Hey guys, just wanted to pop in and say thanks for the rounds these past days. Been wanting to get into this game but never really gave it time, so sorry for noobing it up. 
I know that of right now, I am generally silent, but I'm fixing that soon (I appreciate the work of the team and medics, as I can't be that great of one
). it seems that a lot of my hardware been failing on me. My mic went out and shortly after my TV of 6 years died as well, and now it seems my mouse is acting up too.

And how does that make you feel, n8BitMan?
Any GAF members planning on taking part in the ETF2L Highlander Community Challenge?

How many Sciz's can we clone and how many serious pants can GAF afford?! :/
I think if I had to go with what I'm best at, it would be soldier or pyro.
Or, if everyone else really sucks at sniping, sniper. But I'm only randomly really good at sniper. Most of the time I'm below average. ):
I'm not a bad medic either I guess.
I used to be awesome at demoman but I rarely play it anymore. O:

From reading the description it looks like it's not really aimed for pro teams. That doesn't mean that there won't be sandbaggers though. P
Sounds like fun, but I'm not sure if my schedule will work with it. Has there been any word on the timing of the EU tourneys?
Oh god, I just realized that pl_frontier still isn't on the server. I'll try to get it added late tonight. Also I need to spend some time with swiftwater to see if I can get it to work. It's so retarded that just dropping in the maps and updating the maplist.txt won't simply make it work. Instead it crashes the server.

More maps are nice, but my wishlist for the server would be as follows:Javaman said:From reading the description it looks like it's not really aimed for pro teams. That doesn't mean that there won't be sandbaggers though.

1. Auto random 4-5 map vote each map that works, so admins don't have to do it.
2. Auto balance if it's like 9v7.
3. Votescramble option even if it's only two rounds. Some maps like hydro seem to go on forever even with unbalanced teams.
4. Map nominate command, or at least rtv.
Thanks for running it!

#1 and #4 *should* be working but aren't due to bugs in mani. (Still waiting on help on their forum). I'm going to try setting the round limits back to the default to see if that is what's causing the bug.
#2 is conscious decision I made to help people get to the teams/players that they want to be with. I can change it to 1 if you guys want though. 99% of the time it isn't a problem and usually someone from the strong team switches over manually to balance things out a bit.
#3 isn't supported by mani-mod from what I've seen. It's definitely not in the admin menu. I read somewhere that it's built into source with the command "mp_scrambleteams 1" but causes the server to crash when it's running mani. I hadn't tried it yet though but it's worth a shot.
Glad you like itJavaman said:
It's my wallpaper too so it's not all time lost on an elaborate joke~did you see the bonus hat?
What about your name?? WHAT ABOUT YOUR LEG D:Twig said:
And so will I! I would be sniper preferably :>boonoo said:
edit: They say European timezones which might be an issue btw, & up to 14 people can be registered, so multiple classes *can* be done on a match by match basis if necessary.
All my best classes are already spoken for but I'd love to get in on this Highlander shiz.
Medic / demo / soldier|pyro
would be my order of preference, but I guess we have like a month to sort it all out. Actually, these are supposed to be teams of 6 right? No reason why we couldn't make 2 or 3 teams to enter. Edit: Site says 14 player teams but isn't Highlander mode 6v6?
And just so we're clear you guys realize this is Euro based and will take place on Euro servers right?

Orellio said:Oh I guess I was getting my wires crossed. I haven't actually played Highlander or any kind of competitive TF2 match so I wouldn't know
So anyway if it's 9 to a team are the extra 5 just alternates or what?
There are no extras. There are 9 classes, so are all on the field at any given time.
Boonoo: Scout
Twig: Soldier / Pyro / Sniper(if no one else takes it)
Blizzard: Heavy / Medic / Pyro
snack: Demoman
rar: Medic / Demoman / Soldier
Orellio: Medic / Demo / Soldier|Pyro
Cheeto: Spy
JoeFu: ????????????????????????
Javaman: Engy(?)
So assuming everyone's schedules work out, we have a team now. O:
Twig: Soldier / Pyro / Sniper(if no one else takes it)
Blizzard: Heavy / Medic / Pyro
snack: Demoman
rar: Medic / Demoman / Soldier
Orellio: Medic / Demo / Soldier|Pyro

If you haven't seen the splitscreen version of the Law-abiding Engineer, it's worth watching:

Also, Valve linked to that guy's fake engineer update and ran over his bandwidth. :lol
