My Year Without Sex
 
Despite the title this has nothing to do with actual sex. I named it such as I thought it was a good phrase for saying "I'm playing Starcraft 2 for a year".
Anyway, this is my weekly blog on all the things I learn about Starcraft, the experiences I've had with the game and maybe a bit about my personal life as well.

Chapter 1 - My life now.

So I'm in year ten, I'm Australian, Got a Girlfriend, I'm a Silver League Zerg Player and I'm trying to get to Platinum by the end of the year a modest goal but I would rather get up with skill rather than say 6 pool my way there.

I wanted to try some other races this week, I was a little bored of Zerg and I race switch for a few days every so often, it keeps me on my feet. I tried Terran but I kept getting beat down by Banelings and I tried Protoss but I couldn't defend against those bloody mutalisks!

With this new found fear for Zerg units I went back to the Swarm. After a few games I started to learn a new trick. I tried to flank the opponents army and defeat him with just Zerglings. It work much better than I though.

Now I am using mainly Zergling, Roach, Muta, Ultra army and it works a treat.

I've been 1v1ing hard to try and get to Gold. I'm beating Golds with a 55% rate and Silvers with an 85% win rate. I think I am really close.

Till next week. Zanderax

Good luck !

Re: My Year Without Sex
 
My advice: Focus more on your girlfriend that in sc2. Sex is a lot better than the feeling of getting into grandmaster.

You'll thank me in a few years.

Be prepared for a lot of frustration. Maybe you can foreplay with your girlfriend should you rage at losses.

Re: My Year Without Sex
 
Girlfriend > SC2 btw. Always be clear of this. Had some issues with mine because of gaming (especially WoW, that bloody time sink), had to do some soul searching to get my priorities set straight.

+ [Then again] +
Then again, depends on how serious your 'girlfriend' is. If it's just a fling kind of thing, then this does not apply

Re: My Year Without Sex
 
It's kinda serious but I talk to her a lot and SC2 seems to automatically take a back seat with her anyway, she knows I like to play and gives me some time.

Absolutely not. I am currently witch-hunting for the person that first thought of abstinence

Wrong again, marriage doesn't come packed with sex. You are likely to have less sex after marriage than before. Your call.

But he already has gf >_>

It's not hard to pick up and game same time. Closet nerd style, just get your priorities right and you'll get the best of both worlds. :P

PS. Mad respect for you for saving yourself for marriage, the older you get if you continue to get girls its gonna be harder and harder. GLGL

He's in tenth grade lol, how serious can his relationship be? Stop giving him poor advice. :P

Re: My Year Without Sex
 
I actually really wasn't focusing on my relationship at all. I said I had a gf and the title is more of a joke that I thought I made clear; No sex for a year is like saying "I'm playing Starcraft for a year"

Ah, Ah, I'm not GM and will probably never be, but I couldn't agree more.

Reading the different comments was great. Showing how people of different countries from Russia to Australia passing by Malaysia and Indonesia see sex on a sc2 forum is awesome.

Even more impressive is the way people speak about it quite freely without being afraid of being mocked, that's great.

Next_Rim, I remember you were going to be married soon. Is it done yet ? About sex after marriage, you bought a wife, it's expensive enough before and after, she's at your disposal every day, use her without refrain by all means (and she will like it) !

That's a broad overestimation. But meh, girls are different after all. Some might be.
