So now that you should be able to access servers and crashes are barely seen, we'll start a colony tourney, or competition.

Are you interested.
Just fill in this form:

Colony Username:
Win Ratio:
Rank:
Time I'm usually onlinePlease, make this AG time to make things easier. So if your PST, subtract your time by 3 hours to match AG time)

I'll pair you up with someone who's on at the same time with similar rank/win ratios.

Alt broke my consecutive wins streak...


I didn't break it, the other team broke it.

Duh.

Besides, it was early on in the match, and I didn't have any way to stop the rush. Kill me for it, why don't ya. >.<

Right. and I did.

Point is, they had too many units for me to possibly kill in time. I hadn't gone to manufactory yet, and even if I did the scouts would spawn-kill any units I could build.

Point is, I had no way to defeat all the units attacking the base. We win some, we lose some. Get over it and quit whining. It's getting annoying.

You should've started with an armory.
I even pointed it out.

And it's not whining, it's being tactical.
:P
Or maybe it's whining.

Even then, I wouldn't have had enough time. The math here:

I had 4 dollars residual after building the armory.

For an armory set to money, it takes 10 seconds to earn 9 cash.

For a bank, it takes 4 seconds for 3.

So, an armory would take 30 seconds foe enough money, while a bank would take 43.

13 seconds would have made no difference - I simply would not have had enough time to raise enough money to repel their rush, no matter how I played things.
I had around 30 dollars when they attacked. Not enough to upgrade to manufactory, and barely enough to build a single phantom. When they attacked, I had a bank, an armory and a forge.

it's being tactical.


Whining constantly about a single loss isn't being tactical, it's being annoying.

Or maybe it's whining.


Yes, it's whining.

You know why no-one in the high ranks has a 100% win ratio? Because people win games and people lose games. It just so happens that we lost a game. It happens.

Also, releasing one or two tanks while you were upgrading wouldn't have killed you, and it would have made it possible for me to wipe out their rush. But I'm not crucifying you over that, am I?

You needed Sakatas.
If you started with an armory you would have still had time to get up the manufactory like you did before, and released Sakatas. They mostly had their air force wipe us out. Tanks wouldn't have done anything. But I do realize I made somewhat of an error :P
