although my drive was half cp the real reason was i installed three os's over each other and the files were causing big conflicts

besides i run over it with my car and then eat the bits that are left

All right, whoo. The main problem I was having was a generally slow computer and lots of ingame stuttering. After reinstalling Windows 8 it does seem a lot faster, but I'm waiting to install TF2 to test the stuttering in tf2.

All right, thanks. If worst comes to worst and i'm still getting problems I guess I can just use dban off a USB then.

Yo,

So I've been having some problems with my computer lately (mostly that I overwrote three different OS's on there without doing a clean install). I just got the Win8 reinstall disc from my manufacturer but I've been told to run DBAN, a program that entirely wipes the drive and makes ~sure~ that no Win 7 drivers/files can come back to haunt me. There's 1 problem: I don't have any clean discs to burn the .iso file to. So I have a question: Is there any other programs like DBAN that don't require an .iso file (pretty sure that's not possible) or, do I even need to use DBAN to ensure my drive is wiped?

IT KEEPS HAPPENING

Every class is viable in 6v6. They're just viable in different situations. Scout, Soldier, Demoman, and Medic are the "standard" loadout because they are either A) versatile, all-around fighters (Scout, Soldier) or B) incredibly useful at all times (Medic, Demo). The reasons classes like Heavy, Engineer, Spy, etc aren't run 24/7 because they are the niche classes--the polar opposite of the good all-around fighters like Scout and Soldier. Instead of the #yolo plays, we need to focus on whether or not Pyro is viable to run full time. The answer, as of now, is no. Pyro has only close-range viability and can get destroyed by a Scout. It's designed solely as a flanking class, and, without the speed of a Scout or the mobility of a Soldier, Pyro just gets beat long-term by having a Roamer or a Scout. The airblast has been explored in and out in the meta and the only ~reliable~ use it has is to airblast back ubers, and with the advent of the QF even that is being somewhat neglected.

Overall: Is Pyro Viable as a full-time class in 6v6? No.

SAY HELLO TO FUZZY WUZZY

i have no idea what i'm watching c:

This thread part 2: return of the thread

I made a similar thread a while back about this--is anyone in the midwest currently getting ping spike problems? I just got off the phone with my ISP and it seems like, again, it's a problem with CenturyLink's bad fiber ring servers.

Please tell me I'm not crazy.

seems like tftv sometimes times out with the twitch timeouts for some reason

:(

Is it just me or have twitch servers been timing out a lot lately? It seems like most of the time twitch streams just won't load for about five minutes at a time.

i'd make an im team just to pick up rays. Greatest streamer NA and can play the videogames damn well.
