Add me, I have them on a drive somewhere

edit: nvm, exile's got you

When I'm coaching, I like to have a mix of skills in the game. Otherwise, the games are pretty much always a 5-0 for one team or the other. It's really hard to coach 6 completely new players without making it kinda unfun. I find it hard to allow aggressive play because of how out of hand it can get with multiple people overextending and stuff. With some UGC people thrown into the mix, you get a group of people that can do their own thing, so you can really focus on teaching the newbies how to do stuff during the fights. Then, at the end of fights you critique the UGC player's playstyle. Also, in groups with just noobies, the punishment for major mistakes just isn't there. With mixed groups, the noobies get the basic, the ugc players get more complex advice, the game is less chaotic, the UGC players get good at shutting down people playing overly-aggressive, the noobs learn the over-aggression has consequences, and I don't get an aneurysm. Everybody wins!

I also like coaching while playing for a sort of similar reason. Not only can I balance the teams by handicapping myself/ tryharding, I can also focus on what the other people are doing without having to work with whoever would otherwise be on the class I'm playing. It's much easier to coach 5 people than it is to coach 6 people.

Edit: Also the more IM/ Invite players that coach, the better. Give it a shot!

140 fps= stuttering on a 144hz monitor.

OP, I just play in 720p. I get 150+ on midfights while streaming on my Phenom II cpu. You don't even notice after a little while. Is this a problem only with TF2 or do other programs mess up?

Did you try restarting your computer and then deleting it?

e: misread op

Boyos is good.

He may have meme ptsd from his previous teams, tread lightly.

I got my sister this Y50 for as her college/ gaming/ etc machine. It was working great for a while, but the battery life is pretty terrible now, despite being only a few months old. The trackpad is also pretty finicky and straight-up doesn't work sometimes. When I see her over Thanksgiving break, I can tell you whether it's the machine or something she's doing if you'd like.

In fairness, arena has always been the opposite of competitive. I don't think of myself as an elitist or whatever. I like highlander fairly decently, I gave 4v4 a try, I started playing competitive in a 3v3 tournament even. It's just the arena has always been such a pub-y thing that it's in a different realm of tf2 in my head.

I see "arena competitive" and it just doesn't make sense, but like I said: it's actually pretty cool

Okay I thought this would be really stupid, but it's not bad to watch, honestly. Fun stuff!

nah dude i had 11 viewers on my stream once and i got ddosed. people are weird and do weird things.

seriously please. it was a neat moment back there among the people that put so much effort into the event. it was awesome being back there, and i think people outside of the 10 or so that were there would love to see that

Link?

Messaged you my email on tftv. Ty :)

I'm super happy that a lot of you guys on 4g are starting to stream regularly, and I'll happily support high level players who give back to the community like you guys do. So, I ordered two shirts from froyotech to support you guys and get some neat stuff to wear for GXL. I got an order confirmation, but nothing else since then.

I tried adding you on steam, commenting on your profile, and tweeting @Froyotech and @FroyoOrders. I understand that you have been busy with GXL and other stuff both inside and outside TF2, but this is getting to be a pretty lame situation for me right now :/

I ordered 5 weeks ago and haven't gotten a delivery or even a shipment confirmation. I'm a pretty patient guy, and I'll wait however long I need to. I just really want some info on whats going on. I've tried to ask this in multiple discrete ways or whatever, but that's not working. What's up?

sorry i hate to do this on the forum but this is all i can think to do at this point.
