Note: This tutorial will NOT teach you how to get your mom to PAY for Starcraft 2 -- it will only teach you how to get your mom to allow you to purchase the game in the first place. While it is possible to manipulate your parents into paying for the game as well, it is beyond the scope of this tutorial.
This tutorial is intended for those aged 13 through 45 whose parents will not allow them to purchase new video games.
First, you must disappoint your parents for the previous couple of years. There are a number of good ways to accomplish this, including failing fourth and fifth grade, failing sixth grade, getting arrested, getting enough speeding tickets to lose your license, drug addictions.
In order for this to work, you must be completely sure your parents are fed up with your existence, and are at their wits end. If you move past step one too early, you'll have to start over and waste another couple of years in fifth grade and jail.
After you've successfully made an incompetent ass of yourself, you must accomplish one thing. This one thing should be related to whatever terrible thing you chose for step one. For example, if you got held back in 5th grade for a couple years, pass 6th grade after only 2. If you got arrested for bank robbery, after you're released from jail, go into a bank, but this time, do not rob it. Instead, give the teller a compliment and then a hug. Tellers like hugs.
Your parents should now be in shock from realizing you do have a heart, and you're not completely incompetent and disgraceful. Their emotional state should now be unusually wobbly, and they will agree to anything you ask. You now have a slim window of opportunity to request permission to purchase Starcraft 2. Do so now.
I'm having trouble with this. After I create the photon cannon it has no weapon missile... what did I do wrong? I tried duplicating it again and I even checked with the original photon cannon unit. Someone said to look up actors but I don't know what that is. Any help appreciated.
But you have to keep behaving good; otherwise, your mom will ground you. And believe me, its a WAY better to DON'T HAVE THE GAME than to play just a few times and have your starcraft taken back by your mom.

Great tut, thanks!
Wrong places. This tutorial is dealing with behavior, not actor

Tried this, doesn't work on Korean parents.
What does work on Korean parents or any Asian parents for that matter is giving them (pocket) money. They will never bother you.
2 - One week before they release the game you show your mom all your worst grades.
3 - Search on google for a newspaper article that interviews a psychology saying good things about videogames and how it improves the kids' intelligence (there's lots of them on internet). Print it out and leave it on the kitchen's table.
4 - When the game releases, you do the laundry, clean the house, wash the dishes, and show to your mom all your best grades. Then, you ask her to have your christmas presents a little bit earlier. If she is still saying no, tell her that she does not recognize your hard effort (which is true).
Though in my case it would have to be GF, not mom.
Why use triggers when you can do it with a behavior. Just copy the "good" behavior and change it so that it modifies the "target lets you have StarCraft 2" property.

My mom says I can but my license is still suspended from the drug addiction. Fuck. :(

@zifoon:
I thought Korean parents force their children to play Starcraft.
Arcade, OneTwo -- I haven't been able to use the editor since the beta went down. It sucks. Otherwise, I'd try and help.
There's a short version of this strategy.
1 - Hide all your school tests and quizes.
2 - One week before they release the game you show your mom all your worst grades.
3 - Search on google for a newspaper article that interviews a psychology saying good things about videogames and how it improves the kids' intelligence (there's lots of them on internet). Print it out and leave it on the kitchen's table.
4 - When the game releases, you do the laundry, clean the house, wash the dishes, and show to your mom all your best grades. Then, you ask her to have your christmas presents a little bit earlier. If she is still saying no, tell her that she does not recognize your hard effort (which is true).
@RodrigoAlves: Go
What a childish thought. Get grounded, then play to your hearts content!~ After all, the fool grounded you to your room! hahahahahahahha =D
You are all amateurs, look.
Just go buy the game and play it. When your parents ask if you secretly bought this game; just tell them you already had this game.
Doesn't work if your parents are gamers though. But if they are gamers then they probably play this game too!
Is there any way to do this through Triggers?
Though in my case it would have to be GF, not mom.
Why use triggers when you can do it with a behavior. Just copy the "good" behavior and change it so that it modifies the "target lets you have StarCraft 2" property.
