  Note: I recently tried this again and found that it did not work. I will update it when I can figure out what is going wrong.

     Does it annoy you that in StarCraft battle.net games, you cannot use all the game types? Well, it annoys me, and that is what matters.

     To get around this, create a LAN game, of the type you want to play on battle.net, make an opponent (If the type isn't Team Melee, Team Free For All, or Team Capture The Flag you'll need to have at least two computers connected on a LAN network and then join the game you created on the other computer) and start the game. When the game starts, save it as something you can remember. I would saved it as (If it was a Team Melee) "Team Melee". You can now exit the game and logon to battle.net. Create a game and select the game you saved from your starcraft\maps\saves\ directory. Once the game is created you can select cancel. Now create another game. This time you should see all the specifics you entered last time except for two things. First, it shows what map you used last, not the save file and, if you entered a password last time, it won't show that either. Now look under the game type box. It should be whatever game type the save you used was. In my case, Team Melee.
 

     If this didn't work, please email me saying so. Send it to smm@mse.com. Please try to avoid using words like man or dude in the subject.
