Unfortunately we're not, if you have items to spare donate them to SVIFT.

Yes cos he has one already cost a lot of money to do for him. It was one of the first things we did before we committed to i61.

Roundtimer suggestion is something I been on about for years and amend spawn times on 5cp maps by like even 2 seconds slower spawns for the attackers will make life easier. But this is what the game is now, we tried different aggressive strats since we made Prem amd they aren't working versus the best teams so slowing the game down is the only way unless you find a way to be massively well co-ordinated which the level of co--ordination needed probably requires us putting more effort into practising than we do at present.

Spent your 21 euros already sry no refund

Greetings all,

Lowpander are looking to go to i61 with our main Season 27 lineup, with intentions of winning and hopefully entertaining. The money is going towards funding Mr Epic and Ubrs to come over from the far Eastern lands of Russia and Latvia and will be used for normal costs such as travelling, accommodation and rentals.
Our goal we are working towards is €666 which should cover the bare minimum for costs, but due to the costs of Rentals we are looking more towards €999, so we have come here to graciously ask for some assistance.

Understandably there are many better things you can donate your money for, like rescuing cute puppies, however if you would like to see our team play in the Premier European LAN event known as “Multiplay Insomnia 61st edition” then you can donate (link below):

LOWPANDER LINEUP FOR i61

Scouts: Funs & Mr Epic
Pocket: Ubrs
Flex: Muuki
Demoman: Hildreth
Medic: Crayon

Thanks for reading.

This thread should be locked.

Use stickies if they short strafe you cos then you won't ever miss.

Vani will be our Medic for rest of the season as Crayon has some real life issues to attend to.

Problem I find with Pugchamp and pick/banning captains is if you're an unknown it's hard for you to get picked and play.

I don't know what happened to the concept of having a more Open pug system and a more exclusive one for higher level players but I feel this would benefit the scene mor.

Probably will coincide with playoff games.

Sheepy to crush the infidels.

Rather credit the fact b4nny is able to keep having the drive to win and rebuild winning sides than Invite being a joke.

If that's true I take back my point about nR but it still doesn't take back my point about orgs in general.

Hi Friendo

If you have something called "Discord" (LINK HERE: https://discordapp.com/) you can find games easier.

If you do not want to get the app, you can run it through your browser, there are two good channels you can go to to get 6v6 practise clan wars (pcws)

ETF2L Discord: https://discord.gg/VUBYhQS

TeamFortress.TV discord: https://discord.gg/tvvu8V

Watch how teams post in the channel, but essentially it works like this, you type your "skill level" "which server you want to play on (on if you want to use yours, off if you do not have a server)" and "time (most teams use CEST)" For example, you might want to type "Open off 20 CET" if you want to play at 7pm UK time tonight.

Give it a go and let me know how you get on, you will find most people find games this way.

You miss the point so badly I don't see it worth explaining to you but I am well versed in wasting my time.

Organisations like Nerdrage don't give a fuck about TF2 and "sponsor us" because it costs them next to nothing to do so, half a chance their meetings about whether to engage in TF2 are based on if they ordered 6 too many T-shirts. The tiny amount of exposure Nerdage give this game is laughable so their loss shouldn't be mourned with an article on TFTV or a mention in Backcap or even this forum thread.

I shed a tear when Admirable went to Overwatch because his loss to European TF2 is actually worth a 1 hour video and a long article, but he gets neither. People who give to this community are undervalued far too much and substituted for some organisation that doesn't give a fuck about this game.

I find it laughable you think having an organisation want their team to be successful means anything when the point of an organisation / sponsorship in the real world is to financially subsidize amateurs to help them improve their performance. Football teams get sponsors to invest in improving their training conditions or pay for bigger salaries to attract better players to the club. I mentioned in Div 6 getting better perks from some University Student because my Div 6 team didn't have a server and this guy gave us a server and some other stuff that wasn't as important as a server which enabled us to practise more often and do tactics sessions and so forth to improve our team, so their organisation, though it was a bunch of Scottish students attempting to make a gaming community which died when they got bored and moved on with their lives gave way more than any of these major organisations have ever done.

If an organisation wants to have me shed a tear for it, it should put money where it's mouth is. Maybe if Nerdrage supported their TF2 team by offering them incentives to go to LAN they might put extra time to improve their results? I can't speak for their team, but if a team is offering me free travel to compete at a LAN I might actually put more effort practising than I normally do. Give the team some peripherals that they might actually need? I know if an Org came to me and said "we'll get you a new Monitor and Graphics card cos yours is shit" I would jump at the opportunity. I am not saying this is the reason why they haven't done well or not, I just find it amusing they can sit there and say "dropping you cos of bad results" but don't offer anything (ie the purpose of a sponsor / organisation) to support their players?

Nope, they offer you some cheap shirts and in return you get to promote their brand to TF2 players who may decide to care about their OW of CS:GO team cos they say their name in TF2. Amazing perks!

So yeah they are a joke to me, getting involved in this game because they're not serious about it and I don't blame them for not being serious about it, but we shouldn't be serious about them and give them some special status.
