#15 how would you guys like a monthly tf2 tourny? in TF2 General Discussion

AustereOne Night Cups really don't happen too often and you still need to attend as part of an ETF2L team which is slightly inconvenient.

You can def do them as a fun team, so it doesn't necessarily have to be your normal 6v6 team, but yeah it's not the most convenient.

DrPloxoNo incentive, believe it or not folks don't like playing against invite pug teams when there's nothing to gain from it.

It's some baby shit and they should rise to the challenge, but whatever

I guess one of the advantages of the one night cups is there is a high-med-low bracketing. Could something similar have worked for fnf?

Why did Friday Night Fights fail? I found it very entertaining

If this was in europe, I'd love it (that said, we have our one night cups, but those aren't as frequent). As it is, sounds like a good idea!

#54 World Cup in Off Topic

Being English is embarrassing and awful, so go Chile! One of the few teams who press high up the pitch and have a few really good players. Always a fun team to watch.
I think Brazil will probably win it, they have got some good results in the past 6 months or so, and made Spain look silly in the confederations cup. Can see France doing well, as they have a really easy draw and have also looked sharp in friendlies.

#70 Music in TF2 General Discussion

I find it quite hard to concentrate, so I never listen while mixing or scrimming, but when I mge/dm I like to have either ambient or classical. I find it genuinely helps me focus
some examples of this
if anyone listens to similar stuff and has recommendations, hit me up

blinKGarden:

If he said it to her face, i'd 1000% agree with you. He said it on his nerdy tf2 stream to a bunch of kids who don't know her, he doesn't associate with her anymore and she'll never see it. It's the truth but you make it as if he said it to her face. Truth is she's over weight and needs to get in shape. Or she's fat. You wouldn't say it that way to her or anyone if you're a decent human being. I HIGHLY doubt Ruwin would ever say that to a girls face unprovoked.

The point I am trying to make is that it adds to this culture where is acceptable to completely judge a woman based on her appearance and make her feel thoroughly shitty about it.

Mr_Owl*snip*

I hate to tell you this but if you're looking to tf2 players as role models or examples of how to carry yourself irl, you've fucked up somewhere along the line and you deciding to call a girl fat or not isn't gonna change much at all.

Doesn't matter if people ought to do it or not. The fact is people do look up to these people and do imitate them.

blinKIt's calling a spades a spades. Would you call Governor Chris Christie skinny? I'd call him fat. I wouldn't really poke fun at him for it as it's a disease. It can be fixed though. Seeing how I work in the industry of weight loss I see it all day every day. People don't need to be told they're fat but the ones who know they need to do something about it as it's a slower form of suicide get my praise. It is what it is and I don't know why it bothers people to hear the truth for once. I'm sure every single person that had a problem with him calling someone fat has called someone fat before in their life.

The difference is context. A woman's value is very often linked to their weight and appearance. In Ruwin's comment he said he lost interest in her only because she gained weight.
Stat attack:
50% of adverts aimed at girls mention appearance, 0% for boys. 47% of young girls consider themselves overweight, when only 29% are. 10 million American women have eating disorders. Add this to the fact that eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental illness.

WithADanceNumberPersonally I think it's rediculous that streamers should have to watch what they say. If you dont like what the streamers says or does, watch a different stream. Most people who stream will do it because they wanna show something to people, but at the same time they are also feeding thier ego. It's a pastime that caters to narcissism and that can lead to some shit getting said. Either way, streamers come and go. And sometimes the go in an extravagant way (r.i.p PYYYOUR).

Yeah, I really don't agree. These people are looked up to by a myriad of others, so their words carry weight. If your favourite tf2 player starts telling you that it's okay to shame someone about their weight in such a way, this is undoubtedly harmful (especially given the context).
If it was simply a case of showing people things, they should turn off their facecam and mic.

nothing resembling an apology there, but there was a racial slur. hmmmmmmmmmm ok. the rhetoric in that video was pretty bad, plenty of ad hominem. I also don't think the 'If you don't like it, don't watch' argument holds weight. I object more to the fact that you're a visible member of the community who lots of people look up to and you're saying/doing some pretty unpleasant stuff...
