So instead of putting this off and putting it off... (not doing it) I'll just write some words now about ACL Melbourne and hope people read it~
(Gonna write it in blocks of my favourite experiences at melb)
THE ******* TRAFFIC
Holy ****. Never bloody going by car again, there are too many people in Melbourne for a car to be a viable mode of transport.
Matt93 is a liar, Melbourne is shit. (jk, only matt is shit)
The people also never waved when you let them into a lane...... [Read More]
ACL Melbourne 2015
A Dragons Tale
By Jamie "Ice" Beresford
Hey guys just wanna share a little tale from this weekends endeavours
First off this adventure started on Friday and me picking both Osiris and Rize up before we made the long drive to Melbourne. Now usually a drive to Melbourne from Adelaide will take 8-9 hours this drive however took closer to 11.. Coming from Adelaide i have no sense in the word traffic. The traffic we faced as we came into Melbourne made me rage more than

Hey guys, it was nice to know you as my human self.
However, upon 2-0ing forgg on ladder, getting 12 wins in a row and climbing from rank 60 to rank 23 NA ladder in one day I have transcended humanity.
I look forward to meeting you all again, as a god this time.
I can't really explain how it feels to transcend humanity, it's really quite an amazing out of body experience. I feel like I'm really close to reaching super saiyan.
1. Play 10 Games a Day/Night against Real Opponents.
2. Using the Staircase Method: Step 4. I am going to attempt to achieve 5 games in a row vs. real opponents (either in customs or Ladder) where I maintain a spending quota which is of at least Diamond Level.
3. I hope to improve my blink Stalker and Warp prism Micro.[
I was only able to play about 17 games over the period of 6 days (Thanks to Slayer and Legionnaire for playing games... [Read More]
I'm not just a bad Starcraft player, I am a terrible starcraft player.
In order to try and improve myself I joined "The Proving Grounds" which is a group for those trying to get into The Sandbox. I guess it is an attempt to prove your motivation to try and get better. I quite like it, it gives me some motivation to even open up Starcraft and play the game.
In addition to joining "The Proving Grounds" I also took up some basic training method developed by... [Read More]
My housemates are looking at moving out at the end of this year/maybe start of next. I am possibly looking for some new housemates.
OII(okay I'm interested):
I live out in the Footscray area. Roughly 15min to the city by train (of which there are THREE stations within easy walking distance), along with standard cool-stuff nearby. The total rent for my quaint little place is about $1700 per month, give or take, I can't remember right now.

More to follow, about the exploits of Spartaz and his journey to finding his way as the last true casual
Paragraph 1: - Contributor Spartaz
A cold winters morning, or was it afternoon, the days have been blurring into one. After an arduous trek to his inescapable prison that was his place of learning, Spartaz decides to reminisce to happier times, those days that he... [Read More]

I hereby apologize to every single Protoss I've shamed by not using the fast warp in hotkey thing. I would like to thank Jessie and Probe for showing me the light and saving me from my sinful ways. Please find it in your heart to forgive a poor soul such as I.

ACL Sydney 2015 was, in my opinion, the best ACL yet. The venue was good and not too far away from various food places. For once there were no lag/dc issues for the entire first day (only issues came when the CS dudes unplugged the net not once but twice on day 2 -__-) and most importantly, I had the most fun chilling out and talking with people, especially my SYF teammates. We all cheered for each other and watched each other's games when we could and it was a great experience.
LOL JUST JOKING I DIDN'T GO TO ACL WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
Jokes aside, I'll be talking about how the month of June went for me, since it was more about life than staying at home. As I have "summarised" how my June would go in my previous blog, that was exactly what happened in June! So I won't really bore you guys with the details of painting and stuff, but yes, I'd say my time in June was well-spent. Happy and satisfied faces makes me happy I guess!
TL;DR - Painting is fun, families are... [Read More]
Hi guys, as you know I'm one of the most famous people on this website and after seeing so many no names write blogs I decided people might want to read something by someone important instead.
Friday:
Woke up at 4am to catch a bus at 5am. Pox also caught the bus but I didn't talk to him because it was 5am and I slept for most of it. We arrived at the airport a little later than expected and after sitting down for 10 minutes I checked the flight tracker website and saw that David had... [Read More]
**Disclaimer - this will be a literal wall of text split into what happened on each day... so if you're looking for a novel with perfect formatting, look away!**
Today started with le flight, it was around mid-day so no dramas there... the only interesting parts of this day were when I landed in Sydney.
The Sydney airport was bigger than the
ACL was awesome again, i had so much fun and ill be sure to attend the next one. My ACL experience was good, the tournament aspect went really well and I had no issues as to how it was run, I even think that the way the group players went into the championship bracket was an improvement (Baldie was trial running a new format). I did find the venue a bit cold at some points and it was a bit of a mission the get the hands going at the start of the days.
Friday
I had quite an early flight,... [Read More]
Arriving into sydney at 6am was a death sentence as the flight takes 4 hours but its also at midnight so you pretty much get no sleep, anyways after i arrived i had to wait 4 hours for Jamie (Ice) to get into the airport so we can catch a cab to Mikeys house (Psycho) as thats where we were staying for the weekend. Once Jamie arrived we went to Mikeys house and started the practicing of Sc2, On no sleep i decided to stay up for as long as i could and just push through and... [Read More]
