Edit: Well the team I joined has died so I'm looking again. I'm going to streamline the post information for everyone.

I am super dedicated to playing and I want to play on a team very badly. I'm still looking as Scout (high Open-low/mid IM) but I am also interested in Medic (feel confident I could play mid Open+). Medic would be a learning experience but again I'm really dedicated and know I'll improve a lot quickly and early on. My last two seasons got cut short and I would just really love to play with a competent and fun team.

I'm available any day at any time to scrim/review/talk and whatnot. I have two seasons with DT3/Stoop Nation (ESEA-O), one with Simple Machines (CEVO-O). All in all only adds up to about 2 seasons experience though.

I could likely attend, sounds fun.

I don't believe the monitor listed above is 1080p actually, so I'd look into something else if that's really desired. You should look in this thread http://teamfortress.tv/forum/thread/331-the-120hz-monitor-thread for some good options.

Sorry about that, looks like some roster things have changed around. My apologies for the thread.

To figure out the DPI your particular mouse is running at, the most common tool is the Enotus test, but it is known for giving some inaccurate results, so it isn't a definitive measure, more so to give you a general idea about your mouse and its sensor.

With that said, you can try getting your same sensitivity calculating with the DPI you measure with Enotus. Your best bet though is to get an old-fashioned ruler and measure out the length of your 360*s until you get the in/360 you're looking for as Stabby suggested.

In my preference, I'd rather go with a tiny bit more latency than deal with wonky mouse movement, since again that bit of latency doesn't make a large difference at all. So 1150 over 2300, but again, that's all your preference.

Smaka's right, the variable DPI is seen with Zowies, though as he said it is consistent per mouse, so it would only be an issue if you were only looking for a very specific DPI / replicating your exact same sensitivity.

From most reports I've seen, jitter is only really noticeable at the 2300 step; here are some Paint tests (courtesy of takasta in his FK review), it can be hard to discern with just images and ultimately it's if the jitter is an issue for you or not. http://www.overclock.net/t/1369780/lightbox/post/19486394/id/1342727/user/282230

I've never much looked into why Zowie utilizes these DPI steps in particular, mainly just looking at the mice themselves to see if I'm interested. Sorry I can't answer that.

Yep, the smoothing on the Rival and DA 2013 is noticeable. The g400 has a flawless sensor, it's the updated g400s (with the new and "improved" Delta Zero firmware) which adds the 4000 DPI step and, simultaneously, some smoothing to the mouse.

For recommendations, anything with a flawless sensor, including Zowie. If you're looking to avoid that latency, any mouse using the standard DPI step setup should work. I currently use the Roccat Savu myself, in preference of the Kone Pure Optical since I have to be a little picky on shape due to fingertip gripping. G400, Savu, Kone Pure Optical, Kana V2 are what I'd recommend; all of them have some varying minor issues which may be a big deal for you, I'd say look into these, if you don't like them than the EC2 is good, Zowie does make quality mice and the sensor issue is so minimal I wouldn't make too many sacrifices just for that.

Zowie mice suffer from a bit of an issue regarding the sensor and it's use of non-native DPI steps. For the Avago 3090 sensor, native DPI steps as previously mentioned are 400 / 800 / 1600 / 3200 (although Avago has done some SROM updates, it might be 800 / 1600 / 3200 / 4000 now, but that's a little irrelevant). To achieve non-native DPI steps (450 / 1150 / 2300), the mouse sensor has to be interpolated, meaning additional calculations must be made to achieve these DPIs. With these extra processes, there is the addition of a minute amount of latency (while I can't pull an exact measurement off the top of my head, just imagine playing with 1-2 extra ping, in the same vein of monitor response time). Note that this is quite minimal, and the majority of owners on threads discussing this state that even with such an effect present, no difference can be noticed in control of general movement. I believe the 2300 DPI step is the best at reducing this latency, but unfortunately the higher DPI comes with notable jitter, as with most mice, so most users stick with the lower steps.

So! Overall, Zowie make extremely solid mice. The sensor issue is quite minimal, the only reason to avoid would be if you are extremely picky about sensor performance, but even then I'd say go ahead and try one of their mice for yourselves anyways, again this latency is hardly/not noticeable for the large majority (and you're still getting a flawless sensor). Hopefully this explanation helps, apologies for the wall of text.

Bump, will be available all this weekend.

Bump, still looking for tryouts.

Hey there everyone I'm Split, looking for high Open or IM as Scout. Played 2 seasons of ESEA on the same team, DT3 / Stoop Nation. Was looking like playoffs last season until roster changes screwed over the team, primarily my fault since I had to leave for real-life priorities. That's all taken care of now though so I'm looking to dedicate to a team again. I'm free pretty much all the time in the afternoons every day, I enjoy scrimming, fine with demo reviews, etc. Played more aggressive and more passive Scout before so I can generally adapt to whatever your team would like. ESEA or CEVO is perfectly fine with me.

Modified BXHUD, I prefer keeping things on the periphery.

If you advocate me getting to off-class I'm cool with whoever.

But strong comms/good personality are fairly important for Pocket on our team, looking forward to try-outs.

I've known Pocket for a while now, he's been making huge strides in improving his game over the last couple of months to an impressive degree. At his current state I'd say he's about low-Open, and with his dedication I only see him becoming better and better as the season progresses. He also relatively chill in regards to personality, so long as others are willing to be serious at the appropriate times for the game.

Karova definitely has a lot of potential which a mentor would only help with refining. He's fairly chill and open to criticism, hopefully someone will take the lead and help this guy out.
