I promised to meet some friends at BW3 for cheap wings140.85 said:Lots of crazy times tonite on granary, gravel pit, dustbowl and well. Many thanks the medics!Why'd you leave so early Puyo?
Plus I was really sucking at playing last night and got frustrated lol.I don't understand how the voting system works. After every vote it usually reverts back to a level we just played (hydro, 2fort, etc). Why doesn't the map with the most votes win? Is there a minimum vote count?

there's a mininum win of 35%, otherwise it'll follow the rotation. Some people may have voted on the same map to continue.
thats also my problem

I don't think that's what he's talking about. I think what happens sometimes is that you'll be playing say cp_granary and no map will win the vote but the next map ends up being cp_dustbowl even though you just played it before cp_granary. I could have sworn something similar happened to me last night.Icy said:

Can we get a game going the East server? I've got nothing to do for the next 2 hours.
Icy said:
I did a quick edit and left more info than I should have.
My original post was asking if you could have branching votes. The next scheduled map or. Like if 2Fort is the next scheduled map, then the vote is 2Fort or ________. If Granary is next, Granary or _______. So that there's always an alternative to the scheduled map rotation and it has a real chance of winning. But there's flaws in that method too when I think about it. So I think the broken method of nothing winning is better.
1) Download VTFedit here: http://nemesis.thewavelength.net/index.php?p=41
2) With VTFedit, Import your own .JPG,.BMP, etc... and convert it to a .VTF file (Valve Texture File)
3) Now place the .VTF file to this exact location (you'll probably have to create some folder manually but it shows exactly like this):
<your dir>\Steam\steamapps\<your username>\team fortress 2\tf\materials\VGUI\logos
4) To fixe the quickview appearing blank copy the same .VTF also here (you'll probably have to create the UI folder manually but it shows exactly like this):
<your dir>\Steam\steamapps\<your username>\team fortress 2\tf\materials\VGUI\logos\UI
5) Ingame, go to the options and click import the spray and browse for it in the \logos folder (not the UI folder!) and validate. (this will create a VMT file near your VTF)
Remember the hight and width of your pictures must match theses pixel sizes only (16, 32, 64,128 or 256)
To resume, your .VTF must reside in the last \logos and also \UI folder where you copied it manually, then don't forget to do the step 5), the spray now appear correctly in the list.

I'm trying to intimidate the opposition with my new spray. As we move forward on offense, I place it on walls of newly captured points, so that our foes see the beast slowly advancing towards them, opening its maw. On defense, it guards the points, terrifying away all enemies or destroying them with its power. Sometimes, I place it at wall leading from the spawn point, so that my teammates will be inspired by its majesty, or terrified by the thought of failing such a mighty creature.
We all know what the "B" stands for.
Though the enemy eventually captured this point, I noted that they had to divert their eyes from the terrible sight to avoid being struck down by its power.
An intrigued teammate is awestruck by the visage.
Out of fear of its wrath, he wisely decides to leave quickly to avoid seeming irreverent.
And finally, the most dramatic example of its burning eyes striking into the heart of the adversary.
Behold, the foolish foe. He aims his minigun with glee, paying no heed to the great guardian adorning our temple.
He fired at the window above the Great One's head... not one minigun bullet hit the face, but the wall surrounding it was pockmarked with holes; as though the Great One's incredible power had simply pushed them aside.
But a desecration had still occurred. And the transgression had to be punished.
In an instant, its fury was unleashed, from out of nowhere.
Note the smile about his face. It is because, in its final moment of complete and utter annihilation, his soul saw the face of God.
Out of fear of its wrath, he wisely decides to leave quickly to avoid seeming irreverent.
Why fear Bishoptl? He doesn't ban shit on muh servers. I'm a ban happy mofo on them bitches.

The map cycle definitely gets messed up. At the end of cp_dustbowl, no map won the vote so it said cp_granary was next but instead it changed to tc_hydro.
CrookedRain

What? The next map really was tc_hydro after cp_dustbowl. Unless you really changed the map cycle up, it didn't follow the map cycle correctly.
CrookedRain

What is the current map cycle then? It has changed to cp_granary after cp_dustbowl before with no winning vote I believe.

Ugh I'm in the same boat as you Joe. The new games are tempting to drag me away from TF2 but I won't let themJoeFu said:
Sorry I've been away from it for awhile. I got sucked back into World of Warcraft. I'm trying to get through the Dark Portal since I've had the Burning Crusade expansion since it came out and still haven't hit 60. I'm at 54 and closing in on it, but I'm going to take a TF2 break again soon.

:lol I think I went through a little bit less than halfway through. And I just got into the Mythos beta and I've been playing that too. And I want to pick up Zack & Wiki and Front Mission.WhatRuOn said:I've had WiC for about a week now, and I've only put 20 minutes into it tops...
We should definitely start scheduling a day to play now.
Pyro and Heavy seem to be the only two classes where people don't IMMEDIATELY start running the fuck away when they see the flames coming towards them.speedpop said:
I remember this one match on ctf_respect-b4, I had grabbed the intelligence and was running out, and suddenly five guys or six guys, all of different classes, jumped me from all directions, surrounding me in a narrow corner that constricted movement on all sides.
Do not corner a Pyro, especially if you end up cornering yourself. Yeah, I died, but I took every single one of those guys out in a bonfire of players. After I was finally dead, and half of their team lay burning in a hallway, one of the victims actually came on the mic and said, "Goddamn, Crushed." :lol
I believe it happened several more times on that map, especially when I had a good medic backing me up.
Ok I'm picking this up tonight. How big is the download? I should have started it this morning but I was late getting ready for work.
Also, please be gentle. I'll throw "noob" in my name so everyone knows to not shoot me right away and try to jump in front of my bullets as much as possible, at least for the first few weeks.
