Well, lets just start off by saying it's been one frustrating day.......
Anyway lets begin with how my day started
When I woke up in the morning it I was keen as jelly beans to get stuck straight into my Bootcamp program. First thing I did was jump in the shower to wake up and go down to the shops to get some cereal to start my day off along with a nice big glass of Orange Juice!
Getting amped up to play some SC2 I wanted to warm my hands up first on the SC2Gears "Mouse Practice... [Read More]
Hey guys sorry about the missing blogs for the last two weeks, i had exam block+ assignments due and did not play 1v1s except for a few games+ some team games and customs, and i didn't think that was worth a blog.
Anyway, first day of holidays, waking up and deciding to listen to the static podcast and lying in bed before doing anything else.
started on the gold ladder rank 6 with 485 points. I started off playing random, but switched to Protoss later on in the day.
Game 1 ... [Read More]
I'm in a reminiscing mood, prepare for a WALL OF TEXT
I first started writing this in reply to the "your gaming history" thread, but decided it deserved it's own blog.
Basically I'm going to go through most of the games I remember playing and the good impressions they left me with!
-Command and Conquer original
- Warcraft 2 then Warcraft 1
-Red alert 1
-Playstation: FF7, FF8, Gran Turismo 2 and Tekken 3 were the 4 main games I owned. Played a few other adventure/rpg PS games but... [Read More]
Tomorrow i will be signing the lease to rent my very own apartment in South Yarra, Victoria.
I'm pretty excited as i've always wanted a sky-rise apartment on the top floor, with amazing city skyline views. Sadly i don't have that yet but i do have something quite similar.
A Small 1 bedroom apartment on the 13th floor of the 7 Yarra St Building. This apartment isn't the best, but one that suits my budget and has key aspects to what i was looking for: Awesome views (kinda) Balcony to fit a... [Read More]
Yup, since I have 2 weeks holidays starting next week I have decided to see how much I can improve over a 2 week period. Since I'm not going anywhere for holidays (trying to save money), I may as well stay at home, relax and try to improve my SC2 game.
Oh, nearly forgot. I should probably introduce myself to those who may not know of me (probably all of you! ahaha). I am a top 8 Gold Terran on SEA who just came back to SC2 from a month and a half break, due to work commitments Just... [Read More]
aside
Last week saw another lesson with Chobo, and me on top of my game, crushing nerds left right and centre. I joined this lesson by telling my supercoach just how well i was doing, including the % of time i was against opponents a league above me (which was a heap), that i was #1 in my plat division by a good margin and generally really happy with where I was in the game.
So, yeah. I think I've put off getting a promotion from to far too long. So, to kick myself into gear, I'm going to try to keep a blog on my journey there
This is a special entry for three reasons:-
It’s on a Monday and not your usual ‘end of the week’ entry.
This is my final entry for Panda’s Road to Gold.
I finally hit
It has been a long journey in my honest opinion. It took me approximately 45 days and 60 games to get to . And you know what? It was worth it. What do I plan to do after... [Read More]
Hi everyone
My name is FaDeMeatex and i'm a rage-a-holic...
So many people here know of me, mainly because of my reputation of being a stubborn raging qq whiner kid TT (i'm 27 btw)
I have complained a lot here about sc2, blizzard, real life and so on.
I know that some people don't respect me here or ignore me and I deserve it I guess ~.~;
I take offense easily and in most cases its unwarranted
I also am too quick to bm in game at times
But this comes as no new news to anyone who... [Read More]
Hey guys I thought I would take some pictures and share my experiences of my 21 day holiday
We have started from Crimebourne at 4 am, the day wasnt the most eventful, just making our way across to Mildura camping along the Murray River.
I have decided to be camera man of the trip due to noob interwebs from my phone credit I won't have many uploads of fully sick pictures, but ill probably end up uploading the better ones
I took a few pictures today, 90% of them being failures lol, I... [Read More]
So, yeah. I think I've put off getting a promotion from to far too long. So, to kick myself into gear, I'm going to try to keep a blog on my journey there
And we are back for another entry in Panda's Road to Gold. Wow, I’ve come a long way and I can actually see it . I’ve decided to stick to the spoiler method as it looks neater and my readers can jump to whichever game they want to read about I also added maps now :3 However, this week was really lacklustre and I felt like I was...

[2:35 AM] dippa: wondering if i should throw together a blog
[2:35 AM] neon: do it !
[2:35 AM] dippa: **** it
[2:35 AM] dippa: i'm bored
[2:35 AM] raycey: Haha, yeah totally!
And so we find ourselves, once more, at this juncture at 2:30am in the morning.
Let's begin.
I. I'm a pretty stubborn idiot, and I felt like a complete douche earlier this week when I came to the realisation just how useful and more critically - essential - it is to practice builds, not against a practice... [Read More]
Yesterday morning at 8am a man on a scooter went to a Jewish school in Toulouse and begun shooting on people and Children. He killed a professor and 2 of his sons (4 and 5 years old). He then proceeded to run in the school, grabbed a fleeing 7 years old girl by the hair and shooted her coldly in the head.
Witnesses affirm he had a camera around his torso to film his actions (to be confirmed).
It's the third attack by that same man who killed first a North African French Military the 11th... [Read More]
A little bit of background for anyone that doesn't know me. My name is Jared Krensel and I'm a full-time SC2 progamer (zerg) from Sydney, Australia playing for Tt eSPORTS.
Back to the old conundrum, didn't train very hard today so was meant to play atleast 15 games tonight only to find myself getting ~500ping to SEA.
Basically I hated the way I looked, always wanted to be fit and toned but never got around to it. www.gotgames.com.au started running a 12 week body transformation comp (which I signed up for) and started out doing the regular old lifting weights.
I discovered Crossfit through a friend and haven't looked back since. I am now working out 5 times a week, eating properly and loving it!
So, yeah. I think I've put off getting a promotion from to far too long. So, to kick myself into gear, I'm going to try to keep a blog on my journey there
And we are back for another entry in Panda's Road to Gold. Seeing as this week is the 5th week, 5th entry and what not (which let me tell you, has been quite the journey and I usually fail to keep a blog up for THIS long), I decided, 'Hell, lets just make this extra special'. And here, I have FIFTEEN games (13 from ladder, 2 from SEACL... [Read More]
Thursday marked the last day I could spend in my previous unit, with Friday being the end of the 30 days notice period you receive when owners decide they like their place a lot more when they're paying the mortgage themselves. Apparently he got a new job in Sydney or something (moving from Queensland) although the timing of the notice - one day before my lease expired - makes me wonder if it's not a giant ruse just to relist the property or find some way to...

A quick blog entry about my continuing coaching with AsG_Chobo and how I am travelling reaching my goals in relation to starcraft.
Firstly, i booked my second lesson with Chobo, at which time my PC promptly decided it wanted a new PSU (2 months out of warranty, it is almost as if they plan it that way), so $200 and 5 days off sc2, and i am back for my second lesson. Chobo took the rescheduling like a boss, he was so understanding and given that i had... [Read More]
So i was a huge Bisu fanboy in broodwar for like 4 years before sc2 came out, watched all his championships unfold, declared he was the best player ever, blah blah blah.
One of the most notable games bisu ever played was when he "horror gated" Pokju on sin peaks of baekdu (aka crossfire in sc2), as seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bk4L0JDAOoQ
He was the first person to ever do this kind of ridiculous manner pylon into proxy gates combo, and his opponent quit competitive BW very... [Read More]
