There's an undetectable trade-window exploit in the wild now. I recommend avoiding trades with strangers.

self-post, no karma. not trying to start a debate about the policy, just wanted to warn people.

bottom line: there are trade exploits in the wild that do not rely on the old quick-switching and relying-on-your-victim-to-not-notice.

If I manage to scout a [likely] cloaked banshee production while I'm still on one base and in the middle of a standard MM build, what's my best course of action to get sufficient detection and defense up at my main?

At this point I'm usually rallying my army to a forward point nearer to the opponent's base, and don't have a lot of defense at my main. Do I pull my marines back and build up my energy for scans? Leave my army in place but set the new rally point near my CC and build turrets?

Since this is how the last occurences played out- let's assume that I've scouted it just as the tech lab is going down, and therefore I have only the 3 minutes for my oppon

TvT. terran opponent controls your natural with a few marines in early game; opens 3-7 siege tanks at the bottom of your main's ramp before you expand to your natural. Uses vikings/scans for visibility.

I'm usually in an MM bio build when this happens.

I was able to get 2 hidden expos and mass BCs to win (because this particular opponent didn't scout properly), while holding back his sieges with my own, but I've had this happen before where I wasn't so fortunate.

I can provide a replay if my explanation isn't clear, but I didn't want to distract from the main questions with the plethora of mistakes I made trying to fight out. :)

I wrote a reply to a comment on the thread about the Conde Nast spinoff rumors and it got lengthy. I figured it (and some bonus thoughts) might be better as a submission so everyone could weigh in.

jedberg refuted the article's theory in no uncertain terms but I have other concerns.

Conde Nast is undoubtedly monitoring the media and the rumors. We have an opportunity to send a message to the higher ups.

When we leave quoted grammatical or spelling errors intact, we add sic as an indication. Other than bracketing [corrected segments], is there a proper way to note when a direct quote has been modified for spelling and grammar?

[If the spelling or grammar part of the correction matters, I'm mostly curious about spelling corrections.]

..something like a combination of how Slashdot's mod points work and the current system? I haven't spent time refining the idea, because I know it's not going to be implemented with reddit's current roadmap.

I think it would be neat if I could upvote/downvote the way we currently do, but we also had a limited number of 'mod points' (to borrow Slashdot's term) to help particularly contributing content to float to the top.
