Posted this in my steam review but it's the best fps released in the last decade and it's $20 (although imo it will likely be f2p within the year.)

Don't get put off by low player #'s - it's essentially like playing on the same community server & I've never waited more than a minute for a game. You'll quickly get to recognize who good players are by name & I think it's cool to get put into a game and take a look at the teams and go "oh they have soandso, they are going to put me on a cross."

Organized 7v7 games play very well too (there is a Comp Discord with a Pug Bot that works great), and people are pretty inviting to newbies if you explain that you've never really played the game before.

Don't read into the horror stories too much. There are a handful of jaded manchildren who do nothing but make alt accounts & shitpost on reddit about Erez (the CEO). The current lead dev (The Drizzle) is constantly engaging with the playerbase to gather feedback & improve the game (he actually plays the game too and is pretty good.)

If anyone has questions hmu, I love Tribes <3

here's some clips cause I am too lazy to make a fragvid:

game was announced a week ago out of nowhere. played it for 4h last night and it plays like TRIBES BAYBEEEE

lol

5v5 is the current mode being tested
32v32 is coming down the line according to devs

I had a go.

There are a bunch of issues that will come up when trying to do this, namely that if you're doing the lookup based on a static team list, those players don't always play - so you're gonna be running into stats being recorded under Player A, when backup Player Z is actually playing, which is gonna result in stolen valor. #salutedatroops

I tried to set it up to be a little more automated, and to allow for all data to be pasted into one tab, and that the lookups are done based on the log, and thus the name of the player in the log.

Orange Headers = Formulas that should auto populate over time
Yellow Headers = Formulas that will have to be dragged down
Blue Headers = Calculated Cells that will have to be dragged down
Green Headers = Cells that have to be manually entered

Log data gets pasted into column M on the 'DATA' sheet. I'm sure there is a way to automatically pull this if you have the log url (JSON API that doesn't exist by default in Google Sheets??) but I am a monkey and don't actually know how to use a computer.

If anyone wants to chat about spreadsheets lmk ;))

come see me............................................................................

spoilers below

I noticed this too, but there are 25 symbols. One symbol (ຟ) is used twice.
That said, there might be 26, as the formatting might have gotten offset because languages are being combined. I'm not sure if these 2 dots are something, or if the little circle in this symbol is supposed to be something separate.

Spent some time going through and getting the remaining parts of the first message.

For ease-of-use, I created a Spreadsheet that tracks & lists information about the symbols.

If any of this means anything to anyone, hmu.

Still don't know if this is a troll, but some time was taken to at least go to Wikipedia, and rip & compile the images, so kudos to you Pantry (I am learning so much!!!!)

FWIW, parts of the 1st message appear in the 2nd.

can't guarantee this is correct. I'm wondering if some of the symbols are representative of digits? (i.e. a symbol is the xth letter of the alphabet in whatever language)

flames are Canada's team - sorry guys i don't make the rules

Congratulations to the CAL TF2 Season 1 Champions

that was tyranny

That's insane - thank you.

Some of the most fun I've ever had was when I was playing this game, so to be on this list is cool.

some random memories of people here:

• saber07 - real ones know
  
• vhalin - this is when I knew this list was gonna be good cause research when into it. I forgot about the flowchart lol. my old scout partner. my brother. we won open together. when x6 beat us on lan, I went over to shake their hands and congratulate them. Like 20 seconds later, Carnage comes up to me and says "yo, don't shake vhalin's hand, he stuck it down his pants right before they won." legendary move, but history has decided i am 100% the better player.
  
• casey - was blind in one eye afaik https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ab0J0Uqhmcc
  
• muma - thought you would be higher. happy you had success in ow, sorry I facetimed you on snapchat randomly like 2 years ago.

Canucks made pretty good offseason moves (Dickinson, Phil Di Giuseppe). If Demko steals some games they can be really good.

I'm ready for another year of my 16th place flammies :(
