2007 is almost over, and 2008 is ahead of us, like a clean sheet. life brings many things, we all know that good and bad, it reveals many suprises when time comes. sometimes we lose the ones we love, and sometimes new life appears bringing joy with itself. we make thousands of decisions everyday. some of them are just simple ones, like coffee noire or cafe au lait, will he bunker rush me, or should i go muta or lurker first. more important ones are likely to change our life style, like carreer oppurtunities, like "ok i quit everything and go to korea to chase my dream of sc", or making a step further, and promoting in your job, but having less time for the things you love. the easier decisions are most likely to be the ones we are doing everyday so we probably know the outcome and can make a better one next time when we are in the same situation. but the bigger and rare decisions are a bit more difficult to fix if things go wrong. why are we working, why are we trying so hard, the love of the game, where does it come from ? answering those and similar questions sometimes take time, but i say this time should be spent wisely and generously when needed, so that we can see the purpose of what we are doing, rather than repeating the same things like monkey just for food or some reward. a reward which can never be compared with the time we are spending for those things. the only thing 2008 is unable or impossible to bring is the time we spent in 2007. so be wiser and have some more careful decisions. we arent a mice running in a cage, for some purpose we dont know. we are human beings who has the masterful ability of thinking and decision making. so make yourself a favor and spent some time for yourself. PS: i have no idea why i wrote this or why i wrote this here, just wanted to share i think ^^... sc forever, and happy new year | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The faithful community of StarCraft, for long years, has expected improvements in their beloved game. The expectations werent the impossible things in the world, and most of them have already been implemented by 3rd party software which is none other than BWLauncher coded by Ashur and his friends with all amateur passion afaik. The community wanted to have a hack-free environment, casual players wanted to see their APM ingame, wanted to have their replays saved automatically after the game and such. We wanted a decent ladder, after the very suspicious breakdown of our beloved PGT community cried for a ladder where Blizzard's own StarCraft ladder wasnt working for a long long time. Recently, 1 week ago to be specific, we had the new patch for StarCraft, 1.15.0 where we have the ladder improvement which is very nice, as the noobest casual gamer even i have missed a ladder ^^. We also had an autosave feature which saves the last game you played as Lastreplay.rep which means the game you played before is gone unless of course you havent copied it somewhere else. For anti-hack nothing is mentioned but i assume the hacks for previous versions will not work and the newer versions are on the way. I really cant see why blizzard cant implement some code with their highly trained and professional coders where a group of coders who doesnt even have access to the original StarCraft code can do. Yesterday, 19.05.2007, in Worldwide Invitational, the hype that has been created for months ended and the new project of Blizzard is announced, the "almighty" StarCraft 2. As I am a gosugamers.net crew member and Turkish A Team leader i am in the StarCraft scene quite activly and in relation with a lot of gamers (casual and high-skilled). Since I and the gamers have the common interest StarCraft we used to talk about it a lot. Frankly I don't remember any of my chats included "StarCraft with 3d would be nice" or "Hmmm maybe they should add some super-units to make the game play more fun and accurate" and such. Of course I understand that it is Blizzard's play ground and they can do whatever they want with their trade mark game. The presentation of the game showed the new units and the modifications of the already existing ones. The FAQ in StarCraft2.com tells that they will spend a nice effort for antihack and some nice features for battle.net gameplay. The question is wouldnt it be nicer if they have listened to the fellow starcraft community who has been playing the most wonderful, almost perfect and balanced game for almost 10 years. Rather than making it 3d, an effort on balancing a new race wouldnt be better ? I think some effort on being unique would have been better rather than copying some units from other games. I am not telling anything about the gameplay because it is neither possible nor would be wise to talk about it without playing. But something inside me whispers without stopping, that community needed, deserved better. We all know this is alpha and nothing we have seen here is the final product as Blizzard has already mentioned. Remember the Starcraft Alpha, and the creepy and freaky units and buildings and look what we have now. So many things will change and we still have a chance to have a more decent game which imho will be inferior to SC:BW but will have a larger casual player community because of all the flashy and 3d graphics. Time keeps a lot of things in secret and what it brings will be suprising for sure which can either be in a good way or a bad way. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

