"I sort of glossed over the bad parts =]. Like that time you acidentally queued your SCV to kill all the other ones at your expansion."

Lifetime Rating for {DD}Fatboy: 4.3571 |  | {DD}Fatboy again, and with the previous failure of my last BR, I'm trying another one with pictures this time (hopefully). As I as cruising through battle.net looking for an appropriate game, I finally found a game that said "1v1 NO NEWBIES". I went inside and found Idontdie as the creator. With a quick GL he started the game.
Map: Lost Temple
Players: {DD}Fatboy (Chosen Terran) vs. Idontdie (Chosen Zerg)
As I found my Command Center at the 9:00 position, I thought this game would be a pushover. TvZ, and I had the worst position. Grabbing Deon (8th Scv) I had him contruct a supply depot. When he was done, I ordered him to scout for the zerg infestion. On the second place he looked, he found creep at 3:00. Before he could see anything useful however, two sunkens quickly ended his life. Sensing a turtling zerg, I quickly stopped marine production and threw up a refinery.
Soon, a 12 zergling attack came roaring at my marines. However, my 8 marines quickly cut them down, losing 2 marines. As soon as I had enough gas, I threw up a factory, than another. When they came online, I ordered up two tanks and seige mode. I also started an acadamy. When my two tanks rolled out of the factories, I ordered them, 2 scvs, and 10 marines to start the dreaded tank push.
Once the scv started making a bunker however, a 6 zerglings and 4 lurkers stormed out of the base. They killed all my marines, and one tank. Quickly, I unseiged and run my tanks back to my base. Panicing, I started up a comsat station and an engineering bay. With 4 tanks on my ledge and a turrent, I started to feel secure.
While I was slowly building up, no counter-attack came. Feeling suspicious, I scanned his base. Hm... a hive, hatchery, hydra den, spawning pool, queen's nest and nydus canal. Sensing a free win, I sent another tank push crew, consisting of 3 scvs, 9 tanks, 4 firebats and 12 marines. When they arriaved at the choke, I seiged up and started making turrents and bunkers. As soon as my first bunker finished, an shitload of cracklings came bursting out. Dumping out the marines in the bunker and throwing in the firebats, I killed the lings, losing only 2 tanks. I quickly unsieged and threw all my men up the ramp. When I seiged up, another shitload of lings came. This time, only 2 tanks survived. As my two tanks started pounding on his buildings, I hastily threw more firebats and tanks at the zerg base. Right when the hive was about to fall, a HUGE swarm of mutas (about 36) attacked my tanks. Cursing, I started constructing turrents arund my base. But it was no use. His mutas flew in and destroyed my base in seconds. I conceded and asked for vision. He gave it to me and I noticed his spire in the bottom right expansion. Tricky bastard :) | | Battle Shots! |

Starting the second tank push.
The tanks shelling the zerg.
The mutas demolishing the tanks, and thus the game.
