I have a lot of ideas, while at work or not. I put them on little notes that I keep around for myself. I need some way to convince myself to actually do one or two of these things. People: How do you convince the lump of flesh in-between your ears to do what you want it to do?
Short version: Motivate me /b/.

2:17 pm - Learning Starcraft: Part 1
|
Inspired by Sirlin's blog, I have decided to learn Starcraft. I have tried this in the past and failed. This time, I hope to succeed. This shall serve as a log of my efforts toward knowing how to play Starcraft.
I have been thinking of Starcraft a lot, at work. It's a fun game to think about. One way to think of it is in terms of the math. If you have such and such many zerglings, and your opponent has such and such many zealots, it takes so many attacks for someone to die. I've been learning a lot about how important 'focus' is. For example, if you have a unit of Dragoons, you want to bind them into a group and have them all shoot the same guy. This means range upgrades are always awesome.
This is the reason zealots always win to zerglings. Zealots are as effective per-blow as several zerglings. They have to move around less, too, because there are less of them. As written in Sirlin's blog, Flux is the number of units in an area. A higher flux makes melee focus harder to achieve. For the zerg, melee flux is very important. The role of zerglings is to increase melee flux so that zealots and other units are busy for long enough that your hydralisks can kill them.
More later.

For those who might be concerned:
Weapons of the Gods might not be happening this week due to deadlines encroaching on my personal time, much to my chagrin. I'll keep people posted.

8:38 pm - Exalted game?
|
|
I am thinking of running a game on the internet. Probably on Wednesdays, it'd be a dragon-blooded game. Students at the Heptagram. Perhaps one of the other schools, though. Is there any interest?
