Still looking for one more caster for TF2, throw me a DM or fill out the form at https://forms.gle/pDFS9CHtJRb4akBdA

I had the privilege of getting to know Ohia after meeting her in the TFTV staff slack. Since I met her, I watched her write some of the best articles and puns maybe in the sites history, pulled her into casting after forming a friendship, and spending so much time with her playing TF2 and CS. She poured her entire heart into this game and community, and tried so hard to improve every organization she was a part of. I was extremely lucky to be her chosen sister, and both of us had supported each other constantly during our transitions.

I'm gonna miss you so much ire I love you so much

from what I understand, the reason the server issues were persistent was due to them being reliant on TFTrue (being based on the same setup we had at RGB4 from what I know) and TFTrue no longer being maintained; Had not forseen this as I had imagined I would have had to give the full installs from scratch for servers when asked to help, and tried to scramble and send over the correct packages between groups and playoffs while running production but am unsure if those changes that got pushed ever did anything significant to fix the issue.

For RGB6, the plan is likely to find a new dedicated TF2 server op during the weekend (a role DubThink and before that drshadowpuppet filled) to avoid having the issues we did this weekend.

Shoutouts to LANFest for providing (among other things, they made this event so sick) prizing for TF2, cameras and headsets for the stream, a small kickback to casters and production helpers, and a bigger platform for us to grow our charity fundraising efforts. RGB6@TMG is gonna be insane, keep an eye out.

Shoutouts to everyone who came over and helped with the stream (in no particular order, Themicrocheeze, MarioManz, DolphiN, Rogue, tonyb). We really wouldn't have been able to have a stream without you guys, and i'm excited to see what RGB6 will allow us to refine.

Shoutouts to Prograde for taking me to microcenter for stream things, and for providing a super chill environment via the BBQ. Good vibes and good food, was a nice break from the high energy in the venue.

Shoutouts to hypnosis and MarioManz for vibing at Hooters on Sunday (and shoutouts to b4nny Football POV)

Shoutouts to Lou for the mini duckies! They invaded everywhere including the caster desk and it was great!

Shoutouts to RainofLight for always being pleasant to chill and talk with, always a friendly face i look forward to.

Shoutouts to wG6-150 for bringing home the gold, and shoutout to healthy hebrews for putting up a fight in the final!

Shoutouts to all of my fellow RGB staff for making all of the rest of our non-stream gears turn. The community we are building with this LAN is amazing and its amazing every event to see more and more TF2 players engaging with our broader community.

Monday morning update:
Shoutouts to Fireside Casts for helping provide coverage while we were putting on PUBG and CSGO on saturday morning/afternoon, as scuffed as the STVs were glad that we got to showcase most of the TF2 tournament.

Shoutouts specifically to jayy for organizing and octet for providing an on-site STV tunnel

Shoutouts to saam and tracker for being the realest ones, was solid vibing w y'all. Next LAN will match yall :)

The caster application form is now open! If you are attending the event in-person and would like to cast (TF2 or otherwise), you must submit an application.
