Official Team Fortress 2 Game Nights (PC)

If and when my router co-operates, I will be there as well.

I will try and be on but it will be late like maybe 10 Eastern. Mondays just don't work so good for me anymore.

TONIGHT, WE FIGHT.

Hopefully I can escape from the clutches of Time with the Wife.

TONIGHT, we ask permission from FlamingPeasant's wife if we may fight. Please.

I'm going to see Ben Folds Five tonight, so no hattemanneing for me. Stab you next time!

TONIGHT, I can play Engineer for more than thirty seconds.

Her name is Mrs. Flaming. And if it's sexy clutches all bets are off.

Aarrghhh, plenty of fun to be had. But TF2 crashed again.

Good games tonight. Are we doing Reddit again next time?

The midwest reddit server is usually really good. That was my first time on the dirty south server though.

Please let us not speak of that server again.

Something was up with my (our?) Steam server browser so the private wasn't showing up. We had great GWJ turnout, but we were just on the wrong server. Boo.

Let's hope not. They were terrible.

I had fun.

It is 4chan-lite, so wear protection.

Spoiler:

I'm sad I couldn't play tonight.

Games tonight were fun, although the server connection was spotty. It really sucks losing your loadout midmatch, especially as an engineer and having your buildings auto-destruct.

Sorry guys, I didn't realize the private wasn't update to date. It should be OK now. For whatever reason, the private isn't able to update itself on map change or server restart... it has to be done manually.

Monday night on a pub. Not even our pub. I feel shame.

And holy crap I kept pressing shift to sprint. Never let me go this long without playing TF2.

I kept trying to kick worthless pubbies. I had some fun but the inability to remove 3rd snipers, idlers, and just plain old annoying as f#@* people makes me sad. I didn't realize that the private wasn't up to date either. I saw people playing and joined the game. I assume that's how we ended up there in the first place. Someone was playing on that server and people just started joining.

Yeah, for a good long while it was just like 2 or 3 GWJers on TF2 and everyone was playing Borderlands or Torchlight, so I threw up an event and we eventually got a bunch more. Probably would've been better on the private or our pub, but I didn't feel like starting it up :p

Random BS:

I played like crap last night but I had 2 or 3 nice flaming runs from the enemy's back-side that made it all so worthwhile. I will seemingly suffer through an hour of playing horribly for those 5 seconds of awesome.

The pubbies on that server were pretty bad but there were a few decent ones. Personally, I like 3 snipers/spies, as long as they are on the other team.

It is amazing that there are people who can play at a high level with no mic. Not just Mex (or Shea - remember her?) but a couple of the pubbies on the Reddit server who were good did not seem to have a mic either.

Dustbowl (except for Stage 2 on defense - that stage is one of the best) is a horrible pyro map for the way I play.

Ugh there was a pro-level scout yesterday on Koth_lakeside who was a giant pain in the ass, dude was pretty damn good, I had to go heavy to try and bring him down a bit and even then had trouble bringing him down. I think he ended up like 25 points above everyone else. I was pretty impressed.

Shea was awesome, some months ago she joined for a bit and still topped the scoreboard easily, I was struggling to keep up :s

This reminds me of a Wonderful Moment I had playing Upward a few days ago as a Backburner Pyro. Mostly sucking wind, as my team utterly failed to push into the final point and I kept eating bullets. Then I caught the top-scoring Soldier and his Medic in one of the doorways near the stairs under the final point. They didn't back out for some reason, and I just kept frying them. Turned left and went downstairs, killed an enemy Pyro waiting for the healthkit to respawn, took the healthkit (:)), edged the sentry (and the Engie ) at the top of the stairs...and um, got killed by a Heavy.

But five seconds later, due to the loss of the topscoring Soldier, Medic and sentry, the team pushes through and wins! Great Moments in W+M1.

I think the names was Masq or something like that. He was very good.

There was a spy Led+something that was doing quite some damage as well.

I never thought about it that way, but yes, Reddit is a bit like that.

There are places on reddit that are like 4chan(I think you probably mean to say /b/ here, because seemingly everyone thinks of /b/ as 4chan), but the vast majority of reddit is full of decent, helpful folks, not terribly different from here, to be quite honest.

I was starting to think I was the only one who felt this way. About 9:30 I checked my friends list, saw about 10 playing TF2, got exited only to see no one on our servers when I load it up. Couple that with the fact that I was playing like crap, and we didn't have a decent pube on our team, and it wasn't my most memorable night.

Still good to play I guess.

Ukick: Is Mr Plow going through a router? If so have you tried connecting him straight to the modem to see if it made any difference? If it is a router, what brand is it?

Yes, this router: http://www.amazon.com/D-Link-Wireles..., but I am on the same router. Only difference is I am plugged into it with an ethernet cord and he is using wireless since he is nowhere near the location of the router.

Do you have the latest firmware installed on that router? Looks to be a fairly new model. I found this support subforum that deals directly with the 826L.

It was nice to get in a round and a half with you all on Badwater last night. It is a shame the server pretty much died after that. Was it something I said?
