Sometimes when I get bored on bnet, I screw around with pubbies. My usual game is Phantom. As soon as the game begins, I declare one person a phantom and rush him. If he's Phantom, then we win. If not, I apologize to the player for killing them and leave. The funnest part is convincing the other players your not the phantom, and that your chosen phantom is. Sometimes people attack you, sometimes people attack your enemy.
Saying HEY FAG U SUK in the lobby has a 66% ban rate.
I've also found something fun to do in rigged versions of Sand Castle Wars. You can see it in the attached replay.
Anyone else like to play around with pubbies? What do you do?

Attached replay?
And yes, from your edit, they do work.
None.
The attachment doesn't seem to be working for me. I don't know what to do.

How about editing your first post and under "Add Attachments", browse for your replay file.
None.
In the real sand castle wars, I would just rush vults, worked almost every time. Nothing teaches better scv micro than L2.
I'll join an RP type RPG (Like dungeons&dragons) and wait for Mr. X to reveal himself to me. Mr. X is the guy who won't stop bragging about his impossible life. He is some how a jock/hacker/rocker/rapper/rico-swuavae/millionare, but for some reason spends all his time playing SC RP's, and he's very good at them for "barely ever playing". Feed his ego for about 5-10 minutes like the bullshit he says is the word of god, "Jeez, my dick's only like 4 inches", "Do girls really smell good?", "What's sex like?", "Woah! you hacked the FBI! I can barely get my computer to start up." Wait till you get to the first boss and be sure to like him take plenty of hits. Kill him on his way back to heal, and camp his respawn. argue with him about nothing and listen to him cry until he eventually leaves. That's how you fucking troll.
Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
