#89 Valve announces details for matchmaking beta expansion in News
Have either purchased a copy of Team Fortress 2 prior to June 23, 2011, or have made a purchase from the Mann Co. Store. (AKA premium accounts)

Honestly, if they had gotten rid of the purchase from the store clause, then this would have been enough really without the need for mobile authentication, but that wouldn't be enough players. They could've made it for people who purchased TF2 or made a purchase from the store prior to 2012 at the most, one year after F2P. But it is a shame that they had to put up that mobile requirement, it's a bit unnecessary. Just making it where you can only have 1 phone number associated with the account is enough. Unless people with alts are crazy enough to use their family's phone numbers...

#56 What is the hardest e-sport in Off Topic
Thundersn0wHardest game is Melee

Just to elaborate on why melee isn't hardest and Quake and SC are probably the hardest:
SC takes tons, if not, probably the most in terms of multitasking in a competitive game. It requires:
High knowledge(there is A LOT to know), High responses, High APM(or speed in general of playing), multitasking of macro and micro to the core, and mistakes can become very punishing.
I'm not saying melee doesn't have a lot of those, but I'd definitely say it doesn't require as much multitasking. In the end it becomes "choose a field, two players choose a character, fight". I can understand that you have to somewhat have the field memorize and know certain spots to know about, while also knowing about the enemy character in general and aspects of it. But most players at the highest level already know about that and have it embedded by the time the match starts, so what's left is actually playing the match, movement, predicting your opponent, techs, DI's, and etc. But the thing is, is that the players are pretty much able to completely focus in that one battle between two characters, and don't have much else to worry about.

Quake on the other hand may have you think "Well, Quake is just the same thing but in FPS!". Quake is a lot different from a 2D-like fighter game. Quake requires aim(important), movement(in a different way from melee), knowledge(this knowledge is different), predictions, hearing(hear item pickups/weapon sounds/movement), and one of the most important: item timings. Item timings are absolutely important to keep an advantage in the game and ensuring you are able to withstand enemy damage. Quake has a need for aim(which is somewhat hard already at high levels), hearing, and item timings, and just those 2 last things somewhat add more to the knowledge part of quake that makes the game harder.

Don't misunderstand me though, I would definitely agree that Melee and maybe SF are the most skilled and hardest fighting games, but in terms of games overall? I wouldn't say it's the hardest. If I'm missing anything about melee that should be mentioned, feel free to post as I don't delve a lot into melee. Also I tried using some main aspects of each game to explain this rather than specifics(this post would be even longer). I still respect melee as a game being up there though.

#24 What is the hardest e-sport in Off Topic

If we're talking about games that have been well known as eSports or part of eSports history then:
Quake
StarCraft
CS 1.6
Melee
Street Fighter(3?)

As for state of eSports right now:
Dota 2
StarCraft 2

I'd say these are generally the "hardest", in the end it's mainly the old games from then that took a lot of skill. It's a shame that most games played nowadays cannot compare as much to what it was like.

#10 Loose keys in blackwidow chroma? in Hardware
bubblebobbleryeah, you might consider hating on razer products to be a meme, but in the case of keyboards it's 100% justified (especially newer products that use 'razer' switches)

Don't worry, it's also the same for most of their mice. The very few things to love about Razer is probably just color and features but in the end they are just like Apple or some other expensive popular brand.

NaxxBought Deathadder Chroma so freaking awesome and comfortable.

Please repost in this thread if you are one of the 50% that gets the doubleclick issue so we can all have a giggle.

#15 Zowie vs Razer in TF2 General Discussion

I've owned both a Razer and Zowie so far.
I've had the Razer Deathadder 3.5G for about 3 years? The shape was great and the mouse4 and mouse5 was nicely big, but I ended up with the cursed double click problem, and so did 2 of my other friends on Razer Deathadder Chromas. Imagine just trying to highlight this sentence, it'd highlight and then go away instantly like half the time. It was also a horror for me in StarCraft 2 since I just wanted to select a single worker and it'd select all of them and I had already made the move action... I have one other friend and have heard of others that had no problems with it for about 3 years also though. I feel that when you get a deathadder, you have a 50% chance of it having something wrong with it. The sensor was great and the feel was great, but the doubleclick issue is just unacceptable.
I recently got the Zowie FK1 and it's been amazing. No drivers, adjustable DPI on the bottom of the mouse, simple design, hard distinct clicks, and the sensor has been known to be very good. The only problem I found out was it's low Lift off distance but I was using a TF2 mousepad with multiple colors, using a complete black mousepad works amazing with it as I used the Steelseries qck. I also feel the zowie mice are also durable and don't get dirty as easily as Razer's.
I highly recommend Zowie over Razer any day.

#5 pipe laucher in Customization

I think this was after the Gun Mettle Update, which added skins to game. It probably required the gun to use a high LOD in order for the skin to be shown in such high quality.

#121 Known scammer alt opening a gambling site. in TF2 General Discussion

A blog I found that is relevant to the chrome extension and about Delta:
http://bartblaze.blogspot.com.au/2016/01/chrome-extension-empties-your-steam.html

There are people who scam in the world a couple of times and they are scum. Delta's continuation and ongoing intention with this is going past the scum-level.

#44 pizza tier list in Off Topic
DrPloxoHow the fuck is Dominos on the top list for anybody????
It's like toasted pita with ketchup on it.
I had to google translate so my ancestors wouldn't get pissed at me.
Mi vergogno di te e la tua famiglia per sollevare te.

Reminder that in the end, the quality of the pizza will just depend where you live/get your pizza at. Domino's may be bad where you are but it can be good in other places. Same goes to any other pizza brand. Domino's is pretty good down in my area in TX it seems and is considered cheap also.

#41 Shittalk.cfg - A Crowd-Sourced TF2 Insult Generator in Customization
davisOk, it works in Dota2, but you may have to play around with your keybinds. Looks like you can't override spell-casting binds? I had to bind trashcan_dice to SPACE (unused for me)

Weird, I used it on like F4 and F5. I exec'd it but it wouldn't show in console or it showed an error long time ago. I had to split trashcan into one config and the whines into another. But that's good.

#36 Shittalk.cfg - A Crowd-Sourced TF2 Insult Generator in Customization

Have you actually tested it in Dota 2? I still have the old shittalk.cfg from years ago and it doesn't work in the latest form of Dota 2(Source 2/Reborn). What I did to fix it was I had to split into trashcan.cfg and whine.cfg since Dota 2 seem to not exec configs with too many lines.
