Hello budjus,
For a while now I've been casting SC2 replays that my friends have been sending to me for shits and giggles. I've decided to cast (no pun intended) a wider net though and try my hand at commentating on games outside the confines of my immediate SC2 buddies.
Make no mistake, though - the tagline for Shithouse Starcraft is "low level play with even lower level commentary" so if you want actually good casting and high-level play then stick to the established pros out there already doing it all over Youtube. If on the other hand you want some semi-amusing casts featuring your games or those of people you might actually know then you should send me your replays!
Keep in mind though that just because you won doesn't make it a "good" game. While I wouldn't expect you to submit a replay where you lose horribly, try to keep the following in mind:
If you have any good (as per the criteria established above) replays you should email them to ufo8mycat AT hotmail DOT com and I'll cast them when I get the chance. (Don't forget to tell me which player you are! I probably don't know your in-game name.)
So get cracking! Dig through your replay vault and send me your awesome games! Or better still - get out there and play some stellar games for me to cast!
Here's a couple of my previous replays to whet your appetite for GU nerd fame:

- Your rank doesn't matter! I don't expect nor want all the games to be super gosu diamond level. Even two evenly matched bronze players can have an interesting game!
- A game where you just rush and roflstomp a hapless opponent in three minutes isn't necessarily fun to watch or cast.
- Cheese and/or BM is entertaining! If they try to cheese you and fail embarrassingly that's great; especially if they're unhappy about it. (Accusing you of maphacking is even better).
- An epic 40 minute (real time, not SC2 "faster" time) game might be a testament to your endurance but the longest clip I can upload to Youtube is 15 mins and I would prefer to keep all replays to a maximum of two clips since it takes me ages to upload a 15 min HD clip to Youtube, so try to keep them short if you can. Exceptions will be made for games that really do have some amazing stuff take place but please try to be objective when you make that call and email me saying "omg this game goes for like two days but it's worth it!"