 team[rise] is a new formed turkish based clan. most players are from turkish b team. the idea first came from the protoss player mrblack aka metahuman, who nowadays i believe playing some other games which i dont want to mention. we are currently playing in wgtcl and bwcl. our first season in wgtcl (season 14) was ended with no wins and we completed our first season at the bottom of division 4h. now the new season started and we played our first wgtcl season 15 game vs russian based clan e2) and won 4-1. we were in the same group with e2) in season 14 too and we have lost 4-1 then. it is quite promising to see that we are improving. in bwcl we are currently in group 4f and doing quite well. we are sharing the position one with squad clan. i ve noticed in lower groups the competition in bwcl is quite low and i am expecting to move on to group 4e after this season. we didnt played well in bwcl cup. we had a freewin in round 1 and tiq beat us in round 2. now we have some additions from turkish A team, the players who don't have a clan on europe, snail and iskender. snail hasn't played in wgtcl yet but iskender is doing really fine as expected. the turkish b players jackson and lahmacun are doing a good job too. sugoku was a promising player but i ve heard that he will take a break on sc due to school and such. the clan site teamrise.teamturksc.com is, i think not the best site ever but enough good for a clan site including information about matches, players and providing a forum. though the main problem is the lack of visitors. this i cant solve. for further info : teamrise.teamturksc.com - the clan page rise at WGT rise at BWCL | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I started people playing starcraft at my company... One day we were talking about the computer games, and i must remind that they are well aware of my starcraft addiction, and my manager told me that he used to play rome, pharoah and that kind of staff. My ex-chief (now my collegaue, i have been promoted 6 months ago  ) confirmed him and seemed to be interested in the game. And they started asking questions, "What is the purpose ?", "What is RTS ?" and such... I am actually a patient person but the rain of questions only went harder and harder so i opened a replay  . My manager said he has some thinks to do and he wanted to check out when all the reporting and important work related stuff done. Anyway it was a TvZ (i really dont remember the players, it was a complete random one), and the first reaction was "They are different !!!". And i explained what is going on in the game with brief and understandable sentences. I said "the purpose is the same, u start in equal conditions and you are free to whatever u want to do, except ofc hacking to destroy your oppo."A couple of days later my ex-chief asked for a copy and i gave him one. While he was playing in the office and one of the coleagues saw him playing and seem to be interested also. So i again gave a briefing on SC and he wanted a copy too  . Things moved on like this and now there are 5 person playing SC and one of them asked for 3 more copies (i dont know why). They are currently playing the campaings of the original starcraft, i thought broodwar campaings might be a little bit difficult for a starter.Yesterday we played a 1v1 with my ex-chief. He is currently in the last episode of the original Starcraft Terran Campaign. It was a TvZ on lost temple eventually ended in short time. Then he said "show me what u did, and how did u have so many units so quick". The units were zerglings and i went for a 12 hatch and pool. (I am not a zerg player so i am not good with it but trying to learn it). I liked his eagerness and told him what he has done wrong. I think he had a general idea of what is going on better. Hopefully there will be more and we can have a company tournament. Who knows maybe some day i ll see my colleagues online, creating a game named "1v1 Newbie Game". | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

blog entry : 22.01.2007 The NW was against  Chile and we lost 5-0 which is quite suprising. I wasnt expecting that kind of performance neither from chile nor from us. It was disappointing but i believe can be overcome with a solid win next week. I am planning to have Portugal which will be a revenge game for us and hopefully will bring a win.-------------------------------------------------------------------- blog entry : 16.01.2007 We had a match vs  Canada B. ille and sto4m were unable to make it, though we won 3-0. It is nice to see that we can win in the absence of ace players though Canada B didnt have the line up they used to have. Still looking for NW for next week. It is wonderful to start the new season with a solid win.