You guys are a bunch of prejudiced douche bags... you're not better than anyone because you've got the "smarter" accent.

Variety is the spice of life, you fascist tards.

I live in Washington State and I know when I went to Alaska, everything was mostly the same. In Minnesota on the the other hand, it was different.

I took the quiz and got neutral. I have no problem understanding people with accents though.

I don't think there is a "neutral" accent, just a "standard" set by a certain educated accent, IE, like how High German (the modern standard) is just a northern German dialect.



None.

I'm neutral, apparently. However, I hope the Southern Accent decays and dies.



None.

I'm from milwaukee*. We call it soda, not pop. A bubbler, not a water fountain. Other than that, we are straight.
I despise southern accents. It's just annoying.

No. There's a neutral accent. Why it's from America, and not England, I'll never know.

Accourding to the quiz, I have a North Central accent.

In actuality, it's a very subtle New Zealand.

How is there a "neutral" accent? You pronounce things a certain way that differs from other speakers of your language, that is an accent whether or not a government or official body recognizes it as the official pronunciation.

Norwengli... Ehm, Northeastern.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

I speak neutral English like my German school taught me.

I got Canadian, so the test is probably right.

However, some test questions were very vague. And besides, I don't pronounce it "aboot". You're thinking about the far East Coast. Like Nova Scotia. :P
Nova Scotia and Newfy are side by side. :P

I think we can all agree that Brooklyn English and British English are both abominations.
some british girls sound extremely sexy...
Indeed. Anyone know Eva from Red Alert 3? :D rrrrawwwrr :w00t:

I am actually wondering what accent I have. It should be german accent english but I was told that I sound a little american. That's probably because I (not knowingly) copy the accents I hear in movies. That's why I voted Northern (TV anchor).
You're supposed to take the quiz.

Relatively ancient and inactive

Devilesk phailed.

Actually, it's strange I have a northeastern accent. I learned English in California, and moved to NYC when I was fluent.

NudeRaider -- Oh_Man
Oh_Man shouted: NudeRaider yeh thts straight up cheating
the mutas yes, the wraiths probably not. Have you even watched the video? ;)
[12:56 pm]
Oh_Man -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating
[12:24 pm]
Oh_Man -- arty's done another vid. he's also announced he's going to organise showmatches with pro, with NO maphacks, so we can see its actual capabilities
[10:09 am]
NimoStar -- It can by playing the same map thousands of times. It is similar to AI speedrunning games
[02:30 am]
Symmetry -- I dreamed about that as a kid. The idea of a computer capable of analyzing a starcraft map and calculating the fastest possible way to hit the victory condition
[02:29 am]
Symmetry -- But can AI beat my custom maps?
[2026-9-22. : 12:32 pm]
Oh_Man -- yea APM vs eAPM
[2026-9-22. : 8:48 am]
NimoStar -- plus most of the human APM is just spam clicking APM inflation
[2026-9-22. : 8:47 am]
NimoStar -- the thing with the "*12" thing is completely misleading. The AI isn't using two control groups, it can use each of those actions to command a single unit individually and issue different commands to each single unit.
