It makes sense why the quality has gone downhill so much since Season 5 when you have guys like this involved.

It's above-average fan fiction at this point.

There's been bits and bobs present in other threads, but it's been suggested to consolidate everything into one place. Please keep it constructive, and provide suggestions where possible.

Coverage feedback:

+ Split screen rollouts
+ Weapon loadout icons
+ 2nd POV for offclassing etc.
+ Nuze at 10
+ Pick/ban system
+ Player cams
+ Enjoyed all on-screen talent (couch and casters)

- A few big plays weren't caught on camera (LAN limitations/no cheat feed etc. Brainstorming thread)
- Lack of interviews
- Need more frag movies etc. to keep folks entertained during downtime
- Harder to keep track of non-casted match results than it should've been. Comp.tf went down for a while during playoffs, consider mirroring those results elsewhere to prevent single point of failure. An /r/tf2 results thread would be good
- WAR's a great caster and made me laugh a shitload, but he was talking over Kermit quite a bit

I'm not intending to have a go at Essentials.tf - they did a fantastic job and I can understand that they wanted to focus on getting the new features and the barebones nailed this time around, so this probably meant sacrificing other things such as interviews during the coverage.

Multiplay's signup page has said 13:30 Friday 25th since it went up, which was last week I think. Could've had a placeholder since then and extend the time if it was delayed?

Is it really worse to have the start time wrong for a while compared to not displaying the event in the first place?

It wasn't directed at you specifically. It's not really believable that anyone on the tf.tv staff with access to the event scheduler is going to look at that single event listed when a LAN starts tomorrow and not consider having that listed too.

Experience

I understand why there isn't a news posting based on not having enough information yet, but why is there no placeholder in the Upcoming Events? You know the date, you know the time, and you know the stream. If details change then just update it.

You have an ESEA open final scheduled in 5 days in there, so clearly someone's taking the piss.

Bollocks. Maybe you're less invested because there's no NA team(s) at i61, but there's next year and beyond. Hopefully stuff gets announced a lot earlier in advance then, which it should as we won't have the various delays that happened this time.

Regardless, Euro-only LAN is not a bad thing

This is pretty minor compared to i49's coverage, and even then some extensive collaboration happened. Adding it to the events and hosting the stream isn't asking for much.

Will it be added to the Upcoming Events schedule? Last night's cup wasn't.

So great, it lasted 1 season

I've created a playlist on Soundcloud:

https://soundcloud.com/chikan-tounai/sets/tf2ers

Track listing is based on the order of posts in this thread. I've tried to find Soundcloud accounts for the Bandcamp-only posts, but some don't exist or I couldn't track them down. I've not included links to friend accounts, but I can if you want me to.

If you want a song added, or one of your tracks already on the playlist replaced with something else then please post it here.
