I can personally say from experience that there are definitely factors that limit people in their ability to play tf2/ other video games.

I used to have to take significant amounts of antihistamines because of some stupid medical issues. For those that may not know, antihistamines block histamines which cause symptoms in allergies. The side effects include drowsiness and general confusion.

My reaction times suffered greatly and as a result, I couldn't really play tf2 (or any fast paced games) well. I have some really old vods of me streaming tf2 and it's pretty hilarious to see how slow I was to do literally anything. This lasted up through early 2014, when I was able to wane off of the drugs as my symptoms disappeared (and immediately started progressing rapidly faster through divisions/ general skill). I still get spikes of these things and have to take some benadryl infrequently, and when I do I definitely notice a difference in my ability to aim, call, and react. If you ever see me doing absolutely shitty in game, this is (probably lol) why.

As someone who has played in two different mental "states", I can confidently say that it makes a difference. Some people with a naturally slow reaction time or someone who has fine/gross motor issues will definitely be at a disadvantage in a game involving so much DM and movement mechanics, and people that don't agree haven't really put much thought into it.

Played it with my brother and some of his friends. It wasn't bad, but I will not be purchasing it.

I am a completely different person since when I graduated high school, and that was only 2 years ago. Give yourself options. Enjoy your line cook job and finish up school at the same time.

Also all culinary schools want you to have graduated high school, so if you ever want to do that, you'll be happy you have a diploma.

e: "almost most" isnt a phrase that means anything

sick video emkay

this is my new favorite stream highlight.

i 100% would have gone to this if i had more than a weeks notice....

bump n stuff, thank you for the kind comments.

Newbie Mixes shouldn't be thought of as a pug group. It is a completely different environment than just about any pug in that the expectation of every single player is to try their hardest and play as if they were playing in a scrim.

If you're new and want to learn how to play TF2, by all means come by Newbie Mixes this Friday and game. We'll be happy to have you. Please don't stop by because you just want to play a quick pickup game.

Really need coaches tonight. Come win some steam gift cards or hats!

edit: good for a couple minutes. thanks guys!

edit: need more now

We have a bunch of newbies tonight. We'll be raffling a 20ish key hat (of your choosing) to a coach. COME HELP.
