people often try to find the 'best' mentor they can in hopes that they will be spoon fed all the information they need to know to improve at the game but unfortunately it doesn't really work like that, at a certain point you have to look at your own mistakes and learn on your own

as others have said there are so many good resources out there at this point that you can easily get the basic fundamentals down and work on specific set plays and coordination with your team, a lot of plays that invite mentors may tell you to do won't even work on a lower level team because of the lack of coordination

edit: another point to understand is: there's no money in this game, in all honesty nobody wants to spectate your open level scrims every night and give you tips, why rely on someone else's commentary anyways? only you can find what works best for you and your team, you can't rely on someone else to make you improve

favorite LAN's you've attended?

okay but for real why not just let all the teams play and add an extra week to the season (there's already week 9 to make up for missed games)

I've brought up this point before about class restrictions in adv making it difficult for teams to feed into invite, hopefully RGL takes this into account and lets them play their mains in advanced if they don't qualify (rather than the team dying)

extremely lame decision but in fairness u dont just message an admin that your team is dead unless you're 200% sure

RGL definitely should have had all of this planned out way earlier, the teams should've played each other a week ago and settled it. Isn't the season starting literally tomorrow?

this place sucks dick ur def better off anywhere else but here

Quite simply, Epic.

I can confirm, aim is a dick. Dude almost scammed triplemint out of SIXTY (60) dollars just the other night. Unsubbed & reported.

Edit: This AimIsADick guy is a hackerman, I would steer clear of him cause if he can do this with the tf2 source code leak, who knows what else he's capable of

I found a workaround by disabling high DPI scaling but it's not entirely ideal as the icons are pretty blurry (def better than the alternative tiny mumble tho). Also when I drag a chrome window from my 4k monitor onto my 1080p monitor now the text gets all blurry and awful looking and it doesn't factor in the scaling, despite me only changing the setting for mumble.

not sure if anyone else has had this problem but mumble seems to scale really poorly on my new 4k display

ive tried messing with windows scale settings and it seems to be pretty bugged regardless unless it's on 100 or 125% but at that point the display is almost unusable because everything is so small

props for doing the write up but idk what weird altered history led you to believe soapy was on witness gaming, dingo was on MAL/witness, and that krypt hadn't yet established himself in invite (I believe he's gotten 4th twice, third once, and played like half a season for froyo as a pocket sub)

Damn this is actually super cool, what exactly determines 'events', is it just like the cheat feed type stuff or logs airshots?

I have a bunch of old demos that I bookmarked after the fact but don't feel like looking back and finding the exact
timestamp, would it be possible to just see all the timestamps of your kills for example? (e.g., for medic u probably dont have many kills per match but one of them might be good and frag worthy despite not being a 3k or registering as an airshot on logs)

Not sure if this is how it works already but I think the best way to start would be to set elo by RGL div, so invite players don't have to do preliminary ranking games vs newcomers and ruin the fun (I'd imagine RGL thought this out tho)

Also I feel like changing elo solely off results in pugs might be a bad idea, when pugchamp came out people tried super hard playing vs b4nny and he had the lowest elo on the entire site for a period of time--imagine if having a low elo actually could de-rank you and prevent you from playing invite pugs for example
