Ahh, understood. And of course! what was I thinking? I post on many forums. That simply makes sense.

Starcraft II is a bit faster pace than Starcraft I (both of which I will now refer to as SCI or SCII for simplicity)

SCII starts you with 6 builders, compared to the 4 you have in SCI. It is an incredibly large difference in how you manage early game economy. Also, instead of just the zerg, all three races have good early rushing / rush defense strategies. I personally defend early, then attack.
My favorite strategy is economy disruption. There is a new versatile protoss unit called the Void ray, the longer it attacks the more damage it does.

Hello. I am midgetman66. I started programming the calculator 2 years ago when I saw that the school's calculator had a pretty "prgm" button on it. I pressed the button and opened up pandora's box of creativity. Math programs to crappy text rpgs... I have had my fun with ti-basic.

A couple of things that I really need to figure out:
How to have more than 10 maps, and be compatible with xlib
How to use greyscale, and be compatible with xlib

Not that I want to use you guys, but this website looks like the best of the best. Especially compared to youtube... where people just brag about their programs xD

Totally just a new user. I programmed a couple games on my calculator, tried the whole Rendering bit with no knowledge of Xlib or anything fancy like that... and fell on my face. I am currently looking for a ti-basic greyscale tut. Can you help?

Want to play the beta? Go to gamestop and pre-order the game. The receipt has a beta-key on it. Register a Bnet account at www.Battle.Net, click "add game", then enter the cdkey on the receipt.
