Can 2 people play as 1 player, where one controls the keyboard and the other controls the mouse?

It would be like Pacific Rim style and we would potentially see the best player ever become developed

Im not sure about this, but funny enough during my season in Div2 Makka confirmed that if you have enough players on your roster you could technically be allowed to play 2 matches at once with all of your backups.

neaksie and negasora finished jump_4starters at Rewind 1 this way. Did a couple sets of MGE as well and did okay; don't think they played any pugs tho IIRC.

Okay so basically RGL writes a rule on it after the fact and gives each player a 6 month ban

I think it is against ETF2L rules. https://etf2l.org/general-rules-2/#2.4

Getting around

ETF2L general rules 2.4 Every player is limited to only one ETF2L account at any time.

is easy aslong as one of the players do not have a personal ETF2L account.

However the only way i can think about getting around

ETF2L general rules 2.4 sharing one account between multiple players is not allowed.

is if the player(s) are conjoined twins where one has control of the left arm and another has control of the right arm.

The real power move is to use a randomizer to determine which 6 is the starting 6 and which are the backups (and what classes ofc) and then have the two teams play each other

Getting around ETF2L general rules 2.4 Every player is limited to only one ETF2L account at any time. is easy aslong as one of the players do not have a personal ETF2L account.

However the only way i can think about getting around ETF2L general rules 2.4 sharing one account between multiple players is not allowed. is if the player(s) are conjoined twins where one has control of the left arm and another has control of the right arm.

Does player count as single individual or if there are 2 people, who simultaneously use 1 account at all time and they go by the name of DumbAndDumber, would they together be 1 player? Neither part of DumbAndDumber have any other accounts, they just play with each other at all times, no exception.

According to Oxford Dictionary a player is defined as

Oxford DictionaryA person who takes part in a game or sport

So if we can agree that TF2 is a game or sport, the only thing left do define is person. Oxford dictionary can help here too, where person is defined as:

Oxford DictionaryA human as an individual.

So by this definition 2 people can't count as one player

Is A Split Brain Patient An Individual? Connected Siamese Twins ? Multiple Personality Disorder ?

Does 98 Dpm Constitute A ` Player ` ? I Would Argue That Constitutes A Non-Player.

This is how Rainoflight plays; A 12-year-old control the movement keys, a 22-year-old controls the aim.
the 12-year-old decides when to off class to sniper

After reading the "A person who takes part in a game or sport" again new questions arrive. Casters and production takes part in the game. Does that make them players? How much DPM does a caster need to be a player? Do referees or admins count as players. How far do we have to go? Does server provider count as a player? Does the factory worker that makes the hardware the servers run on count as a player? They all take part in the game to a certain extent.
