All right. I suck at StarCraft. I maen I really really suck at this game. I use all the hotkeys, I know a ton of build orders, and I have a bunch of maps memorized. The problem is that I am crap at utilizing everything I know. My macro is very poor and when I panic my micro goes to hell.

I need some practice partners to play against. I'm a Terran player, I don't mind what species you play. The problem is that I just get owned by most people on-line and I need someone who can go a bit easier on me so I can get a better grasp of handling situations and managing my forces and production buildings.

Anyone who feels up to it, post here or PM me or something. I'll play on whatever server you want if I can connect, my current screen-names are listed below.

Evil_Phlegm @US East
Lord.of.Nukes @BnetX

If anyone can help me I would be most appreciative.

Not that I can elp, but you are VERy knowledgeable on everything SC it seems. I figured you to be good at it as far as ladder/melee gameplay goes. I suggest you play with people like J'kar or anyone else that still plays. Unfortulately, I bet I suck more then you do, so I'm of no help.

It's really annoying. I've been practicing melee for two years and I still lose more than 90% of the time. During that time, I also learned what pretty much every file in the StarCraft.mpqs does and how to modify it alongside watching and downloading over 400 replays. T_T

What's J'kar's screen-name for StarCraft? It's worth me adding as many people as I can to my friends' list for practice partners.

I think he means he turtles.

Ah, ok. This is here because the message is apparently too short.

I never would have imagined you to have trouble in Starcraft, since my hitherto experiences have shown you to have such sagely wisdom with it: "Here, use this combination of switches and triggers to make Starcraft randomly generate marines at the specified locations and then brew you piping hot Columbian coffee. And then use these switches to determine the color of the mug it arrives in."

I need to get back in practice, too, so I'd be willing to play you. I'm usually on the name ThingInTheCoat@US East, because I lack the originality to make different names.
