MY MAN

fucking destroyed

he is most definitely IM level.
this season of open would be a complete & utter waste of his current drive & available schedule, to be brutally honest. i'd love to see him go as far as he can with what time he has.

i know you have good intentions, but he definitely has played for the longest time to improve
you simply don't develop any level of DM if you "play to win" from the getgo; you can't even execute the proper "play to win" techniques unless you grind out important fundamentals first.

SUPER HYPE
he's one of the best soldiers i know; he has the potential to go really far now that he can play competitively
having played with him since we first started (ugc steel, ugc silver, and briefly during IM in C&C) up until his work schedule caught up, i wholly recommend him with the utmost confidence.

his DM is utterly nutty. he is still a bit inexperienced with 6's, but has more than enough DM experience to quickly catch up & meld with any team situation.

do your best this season man!!!

snoven and seanskee are my homies

edit: OK, looks like they have strict ICMP rules. if you interface on a VPN and try either pathping or visualroute, what happens?

does this affect all ESEA servers, or just ones in the chicago area?

more often than not, this is just a peering issue between ISP's. even though it was one traceroute, the first hop out of your university's network is leaning towards that sentiment. how prevalent is this issue outside of chicago servers?

that one single traceroute isn't much help; idk what ports are blocked, or to what extent ICMP is blocked.

are you plugged straight into their system, are you wireless, and/or is your computer connected to your own router? if the latter, how is the router interfacing with their system? what is the make/model of your router, if connected to your own? were you explicitly warned to not run a tracert, and/or did it just straight up not work?

if none of the packets were properly received (the "just straight up didn't work" option), then we need to start identifying ways to work around this so we can get better stats:

try "pathping google.com >C:\outputPathPing.txt" in cmd, and copy-paste the output.
if that doesn't work, try visualroute & let me know if it establishes any connection to any of the nodes.

make sure you answer my questions as well!!!
we can proceed from there.

thank you for turning me on to House Rulez
their music is so fucking funky

set it as high as you can & let the server do the limiting

if you unfortunately have packet loss or choke that's exacerbated by bandwidth usage, you should set it lower than the server's cap &, more preferably, identify what's causing the loss (if it's from a situation that you literally can't avoid, such as rigid household internet restraints like mandatory wifi or from satellite internet, which i had the unfortunate experience of using for the first 16 years of my life, then i offer you my condolences).

don't let any1 tell u otherwise

the best mouse you can use at the moment
only upgrades i could see are a slightly tighter scroll wheel & a standard chassis (but the edges intuitively conform well to my hand, so no big deal)

by no means is that normal. it's not the model's fault; it's that particular mouse.

just get the g303 and you'll be set
