you're going to (you have been for 6 months now) hear the wrath of the pug lords until you do one of these things

• allow admins to manually end drafts & give admin to people who actually play pugs frequently
  
• allow captains to end drafts if both of them agree to
  
• allow admins (or both captains) to forcibly add or remove players

the fact that admins can add pugs once they're started but not before they've started makes absolutely no sense and this attitude towards making changes to the site doesn't help

i get that tsc likes to jerk off over his magnificent ELO system and system of automatically banning/restricting people but I thought you would at least be smart enough to realize the root cause of this problem and address it given how much time you've had
if faceit came out with a pug system similar to pugchamp's (in allowing more than 12 people to add and have captains choose players) i wouldn't be surprised if the site died nearly instantly

looks like there's a cup again today at 7est with 0 teams signed up
any1 want to play?

dishsoap's team was the only team that didn't have invite players on it
i agree that there should be more teams signing up for it but you're just trying to make excuses not to sign up
also can we get rid of this notion of things being 'good for tf2' please
its true that with this and the razer cups there was a chance that tons of teams could sign up and it could take off and make it big
but you should play tf2 for the sake of playing tf2 not in an attempt to validate it as a legitimate esport
clearly the problem is that there's either not enough awareness/advertising beforehand or the players would legitimately rather just play pugchamp instead of taking 5 minutes out of their day to register and sign up for faceit

if you want more people to sign up for these tourneys you should definitely advertise them more
had i not read 7 pages into this thread i wouldn't have even known this was happening today
maybe you could get someone on the tftv staff to hook you up with an article or put it in the upcoming events?
or just make a thread for every cup with the times and stuff

how does one acquire a beta code?
are there going to be more released so people can actually play in the cup tn?

Hopefully this will encourage ugc players to finally make the switch to esea

Good to know for when valve finally disallows people to use dx8 and i have to make the switch.

ngl some of these questions are pretty dumb
like the one that says some people are naturally unlucky could be interpreted as some people are lucky and born into wealth etc. or alternatively that some people are naturally lucky in the sense that in board games they roll higher or are somehow naturally inclined to have better odds at winning the lottery (which makes absolutely no sense lol)

Paging bape

I'm going to try to cast pretty much any of the upcoming games that aren't being covered.

Hmu I'd you are interested in being a co-caster or doing camera work (I'm really bad at it but I can stream).

Previous iterations have included the likes of spello, yimi, air, Connor, fenrawr, trippa and phlps

fadd
fremove
force end

these features should be a thing before elo systems

funs hype!

Pretty good aim and smart player. According to hellbent he was once the best engi jumper in the game and somehow manages to play soldier with a 20in 360 (unconfirmed)

the pipe/sticky and pistol ones look pretty cool

That explains it lol
Wasn't the first just found it funniest
