    It just stands that she didn't make diamond in 25 games of SC2 total. She probably forgot to mention all of the time spent on SC and BW and other RTS games.

    It's also kinda pointless for me to try and get "brownie points" with someone i barely know on an internet forum.
    If she's on your friends list on SC, that's 2 points of contact. Then all it would take is a little initiative on your part and things could get hot and heavy between you two.

    That's basically my whole point.

    Nah, I haven't played any RTS games since Warcraft 2. I mainly play FPS games. I only played about 100-150 games in SC2 beta as well. I just have some good practice partners to play with every day and read/post on teamliquid.net a lot.

    It's funny, though, I have a friend stuck in platinum. He's 31-11 and has 250 points higher than 2nd place in his platinum division, but it still won't promote him. Some people are glitched like that.

    I guess some people are just gifted that way. Hopefully you can use those gifts to cure cancer and not just play video games well.

    The easiest way to make it into Diamond League, is to play Terran, make any combination of units you want, and then attack move your enemy at around 8-10 minutes into the game. Works every time.

    also 100 toss wins i kiss my colossus avatar each time I win.

Of course they won't give it to us now as amazingly fucking easy as it is for them to... we need to pay 50bucks or 60? however much that faggot expansion is. Blizzard and EA are scum.
    I've only been playing my weakest race this past 2 seasons.
    Expansions have been around for the longest time. This is nothing new. Plus, don't you think you got your money's worth out of WOL?

    most of you have probably seen this already....i hope.

    blizzard confirmed for cinematic master race. (relic comes second)
    they really should make a movie for the animators to work on, their cinematic quality is above absolutely *everything* on the market...no exaggeration! So much...."wasted"... potential.

    Was kind of surprised to hear an expansion was coming out, then read it was part of the original plan to release 3 sequels each focusing on a different race.

    I wonder, since it's an expansion, will you need the original game installed in order to play it? I still have my SC2 CDs, but I'm sure some will struggle to find their install CDs.

    edit: nvm

    its not a standalone addon, you need sc2 to play it
    but battle.net client downloader solves.

    btw: afaik there won't be 3 sequels

    just liberty + HotS + Protoss Addon

    Oh right, not sequels, but 3 parts of SCII, one each for each race.

    Playing SC2:HotS now. Somehow SC is still fun even though RTS's time has passed. Problem with HotS is that normal is too easy and hard is too difficult. They need a difficulty level in between.

    The problem with HotS is that brutal is too easy. Seriously, WoL was way harder.
