I don't wanna sound stereotypical about Poland but how are things here if you look a little bit gay on the street ? Will it be an issue of any kind ?

anyone else having issues with getting demos from serveme ? right now its broken for me (although demos.tf still works)

unlucky about the dates still but props to everyone involved for trying to improve the experience

While they laugh at my corpse I use my deathcam (now frozen in choke) to call out how to best fight them

Yeah every fresh meat cup before was also won by like lobby/mix lords with 3000 logs/MGE gremlins (nas boii won it twice lmao), it's a bit of a shame when you're getting stomped by them but as long as the whole cup isn't like that I don't see why we should change it, the point of the cup is more to show what comp is like and for new players to make connections so they can keep making teams and signing up.

Also to be fair you can be a lobby lord and a newbie at the same time as well, I think especially for like young people putting yourself in a voice call with 5 people you never met can be a bit daunting and so it might be easier to grind in spaces where you don't have to speak and so I think this type of player being in the cup is completely fine, they also have to learn to comm.

I still think it's not necessary and too big of a change to the class to stop one specific scenario from happening.

I am completely addicted to rocket-hugging people now however, it's like they hooked me up on their own supply and now I can't stop even if I wanted to, which is messed up and evil.

Pressing left alt and moving your mouse makes you walk really slowly.

Not exactly forgotten but one that I don't think everyone knows is that the announcer will not yell about the control point being capped if there was any sort of captime before you went on it.

getting a backcap in my first ever comp game, I was so hyped :D

It also influenced drastically the way I played the game for 2 years after that at least.

this is a great idea, good job !

I've been reading The World According to Color : A Cultural History by James Fox and it's been an absolute pleasure thus far. The book is split into chapters, each about a specific color and how it was used and its meaning altered throughout history. It's very readable (I don't have any formal art training and I never struggled) and its super interesting. Would recommend to anyone even slightly interested.

as usual, big thanks to production, admins and casters for working tirelessly through the issues to offer us a great LAN despite being mostly trapped in a dungeon cell on the first floor.
HUGE shoutout to Chiers for smoothly running everything and being super nice while doing so. Also sick engi cosplay.
shoutouts to everyone I hung out with : Hugo, mak, leth, karaoke master piggles, sintyre, drhappiness (finally free from admin work), twitch.tv/matektf and twitch.tv/whip_cactus, nation, swamp (especially after one beer), b_fisch, qbown, warped, Samus, DCS (thanks for the powerbank btw), nas boii, tob, schocky, danny, mulaa, ronz, dwo, june (Season 35 throwback!!! We don't talk about 36.) and everyone else that I might be forgetting.
shoutout to mackey5, mirra and tidB, for the CPHG 2019 throwback, it was lovely.
shoutout to zhern for not going through the numerous pre-LAN death threats and for beasting the B tournament.
shoutout to KO for the greatest heist ever tried.
shoutout to bum for the unauthorized recordings, helping me find people and some bold flirting maneuvers.
shoutout to Josh for some very nice chats and a surprisingly close armwrestle match.
shoutout to tiia and nicco, the wonder twins. It's always so nice to see you both !
Finally, a big shoutout to Oracle : Apollo, Bv, Dowel, Lukas (Thompson), Wylenn and honorary member Sinika. When I started online gaming, I never thought I could make such good friends and I feel incredibly lucky to have met each and everyone of you.

see you all soon I hope

Agree with everything said comparing this LAN to iSeries, rental prices were fucking sick as well. Having the hotel and the venue in the same building was super nice too.
BIG agree on the lighting, was hard to see and I feel like it made me sleepy + I kept knocking over one light fixture close to me.
Only thing that I would add is that I really enjoyed having a Grand Final that started earlier than usual. I know Insomnia gets delays all the time so it was not the admins' fault but having it start around the late afternoon makes it so much better for the afterparty and for people who have to leave early in the morning.

Planetside 2 deserved better

the tftv newsroom is at each other throats everytime this get brought up so we decided to find consensus and use the term "Electronic Sporting" from now on

Look it was when I wrote the article okay
