been playing the past couple of days with cornpop and azazel
unfortunately the same problems that have plagued it for years (leavers and hackers) are still pretty rampant
Queue times have been better recently likely due to the steam sale promo, but expect longer queues in the coming days and weeks because of the sale's end

Always has been and always will be the people. As much as there are always the vocal group of mean and nasty spirited people the TF2 community never fails to be the friendliest and most laid back esports community.

I just wanted to post here after my first daily stream of many thanking everyone who has been generous enough to donate money. As it currently stands I am up to 140/700 dollars, 20 percent of my goal. The TF2 community has always been a generous one, and I can't thank you enough to those who have donated or are considering.

I think this is some appropriate context.

I've been trying to quit, haven't smoked anything in two weeks. Unfortunately the past few months I've been dealing with substance addiction and abuse, which I have been getting help for recently.

The following perks can only be claimed at LAN due to obvious reasons

• $50 - Be taken out to a meal at LAN (RGB or Insomnia) LIMIT: 0/3 RGB | 0/3 i65
  Come hang out and enjoy a meal of your choice (try and keep it to fast food/something inexpensive, no steak dinners etc.) with me! I'm pretty much an open book, can talk about whatever and am generally a very friendly and hungry boy. High fives, hugs, fist bumps, and dabs included upon request :) I'm also happy to dine with your team, but will only be paying for your meal and my own.
  
  This will also include the following perks:
  • 6 Medic Mousemat Raffle Entries
    
  • 4 Talent/Production Mousemat Raffle Entries
    
  • Personal Stream/Cast of your official match
    
  • Access to LAN behind-the-scenes Snapchat

  At the next RGB event, I will give you a personal tour of the behind-the-scenes area at RGB LAN. You'll get a chance to see how all of the different arms of LAN operate, meet the staff that help make LAN happen, and get a detailed walkthrough of our entire production setup and staff. This is a great opportunity to interact with the networking and volunteer staff, and see how every single aspect of our cozy little LAN operates.

Hi everyone, I'm Console-, best known for being a caster, observer, and organizer for teamfortress.tv and the broadcast producer for RGB LAN. I have been planning this year on attending insomnia65, and have been picked up onto the broadcast team as one of the Technical Directors. After some unexpected travel costs at RGB due to Dashner being involved in an unfortunate car accident and also needing to personally pay for some needed production equipment my financial situation has gone down the drain, and I've been encouraged by a few people to reach out to the community for support to get to iSeries.

With that being said, I'd like to announce my official personal fundraiser to get to insomnia65 and volunteer as TD. While I can't offer a ton not being a super high level player, I've come up with some perks to help do what I can. My total earning goal is 700 USD, which will help me cover most of my flight and food money. I've put a deadline of August 20th on this fundraiser, and if I am unsuccessful in meeting my goal I will still be fulfilling all incentives, and donating all of the money to Tip of the Hats this year.

Donations can be made at https://streamlabs.com/consolee_ Please note that if you do not list what perks you want in your donation message, I cannot fulfill them. I will be trying to stream every day before LAN at twitch.tv/Consolee_

The Following are donation perks/incentives I'll be personally doing with help from a few others:

• $3 - raffle entry for production and talent team signed mousemat
  This will be a mousemat that I will be getting signed by all members of the insomnia65 TF2 crew. This includes the full broadcast production team, the on screen talent, and our tournament and server admins.
  Once again, please note: due to shipping expenses, I will only be paying for shipping to the US, Canada, and the EU. If you are outside of those regions and want to enter, you must pay for shipping if you recieve the mousemat. If you are a LAN attendee of either insomnia65 or the next RGB LAN, I can also give it to you personally to avoid shipping costs.
  
  
  
• $5 - Raffle Ticket Entry for Invite/Prem Medic signed mousemat.
  This is a mousemat I brought to RGB LAN specifically to get signed by current and former ESEA-I/ETF2L Prem medics. It is currently signed by Bear, cozen, TheFragile, ScrewB, Stochastic, meyy, saam, and ninjanick. At iSeries I plan on accruing more signatures from Premiership and Invite medics attending the LAN.
  Please note: due to shipping expenses, I will only be paying for shipping to the US, Canada, and the EU. If you are outside of those regions and want to enter, you must pay for shipping if you recieve the mousemat. If you are a LAN attendee of either insomnia65 or the next RGB LAN, I can also give it to you personally to avoid shipping costs.
  
  
  
  
• $15 - Personal cast of your official match LIMIT: 0/35
  I will be livestreaming and commentating your next official match, be it ESEA Playoffs (other ESEA casts will be STV demo only), NACL, RGL, TFCL, UGC, ETF2L, OZFortress, Asia Fortress Cup, or any other well recognized community league, as well as doing proper observing work for the game using the latest revision of CastingEssentials. Due to the nature of this, I will require either live STV info or the STV demo of the match. Scheduling for live casts will be first come first serve as to avoid time conflicts and missing a cast of someone's game. The VODs will be posted publicly to my YouTube (unless otherwise asked), and the recording will be made available to you and your team.
  
  This will also include the following perks:
  • 2 Medic Mousemat Raffle Entries
    
  • 2 Talent/Production Mousemat Raffle Entries
  
  
  
• $20 - Access to behind-the-scenes production Snapchat
  During LAN, I will be using a LAN-specific Snapchat account to show off the production area, how the broadcast is being run, do some brief interviews with talent and production, and show some of the highlights of the LAN experience. I'm hoping that this can give people a good look into the magic that goes into making TF2 events function, and share the experience that I've fallen in love with on production with others.
  
  This will also include the following perks:
  • 2 Medic Mousemat Raffle Entries
    
  • 3 Talent/Production Mousemat Raffle Entries
  
  
  
• $30 - Teamfortress.tv semi-professionally run cast of your official match LIMIT: 1/10
  With the help of a few of my close friends and co-casters, your official match in the league your team participates in will be produced and cast by the TFTV crew. Due to TFTV being a larger org than just myself, there are gonna be some rules on this one. Scheduling will be first come, first serve as with the solocasts and should not conflict with any officially scheduled casts (will notify you personally). The match will be streamed live on teamfortress.tv, and the VOD made publicly available.
  
  This will also include the following perks:
  • 4 Medic Mousemat Raffle Entries
    
  • 3 Talent/Production Mousemat Raffle Entries
    
  • Access to LAN behind-the-scenes Snapchat
  
  
  
• $40 - Personal Casting, Observing, or Production Mentoring Session LIMIT: 0/25
  Over the past few years, I have had the chance to expand my horizons from a player to also a competent broadcaster, in-game observer, and commentator. I've had many a time in which people have reached out to me wondering about what producing, observing, or casting is all about, and asking for general tips. With this incentive, I will be providing personal mentoring sessions on the basics of broadcast, in-game observing for TF2, CSGO, Overwatch, and PLAYERUNKNOWN's BATTLEGROUNDS, and commentating for TF2. You can choose which ones you'd like to learn about, ask me any questions you have, and generally pick the brain of a well-experienced caster, producer, and observer.
  
  This will also include the following perks:
  • 5 Medic Mousemat Raffle Entries
    
  • 3 Talent/Production Mousemat Raffle Entries
    
  • Access to LAN behind-the-scenes Snapchat
