I get the feeling people took my "soldier is the only viable class on Nucleus" joke seriously.

Ever since the Cow Mangler came out I'm always Soldier on Nucleus. Unlimited ammo and great places to zap the point with the charged blast, lol.

Hence my joke. Soldiers were already annoying on Nucleus. Now they are even MORE annoying.
Zerokku said:
Hah seriously. I'm in the middle of a bit of a love affair with the heavy, but I will not play as it on Nucleus. Too open. Too many snipers. Too vulnerable.
That Saxton Hale action figure is really awesome.
And I got a hat drop tonight!
Edit: Just realized that Thundermountain just took us like 50 minutes to get through. I know it's not news that it is a long map, but damn. I just looked at the clock and thought it was like 20 minutes ago.

So yeah, about that Viaduct match after most people left...
DAMN.
Please don't limit my favorite pocket class. So what if they totally ruin games sometimes?
That was me. I was a bit shocked at first, but I knew if anyone could pull off an uberwhip it would be you. Earlier I ubered Pangloss as an engy and he killed an opposing medic purely through intimidation.
It was an interesting night for me despite how few matches I got in.

Where's my awesome screenshot Zerokku? Thanks for all the heals chesskid, until Yeef's stupid coding switched me in the middle of a life and I had to repeatedly kill you. Can't remember who the medic was on Thundermountain, but we pretty much sealed the victory with uberwhip.

I didn't kill anyone when I was in RED, and I'm very sure that I shot to Wagosto's and your head three times each, but the damn thing never registered the shots!Acerac said:
Unlike with Fallengorn, who I killed a few times and I shot next to the head almost everytime.

I hate that specific maps continue to fail to load. Is it a Mac thing?

agreed. best looking hat I've seen for Pyro. He needs it, as 90% of Pyro hats look terrible.Exuro said:

Only found 2 hats in between the time hat drops began and last week, and now have found 2 more in the past few days. Geisha Boy the other day, now the Stately Steel Toe. Just wish I could paint it pink, have two different pink paint cans but the only hats I want to paint (the Stately Steel Toe and Modest Pile of Hat) are unpaintable. Why Valve why?!?

never had a hat drop ever. All hats I got were either promotional; item that came with the games or event.

I'll try that. I think it's just 1 map, and I always get dumped when it comes up in the rotation.ZombieSupaStar said:

you should've traded the keys for hats that you wanted! :-(
A key is worth a decent amount, and you could've gotten some good hats.

Are you familiar with the amount of drops you can get per week?Anilusion said:

My main got 2 drops thus far (1 was crate) played bout 12 hours thus far. Valve fucking with me. I could understand if it was my 5$ idle but i dropped bout 50$ in this account (mainly drunken gifting)Anilusion said:

Well I think I had an occasion when I wasn't getting that much drops, but the next week was good.

Its aggravating as fuk watching everyone get drops and all i get to do is play XD
There was scheduled downtime on my webhost that I forgot about during the time the awards normally get generated. Ran it manually. Your whip is now golden.Borgnine said:
Also, do you guys think I should bother with making ribbons higher than gold? It's easy, but tedious work. It'd also take forever to get them. Right now bronze is 3 awards, silver is 10 and gold is 25 (the defaults were 1 3 and 10 respectively). If I were to make like diamond and platinum and such it'd probably be 75 and 200. That is a lot of awards.

Yeah, my alts got really shitty drops this week too. One of them got 10 items; the rest averaged 5. They all idled overnight too. Probably karmic rebalancing for the two hats I got last week.

Yo dam, there was this one time when I wanted a Soda Popper, and I asked on the GAF Server, if anyone had a spare Soda Popper for a scrap metal. It was Metaphorically. He traded me a Soda Popper for my scrap...and I found out today that it wasn't really a spare...
It was crafted (blueprint = 1 Reclaimed Metal, Bonk, Force of Nature).
He is a nice spy =D

The drop system has hated me ever since I got my last hat drop about 3 months ago. I've had to trade for most of my Uber Update items and still don't have them all.
Yeef said:
I don't know that I'd even bother with it right now. Since the awards are basically just time dependent and favor those who main a class, any more awards would just be for a small group of people. 75 is a long ways away, can always do it later. Also I'd have to come up with diamond and platinum related names, fuck that. I don't even know what platinum is, some sort of gas I wager.
