mIRC can be downloaded here: http://www.mirc.com/

Go to Tools > Options.

Select "Connect" on the tree on the left.
Enter your nickname exactly as it appears on twitch.tv. If your nick on mIRC is mismatched with your nick on twitch.tv, the chat server will not allow you to connect and it will not give you an error message.

Select "Connect > Servers" on the tree on the left. Click "Add". Enter irc.twitch.tv in the IRC Server field. Enter your twitch.tv password OAuth password in the password field. Be sure to include "oauth:" in your password otherwise it will not work. Click "OK". Click "Select". Click "Connect".

To set up automatic joining of channels, go to Tools > Options. Select "Connect > Options" on the tree on the left. Click Perform. Check "Enable perform on connect". Click "Add", select "Twitch.tv". Add a "/join" command for each channel you want to automatically connect to. See the above image for examples. One command per line. Click "OK". NOTE: Do not add a "/nick" command to these perform paramaters. It may cause you to be unable to connect at all. This is a bug with Twitch.tv as far as I am aware.

If you've done everything correctly, your IRC should look something like this.

UPDATE 9/19/13:
- Use irc.twitch.tv instead of <yourtwitchtvname>.jtvirc.com.
- Change your connect password from your twitch password to your OAuth password (make sure to include "oauth:" in the password box).

I know many people in this community are already connected and idle in some sort of IRC client whether it be for pugs, scrims, cybersex, etc. Lange and I decided to make this tutorial to help streamers and stream viewers to better connect to each other whether the stream is live or not.

Since I use HexChat (which is exactly the same as XChat but free: http://hexchat.github.io) I'll be using images from the program. If you use mIRC go to post 2 for tutorial for that program.

Go to HexChat (Xchat) > Network List
Fill in your information if it's not filled in already then click "Add". Type in twitch.tv then click "Edit". A new window will pop up.

Under "Servers for twitch.tv" it will have "newserver/6667" select that and click "Edit". Change it to <yourtwitchtvname>.jtvirc.com (for example I would do truktruk.jtvirc.com) irc.twitch.tv

Under "Your Details" uncheck "Use global user information". Put your twitch.tv name in for "Nick name" and "User Name". You can leave the other options blank.

Under "Connecting" check "Auto connect to this network at startup" and leave the rest of the checkboxes blank. Go down to favorite channel and type in whatever channels you wish to automatically connect to, obviously if you stream you'll want to connect to your own chat. Separate these channels with commas and no spaces(Example: #truktruk,#langeh,#seanbud) Finally go to "Server Password at the bottom and type in your twitch.tv password. OAuth password. Be sure to include "oauth:" in your password otherwise it will not work. Click close then connect to the network by clicking "Connect".

If you've done everything correctly you should be connected to all the channels you put under "Favorite channels" and still be connected to whatever other network you were previously connected to (ie gamesurge).

UPDATE 9/19/13:
- Use irc.twitch.tv instead of <yourtwitchtvname>.jtvirc.com.
- Change your connect password from your twitch password to your OAuth password (make sure to include "oauth:" in the password box).

I'm finally going to make the switch from AMD to Intel but I don't know what motherboard to get. Every single one I look at gets mixed reviews and I was wondering if anyone has any good suggestions. This is the current motherboard I'm looking into: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157296

My budget is $150 and I'm interested in overclocking. I'm getting a 3770K if that info is needed.

i'd throw down an extra 50 bucks and get these: http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATH-M50-Professional-Monitor-Headphones/dp/B000P62ND6

Really boring :\

This would imply that engineer would be pretty much useless without the item, which he obviously would not be. I mean god forbid engineers having to poop out mini sentries and aim with a shotgun.

This doesn't mean that the item doesn't do exactly what the OP is talking about the vast majority of the time.

This pretty much explains what the item can cause. You say it causes teamwork, and it does (kinda) but it's not the type of teamwork that is gratifying and fun. When a crosseyed, upside-down retard can sit there with a secondary item that really only can be countered by a good ubercharge or very good spy/sniper play followed up by a demoman or soldier I think there is something wrong here.

I'd be really disappointed if this was true. Maybe have the platinum teams decide on the item. Since they are the best players and probably have a good sense of balance.

On a map like turbine I feel like the engineer shouldn't be using the wrangler as you can't be a tremendous douchebag and sit across the map shooting at people all while your sentry is very hard to kill. The map is very small and the sentries are very easy to peak as any class. The wrangler's browneye shines on maps where you can sit at a safe distance and be a fucking asshole to everyone on the other team. This mostly happens in payload maps, and aside from the wrangler I'd say payload maps are awesome for highlander. I have no idea why so many cp maps are played in pugs.

Yeah pretty much. Maybe this site can host a Highlander league eventually, run by people that know what the hell is going on.
