Huge GGs to Nut Draggers, what a fantastic finals!

This is how the system works currently. 2 of the match points go to the winner, 1 gets divided up by rounds.

This is a flaw that was realized this past season, but would be fixed for next season if the point system is kept.

Goblin must force all balls unless provided essential advice about scrotum tickling.

My school announced in the middle of this week (which is spring break) that they're extending spring break by a week followed by at least two weeks of online classes. We may be back for April, but there's a very real chance I'll just not get to see some of my best friends again cause I'll be graduating then likely moving to CA or something for work. I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye cause they hadn't announced anything before people left for break :(

I've only played with air when he's rang for my team, but every time his calls have been fabulous and he's generally fun to have in comms. He shoots stuff good too I think.

I recently switched from comanglia's gfx config to mastercomm's gfx config, which I like better overall, but it makes the lighting on some maps really bright:

For comparison, my old (comanglia's) config (which has the lighting I want):

I tried looking through the configs, but wasn't able to figure out what setting was causing this.
Things I've tried, and didn't seem to do anything:

r_worldlightmin 
mat_monitorgamma
r_bloomtintexponent
mat_non_hdr_bloom_scalefactor

I'm just waiting to see what the HL speedrunning community does with this. I wanna see ABH in VR.

The first two rounds of matches have been scheduled for Saturday, and start at 4. Saturday will be 4 rounds of swiss, with each match played as one half on each of two maps (ties are allowed).

Sunday will be a double elim bracket of the top 4 teams in each division, which will play over 4 matches. Each match will be played as two halves on a single map, in the same style as regular season matches. The map selection process for Sunday will be as follows, where Team A is the team with a higher position in the bracket:
Team A bans
Team B bans
Team A picks
In the case of a golden cap, the match will be played to a round win or 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the team with control of mid wins the match.
