Sometimes when you create a game on StarCraft, a few people will join… but you want to wait a little bit longer for more people to play. After a while, you realize that nobody else is joining your game, so what do you do? You probably say remake, or rm, and you cancel the game that you just made so that you can create the same thing again. However, you don’t have to do that!
One way to get more people to join your game if you want a full house is to just close all the open slots, and then reopen the slots again. This is called refreshing your game.
Another way to refresh your game, is to just tell someone in your game to leave and come back. You can tell him/her to rejoin or rj. This method of refreshing is faster and better if there are a lot of empty slots and you don’t feel like opening/closing them all.
You know the game list on Battle.net is always updating. It’s showing the newest games that were just created, which will keep on pushing your game to the back of the list. By refreshing your game, it will help bring your game up to the front of the list so more people will see it again, thus you’ll get more people to join.
These 2 methods of refreshing work on Battle.net, and also in Local Area Network mode. Next time you are waiting for more people to join your StarCraft game, try refreshing it!

Just a video of a few Protoss taking on 400 zerglings and 200 hydras! Unfortunatly the Protoss did not win though. Yes, the Protoss are fully upgraded and the Zerg aren’t.

To some people, it may seem obvious where StarCraft maps go. For others, it might not be so obvious. So for those who don’t know, StarCraft maps belong in this directory:
C:\Program Files\Starcraft\maps
More folders can be created in that location for organization and neatness. If you don’t care about organizing your maps, then just put them in the download folder. That’s where the downloaded maps go when you play on Battle.net.

If you are behind a router/gateway with another computer and you tried playing StarCraft together with other people on Battle.net, you might have noticed that it was really laggy and unplayable. To fix this problem, all you have to do is change the ports for one of the computers on your network. The default port for Battle.net is 6112 and it lags because it can’t handle more than one computer in that port.
So all you have to do is go to your router/gateway’s Port Forward page and set one of your computers to use a port between 6113 and 6119 (UDP, not TCP). After you forward a port for one of your computers, you need to open the Registry Editor for that computer. To do this, click Start, Run, and press enter after you type regedit. In the left side of the registry editor, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Battle.net\Configuration. Now click Edit > New DWORD Value, and name it Game Data Port. Double click that value that you’ve just created, click Decimal in the Base area, and type the port that you forwarded for your computer in ‘Value data’ (6114 for example), and press OK.
Your computers sharing the same router/gateway should now be able to play on Battle.net with other people with no lag!
