Cool things, some won games and build orders, build orders build orders!!!

Finally after weeks of having to focus completely on coursework for my degree i managed to steal a few hours to get a hand full of games of Starcraft 2 in. I took it under advice from a guy on twitter names #Resivirus that i should start to focus more on getting a few solid build orders in my pocket before worrying too much about general game play understanding. With that in mind i have played five games today and only lost one, all against opponents that come up on the start screen as favoured. That makes me happy inside :)
The grey, rainy lining to this otherwise silver cloud is that my bonus pool still stands at a dismal 200+ points even after these last games. And by the way who on earth decided to call that points system a bonus pool in the first place!? What on earth is 'bonus' about it? A bonus kick in the teeth when you win a match and see that half your points go to reducing the pool! I am not happy about that at all!
So yeah, i have reverted back to getting two variations of the 1/1/1 build locked down and one 3Rax early pressure build. When i get some more time i really want to re-learn a 1/1/1 with fast expand build that ForceSC2Strategy has on his YouTube channel. When I'm trying to get a build order pulled off to the best of my ability i often miss expansion timings and rely on just being able to role my opponent over in the first 10 minutes. The game that i did lose today was just down to allowing my opponent to stay one base up for far too long.
My lucky mascot also arrived a few days ago and he has been watching over me while i played today. Look at him, isn't he handsome ! :

Still so happy that i managed to pick up this Raynor Noobz for a very reasonable £50 on ebay.

In other news i have been working on this poster for ukstarcraft.net over the week. I managed to bend an assignment for my degree around producing some material for UKstarcraft's UK University Team League. What do you think for a rough draft of their poster? :

As you can tell this was just thrown together to get a rough idea and my Photoshop skills are pretty limited. However the league itself is a wicked idea and I'm glad to see that there are people out there looking to expand the UK Starcraft 2 community scene.

I'm going to head off now, i have been doing coursework all day and i want to go and chill out with my girlfriend and watch some films. Somehow we ended up watching an old Kojack film yesterday and it was just something special, it felt like i was being forcibly herded through the action by a midget with a Trombone! Hopefully we will watch something a bit more quality today.

Sorry i have been so quiet for the last week or so people. I will aim to rectify that as soon as time allows it.

Peace out peeps, keep owning
