edit: due to some tf2 updates the versions of sourcemod & metamod as posted before don't work. Here is a link to the /addons folder that i use on my server and it works as of 26/07/2013

I've had this idea in my head for a while but last night i won a demo 1v1 mge cup so i guess now is the right time to make this topic.
Here's a video explaining how to use this training method and showing short footage of me actually playing it: http://www.twitch.tv/mightytv/b/422534013
Skip to 13:30 to see the map itself and explanation of the training
This training method focuses on improving your pipe aim in general; especially tracking, juggling and reaction time.
You will fight against a computer played bot, in a round arena, with unlimited ammo and fast respawn time
- Class of the bot can be changed to any of the 9 classes
- Respawntime can be adjusted to your own preference
- Health can be set from 1 to anything
The reason why I like this training method a lot is because you are not dependent on any real player wanting to play vs you, or their skill level, or server performance.
This method is perfectto quickly warm up your pipe aim before you have a scrim or a match, or just to improve your pipe aim in general.
Requirements:
- Sourcemod*
- Metamod*
- Directs map (credits to Lange(?) for originally adding this map to the mge_training series and credits to LeSwordfish from tf2maps.net for extracting the map for me)
- Some cfg files
- Unlimited ammo script

Sourcemod & Metamod are optional for Fast Respawn & Max Health plugin. Without these 2 plugins you will not respawn faster than 4 seconds and you are not able to adjust the health of your enemy. Therefore it is highly recommended to download and install these two programs.
You can watch the video that I posted above, or you can follow these steps to "install" this method:
EASY WAY (includes Sourcemod + Metamod)
1. Download Connecting pipes like a plumber.rar (9.2 MB)
https://mega.co.nz/#!epJV0KKb!YmCsSwZLbA8PN0gHGScI82Y7K8UU8YODWZv7V3B11QE
2. Extract all files to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf
3. Add -insecure to launch options of Team Fortress 2
4. Type map directs in console while in team fortress 2 main menu
5. Type exec directsready in console
6. Type exec resup in console
7. Play
(8. Personally i prefer to play directs without hitsound and autoreload, because you don't need either one of them in here. Type cl_autoreload 0 and tf_dingaling 0 in console to disable autoreload and hitsound)
SIMPLE WAY (NO Instant respawn & NO Health changer)
1. Download Connecting pipes like a plumber2.rar (226 KB)
https://mega.co.nz/#!ShhjHCDI!bcEx0TlUa9whvGtze4CEhGFAdW1u8KjSdET3MEKRQJQ
2. Extract all files to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf
3. Type map directs in console while in team fortress 2 main menu
4. Type exec directsready in console
5. Type exec resup in console
6. Play
HARD WAY* (Use this method to be 100% sure that Sourcemod & Metamod are working)
1. Install MetaMod:
Installing Metamod:Source
SourceMod runs using Metamod:Source. You will need to install Metamod in order for SourceMod to work.
http://www.metamodsource.net/ The download link is located on the left side of the webpage. Make sure to pick the proper operation system (Windows on a Windows server, Linux on a Linux server, and so on).
Put the content of the zip into your game's root folder. You should now have an "addons" folder in your game's root folder.
In order for the game to recognise Metamod, you need a vdf file. http://www.metamodsource.net/?go=vdf Select the game you wish to install Metamod for, then click the generate button.
Once the metamod.vdf file has downloaded, copy it into your "addons" folder.
You have now successfully installed Metamod!
2. Install SourceMod:
Installing SourceMod
Once you have installed Metamod:Source, there will be an "addons" folder in your server's game root.
Download SourceMod http://www.sourcemod.net/downloads.php (make sure to pick the proper operation system).
Place the content of the zip into your server's game root.
You have now successfully installed SourceMod!
3. Download cfg.rar (683 B)
https://mega.co.nz/#!nhg0hQZb!P573Gi-S0QqETWp6VcTvBWYkccEUTfpGpawkrnLUgvI
4. Extract all files to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\cfg
5. Download maps.rar (92 KB)
https://mega.co.nz/#!uohnGJiB!TUNn6R6xvcD9oY3JBibLhjtIDtdxGqET8WlUYELMcvg
6. Extract all files to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\maps
7. Download scripts.rar (2 KB)
https://mega.co.nz/#!ms5iETDK!TvkkEUvADTnYbus07awtNS6IQgNgveS8qB_bPOc-8zU
8. Extract all files to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\scripts
9. Add -insecure to launch options of Team Fortress 2
10. Type map directs in console while in team fortress 2 main menu
11. Type exec directsready in console
12. Type exec resup in console
13. Play
*If there are any issues with installing Metamod/Sourcemod please refer to http://wiki.alliedmods.net/Installing_SourceMod as I can not help you with this issue.
I hope that this method works for you, and that it helps you improve your aim. If you have any questions, feel free to reply here and I will look into it.
Happy plumbing!

Imo in that map the bots have easier movement and the map is too small, and the respawn time is too slow.

I have updated the OP with new download link to the same /addons folder as used on my own server, since the other version(s) do not work.

Does that just apply with every class? For me, when I'm not sweating and constantly worrying about my aim, I usually hit a lot more shots. I guess that's pretty naive to say, practising will never ever hurt your performance.

What you talk about here sounds more like being under pressure to hit your shots and not just trying to hit it. Just relax tell yourself you are the best and you'll hit those shots. I noticed that when playing dm and listening to some chill music

No, just demo. Also don't focus on aiming, focus on your movement.
working your movement will overall improve your aim

If anyone can find the map, the plugins would be trivial to implement. I googled the name of the rar and all I found was a cheat that was apparently described by a markov chain that pulled some text from this post.
