solid player didnt watch too much im this season but from what i saw he did well dunno about low invite necessarily but theres been plenty of im playoffs soldiers who went on to play low invite even tho they didnt win or whatever i dont rly see a problem if anything it says hes dedicated enough to actually want to go through the low invite grind rather than just playing im forever

Saam is unironically a really good caller and when he's practicing and trying he is a solid scout. Also everyone on this team is mad chill, I had a lot of fun playing for them in preseason and ringing throughout. I remember being pretty surprised by how good earthworker was doing, dude hit mad pipes and was a solid demo. Lolguy despite his meme name is actually really good at med and has tons of potential. Crazy surfs and arrows and shit, smart positioning for the most part, and dedicated to improve by watching demos and shit. Should be invite level in a few seasons for sure (watch out rocket u got some competition for up n coming med main xd)
I also wanna shout them out for sticking together, more teams need to do this and build synergy over the seasons (instead of trying to cut ur way to the top and then dying.....)
indecency"methinks"
methinks tasheem is a noob......
Washed Up Like The Shorelines TM is a much more fitting title methinks....
Please do not slander the name of THE MACHINE.
mustardoverlordI knew I would get a response like this, but it makes no sense. I offclass because it's fun for me, I enjoy playing pyro/sniper/spy, and I imagine others feel the same way. I also enjoy winning. Should I ask the other team to let me win so I can have as much fun as possible? Of course not, it's not their responsibility to make sure I have an enjoyable pug experience, that's on me. In the same vein, it's their responsibility to find a way to have fun in a pug regardless of what me or anyone else on my team is doing. If they can't, that's their problem.
The corollary to all this is what indecency said- if guys on your own team want the pug to end and get out of there and you're artificially delaying it by fucking around, there's not much you can really do about it without talking to an admin. That's why I have no problem enforcing rules, not just against offclassing, but against people fucking around in general, if enough people on their own team have a problem with it. I just don't get why fucking around on pyro is so much worse than fucking around on soldier. We both know, for instance, that I am doing a lot more to help my team on pyro than you are when you're trying to see if you can get reverse 6-dommed or break the deaths record or whatever. Why is it so much worse?
The point you're missing is that the community came to an agreement when they decided to make pug systems that if someone offclasses for a significant portion of a pug it's simply not fun for anyone other than the person doing it. Yeah you can be trying hard and doing well playing sniper the whole game but does anyone want to add to a pug environment where that shit is allowed? That's just not something people want to deal with. Maybe if there was money on the line or literally anything other than playing pugs strictly for the sake of enjoying yourself playing some tf2, then I can see allowing whatever alternative offclassing meta shit because you are trying your very hardest to win. But given that there's nothing like that I see no reason to forego the majority's enjoyment of playing video games for some dipshit to have a blast playing an offclass for the whole game lol.
I do agree with you on the point about having a strict number for how long is permissable or not being a bit silly, because if for example the game is a super big stalemate and you end up holding your own last a lot and go engineer, or you play sniper to break the stalemate, you can probably get over 7.5 mins (1/4 of the 30 min pug) offclassing even if it's completely fair play. Doing it to mid or pushing out from one last to another though is where I think it's reasonable to draw the line.
Also the deaths record thing was literally in a pugscrim 2 years ago, and im pretty sure ive only ever done that sorta reverse 6 dom shit in inhouse pugs around that long ago as well.
mustardoverlordI maintain that offclassing rules as currently constructed are dumb
why should I care if the way I or my teammate is playing is pissing off the other team? isn't that the point?
I think it should only be against the rules if your own team complains that you're throwing/extending the pug/fucking around
some people like to play tf2 for fun, unlike you
NurseyYeeHawno point having this rule if its not going to be enforcedthis is really aggravating to read because no rule can be enforced if no one fucking reports it
this is true but it'd also be a lot better if there were more admins so people would go 'oh x player is admin i better not snipe for ten minutes against them and get banned' rather than the possibility of being reported if someone gets mad enough about it
edit: also honestly just crestrict insom for a week or something then maybe he'll have a reason to show up on time since he can actually get subbed lol
indecencyu and kawa are known for doing that same thing in pugs tho wat
edit:bearodactyl insom's Full Time Pyro gameplay from their last to our lasti meant this
ok ur not wrong but i also literally haven't played that class like at all in 6 months or however long it was since it got nerfed into nonexistence
NurseyWill discuss with erynn about implementing better offclassing rules and readying up within a certain time frame.
would be good if it was like faceit and had a timer or whatever, but as a community we can also just decide to sub people if they haven't showed for 5 mins, from what ive heard/seen from limited experience it's not really a problem in eu at all--cause these people just get subbed and can't get away with it every pug
another thing that would probably be worth talking to erynn about is giving more people admin, the number of na admins who actually play pugs frequently or are on to fix issues is super small
idk who would be most responsible or whatever but there definitely should be more people who play pugs frequently who can fix server issues without having to hope that nursey or jarrett or whoever aren't afk and can help u out
tojobearodactyledit: after delaying the pug 15 minutes after the server showed up 5 minutes after the pug finished picking i was blessed to have to deal with the presence of insom's Full Time Pyro gameplay from their last to our lastur just pissed insom went 5-15 on scout and won
god bless
ban him tho
i mean hes been doing this shit for fuckin years ever since like pugna and tf2mix irc pugs its dumb as fuck
also someone in mumble said 'i think its time for a thread' before that pug so i made it lol
literally takes 15 mins to show up to every pug without fail
enough

Beat me to it this album is sooooo good I wish it was on Spotify. Nonagon infinity is fun to play like mge or jump maps to and pretend you're in a sick edit going hard, but whenever I try to play 6s bumping it I just go for stupid airshots and jump in cause it's such hype music and I feel like I'm in a frag vid lmao. I think mind fuzz is a good middleground for pugs and stuff.
Hammer & Ebsickle
edit: wtf why didn't they name the team that when falking hammer and ebsikl were on a team together, missed opportunity