-------------------------------------------------------------------- blog entry : 27.12.2006 We lost vs Only. with a score of 5-2. The suprising part was that we lost 2v2 too. Beeswax and ille hasn't been losing 2v2 for a long time, but i dont think this is a big deal, since Only. had some nice players like  Iefnaij and  Hungtran. And i think clans always have that advantage against nations. Anyway as mentioned, no big deal.This week is new year so we will pass this one empty, and the other week i will most likely be offline, but if i can arrange a game from now, i can tell the trusted members so they might have a match which will be good in anycase. -------------------------------------------------------------------- blog entry : 24.12.2006 Due to christmas it was difficult to arrange a match but luckily  Romania answered my post about NW on WGTour and we played it yesterday. We won 4-1, our long time rivals. Though Romania'a line up wasnt the best they have. In that NW sto4m couldnt come to the match where he has already told me he might be a little bit late. I asked one of the other team members who has already declared that he couldnt play about that and he said "no" birefly when he was already online. I am quiet frustrated about that. I asked when i needed help, explained the situation and he just didnt care. I really didnt like his attitude. So in the absence of players i had to play the NW. Those who had a chance to play vs me knows my skills and it was a total slaughter for me which ended 2-0, and this was the only game we lost. Today we have a clan vs Nation event vs  Only. This will be good for practice for the players and being active is always good i think.-------------------------------------------------------------------- blog entry : 19.12.2006 I had a very tough time on finding an opponent this week. I have pm'ed the team leaders, trusted members everywhere. Everybody either was busy, nor didnt bother to answer. Since no one answered and i didnt want to spend the weekend without a NW, ille adviced me a Nation vs Clan would be fine and we asked some klans on West to find out that they didnt have very nice experiences with foreigners. Finally Chile-B was kind enough to answer and we had nation war which we lost 4-3. It was 5 1v1 and 2 2v2 and that was the main reason we lost. We dont have a 2nd 2v2 team so i better be more careful next time. One of the suprises was sto4m losing a PvP 2-0, which is his master match-up. BeeswaX and ille are in top shape and they are rocking in every Nation War . Snail played this week too, for the first time in a Nation war in A team which was under my administration. He lost, though he played vs Sharck who is a classy player. I am very happy to see snail so enthusiastic and willing to play.For next week i am hoping to arrange 2 Nation wars if i can find opponents. And if you feel like having a Nation War vs Turkey A feel free to post here or PM me. -------------------------------------------------------------------- blog entry : 11.12.2006 We have beaten  Italy. We weren't able to play last week and they were mannered so we postponed the game for the next week. We won it with a nice score of 4 - 1. I feel somewhat better now. I was kind of uncomfortable with losing.An other new blog entry would be the changes in the roster. duke is out, i really dont like this because he is a very good player, but he told me that he isnt interested in sc anymore. It is sad to see people leave. And with this, one of the first actions i have taken by being leader proved to be in vain. I have taken snail from the B-team. He is a skilled protoss and an active player. We will see how this goes as well.For the next week I've sent a PM to portugal for the re-match of our first match. If they accept we will play with them. I actually want to play vs  Mexico B too. Since they are in the 1st place in WGTNW standings, winning might well be quite profitable where losses will be minimum in terms of points.-------------------------------------------------------------------- blog entry : 30.11.2006 We are having another nation war this weekend, it will be vs italy. I hope we will win this one, I am really not good at losing it makes me feel very low, well we'll see. -------------------------------------------------------------------- blog entry : 12.11.2006 We lost to Noway. I made a bad draw and this is one of the reasons i guess. All the players showed up except park. I hope next time it will be better. -------------------------------------------------------------------- I've been the leader of Turkish-A starcraft team since 13.10.2006. I will try to blog here what is going on in the team, and see how we are improving/or not. When i started managing the team we had 3640 points in WGT nation wars with the rank of B6. Our first match was against  on 15th October and we lost 20 points and currently we have 3640 points in WGT and still have the rank B6.After being the leader of Turkish Team, my first move was to add  Duke to the team. He said he wanted to play in the match vs.Portugal though he didnt show up nevertheless i think it is a good think to have a player like him in the team. I want to see him more active, we'll see how this goes.My second move was to make  BeeswaX and sto4m trusted members for the team so that they can arrange matches when i am away or busy with other things like work, real life, etc. I didn't ask them before making them trusted members, though i haven't received any complaints so far.Our next match will be this sunday 12th November vs.  Norway A. The match is requested by Norway leader Kimmol. I am hoping for a victory this time.
