I know Harb posted some POV demos from like s6 - there may be some viaduct floating around in there (the demos still work, in so far as they're viewable, they're just not entirely correct lol).

The 1942 Spring Offensive - 42' would be the tag of course.

Roy Hibbert, the center for the Indiana Pacers, occasionally streams on twitch lol. Mostly in the off season though.

I watched all day Thursday - it's a little tradition of the kiddo and I to watch the whole tournament, from back when he was a newborn and I couldn't do anything other than watch TV in the dark lol.

What a day Thursday was, so many great games. Still plenty of good ones to come - although all our Indiana teams are gonna be out soon excepting one.

From having watched a lot of Froyo this season, it's *possible* for them to at least lose games on LAN - the problem is that their opposition so far this season haven't been methodical enough. Sure, I have a fetish for methodical play, but that's really all it comes down to. All 3 of the teams going into LAN have struggled to keep up with Froyo and done relatively well at times, but ultimately they fall pray to some lazy mistake and end up getting crushed, and that basically sucks the wind right out of the sails of a team. The same has generally been true for other super teams. I should point out that by rounds for and against S12 was the most competitive season of TF2 we've ever had in NA - but it also had one of the most dominant teams (ultra-Mix^) and the same was true of them. Teams would occasionally give them a game, and then something spectacularly bad would happen to them, and they'd never get any traction back.

The point of playing comp is to see who is best. If you're not interested in participating in that exercise maybe you could take up painting or any other pursuit which so pleases you.

Sehnsucht from Rammstein. I bought it as soon as it became available in the US in 1998, and I still have it on regularly.

The problem with pubs was never the demoman.

On the whole, the only thing that's changed for NA play is that like Xalox et al have said, kritz is basically useless now, unless you only play criminally inept teams. It's much harder to catch 1-3 players before your own medic (or you the demo) are killed. Sometimes it's hard to catch even one if you miss slightly, those guys will just go flying every which way, scared, but alive.

I've got too many HS stories. 11th-12th grade and the whole of college were the best times of my life hands down.

So a few simple stories.

I went to a small rural high school that housed grades 7-12, my graduating class was less than 90 students.

I was in remedial math classes for the whole of my career from 7th-12. Those were great for fun. For example, on the second day of class, we had to turn in our first homework assignment of the year, one student however, had not finished it. The assignment, by the way, was to demonstrate which number out of the two was the greatest, or the least as the case may be. Very simple. However, this student, decided to bite the bullet, for having not done his homework, and said "Mr. so and so, I don't understand these least to greatest problems." At which point the entire class erupted in laughter - to boot with the fact that several students said "he can't even count."

My senior year, I had to take geometry so as to graduate with a college eligible diploma. Unfortunately, geometry is usually reserved for 9-10th graders, and so my schedule didn't line up, as such, I, and a friend of mine, were forced into the 8th grade advanced geometry class. We were required to keep a special notebook and folder for the class. So immediately after the first day, we went to wal-mart, the only store in town, and purchased an entire Dora the Explorer notebook and folder set, along with pencils and big erasers; so that we would be able to fit in with our classmates.

We had FFA too, and FFA members were to paint their hands green, I took AG as an elective, but almost everybody else in the class was an FFA member, they had to paint their hands green to symbolize their membership. After class, as it was the last period of the day, the teacher set out a coffee can with gasoline in it, so that the FFA members could take the green paint off of their hands. One particularly bright specimen decided that it would be a good idea to light the gasoline, that was on his hand, on fire. As fire is what some people call, very hot, he reacted in surprise and instinctively shook his hand, causing flaming gasoline to fly everywhere, including directly into the coffee can filled with gasoline causing a small explosion and substantial fire. It required fire trucks to be called, and everybody was sent home early.

I gave 0 fucks about parking. I parked however the fuck I wanted to, but I always did it clear in the back so that my car would also be by itself, providing me with this freedom. One day, an individual decided to lean out of his window and shout "Nice parking job TJ" and drive off smugly. Then, as I was driving home, I noticed that this same guy had been in an accident - he'd rear-ended another car, and completely obliterated his vehicle. I rolled down the window and shouted "nice driving job!" and drove off with a sense of elation

