#23 the worst thing your team leader did in TF2 General Discussion
fygOnly those with elite open knowledge remember this. (and probably also s23 drama alert nation)

fyg u probably deserve to be put on trial yourself for some of the TL stuff u pulled on drama alert nation.

Anyway, own anecdote. One of my first hl teams that I was going to play on died in preseason. Can't remember what happened, roster issues probably, but I stopped talking to the team leader after that.

Some years later I see him make a truly baffling thread on tftv. Maybe some people remember this: the OP of that thread had an ingame screenshot on I think metalworks but his game was heavily modified. Keep in mind this was pre vtf crosshairs/transparent viewmodels etc., so a lot of the customization stuff in game was unknown. Had like left handed viewmodels that were cut off in some way, weird text on the hud, and I distinctly remember people clowning on him for all the extra modifications and his pink heart shaped crosshair lmao. I don't even remember the exact point of the thread, to show off his mods? Escapes me now.

Years later I hear his name again and apparently somehow he became maybe the most prolific ddoser this game has ever known, at the very least for highlander. Probably ddosed 6s matches too though lmao. May have also developed cheats.

Sometimes I wonder if that team just lived in 2013 would things have turned out differently.

#17 Default scrim and match times in TF2 General Discussion

Feel like trying dictate fairness by estimating who gets screwed over harder by the times is mostly a pointless endeavor. Like brody said I'm sure plenty of west coasters get filtered because it's literally not possible for them to work and play tf2. But this is mostly, if not entirely, a concern for the adults; for people still in high school (or god forbid below) the early times are probably strictly beneficial compared to east coast. So while some west coast adults are barricaded they had the opportunity earlier to play a significant amount - you can note that of the invite players Slicerogue listed most (maybe all) started in high school. By contrast on the east coast you can never really escape the sleep deprivation no matter your age with the exception of not having morning classes in college or something. Trying to rank who is the more tragic soul - the battle-hardened west coaster invite player who wants to relive the glory days vs. east coaster high school player who has the passion and skill to be the next big invite player but has to wake up at 6 AM to go to geometry class is kind of funny but probably has no real use.

Think it just makes sense to cater to the existing playerbase while trying to completely screw over as little people as possible.

#6 Keeping Team Recognition in TF2 General Discussion

I would just call ppl who do this shit and cringe.

Also iirc bootie time and bombinomicon are banned not just cause they are annoying but also cause they omega break spy (disguises have no feet with the former and i think latter just breaks DR or something).

#4 RGL Sixes Season 19 Announcements and Updates in TF2 General Discussion

Is there an objective pre-set cutoff needed for an unlock to be banned (or unbanned for that matter)? For anything on the extreme it probably doesn't matter but for anything contentious in the future adjusting the threshold post-hoc after looking at the data would obviously be pretty bad. Not trying to claim that this has happened before or anything, just wondering.

As an example for Smogon (unofficial pokemon singles) the threshold for ban is 60%+ among people who make the requirements to vote. It's harsh in the sense that people who do not make recs do not get any say (though this is def a necessary evil for a game like pokemon); a "smoothed" out version would just be to weight votes by division but the choice of weight, like the cutoff itself, is arbitrary. But at the very least pre-specifying something is better than doing it afterwards.

#66 ban loch in TF2 General Discussion
brody9est scrims are maybe doable for west coast job havers but 8est is just not possible

Yeah HL 8:30 I've always wondered how the west coasters make it work; if you're a 9-5er with an average 30 minute commute you make it back just on time with no time to eat/relax a bit after job or w/e. God forbid you have longer commute, hit traffic, boss doesn't let you clock out exactly at five, work different hours etc. etc.

My only guess is (besides historical inertia) that it works because:
1. Not that many west coast HL players
2. Most players are in school or are NEETs (HL I believe skews younger?)
3. You only have to deal with it once a week on Monday since scrims are on weekends.

But for 6's point #3 no longer holds and possibly #1 and #2 are less true.

#10 Data Scientist Requesting Help Building Dashboard in Projects

Idk if you've seen this before but may be of interest. Log analyzer seems most analogous.

If you're willing to explain more about technical details of your modeling I'd certainly be interested. OP is a little vague (understandably) but I think enough ppl here would be curious about the technical side also.

