I'd be like "wow my internet is going fast" with that speed
With 100ms ping?

Flicking thru the thread I read this and was like who the fuck does this non Australian think he is... But then I looked at the name.. Carry on
Had the system draw a match for the first time (click to enlarge):
To win the game I need the queen and the spine to survive so I could kill his cannons in my base. I had more stuff but he had forcefields (also I didn't know he had so few probes). I did take out a different cannon a moment earlier by transfusing the spine, but I lost a queen ;_;
At the very last moment I decided to make an extractor so it wouldn't draw and I was going to try and kill everything but it didn't count as building a building I guess so it drew anyway. What would've you guys done with these units in that situation?
I was zerg, thats in his base..

Slow internet has caused me to go down the wiki hole and some other shit.
Things Ive learned:
-Noodle from Gorillaz is a girl
-Daft Punk is from France (fu hugo)
-I still like music from the 90s/early 00s
-Playing MW3 with slow internet is horrible. Yet I still get enough kills
-I want the samsung galaxy note

This is what I did for the first cannon when I had two queens. It takes a long time for a spine to burrow though and he can forcefield everything back and hit it with sentries+stalkers too. I felt like I had to commit to killing everything or nothing. Which I was going to.
I didn't know the rules for stopping the draws though needed you to actually finish a building - http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Stalemate_Detection
I definitely missed an opportunity to win either way, feels bad man.
1 queen is 4 transfuses at max energy which is like..500 health. It takes ~250 before burrowing just from the cannon. Probably like 600 total if the stalkers+sentries are attacking it (I also wasn't quite sure on sentry/stalker count whilst in-game). Also 12 forcefields.
The queen only hit 200 energy like 10 secs before the match ended so there wasn't enough time to kill the cannon at that point so I would've only had 3 tranfusions earlier.
Watching replay I see a timing after I killed third cannon and he'd used all his forcefields where I could've just overran it without the spines help, but hard to recognise in-game.

Why are you researching bands you have clearly no interest in?

I couldn't live in those conditions. Tell me this is dorm access! I can't fathom anyone having to use those DSL speeds.

I didn't think tek savvy had docsis3.0?

Their highest speed package is Docsis 3.0. It is glorious! Except for that it's still at the whim of Rogers, which means it can go from 40 Mb/s to ~10 Mb/s within minutes.

Yet you still get better ping than me in bf3 games ;; f'in canadian servers!
Also, it only goes over 24mbit for a short period of time, thanks to SpeedBoost.
The upload in Canada is trash though. I hate it, because I'd love to do some video game streaming otherwise.
Europe is only a country when they want to compare the billion actual countries within it to the US.
So it's a super country?
something something blah blah World Series.

I've been able to pull 30-35 Mb/s pretty consistently most days, there just seems to be a 3-4 hours gap every day where it decides I barely get 10. Of course I'm in a brand new building around Square 1, so that might have something to do with it.
You can get an ok stream going with 1.2Mb upload
Well, no. Europe tries to include all those countries so they can look *better*So its like the US when it counts Cali!

This ladder season is destroying me...losing so many games. Wasnt this bad prevous season...sigh
:lol
So he's high Diamond?
Every season some of the worst players leave the game, making every league harder.
now that im back in masters, i completely agree with and support your theory.
What is the bruny?
Went through and converted the times for Assembly and MLG to AWST.
Assembly Summer 2012:
Friday 6pm --> Saturday 4am
Saturday 4pm --> Sunday 4am
MLG Winter Arena:
Saturday 6.30am --> Saturday 1pm
Sunday 2:30am --> Sunday 11am
Monday 1:30am --> Monday 9am
Before this I had floated the thought of buying a MLG Winter Arena pass, but with the way the timezones work out it's simply not worth it. I wouldn't be able to watch the finals anyway (work Monday morning)
