#5 TIL: TF started with standart 6s classes. in TF2 General Discussion
Not_MatlockIt was originally played 8v8 as well.

I'm not 100% sure, but I heard that the early versions (possibly the pre-order beta as well) of TF2 was 8v8 as well.

It was primarily 6v6 in beta. I do know that a decent amount of teams toyed with 8v8, though. Animeman tried to settle it on Gotfrag by making a poll for 6v6, 7v7, and 8v8. 6v6 won by a fairly good margin.

vibhavpIIRC cyzer was the early beta lead. He might have some more info about this.

I think what you're talking about the TF2 beta client which let a bunch of users beta test upcoming updates. I remember him having to do something with that. I could be wrong but I don't think he really played the game when it was actually in beta in 2007.

#10 elevate no longer sponsored or what? in TF2 General Discussion
quintoshohaidereWhy would they need a sponsor when there's no LAN and nothing for elevate to pay for?do you really think they pay for their lans?

Don't minusfrag this guy. We got nothing except jerseys, lol.

I'll probably go into full detail on a FullyCharged episode where I also talk about GXL or something. In a rather tl;dr fashion, we got a bit of LAN support when we were Exertus, but then all of that went down the drain when Exertus became eLevate. I helped my team out financially when needed, but we mostly stuck with eLevate just to keep an MGO name in TF2.

I don't want to make it seem like eLevate are a joke or something, though. The staff are friendly and chill dudes who support their teams the best they can with what they have. They just didn't see the growth in TF2 as they thought they would see over the seasons. The death of LAN this season had little to do with their decision. Yeah, we tried to tell them about Valve MM and other cool stuff, but they felt like this was the best decision. I respect their decision, and the split was amicable.

Also, whether it's obvious or not, we wanted a name synonymous with elevate, mostly as a joke (along with the logo) but it's still a fine team name.

funhaver1998what does the tag stand for?

It's a secret. :3

lol, I actually really enjoy this. It reminds me a little bit of Home Movies. I don't really play this close anymore, though. :(

Teapot_imo leave spread out for most games and consult someone in the know about invite/prem if you think the match might need a spread. last night's game would have had great odds for 5 Dollar Club if there was no spread since most people didn't recognise how close it was going to be.

This. Exactly this.

I don't think the idea of spread is horrible in every scenario, but I think it shouldn't be used that much. And even when it is used, I don't think it should make the odds 50/50 (like a last place invite team getting one round against Froyo or something). Because again, I think having those low odds to bet on will really pay off if you are a knowledgeable person.

IMO, I wouldn't do spread whatsoever, maybe unless it was a top 2 team going against a bottom 2 team. Even then, I would make it so the bottom 2 team would have to get like 3 rounds or something.

Also, I'm not getting the 500 internal server error anymore. :) Thanks for fixing it.

that website gave me a 500 internal server error all night (haven't tried prior to today, I just went there because I heard about the spread).

One can just throw some of their regular season and still win the league because of playoffs. But every time they attempt to do so they have a chance of being caught so I don't think it's profitable long term. And it's not even more likely in eSports, you hear about iBP, but they just slipped. The more serious a sport is the better they are at throwing though it's often just selling games rather than betting against themselves. In 2005 we discovered that a lot of games in Polish football (from few previous games, were rigged with both clubs management, trainers, managers, referees (22 of them!) and players involved. Nobody would expect it before one of them blabbed.

I think it's more dealing with if a team had a match where the other team would "win" if they got one round (or maybe two rounds). I feel like it would be pretty ridiculous with people calling them out on that lost round. But then again, it would be pretty fucking easy to just intentionally get wiped at mid, don't kill the enemy medic, and lose to their last push. You couldn't possibly prove that.

I know people say shit all the time in cs like "omg c9 are throwing" or whatever, but that's a far difference from losing an entire match and losing a round or two.

Seriously, Invite is not as stagnant as you might think outside of Froyo. You don't need to handicap bets to make the odds more even. If anything, the people who believed that Five Dollar Club could completely beat 20b are losing money here. It's also not nearly exciting to bet on a low underdog and come out with a win.

This really doesn't affect me in any way because I don't bet on TF2 matches and have yet to bet on one, but I feel like the spread is just a really bad idea.

#548 Saloon.tf in Projects

I think the spread idea is very subjective and can lead to a lot of bad things. Just let the bets determine the odds like CSGL.

A really good example is this 20b vs Five Dollar Club game. Teams vary a lot in skill depending on the map and who they are going against. To say that there should objectively be a spread for a game like this (or any game at all) is kind of silly.

I also don't really believe that bets being more towards 50/50 would attract more people. I think for just about everyone you attract that would bet on that would equally make other people skip the bet.

This might be alright for some Froyo games, but really nothing else. There's a lot of good matches in Invite this season.

#114 esea in TF2 General Discussion
flameif esea wants to front nick leons bill for renting out a warehouse and equipment for friday and make gxl sat-sunday that's legit, otherwise its actually dumb af.

Basically this.

This is a BYOC LAN, and we just happened to have some computers for use just because CEVO had them there, holding CEVO finals.

I would not expect ESEA to put responsibility in someone's hands other than their own to make some other LAN hold their LAN finals, and as flame said, I wouldn't expect them to help with computers or other expenses (once again, in someone's hands that isn't their own).

It's a cool idea, but not in the cards at all. Not even a little bit.
