| OK, i've read it now and it was alright, if the game ever actually happened. If either of you knew anything about ladder games, then you would know that you cant ally. Nice try at the br tho. |

as I said, I'm new to the Ladder thing. He might have been new to it as well, or maybe he forgot about the no-ally thing. Regardless, I was the victor this day.
As for the sucking of my report. Yes, yes it does suck. But I've been itching to post here, so I siezed this as my golden opportunity. Shoulda known better, and entered with a bang, flexing the fledgling Photoshop muscles I have possess. |

Nice. I liked it. Some pretty good jokes there. Just be glad the guy didn't disc on you.
I've played ladder games myself (not that many) and I didn't know you couldn't ally.

| Nope ladders still fast. Note that he did not ally in the end and he had a screenshot, so chances were this game was real. I liked your writing style and found it quite funny, something im not seeing much nowadays between the text only reports and the spam. Yea you need more description about the game on both sides. After the O cannon you never talk ab him again until I presume at least 5-10 minutes later when he hits you with a few archons, reavers, and dts. Nice report though. And for the record :) when ur surfing among BGH and 0-clutter maps, you cant "stumble" onto a ladder map seeing as how theyre in different catagories. |

| It is true you can't ally in ladder games but i have a feeling he picked a ladder map to play on but left the settings on melee not knowing how to change to ladder. Add more pictures and improve the writing style is what i suggest. |

No, it was a ladder game I found in the Ladder category. The only category where you're hard-pressed to find a NR20 game.
I guess that my opponent was just as new to the Ladder thing as I was. It had to be a ladder game, after the win, I went from 975 to 1000. |
| #19 Critique[115978] |
| 170.211.34.51 |
| When you said allyed you must of just worked together cause its impossible to check the persons name on the allied screen if your on ladder it will be covered up in gray. That is unless theres been a new patch in the last 3 months that allows it cause thats when i last played starcraft. |

good writing, bad game, near non existant pics and obvious newbie players ( no offense ) leads me to give this a 5.
Very good writing, btw. |

I can't believe some of these comments -.-
"It sucked"
Yeah, that's really nice information...
Anyways I thought it was pretty good, the fact that you're not very skilled was obvious, but didn't really matter as it was fun anyways.
Try flexing your photoshop muscles next time ;)
As Dag said, the writing was outstanding, but everything else lacked, therefore all u need is to scoop up a better game, OR even better; observe someone more skilled.
Lets see some flexing on ur next report, and tnx for the card :) |

My morning check of BR.com shows a new writer in the ranks, so I check out the story, find it not too shabby- as many have said, a lot better than much of the crap out there. So you don't have tons of pics- learn to add a nice one here and there, instead of flooding the report with pics to try making up for shabby writing. You've got decent writing skills, so...
Let's 1v1 on Temple, ladder match. I too must improve my ladder rating, and we seem to be about equal at skill. Saturday evenings are good fer me... look me up!

| wsip68-15-45-159.ri.ri.cox.net |
| Yeah, those grammar errors hurt me. Literally. I cringed. Anywho, as a web designer, I'd think you would've included more than 1 pic, and have it laid out very good as well. Also I didnt notice any html (different colors for names, bold, italics). Apply your web design skills to this and have someone proofread and you can make a killer br. |
| #26 Sovereignty[115997] |
| wsip68-15-45-159.ri.ri.cox.net |
| Oh yeah, don't insult your opponent by saying you're insanely better, like "i stomped his lame self in every category" as it makes you sound a bit arrogant. |

The report was a rush job. Now, to look for those grammatical errors. I was unaware that there were any.
HARV, see you Saturday! I'll start hanging in clan ~nohunters. |

Hi Chris,
I liked the br. To quote Sovereignty
"Also I didnt notice any html (different colors for names, bold, italics). Apply your web design skills to this and have someone proofread and you can make a killer br."
Think of this as marketing material for your web design business - keep the good writing, cut the arrogance, make it look good and report on an excellent game (then let the 9's and 10's roll in!). Oh, also lots of mini-map updates.
thanks man,
Wynr |
