We should play Panic more often.

Yeef if you want to perform some admin abuse and switch the map over to Panic occasionally I will totally support you. Every time I nominate Panic it gets voted down so I pretty much stopped bothering to nominate it.

Also I just want to say Panic should be made an official map. We need more official Payload Race maps and Panic is the only good community PLR map I've played (besides Nightfall of course).
 
Panic is janktastic. Even if everyone were to have 30 ping, the map would still find a way to cause lag.

I only play vanilla pyro, but with Lollichop instead of axe. The Flamethrower buff made Axetinguisher less effective, and I don't want to use the Degreaser because that's not very satisfying. And Lollichop is my only strange pyro melee, so of course I have to use it over the Powerjack.
 
Hey Yeef, I got a good idea for your Saxxy submission. It's about a soldier who can't rocket jump and then quits tf2. That's it really. It's more of an art piece.

So, after all their web hosting woes... the UGC site is back up properly. The season start has been delayed to September 17, so we've got a little more time to find players and make a decision.

http://www.ugcleague.com/

So far, only 5 people have expressed interest in getting medals playing, IIRC:
  • Blizzard
  • ExMachina
  • NihonTiger90
  • Snacks the sober sea lion
  • SteveWinwood

I'll see if my cousin Ryuta would be willing to play Sniper, but his classes just started up again so he'll be busy.

I wouldn't mind signing up a team and reporting results, but don't really have any contacts when it comes to finding scrims... would just end up trying to wrangle people into a lobby or posting on UGC forums/Reddit/whatever to find practice matches.

Based on what Dog and I did... we pretty much met people during games on tf2lobby or set up scrims with teams we faced in previous weeks. Posting on forums for matches wouldn't be a bad idea either.

I'd be down if the team has a space that needs filling. I only really play Soldier, but if you need someone to be useless as another class then I'm yer man.

So I was playing for 5 minutes when I found a Fall Crate, containing either the Robro 3000 or an exceptionally rare item. Anybody know anything about these? It requires a special Fall Key to open.

No Medic's Killed Strange Part yet. :(

Still, it is most excellent that they added in some more of Ned's great work. <3

We don't need another reason for all of you to target me :(

After I targeted and successfully bombed in on Javaman multiple times he declared he'd never heal me again... until I saved him from a ravenous pack of Scouts!

I protect Medics from people like me who want to kill Medics!

You need to protects Medics and don't you rocket jump away.
 
Why weren't you chodes on tonight? We had some scout deathmatches going on for a good half hour.

And, no, I don't count you guys playing from 8-8:30 PM Central time as legit playing. I logged in at 8:35 PM and shit was a ghost town. Have I mentioned I hate 110% of you? Especially Borgnine and Yeef and Kirsten.

ALL OF YOU.

Yep.

The Solemn Vow sounds, despite the notes, were not added. They will be next patch according to Valve

Congrats on the second community schema getting added in. Keep it up!


I wonder if we're going to get a blog post worthy update very soon, seeing as how the Fall Crates they added in this update expire on the 20th of the month. They are going to have to add Fall keys very soon. Maybe the Manniversary update will be early this year instead of several weeks late?

And yes, the X-Com promos look awesome, yet I'll own them since I can't wait for X-Com. I plan on pre-ordering as soon as it hits Steam. I watched the hour long video of it from PAX this weekend, it looks great.

You're the worst. Makes medic no fun to play at all. I broke down and healed you the other night, but I'm going to buy an abacus to keep track of your java-air-kills and skip healing you for a round each time.
