This is true, but then sometimes you grow past that and accept the realization that really, what else ARE you going to do with your life? Everything people do is a diversion to distract them from the fact that their lives in and of themselves are really boring. Watching tv, going to the movies, playing ping pong, playing video games, playing computer games on the internet with other people, building models--- most people spend their entire lives trying to pass the time in frivolous ways.
Once you accept that, and are peachy with that, then you can go right back to spending endless amounts of time trying to become an elite supermelee fighter on a game that was released a dozen years ago, and you can do it without having your world fall apart around you.

We are the Ur-Quan Kohr-Ah. Our nature, the fulfillment of our fate requires your destruction. You are filth. It is now your time to be cleansed.

Wow. That was really depressing... I'm going to go dig myself a hole out in the woods and sit in it for a while. While I'm there, I will cry and think about the worthlessness of my life. How could I spend so many days and nights doing homework or watching reality TV when Star Control II has always been there for me? Why couldn't I be there for SC2 when it needed me most? It was always there for me. I'm so bad at melee, and it's all my fault! If only there was a way to turn back time, so that all the free time I ever had could be filled up by supermelee... if only I could right the ship that went so wrong long ago... *sighs*

yes, that is really depressing. The way I see it though, there's no such thing as wasting your life. Playing ping-pong and going to the movies are not ways to pass the time. That is life. Monks spend their entire lives in search of inner peace, sometimes going for weeks just staring and sitting in one place. There's no argument from me that what they're doing is a waste. As long as what you are doing makes you happy, isn't that all there is to it? If you don't like what you're doing, then, yes, you might say you are wasting your time, but only the time you could have used to be happy.

You guys are going waay off topic here . How soon do kohr-ah defat ur-quan? I remeber that one of of my games ended like that when I was playing the old sc2 years ago. Is there something in the game that influences how fast the war is over? I think I remember someone saying that it would be dependent on the technological level of the player's precursor vessel, but I'm not sure. Or is it at some pre-fixed year? What do you think?

Fot or not?

As far as I know, the Kohr-Ah defeat the Ur-Quan at a certain date, but this date can be pushed back a year or two by decreasing the Kohr-Ah's numerical superiority (i.e. killing thousands of them). You can't really do this by yourself; you'll have to get someone else to do it.

We did. You did. Yes we can. No.

Well, such things have been done before in real life... like the two frigates the British sent to China took out their entire fleet. Okay, it's two ships instead of one, but you get the idea.
