Very Interesting Stroies people....All your Base Are Belong To us

Once upon a blue moon...Ermm..One Day my friend is like a Computer Nerd...and his Brother a Computer Scientist...And his brother was a Computer Scientist/Pirate...so He could Pirate Games like a week before it is released...And well...I went over to my friends house...i think 2001 or 2002 forgot -_- and i sawhim playing Starcraft....I was like "WTF?". The game looked SOOO crappy....And yet i wanted to play it but Stayed away from it...

Here is the God part...I went to Wal-Mart One day (I think i was about 10-11 about that Time)And when i was about 9-11 I would Steal alot from Stores....and well....Starcraft was sitting on the Computer Games shelf...for 10.00$...I'm like I ain't got that kind of Cash -_-...So I kinda....Stole some Scissors....And opened the little tape thing on the top of it...And then i took the SC game outta the box(it was a Battle Chest...I just got SC and left Bw there)And i took the CD case out and....then opened the CD case and took the CD...but i remembered....There were some Numbers on the back...I was like "CRAP THE CD KEY"..

I then asked my mom lend me a pen and i wrote the CD key on my Hand...Wal-mart back then was too Easy to Steal from.

I played SC...it was like Red alert 2..cept i had no internet back then...they took it away from me cry.gif

So...I played..then i gave up on the Campaign missions...But I'm not a quitter...I shelved it for about 2 years....then I said I'll play it again....I passed all the missions this time..w00t...Then my comp. had a Virus...and they had to Format my compy....nooooooo...I had my CD key in a TeXt file and they erased it..GAH!!!!?!%@^#%&%

So...then..If i can remember...On Feburary of 2004 I called my friend to see if he had a CD key....and he told me to go on Battle.net...so i went on...and thats how i got SC... w00t.gif

I have this friend who never leaves his house and all he does is play video games. So i go over to his house one day and saw him playing Starcraft. I started watching him day after day thinking what a cool game it was. Then one day it hit me: What the hell am i just watching him for? So I left his house and then bugged my parents until they took me to the store.

Well... I had the game covered with three inches of dust. I was still young and had no idea of the online gaming world. One day... I decided to press the "Multiplayer" button instead. I tried all the possibilies and one of them worked (Battle.net)! I was a mondo n00bl4r, no clue about message system, I didn't even find out about UMS until 1 month in >.< (Remember, I was very young). And that is how things came to be, this was my first online experience and I'm still playing it six years later! Viva la Starcraft!

And our computering master allow us play after classes. We orginized 3 or 4 tournaments (may be 5=), two last by my comanding). I think a still have some replays from some of these. wink.gif

Way back in 2000, I played a game called Starsiege: TRIBES (I also made maps for it as well)... A lot of my friends that I played with had Starcraft: Broodwar so I decided to buy it myself. They all played melee and I really didn't like it. Then a friend showed me the world of UMS... And that's when my view on Starcraft changed. I loaded up StarEdit... and the rest is history...

I made maps for a little while, then I ultimately quit Starcraft and got more involved in TRIBES... Then about a year ago, I've put up the TRIBES armor, and got back on Starcraft and familarized myself with the editor once again.

I got into Starcraft about a month after it came out. I was with my dad at the electronics store the first day it came out but he wouldnt let me play it until he had played first so I had to wait about a month.
