let's just say a man who goes for the nuclear option in the first place is not the brightest bulb on the hanukkah tree

Inserting this for reference here.

I would login on Jasa but I queued that account for deletion so I can't.

Necessary context and stuff.

99% of people won't care and 99% of the people involved probably also won't care but I do feel it's the right thing to do this.
In no particular order, an apology to:

trip/safrix/aim for lying
specific people in malcord, including but not limited to dale, r4ve, kronky (thank you for your help on jump servers also), kryptyde, etc. etc.
random people in twitch chat that i might've lied to in passing
the random amateur team I tried to join; I seriously was not trying to sandbag. The last time i played scout in open I had a match with sub 100 dpm and also got 5-0'd in like 10 minutes by mid open people. kinda misjudged where amateur falls in relation to open. you guys are beast though, keep grinding.

oh also phlps idk if you remember this but sorry for not extinguishing you like years ago during a highlander gullywash match and letting you burn to death, I did win the round tho so uhhhhhhh we'll call that a worthy sacrifice

Would go here for hl questions, tftv is mainly geared toward 6's.

At an open level though if your team masters the art of walking forward together you would own.

Hello I'd like my new twitch channel to be put on the sidebar (I was on there years ago but I deleted my old twitch thinking I wouldn't come back to this game).

Will stream invite pyro scrims/matches, maybe 6's if I play it again.

While we're at it can we please ban anyone who says "die" in chat? If you really think about it that's basically the same as saying kys. This would make my rgl experience much better, thank you :)

think that's just xhairshadowdefault, should be on cfg.tf

Could try booting into safe mode to see if it's some weird windows process (despite your fresh install), years ago I had to do that to diagnose an issue when I noticed that explorer.exe would slowly eat up all 8gb of my ram lol.

ironically(?) I would say for certain things (flamethrowers and detonator/scorch in particular, but there are prob others) it's the hl players/pubbers who complain about them way more for being unfun or braindead. by contrast I don't think I've ever seen pubbers complain about mad milk when that shit is straight busted.

of course it makes sense that those groups complain about them more because you're way more likely to see full time pyro in pubs/hl than in 6's but my point is more that there are some things in this game that a lot of people, no matter how you experience this game, hate solely for being "unfun" or easy/lowskill (think w+m1 complaints)

stalagmites are rock formations for pussies

seriously though this map looks really cool, can't wait to see matches on it

Smash? Hell it has even more restrictions considering literally all items are off lol. Imagine if people in the smash community suggested that they turn items on because it's more familiar to the casual player/outsiders who only see smash as a party game. Turns out that allowing uncompetitive things when you're trying to make a competitive game solely for the reason that "it's part of the base game" is a fucking terrible idea. Not to mention that cs was about to ban the r8 revolver before it got fixed. I really think you're overestimating how complicated the idea of "it's banned because it's broken or uncompetitive" is.

People like b4nny always spout this shit about players needing to sacrifice their own enjoyment of the game "for the greater good" but literally what benefits are there at all to unbanning uncompetitive unlocks? You already admit that unbanning these unlocks only brings potential negatives to the game itself, and at best affects nothing. I remember during the initial global whitelist push (which btw NA has totally abandoned, what happened to people like SLIN saying that the communities should have 1 whitelist lmao) the proponents were saying that unbanning unlocks will also attract new players. Unfortunately, that has not been the case and the pattern in player numbers went basically unchanged pre and post global whitelist, so it'd be a little absurd to think that an extra few unlocks would make any sort of change. Where exactly are these supposed benefits, no matter how small?

The reason people jokingly bring up "Valve major" is because appealing to Valve was a big reason for the mass unbans within the global whitelist, and considering it's been two years since then and the comp tf2 community has absurdly little to show for it, I personally am quite cynical toward that particular line of reasoning.

Kind of a side note, but believe me when I say I've spent a LOT of time talking to tf2 players who have never touched any competitive format, ranging from the average pubber to the casual comp stream viewer to people who vehemently antagonize anything even vaguely related to comp, and I've met maybe 2 people who actually avoided comp because of certain unlocks being banned. Once that unlock got unbanned (gunslinger for both), they still avoided comp because turns out full-time engineer still sucks. The reasons why people don't want to play comp are either because they can't play their main full time viably and/or they hate 5cp (oftentimes these two things are tied together) or they only enjoy the chaos of 12v12 class stacking pub tf2 on maps with infinite sightlines and awful chokes.

saw a chick in school a lot who'd wear a tail

years later after this community has changed me i now start questioning how that tail is ... "attached"

I'm more excited for next season than I have for a long time, god damn. Rewind is going to be insane.

he did great at i63, hope he sorts things out
