Why do you hate ESEA so much? :(

why are you such a colossal douche bag?

when are you going to make your trashcan debut in 6s?

Can you ask infinite how it feels to be a multiple world record holder?

Longest bull ride: 2 years on slingshot's back
and Deepest unassisted dumpster dive: 3 miles

Ask him if he's a sellout

oh and ask him how many teams UGC has since he loves telling everyone.

why do ugc admins just arbitrarily moves teams into different divisions without even asking the leaders, while letting a bunch of IM or invite players play in bottom divisions?

Why do you insist on CTF being played when Arena isn't?
...Arena's not played, right?
When, if ever, will you stop searching for CTF/5CP maps that: don't stalemate, and actually reward good play in Highlander?
Do you have any plans for having various skill levels of players pug new or controversial maps and give feedback on them before being put into the season?

Can we please keep these questions/comments constructive? I understand some of you really dislike these people, and I don't blame you for doing so, but all you're doing is making it harder for cbear and Salamancer to sort through these comments to find legitimate questions.

Thank you.

I SEE YOU HARB

Why are you guys hellbent on bringing FF/TFC back?

It's dead. It's been dead. Lay it to rest.

Would you consider using a client to cut down on the amount of blatant hackers and baseless bans for cheating in UGC?

What are their objections to having a group of top platinum players decide the maplist?

The entire maplist could be assembled for next season, and then each subsequent season there could be 2 maps voted to be up for grabs. These two maps would not necessarily be deleted from the maplist, but rather they lose their confirmation status and have to compete with any maps nominated by the community.

This could resolve the demand for consistency as well as infinite's desire to support map makers.

The summer season could just change the rules slightly to force the two maps changed to actually change, allowing for more new maps to be recognized.

How long until they get rid of Vitalism/Haunt forever and I play HL again?

EDIT: Mighty Xarlor, thank you for granting my HL team use of a UGC server. We had our own server last season and we dedicated it to you.

TheMedicTF2Deserves isn't an alt.

In their opinion, is HL LAN-able?

question 1) you guys say you wont just let platinum players vote on maps because it's a "community league" and thus everyone deserves a say

in that case, why do admins decide the maps at all? why not make it ENTIRELY a vote?

question 2) can you explain exactly how a free premium deal for ugc 6s would reduce the number of teams in 6s for the next season and harm ugc? follow-up question: do you realize the top ugc 6s teams are leaving for esea anyways?

question 3) you guys constantly deflect criticism on the forums by saying that only a small minority of people post on them, and that people go there just to complain. well, isn't that kind of what happens when you set up a FORUM for discussion? is there a better way CURRENTLY in place to obtain feedback about ugc decisions? if the best way to criticize decisions is delegitimized, how can anyone criticize ugc successfully at all?

question 4) do you guys realize that whether criticism is constructive or not is based upon whether it suggests what you can do to improve the problem, and not how much you like the person saying it?

question 5) infinite, every time people complain about your admin decisions you say something along the lines of "you weren't around when ugc started and have no idea how much good I've done, so you can't talk". how is that at all related to unpopular decisions you are making NOW?

question 6) the current map list was decided primarily as follows: before season 8, the team leaders voted on which maps they preferred from a map pool. the winners were used last season. this season, the RUNNERS-UP from that pool make up the majority of the maps.

do you guys realize how dumb that is???

follow-up question: you guys say that it's better for the map list to change a lot every season, and to not play the same maps over and over again regardless of how popular they are. why is that so important, and why don't other competitive games do that?

question 7) infinite, you have said many times that you dislike 6s because you feel it limits what tf2 is supposed to be. please explain this belief and attempt to defend it to 6s players who scrim like 10 hours a week and feel like the metagame shifts a lot in 6s.

question 8) ugc primarily grew out of tfc, and two teams (exodus society and djedi), two of the earliest hl teams, produced a huge portion of the admins and most famous community members. these teams and players are really good friends with each other and support and defend each other in discussions about tf2. on the ugc forums you will often see a string of 4 or 5 admins posting in a row, essentially saying completely identical things, just to back one another up. infinite consistently says that the tf.tv forums, where he receives massive hate, are just an anti-highlander circlejerk, which is why he comes off as worse than he does on the ugc forums.

in light of all i've just said, which possibility seems more likely:

a) the ugc forums are balanced and have many viewpoints and the tf.tv forums are a big circlejerk, preventing infinite from discussing things reasonably without getting attacked.

b) the ugc forums and its legion of admins are a circlejerk and infinite is so used to an army of yes-men that every time he ventures out of it he's surprised at how he can't act like as much of a stubborn know-it-all as he does on there and assumes it's because everyone is just jumping on the hate bandwagon when it's really just him being a dick.

bonus question 1) how come I get banned from the ugc forums for making a joke about autism yet infinite blatantly commits transphobia by intentionally referring to marisa as a "he" and does not get told to stop?

bonus question 2) why is cold an admin? (you don't need to actually ask these)

oh one more:

question 9) for a long time, infinite was completely resistant to ending the invite player limit, saying that ugc would like die because teams would ragequit due to the invite players. finally, he acquiesced, and it's been a massive success. the skill level of hl has risen a lot, more games get casted, more players from hl become known as superstars, etc.

could this mean infinite is wrong about what catastrophic outcomes could result in other areas?

based mustard

oh one more one more:

question 10) on the ugc staff page (http://www.ugcleague.com/staff.cfm)

infinite is described as a "hl head admin"

why is he involved in 6s decision-making for ugc in the first place?

Why did you ban loops for posting his penis?

infinite is definitely scoping out this thread right now, i can only imagine the barrage of stupid answers that he is going to give

also will he be a bigger idiot than hexagram? or will they both pile out of the clown car at the same time. stay tuned folks

why havent you taken up hiildreths offer to smash your router

I can't imagine anyone could possibly be as good as hex was.

mustard going HAAM

transphobia is distinct from being a dick. Not that it's any better, or i have a better word for it. But the important part here is "and does not get told to stop."

Do yout think a system where only new teams can start off in steel and all the teams that make playoffs meaning (1-16) have to move up a division and the teams that place in the top three have a choice to move up two divisions. Silver would be the top eight teams have to move up, and gold the top two teams. Similarly, if a team has a losing record in a division and it is clear they are being crushed, they are allowed to move down a divison in the hope they will do better and still have fun.

Or more simiply put, do you think a system where the top teams at different levels will have to move up one divison, and losing teams will have the choice to drop a divison half way through the season. Do you think it will work in UGC?

Incoming missiles

Since everyone seems to have pitchforks and torches and tar and feathers in mind. Here's a serious one:

With the explosion of Highlander over the past year, where do you see UGC's role going forward in HL? Do you envision a pay-league forming for Highlander or will it remain mostly a introductory view into Competitive TF2 (and by nature, 6s)?

Infinite, if I were to offer you the job as ESEA-HL head admin (it's paid), would you take it?
