I am also interested in putting together an Ultiduo tournament this weekend that would involve teams from all divisions. Need to get this done first.

Presented by the Portland Burnsiders and Pug.tf:
The RGL.Main Pre-Season Social

Yyyaaaoooooo!!!!

Due to the week delay in the RGL.gg season, the Portland Burnsiders decided to put together a little mini-tournament with some of the other teams in the Main division. While there are no prizes on offer, the little bit of organization and coverage should add gravitas to the scrims while also getting everyone a little more familiar with some of the teams in Main.

This was very hastily planned, and the format is pretty limited, so there are only 8 teams involved. Apologies if any of the Main teams I didn't chat with feel left out, I just started contacting people we'd recently scrimmed against until we had 8.

The format will be as follows: Teams will be drawn into two groups of 4. For simplicity's sake we'll be sticking with 5-cp maps. The teams in each group will play each-other with the mp_timelimit set to 45. The first to 5 points will be counted as the result, otherwise it's the final score and draws are allowed. "World Cup" scoring will be used for the group stage If it is a quick match, teams are welcome to use the rest of the match time as a 2nd half.

Group stage 1 5/20 930pm est - 45 min x CP_Gullywash
Group Stage 2 5/20 1030pm est - 45 min x CP_Sunshine
Group Stage 3 5/21 930pm est - 45 min x CP_Snakewater

Final Match 5/21 1030 pm est -
After the Group Stage, the teams will play against their corresponding placement from the other group. This match will be 2x 30 mins on CP_Process and CP_Villa.

Coverage:
Casters are encouraged, but not particularly confirmed yet. I've spoken with some outlets that are interested and hopefully we can arrange coverage of all the different Group A and Group B matches on different streams. If anyone is interested in getting STV information and co-ordinating casts lmk. There will be plenty of games going on. Players are encouraged to stream. I don't have a punny hashtag and specifically avoided calling it a MiXer, but shouting out the Burnsiders somewhere would be appreciated.

Participating Teams:
Portland Burnsiders
Give me five minutes
Ultralord and the Sheens
Glovebox Glock
Pastel Mirage
Hairline Treatment Centre
The First Ever Yarn! Team Ever
Rodney and The Stangers *Pending Confirmation*

I'll draw groups and set match-up order tmrw. Shout-out to the Space Cadets who are interested in playing and are the back-up team at the moment.

Toronto would be a great place for a LAN and definitely collaborating with a college could provide the community with a great venue.

Like Kevin Garnet said, anything is possible.

Start with something small and manageable, build your way up.

The Portland Burnsiders work on their second single is progressing rapidly. We're looking for a lady to record the hook but otherwise things are already very close to being done.

While we're convinced we're gonna have the best rap song of the season we thought it'd be fair to give some of the other teams in RGL a heads up. We wouldn't want to be accused of not having given our opposition a chance to be prepared to compete.

Who will have the best bars? Reference the hottest memes? The smoothest edited accompanying frag vid?

Only time will tell.

"just enjoy yourself? why do you have to get caught up in all this shit?"

Says Ruwin right before he quits the scene because he couldn't deal with being criticized for bullying.

I def remember the incident, and it wasn't a huge deal but he did look like a jerk for his actions. Sometimes you gotta take the L, admit a mistake and move on, but it seemed like Ruwin himself couldn't just get past the fact some people where annoyed at him for his failed joke. He's active on Twitter again and has been doing some gaming, I wonder what he could have accomplished though if he had managed to move past this incident and kept growing his impact in TF2.

Keep listin that history y'all. I've been slacking on sorting top 10 plays of the decade, but it's still on the to do list.

Oh snap. Just saw that, nice pun.

I just read this article the other day, inspired me to step up my skin care routine. Here you go in case anyone needs in: https://medium.com/@keepingitKyle/skincare-for-morons-8e6b0377c774

eXciting stuff

Please don't burn yourself out for the sake of the community. The only way we're going to be here for a long time is if we take care of ourselves and each other. Others are willing to help and it's okay to step away for a bit if you need to.

Yyyyaaaaooooo!!!
