#226 TFCL - North American League in Projects

Alright, so now that 2017 is nearly over, I want to clear up some confusion on the 2017 "LAN" we were going to be hosting.

1. The "TLAN" wasn't actually hosted by TFCL, but rather TFCL would end up powering the management side of things, so that Hidi (that actual host and organizer) could focus more on running it. TFCL would collect the fees, organize teams, and just make everything easier for Hidi, so she can do her thing. TFCL would even provide graphic design for TLAN, and create nametags, and bring in sponsors for the event. Ya know, so Hidi can focus on the actual organizing stuff, while I do the backend stuff.

Unfortunately, there were some issues with securing a venue, and I had to drop my support out of the event. I don't know how much I'm allowed to share, as some of it was fairly personal if I remember correctly. Though, I definitely hope to work with her again in the future, and help make TLAN a reality for her. However, even if I do end up supporting TLAN again, it'll only be as a "powered by" thing, not a "hosted by".

2. In regards to the actual TFCL 2018 LAN? Yes, it is still happening. I have a specific venue in mind, and want to make this LAN an international event for pretty much everybody that loves TF2. The current "ETA" is August 2018, and the venue in mind is located in Mississauga Ontario, Canada. It's near the Pearson International Airport, making for easy travel. I'm sure a few of you know which venue I'm talking about, though I won't name it right now just in case I can't secure a reservation for August 2018.

The LAN will be called UberJam 2018, and I'm hoping to make it just as big if not bigger than any other LAN in recent history. I know I (prematurely) announced a $20k prize pool over on Twitter, which as of right now is both accurate and inaccurate. I'm aiming for a $20k budget, not pool. So there won't be a $20k prize to be won. This might also completely change, and depends on how many sponsors and advertisers I can get on board in time for the LAN. I will also be doing a fundraiser (t-shirts) this winter to help fund everything, which was suggested by a close friend of mine, who is also going to be coming up with the design. I believe the design theme was "I Supported TF2 LAN", or something like that.

Anyway, that's about it for now, as far as LAN news goes.

Finally, I wanted to quickly get some community feedback on prize pools. As of right now, TFCL can host 6v6 at a similar pool level to ESEA Invite, but I'm not sure if I should actually do that. I want ESEA to strengthen its TF2 league, so a $4K pool in TFCL doesn't somehow rival ESEA's Invite pool. I honestly do not want ESEA to die, and I feel like if I were to launch a $4K pool in TFCL, I could end up really harming ESEA's TF2 league, which isn't my intention at all. Though, what do you guys think? Is it wise for me to introduce larger pools into TFCL, or do you think that will come with too many risks?

#4 Need a developer for a commission job in Off Topic
hooliwhat's the website and how much?

As said, the price is totally up for negotiation. So give me a reasonable quote, and we can move forward from there.

The site is psxextreme.com
I'll send more project details in a PM. Though in short, we need to take the article content and convert it to a WordPress compatible database. My partner has code examples I believe which I can send in PM if needed.

Given the schedule, are you open to joining a team as a sub?

#2 Need a developer for a commission job in Off Topic

Just wanted to clarify that this is a paid job. Rates are open to negotiation after I send project details, just to make sure you're able to do what I require. There is a deadline involved with this, so I expect a relatively quick return.

The website in question is a very old gaming news site that was created in 1999. The site is too old to properly maintain, so we need to move it over to a more modern platform, specifically WordPress. So if you think you're able to do this, send me a PM. I am in a bit of a hurry though. Really hoping that somebody from TFTV can help out, as I know people here are talented, and also in need of money. So figured I'd post this offer here first and hope for the best.

#3 Outlast + outlast whistleblower for free in Other Games

Two great horror games. I prefer the originals over Outlast 2. They have a more claustrophobic horror vibe, which is perfect imo.

#2 Major bug in Steam Mobile? Can't sign out? in Off Topic

Found a potential fix.

