Hello TF.TV,
I'm posting to remind everyone that registration for CEVO TF2 Season 4 closes on Monday, February 17th @ 11:59 PM CST. We will not be extending registration, so head on over to the CEVO site now to register for a team and get paid up. You need 6 players paid & ready for your team to be marked "ready".
NOTE: In order to be considered "ready", you must both be paid up AND have a valid STEAM ID in your profile. You can add your STEAM ID by clicking here.
-----[PRESEASON]-----
Preseason is already underway, and we've added a third preseason match to give teams an additional chance to familiarize themselves with the CEVO website, client, and server reservation system before the regular season begins. Preseason 1 has already been played, but you can still sign up and play the remainder of preseason! The preseason schedule is as follows:

-----[STATS]-----
Our stats system (based on SizzlingStats) is now up and running. We will continue tweaking and improving it as the season progresses, but if you play a match on one of our official servers right now this is what you can expect to see:

-----[RULES & WHITELIST]-----
Our rules, configs, and whitelist are not final at this time. We are hoping to have a survey system deployed by the end of the week which will allow us to gather accurate community feedback on what changes we should make. More information to come on this as it is available.
-----[NEW STAFF]-----
We've also brought on a new volunteer, Quindali, to act as CEVO TF2 Community Manager. As Community Manager, Quindali has created a TF2 league-wide steam group to easily share info and updates, increase admin accessibility, and to help facilitate teams/players with recruitment. After registration ends, there will also be private division-specific groups for Open and Main, including weekly announcements, predictions/discussion, and events for team match ups. If you are a Captain of a team, please add Quindali at http://steamcommunity.com/id/quindali/ to be added to the proper group. Captains can invite their team once given moderator status.
Fog has also been brought on as our volunteer Stream Coordinator. He will be working both as part of TeamFortress.tv and CEVO to help ensure that CEVO matches get consistent quality coverage.
Thanks & good luck in the upcoming season!

Rosters will remain open throughout the season until the permanent roster lock (end of week 7). After the permanent roster lock, there will be no roster changes allowed for any reason. As we get closer to the final roster lock, we'll make a news post to give everyone a few weeks notice.
The only stipulation throughout the season is that you cannot play in the same round in more than one match.

Will it be possible to allow registration during the last couple days of preseason (up until 21st)? A lot of players are still lft or making teams and it wouldn't harm the schedule to allow it.

sky_Will it be possible to allow registration during the last couple days of preseason (up until 21st)? A lot of players are still lft or making teams and it wouldn't harm the schedule to allow it.
We'll allow teams who are partially registered the ability to complete their rosters right up until the first few days of the regular season, the 17th is just the last day to create a new team.
If you're on the fence about playing this season, make sure you at least create your team before the 17th and then you'll buy yourselves a few more days to get "ready" if you decide to play.

I keep forgetting to look into this, and it's honestly the only thing holding me back
Does the cevo client support osx? I'm forced to use snow leopard, so it's really my only issue.

14 new rosters added in the past two days! whoooo
just to reinforce-- please make sure to join the Town Hall group if you're playing this season. It'll be the easiest place to access updates and information related to the league. I'm also working on adding more community-oriented resources like the recruitment lists, as well as a comprehensive list of HUDs, FPS cfgs, P-REC, etc. Invite your friends!
Save yourself the trouble of sifting through forums and check out the group for all updates!

I believe Pipher said that they have no plans for OSX unless it becomes a really big request, so I think you're out of luck unless you Boot Camp or something.

Windows 8 is fine for playing TF2. How exactly was it unplayable?

Game barely loads, and when it does its extremely choppy. Even with a config it was like at 15 frames. On osx with a config it's 120 and drops only down to 90/80 when it overheats.

Not really, I just didn't have time to put in the effort to be a competitive player in CS:GO because of my new job.
I still felt it was right to take the break when I did, and I actually thought I'd be away from the game longer than I actually was.

Pretty sure TF2 runs better on Windows on Mac hardware than it does on OS X.

I'm going to check and see if I have the correct version they are recommending for my computer, hopefully that is the problem. If I can get at least 120 frames on osx, it should be way better on windows.

Did you use BootCamp from your OS X disc? If so, that's really old and the newer version should make your life better. You'll probably have to update to a newer OS X version, that will support the new BootCamp. I think...Mavericks is free anyways. What are the specs on your Mac? If you go the newer BC route, I would delete your windows 8 partition and start from scratch, post-OS X update. Also, why not just install Windows 7 instead? (I ran TF2 on my MacBook Pro for years, so I'm trying to be as much help as possible.)
