So this is the first season that I've really played a lot of games on ICCUP. Finally, it seemed like I was good enough climb the ranks (I was winning about 2/3 of my games vs. Toss, 1/2 vs. zerg, and 1/3 vs. Terran. See my last blog about my problems against terran...). Anyway, I was sooo excited today because I was at 1950, and was in the process of raping a toss.
I get a message that the server is going to reset for the next season. "No Problem", I think, "I've got plenty of time to win this and finally get my D+. But somehow he manages to come back (He broke my contain despite my 4 bases and cracklings, and raped my expansions with DTs). I desperately start another game, ZvZ this time to make it short, and lose again (it took a long time though). One more try i thought, i can still get above 2000 if I beat a D+ on a MOTW. But no, as my 12 hatch dies to proxy two gate, I realize that it will be quite some time yet before I finally reach that illusive D+.

I can't believe how rigged tvz is. Everytime he makes a mistake, I get s small advantage. But if I make any mistakes, BOOM, gg.
It's like, oh, 12 speedlings in his base? Well, if I dance them around very well I can pick off a few scvs, great. Of course I can't directly attack his scvs, because his giant robot workers will completely dominate my fragile little dogs.
But if he gets a small force of M and M in my base, all my workers go pop pop pop done. I'm like, oh shit, better send all my zerglings to stop them. Double the supply, should be enough, right? Except that if I don't time the flank perfectly, all my poor zerglings die before doing ANY DAMAGE AT ALL.
GRRRRR this is frustrating. So tired of losing games where I build up a huge early game advantage, only to lose it all to some stupid micro blunder.

I've searched so hard and found nothing. All I've found is that it's NOT at Yongsan like the rest of the games, but somewhere else instead? Where?

Is it at the the LOOX center, like MSL? I'm in Seoul now and I'd love to go to the OSL games tomorrow.
Edit: also, what about Gom TV classic games?

So I leave for Korea on monday. I had applied for a visa almost a month ago. but I forgot to enclose a proper photo. For some reason they can't just copy my passport photo, they need me to make a copy for them, grr. And after sitting on my application for about 2 weeks they finally told me.
I sent them the photo, regular mail, and after a week with no word from them I realized that it had been lost in the mail. So, try again.
Express mail this time, paid both ways. I send it last friday, just got it today. The visa looks so pretty! And it's really satisfying to me that the korean embassy would have such great timing.

Has anyone here ever had a threesome? I think I had a chance, last night, but I messed it up.
My friend Jane said invited me and my friend Pedro out to a bar with her. We go, and meet some of her friends there. I'm having a good time talking to her friends and flirting with her, but Pedro isn't, because he's a really quiet nerdy guy who never goes to bars.
So he leaves, and my ex, Larissa, comes into the bar. She's a really sexy girl, who broke up with me to date some asshole, and I've been trying to get back with her ever since. Also, she's bi, and I know that she's at least made out with Jane before.
So me, Jane, and Larissa are all hanging out at the bar with some other people, drinking a lot, and they're both flirting with me and with each other. At one point Jane asked us if we were dating anyone, and we both said no, and she was like "so, i guess we're all single here..."
We left at close, to go smoke pot at Jane's apartment. So now it's just me, Jane, and Larissa, sitting there listening to music, with nothing to do. I tried to touch Jane, but she backed off, and said something like "boy I'm really tired...". I asked her to dance with me, and she said no. Eventually I just gave up, and took Larissa home. I tried to go in with her, but got denied again.
Anyone have any good advice, or stories? I'm gonna see both these girls again on Friday. What should I do?

Remember back when Wemade Fox was still Pantech? They're only good player was Nada. He'd win one game, and then usually all the rest of their team would lose. If they were lucky though, some other guy would get lucky and win one, and then Nada would win again in the ace match. That was the ONLY way they'd win matches.
And now KTF is doing the same thing. Almost all of their wins come from Flash winning two games, and some loser like 815 winning one. They're not really a team anymore... they're just Flash + some washed up celebrities (who are admittedly still pretty sexy) + no names.
