Oh my god. I'm crying. This is the greatest day ever.

What the fuck is a ground?

It may have a low age demographic, but that kind of goes out the window when you go into a stream and see people constantly talking about smoking weed (TheOriginalWeed) or swearing (most streams I go to) or drinking (some streams. Also happened at i52.) Or "fucking pools of nerd semen."

I tried taking your advice by making my own server and running it. The game ran my flat world textures on my own server on all sv_pure settings up to 2, which is normal, afaik. So I went into a Valve server, and my textures stopped working again. I typed sv_pure in console to see what turned up, and the server was set to sv_pure 1. So, it seems that particular setting is NOT what's affecting the textures. Any other ideas?

If you still have Terraria, I can take it off your hands.

Recently, I got the Quake textures/Flat world textures just because I think they look cool and I hear it gives a slight FPS boost. However, since I've installed it, it seems to work selectively. I went to a valve server yesterday to test it, and it worked, and then I went to another valve server later and it didn't work. It seems to alternate when it does and doesn't want to work.

This is also an issue for a custom skin I installed for the snipers SMG. It ALSO seems to randomly decide when it wants to work. Both are in my custom folder, the same place I put my HUD. Any suggestions?

Well, like I said, thanks much for the quick response and everything. Hopefully everything gets sorted.

I was aware he made a fake. Otherwise, my response wouldn't have been so carefree. Thanks for responding promptly to the thread, I appriciate it. (And I'm not gunna ask for a refund. I want my damned shirt :p)

Well, shit. There went $30.

I would be if it weren't for the fact that the people there told me about 3 times a day that I wasn't dreaming. All we played was Granary and Gravel Pit.

EDIT: You may not believe us. But after PUGs and scrims, we would actually be able to find servers full enough for us to legitimately pub-stomp.

EDIT 2: If I remember correctly, quite a few of those players ALSO play PC TF2, and do so with a game pad.

I made this thread with the intent to see how long a few of you have been around, see how you found out about competitive tf2, and if you've been playing competitively, how long?

Here's an example:

How long have I been "around": I've been actually watching the competitive scene of this game for a while. I stumbled along the eMg vs coL ESEA finals from one of the earlier seasons. I think that was about 5 years ago. So I would've been 12 or so. (I didn't own the game though. But watching that match was the first experience I had with tf2 and made me want the game.)

How I found out about comp tf2: See above

How long I play competitively: My first season was actually the summer season of UGC. But I've been in a few PUGS and stuff.

(I actually played about two years of competitive XBOX TF2 when my PC was busted.)

Hi. So basically, the issue I'm having is that 3 weeks ago tomorrow, I ordered a FROYOtech shirt. So far, it still hasn't shown up at my house. I checked the conformation e-mail I got and my address, zip code, and everything else is correct. I tried emailing Shade himself and also tried the "Contact Us" tab on the Froyotech website. I'm frankly getting kinda worried.

Has anybody else ordered a shirt from that website and not gotten it yet? I mean, I DID get my name added to the back of the shirt (because why not.) so maybe the extra customization makes it take longer?

Yeah. I'm a steel scout myself, and I can tell you that everybody above me is 100% correct. Right now, you're better off worrying about DM and aim. I did add you though so we can MGE and dm and stuff, since mgeing somebody at around your level generally helps you improve better than mgeing somebody way below or way above.

At least the old development team actually existed.

That in and of itself is an issue. If most of your team doesn't use steam, then most of your team also doesn't play TF2, unless they play XBOX or PS3. So then how in the hell do you expect any of them to know what to do? Not to mention the fact that you claimed that you and a bunch of friends managed to program a bit after YEARS, so then where are those guys? I guess they don't use steam either and just magically know how to program a TF2 bot? Also, you say you can't talk to us because we don't understand how things work, but the only reason we don't understand is because YOU haven't told us how it works. And also, where is this OTHER person whose supposed to help answer questions? Maybe he or she won't be as cryptic as you are.
