Whoops, I just noticed that I made a few grammatical errors! Sorry about that. Ten bucks says I'll get less than 5.0 rating now...

rofl you wont get a 5 that was good id give it a nice big gold bengalass... hehehehe
hmm u seem to be like the same as me... i get sorta nocturnal when no school(i woke up at 3 o clock todayheheheeh) and i do the same thing... starve them out while mass producing stuff heheheheehe
man i hate hackers =[



#3 CertifiedInsane[2684]
You woke up at three o' clock? Man, that's early compared to my record, hehe. My record is sleeping in until about 5:30 in the afternoon, but that's because I stayed up until eight o' clock in the morning. hehehe. Top that!

Thanks for the comments, I appreciate it! I't nice to see that others like to employ the same tactics as I. Do you also finish them off with probes whenever you get the chance? hehe.

Nice report, but I don't think that guys a hacker just because he got lucky a few times and scouted your natural. A wise man once said "If you attack a base protected by 11 corsairs with 12 guardians, then you are not using a map hack."
#5 CertifiedInsane[2687]
The main reason I thought he was hacking was because of that incident early on with the shuttle. He had no units there to scout, my shuttles were way too far away for him to see them with his mutes, and yet he managed to on a straight collision course with it. There were some other things that happened as well, but the was the MAIN one. Can you explain it?

And like I said in the BR, I think he disabled the hack after a while. Because for the first half of the game he knew my every move, but after that he seemed more like a "real" player. Maybe he disabled the hack a while before his gaurdian attack to make sure the lag wouldn't drop him from the game or something. And he probably thought that his ground force would essentially wipe me out anyway, although it hardly did any damage at all.

Thanks for the comments!

The guy probably wasn't hacking.



#7 Mark4[2705]
Sometimes you just get lucky. Maps aren't that big. If he gets lucky once and scouts your natural like a good player, he probably isn't hacking. If he sends scourge from halfway across the map and they are cloned onto your shuttles <cough> vanilla championships <cough>, you probably got hacked.
#8 MikeyMonty[2710]
Also most Zerg players bury lings at expansions and key points on the map. He could have seen your shuttle with them. You didn't mention queens, but there is parasite too. Even if you have an observer over an expansion, its very difficult to spot small units burrowed in the mineral clusters.
#9 Eternity[2713]
I have two (good ?) reasons to explain the "shuttle incident" without a map hack:

1) The main goal of an early mutas rush is to harass and try to get to the peon line... now to do that you naturally go in from the back (as you were on twelve him on none, his mutas went straight up north (towards your shuttle) and then right to go for your prob line...

2) You had just tried to cannon him in so he new you had a shuttle so that you could expand on the islands... thus he scouts there (that one is a little more far fetched, he's really got to think fast :))

Otherwise nice BR :)

sometimes i finish them off with probes but most of the time i dont
THAT IS JUST CRUEL =[


#11 GunsandZealots[2768]
Map hacker, I think not. Have you heard of patrol, you could have known the map better than you. Heck, he may have gotton lucky, I even got lucky before and have found nice patches of dropships with some sairs.

The most important thing is that you played "Kill the Zerg"

BTW Lords pop easy too, well all zerg pop when fried in some Psi Storm. (except Cracklings, damn things are too fast! ok Ultralisk too)



#12 Snowreaver[2816]
Heh.. I think map hackers are a little more obvious than that. Last time someone did it to me was a ladder FFA months ago, and he got royally pissed when I trounced him first... flew his e-bay around out of sight so he could live long enough to shout out my troop movements to the other players.. ;/
