It's me again, TheHybrid...
OK, here's the deal... I've recently decided that I want to become a good Zerg player... And I mean good... As good as Ahzz, or U238... No matter how many months it takes...
Still, I'd like to "take a shortcut" to the end of my apprenticehood path...
If any GOOD Zerg player out there wishes to teach me the arts of the Zerg race, please contact me and we'll discuss the matter further...
Two notes though:
1. My time zone is GMT+02:00...
2. I usually play between 1 PM and 4 PM [GMT time] and sometimes [although quite often do to a bit of insomnia combined with sleep anxiety... don't ask] between 11 PM and 2 AM [GMT time]...
I'll attach my first ZvZ against the CPU so you'll see how much works needs to be done to transform a n00b into a g00d player...
I'm looking forward to call someone here "master"...
Yours truly,
TH

No, HERE is the deal:D:
1. sry for the big font
2. well, depends on opinion... it is [unfortunately:concern:] still a free country... both Romania and most of the world...
3. I don't play much on B.net... I'll try though... Hope ppl are as a friendly as you say...

Well, no one here would bother watching, and go to op swbk on useast. If you are lucky, ppl from warboards will be on, and you could ask them for help. A lot of ppl in the wbs clan play zerg:<

That contradiction amuses me.
And I don't think anyone will teach you to play unless you show some promise of becoming good. And playing the comp isn't the way to show people your potential.

wow U-238 is good? The world must've come to an end!! lol, jk.
And you cant take "short-cuts", starcraft is just like any other skill, you have to practice.

Yes starcraft is not a game where you can take shortcuts.
For starters I'd suggest reading this. (http://www.pgtour.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12620&db=bw) Save it to your favorites and read it often. It's helped me a ton with the basics. ANd basis are the most important thing you'll need to know.
As siegy said it helps to play on B.net. Goto op swbk and you'll probably find at least someone from warboards on there. It's hard to get a tutor though because there arn't too many people out there willing to train a player that isn't going to become a progamer.

Ya i liked that part too...anyways when r u gonna be online so we can do a little practice... i got owned by a guy in PvZ on pgt so i need training...
About the replay: well your mistake was u kinda massed minerals u had around 6k mins... :/ that means u need to learn better macro...
Oh and another advice start playing on maps used on pgt or LT because these maps r used in our ladder and in most 1v1 games with anyone from WBs or swbk...

Ok... you'll give me a list of PGT maps later on...
Well... I kinda already said that in the first post... In GMT+2, between 3 and 6 or between 10 and 1 [sometimes it can be between 10 and 12 or 10 and 10 (yep... 12 hours... hehe:P... but this rarely happens... like once every 2 months... or so)]...
And finally, on which gateway is swbk and is it "swbk" or "op swbk"...?

I watched your replay. I think one of your mistakes was that you didn't make a spire. If you've played against a human opponent all your armies could have been easily killed with 4 mutalisks.
