laugh now... but when im rich you'll all jealous you didnt get one too

Doing the same with the WarOwl sticker, already worth 3 times the amount of when I got it.
And holy shit at chessnut's graph!

Decided to give Faceit a try. 1) Took forever to queue up for game. 2) Had an asshole griefer who would just do whatever **griefers really piss me off more than hax0rz** and 3) 2nd half, everytime I saw an enemy, I would get massive frame drops. Quite a shitty experience I must say.

Why do people say that the Deathadder 2013 is the standard as opposed to the Deathadders that were released before then? Is there some sort of sensor issue?

I would just do CEVO honestly. I'm not convinced that even at the higher end of the ladder FACEITs playerbase in NA is any good.

Is CEVO free?

Yeah. It has stat tracking too if you care about that stuff. Noone seems to get huffy about "low rws" players like ESEA though.. people just play. Has a similar problem with leavers but there are some decent players you'll find on there from time to time.

Sounds good, I should try CEVO at some point. I don't have a team though so that's the biggest draw why I haven't done that yet.
 
Lol man, I really dont like getting paired up with clans. Was carrying the game but got kicked last round because I didn't clutch the final round (which would have been an ace). Bleh lol

you can't really play with friends on CEVO anyway. I mean you can, but it randomizes teams based on their system so there's a chance it would just mix people up regardless.

Hey guys, been a while since I've kept up with the thread (seems to boost up in popularity more with tournaments)

For people making MM groups, do you have a steam group for that? What region are most people here from?

1. There's a group but no one uses it. We just look at our friends list and invite people
2. Probably West or midwest/central for NA.

Well that's out the window :/ Maybe some EU people will one day drop by.

Curious on one matter, are people generally happy with how they ping to MM servers? I know they opened up a new cluster in (Atlanta?) Me and most of my friends ping really badly West-EU most of the time... We've actually been trying faceit past few days and there's at least an improvement in how it's balanced. Playing 70 vs 10 ping kinda sucks for peeking or being peeked.

Needs some more west coast players. I yearn for the day where I get better ping than 100.

next time we get an NA lobby i'll force west servers.

ping doesn't really bother me, at least at our ranks. whenever I play with impact it's important though.

For the most part yeah. I usually get about 70, and its not a problem. Once it's in the 80s I really notice that shit.

I should do that too. For unknowns sake.

I'm happy with my 15 ping on the EU servers, but then I join some random MM game with those Swedish people in it and they all got those crazy low 5 ping. D: So jelly.

Impact once joined my game when playing on the EU server. He never accepted my invites again... ;_;

Have about 50 hours in this game now, 6 or so competitive wins, 8 played I think. Would like to play with fellow gaffers. Any chance I can jump in some lobbies?

I'm always up for a game. I'm still green too (nova 3).

So I was playing with some friends and the game was going good. We were up 11-0 and I was topfragging with about 25 frags when they start joking about me getting overwatched. They convince me to just go mid and try to kill them all.

so this is what happened.

Yeah, on the receiving end of this, it's gotta hurt. But honestly, blind shooting AWPs through smoke is something that's done at higher levels, you just happened to connect for a 2K.
If you had hacks on you'd be spraying into the smoke with your Tec-9 tho and get an ace, cmon son.

Shitstain, you live in Cali? You should play more often with my non-gaf crew.

Baby - Cali
D Jones - Colorado
Snes (sneeze) - Seattle


FYI: we are not a very good team. But udiie thinks d Jones is funny for some reason.

Hit Supreme after 460 hours and ~160 comp wins (not sure about accurate number of wins, brother's old acc). I've never played a fps which has me trying to improve my play everyday before this but god damn, this is addicting.

Why is it so hard for these casting groups to put a little something on the screen to let you know who won the previous maps.

edit: I made 'MULTIENTRY' one of the rules, yet the modbot still says if you include more than 1 game you will be blocked from entering. Is that OK or did I miss up somewhere?
