This is completely unironic: My dad's friend and neighbor testified during the trial because he sat next to OJ on the flight he took out of LAX to Chicago that night.

He didn't think OJ was acting suspiciously so I guess that clears it up!

I've just never personally seen laggy players on STV's make snaps of that nature. I understand the STV isn't representative of where people are exactly looking, but I have honestly never seen that before in my entire life.

Like maybe I'm wrong but that still looks insanely fishy.

ok that is easily some of the most blatant cheating I've ever witnessed in any competitive setting let alone on an actual cast

wot if yer mate was a tv

still looking for an answer to this question

I try to install the medium-high config but it crashes my game whenever I try connecting to a server. Anything below that works fine, but medium high and above always crashes my game.

how is kaptain's aim simultaneously so soft and so hard

Fuck this. I always loved avian. Really great song.
R.I.P.

I prefaced my post with saying banning froyo is dumb. I fully grasp the UGC analogue. Even if Froyo were wholly unbeatable it would still be dumb to ban them because of how innately unfair that is. All my post addressed was what seems to be a contradiction between people who on the one hand get pissed when sigafoo claims other teams don't really try enough but on the other hand have optimism people can beat froyo even though the logical conclusion assuming that teams like Ascent really do try hard enough is that Froyo as a team contains a level of skill which far surpasses any other team, because something has to explain why they shitroll everyone. And if that were the case, I, like sigafoo, would feel pretty cynical about the state of competitive tf2. I wouldn't do what he did, but I'd be cynical.

Let me preface this by saying that I think banning froyo is stupid.

However, I have to admit that this doesn't really answer the question at hand, that of Froyo's beatability. I have literally never played ESEA in my life so bear with me if I'm just being a fucking clueless idiot here.

Sure, you can write emotionally charged paragraphs about how horrendously insulting it is to insinuate that teams who play Froyo don't try enough, but the cold and hard truth is that every other team in NA gets absolutely fucking slaughtered by them. And because this is undeniably the case, I see only two explanations:

1.) These teams really don't put in enough effort to beat Froyoteach
2.) Froyotech's players are incontrovertibly better (have way way more raw skill) than everyone else in NA and have been for over 3 years

If the first is correct, it would seem as though people like Sigafoo aren't actually wrong in their assertions. And if the second is correct, then why hold out hope for anybody to beat Froyo at all, like so many people here are doing?

I'm just being honest here, all of the indignant essays in response to those who suggest these teams don't try hard enough seem like really kind gestures and pats on the back to beloved members of the community who happen to lose to Froyotech, but if it is the case that all these other teams DO try like froyotech does, it would seem as though the logical conclusion is that Froyo's roster simply contains far too much raw talent for anybody to compete with, which is why they fuck everyone else in invite in the ass every season. And if that's the case, why is sigafoo's cynicism about Froyo being unbeatable misguided?

Again, this is coming from the POV of a total outsider to ESEA, but if all these 100+ upvoted posts where people who continuously lose to Froyo respond to people like sigafoo about HOW FUCKING DARE HE say something so INSULTING are entirely correct in their content, then I don't see any explanation other than "Froyo is innately skilled at a tier vastly superior to all these other teams, and has been for several years," which I've got to admit would make me really cynical too, especially when I don't see anybody else suddenly closing that skill gap (if it truly does exist).

why do u post

I made this account in 2013, but since then there's been a team named Se7en. Can my name be changed to Seven? Thank you so much!
