thanks, I don't think this should be its own tab but when a "noob guide to competitive tf2" tab goes live I could see this being part of it.

as for bouldersnose:
Boulder wanted to do a practice shoutcast I told him I would do it but only if it isnt streamed. He then streams it without me knowing, so I decided to throw "bouldrsnose" into my next video :)

I was wondering how to hide my ip address and become invisible (answered in the video). Thanks Shwan, should have just asked you a long time ago. Good tutorial.
