| Hey nice report. "Carrier Hiding" is a tactic that gets me from time to time. It never fails, the games where I fail to scout the entire map, that ONE place that I didn't scout is the where the Doom fleet is being constructed. This a great example of how important scouting is to a game. Praetor was smart in hiding his stargates. I should have known better, but even when I attacked that expansion, I DROPPED from the right side avoiding his choke. Foolish me, I never saw the stargates that crafty Praetor put at his choke. Grrr.. I'm confident I could have pulled out a victory if I had seen those stargates just a few minutes earlier. Good game Praetor. |

That was a fun/good report..
I liked the Pro Bowl rambling..
Also liked your speaking with the Personel and your characterization with the zeals and stuff..
Hard to xplain but I enjoyed it...

Sounds like a weird game, but is a good BR for a game played awhile ago.=]
Question: If Johnny had opted for frontal assaults...? Does he always do drops to attack? |

| Johnny did better to drop. Both my chokes were guarded by 2-3 cannons, plus the high ground advantage. Of course, if he had frontal assaulted my expansion, he would have seen those stargates..... |

| Well, at least it's a game where Protoss beats Terran. I've been seeing reports of so much of the opposite that I was starting to despair... |

| This was one of the better text reports I've read, you put in even one good shot and it's a gold (though personally I would have given it a seven anyway.) Really entertaining read. |

I love it how I'm getting praised for the 'intelligence' to 'hide' all my tech buildings at my choke... I suppose I can thank Blizzard, who made me build within range of my pylons. The dirty secret is, my chokes were the only place I actually had active pylons =).
HunterD, thanks for your compliments. If you've read other reports of mine, you know that in ten reports, I've never posted a single screen shot =). And, of course, it's hard to catch zealots playing pro bowl when they're on duty. Somehow they always know when the observer is around to take the incriminating photo! Grrr....

| The hiding carrier trick worked against Mark4 too =). I seem to have found the admin's weakness. MUAHAHHA. It was a small map, too. |

| Only if you try it on good reports...I've noticed nobody tries to get last on mine. I guess I failed the litmus test, huh? |

What? Are you saying you're reports are too acidic?
...Is there some secret joke that I'm missing here? ;p |

No, litmus test is slang for anything that determines a threshold. For instance: people trying to get last comments or not is a threshold that separates reporters (according to maareek). Being in the group that doesn't get last comments = falling below the threshold = failing the litmus test.
The irony is I just added a last comment to a maareek report. |