On prom night, my girlfriend at the time was supposed to have made reservations at this nice hibachi grill to take her, myself, my best friend, and his girlfriend to. However, upon arrival, it turned out that she had, in fact, lied about having made reservations. They told us it would be a 45-60 minute wait. So instead, we went to fazoli's, because every other place in town was stocked full up with prom people, because the local schools in that town had their prom on the same day. Then we went to a used record store and meandered around, as the place we'd gone was roughly 45 minute away from the prom venue. Then, getting into our separate cars, I took a detour, and took my girlfriend home. As she noticed what I was doing, she began to cry and apologize profusely for her mistake. She explained that they had told her they didn't have space for 4 reservations on the day she called (a week later than I'd told her to call), but they assured her it wouldn't be that long of a wait, and so she didn't want to worry me. I told her that I'd had quite enough of her and that when we got to her house (she didn't go to my school) it would be most appreciated if she could please get out without causing a scene. After dropping her off, and telling her she could come around in the morning for whatever of her things were at my house, I went to prom solo. It just so happened that one of the best looking girls in school, who was a friend of mine, was going to prom solo (it was a show of solidarity with one of her single friends apparently). So, I made my move, spent the night with her, and invited her back to my house for the after party we'd planned. She accepted enthusastically. We watched awful horror movies until 3-4 AM or so, and then my friend and his girlfriend left. I asked my prom-mate if she'd like to go home, she said she'd be fine with staying the night. I told her I'd go upstairs and get my room in order for her to stay in there, she told me that was unnecessary and began to aggressively kiss me. It was a great night, and also the best relationship decision I made for years to come.

On the last day of school we were supposed to "cut school" and go to an organized senior cut day to Cedar Point, a nice amusement park in Ohio. However, my cabal of friends decided we were much too cool for that, and set it up with our senior English teacher that we would instead of cutting, *go* to school instead, and just spend the day in her class room watching funny movies and we pitched in to order pizzas. It was a great day. We went to the ag shop, made a cement boot, I painted with my new girlfriend (the girl from prom night) - she is to this day quite the artist, we watched some truly great movies, and at the end of the day, we went all over town doing various neat small town things, and wrapped up with a barbeque at my house.

I was in a debate-team style thing, called "academic superbowl" which was rather a lot like jeopardy. Our school had a team. There are some good stories revolving around that, but the best was, one of the guys from a nearby school informed us of an illicit gambling den in his town (a 20 minute drive for us), because he caught us playing poker. Gambling mind you, is almost wholly illegal in my state, so it doesn't really happen anywhere in an organized way, and we were all under 18. So, we go to this place that appeared to be a chuck e. cheese style establishment, complete with animatronic band members. In the back however, there was poker being played by a wide variety of individuals. Some were HS kids, some where adults. They had several tables. We had played poker for years to figure out who had to buy lunches, and a few had read a few strategy guides. We decided to buy in, and had brought around 100$ each (we had jobs) to make our way in to some over the kiddie games. I ended the night walking away with around 380$. The Xbox had been released a few years prior, and I rather liked halo, so after we wrapped up, I took my winnings in, snatched up an Xbox, ninja gaiden black, halo, and an assortment of other games.

I can confirm that league operations are difficult. Especially free ones.

*wistfully remembers filling out schedules for hours and hours*

1999's American Movie is a pretty solid thing to watch with people.

I also used to show Kobayashi's "Seppuku" (known also as Hara-kiri in the US) from 1967 whenever people would claim to like movies.

Another good one is Grizzly Man - a documentary about a guy who goes to live with grizzly bears, and ultimately descends into a sort of mental illness where he believes he can talk to the bears, and they eat him.

Authenticity man would surely help you owl. http://existentialcomics.com/comic/46

I don't play because I find it impossible to come into contact with 5 other people who also play tf2 and not have at least one make me wish I were dead, having an ice cold coke, or doing almost anything else. If that could be amended I'd gladly play every night simply because I'm a competitive person who has nothing better to do - and I'm too old to try to play basketball or something again.

Why cant I type in hieroglyphics on here :(

You've gotten a lot better. I know some of our early casts I definitely got the feeling that you were overwhelmed somewhat or perhaps a bit nervous.

The main thing for me is rapport between casters - that's generally all that exists within 2-3 man casting. Everybody does their own thing - if for example, you watch a lot of NBA games, most teams' local broadcast crew consists of 2 people - granted they are listed as "play by play" and "analysis" but those roles are very rarely ever used in practice - the most important thing is the rapport between the casters. This is also the case for things we've done together - as we've gotten used to each other it's gone a lot better from that first process game when neither of us had any idea what to expect from the other person lol. The same goes for e-sports, I've never really played Sc2, and had given up Brood War long before taste-tosis were a thing, but I can listen to them because they've got a good relationship for the most part and can make for interesting viewing as a result.

I personally like keeping catch-phrases alive, for note, Cbear is gone, but something of his time as the caster du jure should be preserved - along with several others. It's good for casters to leave their own mark on the game so to speak, but it's good to keep certain parts of the vernacular alive.

Also the best policy is to ignore all criticism until somebody pays you to do this - that's my approach anyways.

That's me - I should have space open.

Be aware that most of my knowledge of military stuff happens to directly relate to WW2 and not so much with the modern stuff - although I spent a year and some living with an officer reservist in the Nat Guard and we talked a bit lol.
