GSL spoiler alert!
Fake Boxer (Terran) knocked out KyrixZenith (Zerg) 3-2 in a great match, especially the final game. Kyrix is the most aggressive Zerg in the world it seems, he loves banelings and is constantly attacking. He seems to despise expanding though and his constant attacking into siege tanks and bio balls in the last game, without taking a 4th base, cost him a game he should never have lost. Foxer was good though.
The other game wasn't so interesting, between HopeTorture (Terran) and NexGenius (Protoss). It was 3-1 to HopeTorture in the end but none of the games really went past the first or second push. So that makes it 3 Terrans and a Zerg in the final 4, with a Z v Z and a T v T in the other ro8 games tomorrow, which is exactly the same as last season. A lot more Zergs getting a lot further this season though but it's still Terran dominated.
SlayersBoxer vs Nada tomorrow, huge game for any old school fans (and us new schoolers who appreciate a bit of history!).

Yeah it was good thanks, met up with some people who finished work and it turned into a pretty heavy night.
Have been having my best run on the ladder yet, I've finally started beating diamond players regularily. Interestingly it's matching me against some reasonably highly rated players , between 1000-1400 and I'm tending to win more than I lose. It still won't promote me though, so I'm around a 1550 Plat at the moment!

Oh and further to our conversation on Z v Z apparently a FE is the way to go these days (guess you were ahead of the curve). Check out this thread on TL http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=163526¤tpage=1, especially posts by MrBitter from page 2 onwards. Been trying it myself with some success, just need to make sure you scout on 9 to check for any 6/10 pools.
ahh nice to see im ahead of play for once ^^
Anybody else feel like bnet is laggy tonight.. not in game, but the interface?

Really starting to enjoy 1v1. Clawing my way up through silver one match at a time! I will catch you diamond league players! 
I've given up trying.
Have a look on youtube, there are a few videos of people doing All In on Brutal that you can follow. If you dont have the same upgrades, you can still adapt the techniques.
How you tackle All In depends on whether you're facing Nydus Worms or Brood Lords, but if it's Nydus Worms, then all you really need are a lot of siege tanks and medic/marine balls
Dont remember if i have a running save at the end of All In. Will have a look though
If it's the last one you have to do then well done
. I think my last one (imho the hardest) was 'In Utter Darkness', royal pain in the proverbial... 
makes for an interesting read!

Ooh, some interesting concepts.
In terms of the calculated BO, definitely encountered 5 roach pushes, which I'm happily holding quite nicely. 7 Roach + All in with drones though, have yet to see that on the ladder. Feel like cheesing me tonight in a practice game?
In other news, my Razer DeathAdder arrived today, courtesy of OcUK

Damn marinesss!!!
Fancy some 2v2's tonight, Kar? around 10ish!
Should be able to mate

Nony/Tyler just rolled Idra 4-1 LOL
Wasn't the most exciting series, but amazing play from Nony. Really good builds that caught Idra completely off guard. Amazing gg timing in the last game by Idra.
