I wanna give a big shoutout to everyone who came. It still amazes me that every single RGB (and previously GXL) gets like ~100 TF2 players. Even though I don't play this game anymore, it still makes me really happy that all of you get together to play and have a good time. :3
See you at the next one!
Will repost this a couple more times over the next 48 hours for visibility, but please make sure your team is registered with me by 10:30 AM on Saturday at the very latest. The tournament will start at 11 AM on Saturday.
I will be accepting registration anytime during Friday. It's $5 per player (or $30 per team). I need the entire $30 team payment at once, with the name of all six players and your team name.
If you have any questions or concerns, please ask me. :3

Tery_Also do we know if there'll be PC rentals?
We are still in talks with nearby places to try to make this a thing. No official word just yet.
This has been on my mind ever since the last LAN, but I want to gather everyone's input on it.
Does everyone want group stage, still? As of right now, it's only used for seeding. Group stage adds on a couple of hours to the tournament as it is, and some people have expressed to me that they want time to do other things / play other tournaments / etc.
Hi all,
It's that time again. :3

FAQ – TF2 tournament (DETAILS TENTATIVE)
How can I play in the tournament?
You’ll need to find a team if you haven’t already found one. Keep in mind that the tournament will be 6 vs 6. This thread will have plenty of teams looking for players, so make sure to post here (and don’t forget to include what class you play). If you can’t find a team, there will certainly be pick-up teams made while at the event.
Will there be a buy-in for the tournament?
Yes, it is $5 per person (or $30 per team).
What will the prizes and payout be?
1st Place: 60% of total prize pool + additional prizes TBA
2nd Place: 30% of total prize pool
3rd Place: 10% of total prize pool
I’m interested in sponsoring the tournament with cash and/or prizes. How should I contact you about this?
If you’re interested in sponsoring the tournament, feel free to send me a private message on here or send an email to one of our sponsorship guys: sponsorship@rgblan.org
When is the tournament?
The entirety of the TF2 tournament will be on Saturday. It will start at 11 AM.
What is the format of the tournament?
6 players per team. There will be a group stage (for seeding) followed by double elimination.
What are the rules?
Class-limits (NA rules):
2 Scouts
2 Soldiers
2 Pyros
1 Demoman
1 Heavy
1 Engineer
1 Medic
2 Snipers
2 Spy
Time-limit / win-limit (EU/NA hybrid rules):
30 minute time-limit
If a team wins 5 rounds (or 4 on koth), that team wins.
If the game is tied after 30 minutes, the tiebreaker will be decided by golden cap. If this occurs in group stage, there will be a 10 minute time limit, and if there is no victor by that time, then whoever controls mid is the winner. If this occurs in the double elimination bracket, there will be no time limit for golden cap.
What maps will be in use?
Whatever the current ESEA map pool is at the time.

Post in the thread if you need a team.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask in the thread or PM me.
It's rarely used anymore. As ondkaja mentioned, it was used when LAN centers barely had any desk space. Cooller doesn't use it anymore, and he's probably one of the first people that really made it known.
There's no real advantage to using it, it's just preference (and again, if you lack desk space). I used it for a little while, and maybe 1-2 LANs where I didn't have much space. It kinda hurt my wrist after a while, and typing was very inconvenient. It won't make you better, and any belief where you think it is making you play better is purely psychological.
I'll make a thread when registration is about to go live, which is very soon.
ShiftaTheFragileThis reminds me of something I tested in 2008 as medic. If you pull out your melee, the medic hunches over. If you look in a certain direction (I forget exactly), it's literally impossible to be headshot because your head isn't visible. There wasn't many times where I used this because it's better to just not put yourself in the sights of a sniper (and obviously not helpful against a full-charge body shot).
I mean if you turn away from the sniper and look downwards you can't be headshot, or it's almost impossible. People do that a lot
That's what I said? lol
But what I was trying to say is that with melee out, because medic is hunched over in a certain way, you can look in a specific direction and it's actually impossible to be headshot. Not maybe, not sometimes, but actually impossible.
If melee isn't out, it's possible for a headshot still if you look down and away, just not as large of a hitbox. This is the case for most of the cast.
