my game takes about 2 minutes to start. it takes about 1 minute on the "preparing to launch" box and then takes another minute sometimes more load the game menu. it just gets stuck on the loading screen with the tf2 background. is there anyway to fix this so that my game launches quicker?

its a glitch. when you refresh the +frag will be gone

i didnt mean this thread to be about tf2. i was talking real life stuff like school, sports, work, ect. i like what you guys said though. i think hardwork can be applied to all aspects of life.

what are your thoughts on talent vs handwork? do you think there is such thing as a person being born with a talent without working hard at it or is any talent a product of the hardwork you put in.

get brad on the show

nice alt dflame

who is liko and why does he act like hes from brazil and talk about 200 ping? isnt he from panama and have slightly over 100 ping??

ive been watching a few streams lately and ive noticed some of the streamers saying that they have bad computers (shade especially). it got me thinking, if a player is good on a shitty computer than they have been using for a while how would it effect said player if he/she upgraded to a top of the line setup? would that player be able to increase his or her skills?

someone is trying to pull a tragic and get a tf2 girlfriend. fievel is bad lol you might be thinking of her scout partner rays, he is actually decent

for the last couple of seasons people have been making threads of up and coming players that are not in invite or have been in invite. post your list (please be honest and dont only mention friends). here is my list (i might have messed up on who roams and pockets)

open
scout: Sunny / Dumbbrain
pocket: Auburn
roamer: Mangachu
demo: Spadez
medic: Cash50

IM
scout: Giffy / YouMustMike
pocket: Grape
roamer: Boink
demo: Xalox
medic: Think

kirby went huge that game bahahahah 4 kills

what time is mid afternoon????

i really like the idea of open players casting matches that arent top invite. its pretty cool to see people your own level getting casted and its a good way for the casting community to grow. it would be cool if this became a regular thing.

the thing is im so used to being really good but now i feel handicapped because i have to play on notebook since i moved into my dorm. when ever i die to someone i know i would have killed them if i was on my home pc. i try and tell myself "dont worry nick if u were at home you would have won that fight" but it still gets me worked up

tell me how to have fun while playing tf2. sometimes i wish i was a noob again so i would take the game less serious. how do i enjoy the game again? i get so angry when i play mge, dm, and pugs. i see all these streamers having so much fun and laugh when they get air shotted. idk what to do please help D:
