Title: To all those who play Starcraft online

Have any of you ever played against a guy calling himself "Protoss General", or how about "Tenacious D" they are ... aquiantences from school. If you have played them, tell me what you think of their skill so I can take the piss.

I think people are now into Warcraft 3 and not that much into Starcraft as before.

lol, i still play Starcraft :p

You must remember that there's hundreds of thousands of people that play Starcraft/Broodwar online every minute.  The chances of us running into one of them is slim, and the chances of running into them and REMEMBERING them would be near impossible ;)

If you want to see how 'good' they are, then try running a search on their stats... in any chat room type:

/stats *name*

for example:

/stats Protoss General

would bring up something similar to this (numbers may be different):

120-56-9

Three numbers.  First number is how many games he's won (on that username), second is how many he's lost, third is how many games he's disconnected from (some people have excessively high disconnects, which means they disconnect when they're 'losing' so they won't get a 'loss'... they get a disconnect instead... i used to do this occasionally, but then i realized how gay it was, so i changed usernames and haven't done it since :p )

Stats don't always mean that the player's good, i've met people with
10-569-38
records that are awesome, but they want to have a bad record so people misjudge them :) lol, and before they win they 'exit'

Regardless, if you want to play a game anytime and i'm online, message me.

Oh, and even if these guys think they're good tell them to try to take me and vadar_1 on!

I've played Tenacious D in Alien vs. Predator 2...He was actually pretty good, though I could still beat him. I've always been really really good at FPS games, no idea why

Haven't even seen the guy in starcraft though
