Hello all!
So I wanted to start off saying how encouraging the responses were on my first post. I expected maybe one but to get ten including some fantastic advice was really awesome so thank you!

With that taken care of I'm sure you are all wondering how I've been going. It has really been mixed. Running at about 50% win rate I'm winning as much as I'm losing on the ladder. TvZ I'm sitting at 60%, TvP 40%, and TvT a lowly 35%. Still these aren't what I'm after at the moment.

Managing 37 games since starting week one target has been hit and looks like I'm gonna smash week two as well. The three builds I learnt are Bomber's Reaper FE, Maru's Anti-Banshee FE and Flashes 3CC Reaper Hellion. I enjoy all of these macro focus builds. You may notice they are greedy but I figure that is a damn good way to get that ever important macro going.

There have been a few frustrating moments. On the whole it has been feeling much better the last few days. Really starting to get the hang of the cycle and always trying to spend that money. "Supply, SCV, units, buildings, army", has become somewhat of a mantra for me. Little things I have noticed is just having moments of losing focus and something will go out the window, whether scouting, macro, depo's or whatever just don't have the head space to really be ontop of things. On the whole no complaints.

I'm also going to take the time in these blogs to tell you a little bit more about myself in each one. Straight to the point, in my mid twenties from a good sized family I have three younger brothers. Luckily none of them yet play Starcraft so there is no home competition although I am toying with the idea of making the youngest the next Life unfortunately he is far too good a rugby player for that so I think perhaps we can see him in a Wallabies jersey in 4 years instead.

The goals for this week (fortnight) continue the 21 games (3 a day), continue the 3 build orders, use my camera location keys for all movement between ramps and bases.
Thanks for reading. Thank you to those who have offered me advice and help over the past week, see you on the ladder.

Stick to your guns and keep focusing on those core mechanics. Good to hear things are going well. It's really nice that you're hitting your goal too, consistency and dedication are some of the fastest ways to get results at the highest rate possible.
