sands and beat a proxy 2 gate. I thought there were three, but there were only two, so I also added the first game where I used it in a Random(Protoss) vs Protoss on the same map. This...

If you want basic tips, post some reps, and I'll comment.

protip: build more scv/probe/drone

He said that was true a year ago, but I don't see him saying that now. Ling/baneling micro, roach micro, and muta micro can all be pretty interesting (although muta micro isn't as fun as SC1 muta micro post-JulyZerg and stacking). Then there's also using creep well, and the whole nydus mechanic...

Download replays from teamliquid or gosugamers. But... uh... really, it's a beta. Everyone is experimenting with build orders, and so should you.

The guy with the 20 hydras is doing something wrong if he's losing to 6 void rays.

That's pretty amazing if you can make an assessment about the game's balance from only two games. IMO this beta is more balanced than just about any other RTS at release. It's way more balanced than Starcraft 1.00, and probably even more balanced than 1.05. I've only played about 100 games of...

Very old link: http://classic.battle.net/fsp.shtml. If you didn't proactively contact Blizzard, I don't know how you can expect them to know to give you a beta key :(

Yes, Starcraft II. Did you contact Blizzard directly or register under their fansite program?

I've been playing tons of SC2, but I can probably make some time for some BW!

Wow. I swung by to see if any of the old-timers had gotten the SC2 beta (I didn't, btw, but I was curious), and I was pretty surprised to see this at the top of the forum. I still play Starcraft from time to time - maybe once a month or so - although I'm well past my prime at this point =) I no...

Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY Edition 19.97 at Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000V9C9FO/ref=pd_luc_mri?%5Fencoding=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&v=glance has both expansions. i just bought L4D, but at this price, i might pick up oblivion to play later

Public key encryption is just as secure as private key encryption for all intents and purposes, given that you use "large" enough keys (edit: and no one solves the P=NP problem anytime soon). You can nitpick all you want about bla-bla not being 100% secure, but nothing is 100% secure (how do you...

Left 4 Dead should be 39.99 at Fry's and Circuit City this week. I barely play games anymore (I still have Mass Effect unopened), but this is tempting with Thanksgiving and winter break coming up.

Taxes have never worked that way, and that isn't going to change. The tax hike is on the amount earned beyond $250k. e.g. if you earn $300k, the first $250k will be taxed exactly the same as it has been. The extra $50k will be taxed more. This is how tax brackets have always worked.

I should add though that C&C: Generals/Zero Hour was an exception, and although I never played it, a lot of people have said that it was a decent RTS with reasonably deep gameplay.

Sorry, but the C&C series is far more notorious as a one-tactic game in comparison to Starcraft. Starcraft at anything beyond the 3v3/4v4 team and comp stomp on money/fast maps is very deep. Every C&C game has always been about tank rushes, and it's the only strategy used in competitive play.

Umm... it really isn't spending $150 to play a game. It's basically going to be like any other expansion, since the reason they are making a trilogy is so that they can flesh out each campaign to be the equivalent of a full-blown campaign for a game. I wouldn't expect the second part of...

i don't really have time to play anymore these days, but a couple old videos i made http://www.divshare.com/download/1275531-195 not sure if the link still works there are games i played against a friend with some commentary. i'm not particularly good compared to the competitive scene...
