    Let's just play Starcraft cause the D2x installer from the Blizz store asks for a 26 digit cd-key and the key on my case only has 16.

    Thanks Blizz.

    I think you're supposed to add your game to your account with the 16 digit cd-key, and once you do, you'll be given a 26 digit cd-key to use.

    Yeah I figured it out last night and it installs fine. Then it tells me I'm using a cd-key for a different game when I try to go online.


    Anyways STARCRAFT come on. Starcraft thread. Yeahh. They got Savior to agree to do at TL.net attack but I don't know if it'll come through.

    In the other thread they mentioned that's happening when some people try to get onto b.net east, but west works fine. Apparently Blizzard will start working on this Monday and fix is quick.

    I only had original, but they told me to get LoD anyway.

    We had plans to play some on Hamachi, but we haven't gotten around to it yet, if ever.

    There's a TL thread up with a lot of SC2 videos and impressions from people who went to the WWI.
    http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=74280&currentpage=1

    The couple folks who played said MBS wasn't a big deal and the game felt overall a lot like SC, but a bit slow (maybe because of the game speed). Some of the new abilities (especially zerg stuff) look pretty awesome.

    protoss force fields look pretty goddamn awesome too

    yes

    pageup and page down or something

    although you have to hold them down to keep the camera that way, so it makes them pretty much useless

    Those don't rotate it, they just do the mousewheel thing which is completely useless.

    I like if it's completely useless, or at least easily goes back to home position. The camera in games like myth (I think DoW had it too) mess me up because I can't play with camera controls like that.

    Anyone know if there's a way to get your CD key from your system (Win XP)? I have SC and BW installed on my desktop and want to put it on my laptop but I can't find my CD key.

    edit: or if I just play on the iCCup or whatever it is server, do I need a valid CD key?

    There are certainly programs that can pull cd-keys from games like that, but I think you'd have to do some pretty deep digging or get lucky to find one, because a lot of the developers made them harder to download after people just used them to steal game keys from internet cafes and whatnot.

    I think the horses represent the repressed homosexuality of the site. As ponies are most desired by little girls and gay boys. The snow signifies their own purity, which is being tainted by the horses. It's basically meant to sum up the struggle within everyone.

    Edit:
    I have another video where i was talking to these two girls from PMS Clan (counter strike players) and trying to explain who savior was. This was after i introduced them to him - they loved him enough to give him their room number....what a baller

    They should have posted that, because the rest of the videos are boring and filled with assholes.
