No.

Talent gets overstated by people who don't want to put in work, but it still exists.

Michael Jordan wouldn't have been as good if he was shorter. He wouldn't have been as good if his hands weren't so huge. Good still, sure, but worse.

In video games it's just not as physically obvious.

damn I ran out of room

So, contrary to what some people may have said in this thread, do not skimp on a chair. If you game a lot, get something good and don't do permanent damage to your back. It's an investment in your future. Look at b4nny.

Years of sitting like this

and carrying shade's bitch ass have put stress on his back that is likely irreparable and will most certainly haunt him in future years.

I recommend actually going places and trying out chairs if you can. You don't have to buy from that store, but go sit in the chairs and demo them so you know which to order. Different people prefer different chairs, so if you go off recommendations you're basically going in blind. I know people who like Herman Miller Aerons, I know people who prefer Steelcase or Knoll chairs, I've heard people say those gaming chairs are comfy. I don't game as much anymore, so I use an Eames Group chair, and it suits my needs. Bottom line: you gotta actually go sit in them to find out what's best for you. It's like buying a mattress.

As for good places to buy, idk about Malta, but here in the US, when offices relocate, the cost and logistics of moving all that furniture isn't worth it, so they often quick sell everything to 3rd party retailers. Basically used office furniture stores. You can find quality stuff in very good condition for a fraction of retail price.

I could go out, get a job doing ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING, work one day, then intentionally get fired and I'd still make more money than I'd make playing a season of IM, investing hours into matches and scrims, and then waiting months to collect.

I really doubt anyone is doing this for the cash.

Seriously, this show is amazing. I'm such a hater, but this show is too good. Please watch this show, you probably won't regret it. It's very probably the best "adult cartoon" I've seen.

I have a friend who used to just post random youtube comments as replies to people in forum arguments (on tftv, too). God help our world when he gets his hands on this.

great bikes, I just bought one a month ago, and love it, you can see my video of it. same color and everything. I did how ever lay it over, but was only sitting on side of road, and its so heavy the mud gave way on the right side of me, but I did managed to pick it up, It did break the brake foot pedal off though, now I have to buy one. Do you know of any good websites to buy parts for this type of bike. Not sure where to buy from since so many scams out there. But anyway its a great bike.

Assuming we mean underrated by the general population, not people in prem/invite, right?

The AS east main server always seems really stuttery/lag spikey. The ohiguv or w/e it's called server is buttery smooth by comparison.

Based on your definition, I'd say there are at least two ways to bomb from position 1. I can show you if you want.

Also, people who say Spire is "gay" are usually the same people who get airshotted on like 50% of their jumps, never re-jump, and just spam rockets and shotty upward while hiding.

What do these people do when they actually have to contest the spire? "Solly on spire, not jumping him... he took 19... why won't this nerd come down?" Like, I realize it's been a long time since I've played... but I'm pretty sure that's still far less practical than any counter-jumping/surfing shenanigans.

Which two only have one way to bomb?

The train isn't even a good place to be against a decent scout rofl.

It's also likely the reason tf2 is still alive at all. i46 Mixup was a huge gamechanger for even the NA scene alone - between their playstyle, and the playstyles of the teams that emerged as a response (b4nny's HRG, and eventually froyo), there was crazy meta progression... and that's not even getting into what it did for EU.

At the time of i46, EU was in the dark ages, as evidenced by their best team getting dumped on by a team with a dude famous for offclassing engi and another dude who probably did more damage to himself than to the other team in some fights.

I46 rekindled EU's fire, and gave way to teams like ESPI, Broder, and the lineage of the top teams that play today. International i-series lans even gave Aussie superstars some exposure. The community had never been closer. Players weren't just myths anymore. New rivalries were formed. i49, and i52 were probably the most hype tf2 lans I've ever watched.

None of that hype would exist if the players were just going to "hang out and get drunk." The quality of matches would suffer tremendously. Why is everyone so keen on wanting the players to go somewhere to "have a good time?" lol.

Oh wait, they aren't. No one actually gives a fuck about whether the players have fun or not. They just want to see an i-series with certain players there. If i-series lans were some strenuous, grueling, completely un-fun experience, people would still be like "SUCK IT UP AND DO IT FOR THE COMMUNITY."

There's sure a lot of talk of "duty to attend lan for the community" coming from people/players who have never been in that position.

The players aren't the ones being selfish. The people bitching at players to go to lans even though they don't want to go - those are the selfish people.

DING DING.

I was even sympathetic to Mike/Epsi not wanting to go to that one really short notice lan (dreamhack, I think - 'gonna be honest, I don't really know much about it, and I didn't even watch the lan, but it's more on principle).

You're gonna tell me, this dude, who's given thousands of hours of his time, and unquantifiable amounts of dedication and resolve to this game should go to lan with a paper version of his team, with ringers, that he doesn't even want to play for, take a probable financial loss, take a definite tf2 loss at the lan, disgrace the team name he and his comrades (some of which aren't even gonna be there) slaved to build - you're gonna expect someone to do that just to keep up the delusion that someday, valve is going to get a clue/give a fuck? That sponsors are gonna jump all over a 10 year old game with cartoon characters and goofy hats?

Rofl. Good god. These players are better people than me, apparently. My blood boils a little just thinking about it. If I poured my soul into this game and then some random people who haven't done shit for tf2 other than populate a server/watch a stream came at me with that bullshit, I'd fucking lose it. I'd be dropping bars for days on these boards. No thread would be safe, lol. I'd show people what a toxic community really looks like. Real Talk.
