So we all know or have heard of this team, but the name itself I always thought interesting. I came across a wiki page randomly here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_(psychology) , and I found out that "Flow" is like a state of total immersion and involvement. It was pioneered by Mih

Was watching pyyyour's stream during flow's season when he was explaining the team name. It always stuck in my head because it's basically pronounced "me high, chick sent me high".

It basically just means that you're in "the zone". You've hit the perfect balance between challenge and your ability, and you're performing at your absolute best.

Kinda ironic considering the conclusion of that team.

Here's a TED talk on it: http://www.ted.com/talks/mihaly_csikszentmihalyi_on_flow.html

I want to know the origin of Gay Zombies From Outer Space, AKA Straight Zombies on Opposite Day. One of the funnier team names, though a google search gives this movie as it's first result.

flow is a pretty neat concept. i've experienced it in everything from sports to school work to other FPS games, but i don't think i've ever experienced while playing TF2, for whatever reason

I particularly enjoyed the explanation for the justification behind "Six Guys Off".
