Next one will be this saturday at 20cest/19bst/14edt, focusing on snakewater.

Hey gang,

I've been toying with this idea for a while now and decided to go ahead with it. Starting tomorrow night at 19BST I will be doing a weekly workshop to discuss rollouts for various maps. I will focus on one map per week in what I predict will be a show lasting roughly 1 hour. The first segment will be a straight-forward tutorial where I go over a particular map's demoman rollout(s) in depth, while the second segment will involve a Q&A in which I will attempt to aid people fixing the specific problems they have with that episodes rollouts.

Part of the Q&A segment will involve me looking at viewer-submitted demos that I will critique, so if you'd like me to analyse your rollout then please send me a demo through twitch messages. I can't guarantee I will look at all of the ones sent to me, I will operate on a first-come, first-serve basis. To maximise the chance that I review your rollout, make sure it is easy to find in the demo file. Ideally this will involve a demo recorded exclusively for the purpose of showing me your rollout, rather than a match demo. I will accept match demos but only if a specific tick is provided, and one that is not more than 50000 ticks into the demo.

The first episode will focus on badlands, so tune in Wednesday at 22BST! (23CEST, 17EDT)

Tune in the same time the following week for the rr rollout workshop at twitch.tv/rr. He guarantees he'll be able to get you to Mid alive at least 50% of the time.

Twitch is sketching out like a mother fucker after this password reset stuff. If nothing changes in the next 30 minutes then I will postpone this. I can't get chat to work at the moment, and it's an essential component for how I want to approach this so I'd rather set it back a few days than do it half-assed.

To confirm, I've decided that Twitch is simply too bugged at the moment to do this to the level that I desire tonight. I will be pushing it back to Wednesday at 22BST/23CEST/17EDT. Apologies to anyone who was waiting for it tonight but I'd rather wait a few days and deliver properly, to as many people as possible, than do it tonight with a semi-functional twitch.tv.

Also to clarify, I have chat working but a lot of people do not + streams are not being forwarded through tftv/reddit/etc.

Cruzhow are either of those "new"

Dunno about new, but it's definitely revised from the 'standard'. Most demomen put their first sticky on the pillar and when going big door, they only do the one sticky jump and then walk. Seacow didn't do them that well in the video (no offense :S) but the first sticky on the floor and the second sticky when going big door is meant to cut out walking time. This will get you there fast enough to potentially kill or lock out a choke demoman unless they're aware of this rollout and can get to choke fast enough.

Especially if you don't do like 50 damage to yourself with fall damage on the last jump