Spamming the living crap out of the online/offline button on the mobile app seems to reset something, and allow me to go offline... for a bit at least. It pops me back online a short while later, and then seemingly puts me offline again 30 or so minutes after that.
So, I guess the solution is to get angry and spam?

#1 Major bug in Steam Mobile? Can't sign out? in Off Topic

To recreate this issue, sign in on a Windows 10 computer and on an Android phone using the latest app version. Talk with people on both PC and Mobile, and then sign out of your PC. Wait a few minutes, and do the same on mobile. Fair warning though, doing this will almost certainly bug your account. Recommend using an alt if you have one handy. Also, Steam Guard needs to be enabled.

This seems to basically bug your account so you're always online, but set to away. I experienced this shit in the past, but managed to find a fix by forcing Steam to sign me out on all devices. This time around, that isn't working. It keeps telling me that I'm already signed out, even though I'm still appearing as away.

I've contacted Steam support, and should hear back within the next year or two. However, was hoping somebody else on here had a quicker solution? Any messages I receive when "offline" are apparently lost in the ether, as I never get them. So this is a huge inconvenience.

What I've Tried

I've sign out of all of my devices, and powered them down completely.
I've cleared app cache and force quit.
I've uninstalled Steam on mobile. Even with Steam totally uninstalled, it still shows me as online.
Reinstalled. Same issue.

Help?

#1 Need a developer for a commission job in Off Topic

Hey guys. I'm looking for a developer to write a custom tool to help automate a website transfer from classic asp to WordPress. If you're interested in this, send me a PM on here and I'll forward the project details to you.

Oh, and this isn't related to TFCL. Though if you're interested in developing stuff for TFCL as well, I'd love to bring you on board.

Thanks

#5 Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee is free on GOG in Other Games
All_Over_RSits also on humble

I updated the OP with links to the Humble and Steam version. Humble seems to just be the steam copy though, so for anyone that wants to give this game a try, you can install it directly from Steam itself.

I personally suggest getting it on GOG, just so you get a DRM free copy. But nothing's stopping ya from getting both.

#2 Songs that have sentimental value to you in Off Topic

Photograph by Nickelback makes me think of the past, and all the people I moved away from. Some I had very close relationships with, but we lost contact due to distance. (this was before facebook)

Iron Man by Black Sabbath was the song I was listening to when I had my first Mocha Frappuccino from Starbucks. Since then, whenever I drink a Mocha Frappuccino, I always listen to Iron Man. It's like a tradition at this point.

Several Eminem songs from before 2005 always bring me back to a certain moment in my childhood when things were simple, easy, and I was able to just cuss at the world without any major consequences. Two key songs are The Real Slim Shady and My Name Is.

Rooster by Alice in Chains, and In The Air Tonight by Phil Collins, are both songs that my mother always used to listen to when I was growing up. She still listens to them, just not as often. They take me back to my childhood home in the 90's. The hot tub, the yard we used to have. The bar we had in the basement. It's just a giant moment of nostalgia for me.

And finally, the Hamster Dance Song. That song reminds me of my old crazy friend, and how she'd always force me to listen to that stupid song. Same with Hilary Duff songs. They make me think of her, and the relationship we used to have. Nothing romantic or whatever, just childhood memories of us playing video games, playing in the mud outside (she was a huge tomboy), or catching june bugs in my front yard at night in front of the old birch tree. Oh, and the fireflies too. I actually just checked Google Maps, and apparently the new owners cut down the tree. Bastards.

Edit: Got two more.

Video Killed the Radio Star by The Buggles always makes me think of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

Welcome To The Jungle by Guns N Roses always makes me think of my father, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. I remember sitting in front of his plasma TV when the GTA commercial came on, and that song was featured in it. My dad was there, and everything just felt "warm".

#29 ESEA - IM and Looking Forward in TF2 General Discussion

So wait, registration won't be extended? There's only one team in Open right now that's paid up. What happens if teams fail to pay up within the next three days? Cause I honestly don't see that happening. Everybody is just so used to an extension, they sort of treat the first "wave" deadline as a soft limit, not something to be taken seriously.
