No more forkball.
Forkball sent me a message the other day, asking how to play Magic: The Gathering.
I thought he was in China. There's no games allowed in China!

Are you kidding me? There's probably a remote bunker somewhere in the Chinese countryside where youths do tapping and summoning drills hours on end. For the glory of the motherland and family!

Kuro, I thought you always wanted the last word?
That was when you needed a player for your team, not a team vs team thing. =P

Laptop had to spin off of my desk for no reason and crash to the ground.
It landed pretty hard but was cushioned by my backpack (which didn't really break it's fall much) but least to say I no longer have a real desk and my usage of the mouse is quiet limited....again. All happened day before my exam day.
Whenever I boot TF2 for more than 4-5 minutes it crashes as well. Trying to fix it at this point hopefully nothing is wrong with laptop.

If it makes you feel better tf2 crashing like that is totally normal for it, so hopefully it's nothing wrong with your computer.

You know this because he was drunk and you held his penis for him, right? Like girls who hold their friend's hair when they're throwing up.

I've completely lost my TF2 mojo. -_-
But I had fun in those couple games on the Jank tonight.

Awesome night. Longest TF2 session I've had in a year at least; logged in around 7:45 PM and didn't log out until around 1:45 AM. Unfortunately, I now have 2-3 hours of work to finish before I go to bed, you bastards.
Spy is awesome by the way.

He was in a car accident and got a fractured nose and cheekbone and had to get surgery.
I say this assuming you're saying he looks weird. Because I don't actually know what you're saying.

Also, I seem to recall he (and several of the cast from Star Wars) had a nasty hard-drug habit.
By the way, I'm just posting here to let you bastards know I'm still awake working on stuff I should have been doing while I was mocking Brazilians with the rest of you.

Man, had I known the sticky jumper was so much fun I would've been using the one that's been sitting in my backpack for months a whole hell of a lot sooner. Been running with a loch n load, sticky jumper and a caber, not always practical but a hell of a lot of fun on maps with high skyboxes. You can just soar through the air at ridiculous speeds and crazy height. The AoE of the jumper stickies is a lot wider and gives you a lot more boost than normal ones. The trade-off in fall damage is so minimal given the distance and speed you can travel.
On Frontier you can jump from the top of the hill near the second cap, sometimes even make it over the arch on the bottom of the hill and land right at the bottom by the spawn. Sometimes you get hung up on the arch but most people aren't looking up that high up on that part of the map. You can knock out the tele entrance, caber a few people as they exit spawn and maybe live to troll again.
There's a certain height where sentries don't seem to track you, so you can use two or three jumper stickies and get behind everything on maps like Upward or Badwater right out of spawn and wreak havoc on the engies buildings. If you've got a clear enough line of sight, you can air shot a level 3 sentry with the loch n load before you hit the ground, just as it starts to register and track you. "Beep, beep...", "KABLOOWIE!"
It's kind of a kamikaze build but it's ridiculously fun.

Carrie Fisher has famously been the spokesman of bi-polar disorder. What it does to behavior and the meds to stabilize mood can sometimes be pretty nasty and with the predisposition to abuse drugs, even worse.

Sticky Jumper + Caber is da bes.
My one wish is that someday Demo can: Mantreads + Sticky Jumper + Caber

That's what I'm hoping but it feels like too much of a coincidence when TF2 was just working fine the day before and then becomes unplayable after this accident. I was finally becoming good at TF2 too, and this stuff happens...
I quoted you, happy?
True, my brother accidentally poured coke on his laptop (was his fault to leave coke on a crowded "desk") and now like 10 of his keys don't work and he has to copy and paste letters if he wants a specific phrase said.

I'm not very familiar with laptops, but can't he just pop the keys out and clean with rubbing alcohol and Q-Tips?
ESEA stream's up! http://www.twitch.tv/esea_orange
First match is Mix^ vs Chess Club on koth_viaduct. Might take a while to start... because apparently one of the players' LAN computers didn't have TF2 installed. :S
Time to go brew some tea or something...

In what ways does Tf2 crashes? hl2.exe? Crash to Desktop?

One of the best snipers the game has ever seen. That may be the best play I've ever seen! This may be the most intense fight for a point I've ever seen. These announcers are excited.

so we are not watching the match and listening to these guys :\
Heh, wonder what eXtine will have to say about this.

I'm not going to lie, I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that competitive tf2 exists.

Oh, and because you all suck ass, I seem to recall someone mentioning last night that I'm some sort of super brew scientist. It's basically true, our lab is full of flasks/tubes/bioreactors/continuous cultures of brewer's yeast. It smells delicious all damn day and you're damn right that you're jealous.
