It became the norm that using stickies in DM/MGE is frowned upon for a long time now. Same with using shotgun as soldier. I never agreed with it, because yeah, it can be important to practice your pill / air rockets, but that doesn't mean that stickies and shotguns aren't important / don't require practice.

All weapons have very practical purposes in a lot of situations. Just because one person is going for air rockets while the other guy is using a shotgun for anti-air doesn't mean you have the right to demand it to be played your way. Unless you want to play against a Demoman in DM / MGE in a very impractical scenario where he is using pills 100% of the time, then I would imagine that you would want to put yourself in the position where you need to beat him as if it was a scrim / match (ie: he is using stickies and pills).

Stickies can be frustrating to play against, but I think lower-level players just think the "stickies are op so you're not really good" card is an easy card to play. If you would like to think about it this way: a better player would beat you, even if you are using stickies.

Anyone going that plays Marvel?

I've seen good Quake players do this a long time ago, but I agree, I don't really recommend it.

counting on my cat brother, pharaoh, to blow up things and such.

I would like to thank my teammates for launching Dave into me towards the end of the game, just so he could get the easy second rocket for free. :P

But really, that was a lot of fun and I'm not upset one bit despite how close we were. It'll be an interesting season. :3

Gunnars do actually relieve eye strain (found through a study, it's on the wikipedia page), so if you want to go that route. just wait for a Gunnars sale on Woot, which happens about once a week.

hahahah, that's amazing.

An LCD monitor in itself doesn't give eye strain, it's typically the brightness. There's a link somewhere that showed it was found that LCD monitors don't cause eye strain (whereas I think CRTs would).

One of the big things it could be is brightness. Toy around with that.

edit: found it

yanno because their colors are yellow white and blue, and protanopia is pretty much yellow white and blue FUCK NEVERMIND OKAY

Are you a Chargers fan, lol :D

I have the 3750k as well. My motherboard is the ASRock z77 Extreme 4. No complaints about anything, either. It was all on a bang-for-buck kind of budget at the time.

The 3750k is pretty much definitely THE bang-for-buck CPU. I thought about going with AMD instead, but as you said, some of the reviews I read were mixed. The 3750 seemed like a safe choice, and it's definitely fantastic.
