"At home four zealots came wandering past my choke point, took one look at the wallin, asked T_Mac for danger pay, didn't get it, and contented themselves with scouting my natural and then going on strike for better wages. I think they might be still there, waving signs and chanting 'For Hire!'

Alright, so that pun sucked. Work with me here people. It's past midnight."

wow, a text only. Approved. Doesn't look bad for a first report. Will rate later.

Crappy Game, but the report was pretty well done for a first.

Thx, I attempted, but hey, it was mostly for fun. I'll write some more, I was surprised how fun it was to write it.

read it. Nice first report. Have a look at some higher rated stuff here for ideas on how to improve.

not bad for a first.

Not too bad, it was a nice diversion in between classes. Really need to fix the typos, learn some html, and improve the writing some.

All in all, not bad for a first attempt. Keep submitting.

Conclusion - I need to learn how to write, or something.

Not bad for a 1st - 5.

#12 Chris[156169]
astound-64-85-237-46.ca.astound.net
Not THAT bad but...

When you start out your report with "This may sux, and i kno dere iz no pix and i rote this cuz i was board", it takes all the fun out of reading it. When you conclude with basically the same thing, it reminded us that you had no confidence in your report.

Proofread. Spellcheck. Don't bore us with little details.

thanks for the constructive Critism SnK-Arcbound... And to chris, I was jsut warning you, incase you didn't want to read something like this... and I didn't spell it like that in there, I'm kind of taking that as a personal attack, but I'm going to leave it at that...
#16 SnK-Arcbound[156177]
evrtwa1-ar11-4.14.88.79.evrtwa1.dsl-verizon.net
Yes you are sarcastic about my critism but then when some REAL ones come around you say it is a personal attack... He changed the spelling to enphasize his point, spell correctly and don't start you BR like that.
#17 Asmodues[156178]
fltg-dslttc1-30.fltg.net
Arcbound, you're being offensive in the extreme. He just wrote his first report, and you're practically flaming him for warning people that 1) it's his first report and 2) it's text only. This is his first report; obviously, he's not going to be confident about it.
Grow up, Arc.

(Nice first report, YoMomma. You've got writing down somwhat, now work on the fancification.)


#18 maareek[156179]

When Chris insults you personally, you'll know it. His criticism was constructive, and very true. He knows what it takes to have a good BR and pulls no punches, I love it when he gives his opinion; especially on my stuff.

That was tame compared to some of the things I've seen him post (such as the one where he posted one word sentences for the whole comment to prove his point in one of my BR's, I laughed for quite a while over that one).

If you're going to produce works you need a tough skin, and a good eye for what advice is useful and what isn't.

#21 Woah[156182]

:O I guess I´ll be next one :P, trying to learn some more stuff before slapping it up here though, especially dling the trial versions to edit the pics for the BR and learning once and for all how to put alt-text in the report :) btw, nice read for text-only, nooby but funny as well, keep it up :D
#22 darkslayer633[156183]
crbk2145.nf.sympatico.ca
well for starters every starcraft battle report makes news.

secondly i liked it nice report, oviousally as you said pics would be nice, you need some spellcheck.

and you most definatly need more cofidence, not to the point of cockyness but you need a confidence boost majorly.

Good report. well done and keep it up.

Btw:<<As a sidenote, I made news at sc.org! Yay!>> i actually got to know from there about ur report. ;) and i said good things about ur report.......that should help u get more people to criticise or suggest stuff to u. Good luck!

i like the idea of a battle repot, it could help me draw stratigies from your errors (that sounded bad). But seriously dude! You need to use the spell check!

that was actually pretty good! never really read battlereports... starcraft.org thinks it's worth reading.

Unfortunately, due to my poor communication skills and my insensitivity, I look like a bit of a jerk, epsecially on the internet.

I don't know you, and therefore will not insult you personally.

I've been to this site for years now, and I haven't even considering submitting a report because I don't have the guts to. At least you have a 5.0

Be more positive.
#31 YoMomma[156195]
68-168-110-206.lndnnh.adelphia.net
I'm positive, I just didn't want people running into my first br expecting it to be this amazing thing... I have a bit more confidence now, after all this. It seems most people don't think tis to bad, so thats good. However, if anyone knows how I can figure out all the html and stuff to make the background and pics etc. that would be nice, since I have no clue at all.
#32 Woah[156196]

Read the "guide" section @ br.com, that´s what I did and learned the stuff about the images and some editing and a lot of HTML (altough most of the guides talk about how to put things together in the best way and not really how to do things :P but I guess the "help" part of the programs is there for that).

step one to becoming a good battlereporter: listen to Christ
#34 Desert Demon[156200]

step two would be Chris. God I can't type that name without a t for some reason...

Dag, you scare me. (shudders) Pretty good for a first try, YoMomma. I like your name, btw. (hehehe) It was funny, just cut down on the swearing a little, and you have my vote. I would rate this a 7, an 8 if you lose the swear words. Your writing is pretty good, I could just see it when the zerglings and hydras attacked those goons at the end. I'm not going to ask for pictures unless I learn how to put em in, cus that wouldn't be fair. :D Keep up the good work, and look for my first report by tommorow night!
#36 YoMomma[156246]
68-168-110-206.lndnnh.adelphia.net
Alright, the help things helped me a bit, but how do I amke the backgrounds different colors and stuff, cause it didn't help me there at all. Like do I just do everything in Photoshop or something?
#37 YoMomma[156249]
68-168-110-206.lndnnh.adelphia.net

good job dude, don't worry about the negative comments or people whining about pics. I'd like to see their first reports. I wonder, though, why the dropout right before the attack???
#40 YoMomma[156700]
68-168-110-206.lndnnh.adelphia.net
He dropped cause he got a phone call.