#9 The Virus in Off Topic

Unlike the other posters I think like you reece I have a full blown fully progressed version of The Virus. As an example for persona 4 I literally did what you described for p5 on my first run, constantly reloading saves while doing so, because I have extreme mental illness. This was blind also for reference. There's basically no point in doing this (especially since there is also ng+ content lmao) but it would legitimately bother me if I did not optimize my days correctly.

That being said my experience is not exactly the same.

reecedo any of you also suffer from The Virus? id love to hear about your many woes that come with it.

For me I think I'm too far gone because I don't see it as a downside outside of wasting a ridiculous amount of time; tbf this is a pretty fucking bad downside. But in terms of enjoyment it has not diminished for me; I don't really find it stressful and it serves the same purpose as I imagine casual gaming does for others.

I think roguelikes are far and away the best game to play if you have The Virus though. It avoids the problem of "by the time you are done optimizing, the game is over" that you described with minecraft, avoids pacing problems that hyperoptimization can cause for story games like jrpgs, and you can make an argument that optimizing your runs to increase win rate is sort of the "point" of a roguelike and thus preserving the spirit of the game. IME it's also best if you try to optimize a bit on your own first completely blind; get a sense of the game and develop intuitions for what's optimal. From there you can look at other resources/players and if there's differences in what they view and what you view as optimal you can sort of reevaluate why you came to your own conclusion and why they came to a different one.

In unrelated news I have recently gotten addicted to a certain horse girl roguelike so I may need to be euthanized.

#59 ban loch in TF2 General Discussion
tr15t3nComplaining on tftv does not influence any decision. If we notice something we poll it in the survey and wait for the results.

If the process is:

Complaining on tftv -> staff notice -> staff put on survey -> people vote for it and it gets passed

then I feel like this is just playing semantics to say tftv doesn't influence any decision assuming that staff would not have noticed if nobody complained on tftv. If in a parallel universe this question does not get put on the survey and thus does not get passed because nobody posted on tftv then I would say tftv caused whatever change to occur, an arguably stronger statement.

Show Content
Unless I am mistaken and you mean that these questions would have been posted on the survey even if people didn't post on tftv* in which case I would be curious how rgl gauges that sentiment in the first place especially for lower divs. I'm not delusional enough to say tftv is fully representative of 6s but other options that come to my mind (random word of mouth, private discords that staff happen to be in, god forbid people just annoying them with unsolicited dm's) aren't exactly optimal either. An attractive option would probably be to include an open ended question (maybe it's there already idk I can't view it) on the end of season surveys but that has the problem of being only limited to ppl who played the season prior so if you just skip one season but are otherwise an active player you are a little screwed.

*This is almost surely not true for highlander (that one time they tried throwing out a playoffs team for "match fixing" but instantly reversed and the time they tried to say guy posting reddit meme = CP) but I assume you are speaking for 6s primarily.

#13 RGL HL S22. Massive Changes, No Player Feedback. in TF2 General Discussion

Proside is lowkey the biggest troll here; for 6s players imagine if next season they just announced that a new version of metal would be used with no testing with pretty substantial gameplay changes - but don't worry it's being run concurrently (so they don't even have a previous season with data) with brazilian 6's so we're all good!

Actually brazilian 6's might be even better for reference ozfortress HL has 2 divisions total lmao.

#27 ban loch in TF2 General Discussion
SOOOOOAPYMEISTERto comment on this, its widely known that rgl holds a meeting between each season involving invite players to discuss a variety topics ranging from upcoming events, map pools, and weapon bans. if i had to guess rgl is substituting polls with these meetings.

Ah okay thank you for the clarification; ngl I have heard about the invite meetings before (iirc it's how the length of the season got shortened?) but I deadass just thought they were done with cause I expected some motion on stuff like the loch otherwise lol.

SOOOOOAPYMEISTERan issue with this is that not every invite player attends these meetings (me xd), resulting in maybe like 8-10 total opinions in the discussion of weapon bans and once the discussion sways towards a weapon being banned b4nny points at the rgl mission statement that was written 3 owners ago.

Why is invite letting a player who can barely place at lan dictate the whitelist? Should be reserved to lan finalists imo.
