Really, really need coaches tonight please guys, we have a lot of newbies who haven't even played yet.

I'm not on to help tino get coaches for another hour. PLEASE go coach!

Just like our devs have been working on the site itself over the past few months, our administration team has also been hard at work on rules and procedures. Here's a write up by Rand (our Administrative Leader) and myself about how the team plans on moderating the site. The post also includes the list of rules at this moment. These rules are subject to change based on community feedback, so we'd love to hear your opinions on here before our actual open beta release. Thanks.

Really unfortunate that a miscommunication held you back from playing in ESEA this season. The teams are premade (by me and some other newbie mix admins/ helpers), and you can ask to be on a team with friends (meaning you could have maintained your whole roster). See you next season!

I'm super happy that some of the newbie mix teams worked out decently.

We'll definitely be getting into it much early next time around (right at the end of the regular season, actually). Made a lot of mistakes this go around (didn't use my esea referral code so I'm paying for several people out of pocket, didn't wait until everyone had signed up to form the first few teams, etc) that are easily fixed. Definitely planning on doing another one, though.

idk but it is delicious

Hey guys! In 3 days the first month of ESEA subscription that me + some great anonymous donors paid will end. If you have any ESEA premium codes you aren't planning on using (a rarity, I know), please tftv pm me about it. There are six people I will be renewing premium for this week. I'm happy to do it, I'd just rather not if I can avoid it. Ya know?

Next drive, I'll be sure to give all the newbies that pay for themselves my referral code so this isn't a problem. I just forgot that was a thing at 2 am when we started talks of the drive.

Trying to get some people in it right now. Come game if you want.

Need just a few more coaches to round out the night. Thanks guys.

edit: probably good i think

then i sent you info...

guys we really need coaches tonight

I didn't think about people playing Friday matches because of reschedules. Guys PLEASE come coach if you aren't busy tonight THANKS!

Hey guys. We just made a post over at the TFCompetitive group. We expect that we'll need a few more coaches than normal as a result of that, and we'd really appreciate you being there tonight.

Thanks!

Reminder that this offer is still on the table.

1 decently close game VOD = 1 key

I know it's not much, but I'd really appreciate being able to put out some more content on this channel.

Might be going to that as well.

If anyone has any specific criticisms of my voicing on these, I'd love to improve. I'm no getawhale, and I don't ever expect to be. But i'd love to be as good as I possibly can be.

We're rapidly approaching a place of comfort for a public beta. I wouldn't use the word "close" but I also wouldn't discourage others from using it. There are a couple outstanding features to finish, some bugs to fix, and a bit of general polishing to do, but we're in a very good spot right now. As we've said before, we really appreciate the support and excitement of the competitive TF2 community about this site, and we look forward to you guys finally being able to play on it. In the above image is our sleek new logo. Hopefully you guys like it. Feel free to ask (almost) any questions in this thread and someone from Stadium (me or devs or admin team) will be happy to answer it.
