aaaand its out of my price range

Seems like the last couple of weeks have been full of mixes starting, and then one of the captains goes afk and the mix is fucked. I'm, uh, sitting on the mumble for one of those as I type this. Always appreciate when erynn comes in and fixes shit but she can't always be around to keep this shit from happening. Like right now, the mix is just fucked. Much as I know there's other shit for you two to do I really wish there was some system for the other people in the pug to fix this. Whether it's just a vote to abort the pug, or captains can sub the other teams players, or something besides just leaving everyone in the mix to fuck around.

nice things

thats a ps2 classic as well tbh

diamond is a swell feller. plays the game a lot and is entertaining as hell to have in mumble. I think he's new to med but he's been maincalling for a season and can no doubt improve to wherever you need him pretty dang quick. also is a raging tard but tbh he's better for it

I can't decide whether the gimmicks are actually bad or if everyone is adhering to an unspoken agreement not to even try them. I thought the Beggars might really come out on Metalworks or Granary, but heck I know my own thoughts on even trying it were just "fuck that noise."

At the start of the season I was gonna quit TF2 but figured I'd just go for one more tryout with a team that I'd scrimmed in the past and thought would be pretty low open. I'm not that good anyway and just figured I'd kinda look out for a chill experience, see if I could throw them pointers here and there, but goddamn it's been awesome. This team is really fun to play with and smashed my expectations of low open two weeks in. It's strange but it reminds me of the team I played with in iron; everyone is getting better really fast and just putting in the work; I really don't think it's a feeling that any game can replicate outside of TF2. The improvement is just so tangible between mechanical skill and team play, srsly godam midopen feelsgoodman

Unfortunately also like my iron team it's starting to feel like some of my teammates are now losing interest in the game as we reach the close of the season. Here's hoping we don't implode!

making an excuse here but Trunks has been surviving against goku black, probably getting beat up and healed up over and over. They don't really talk about it anymore but saiyan biology is still a thing

we're chilling on an esea server with the updated game version rn

esea appears to have updated

I'm low open and quit for three days straight once, AMA

b4nny is simulcasting the game again :(

I don't think it's that Toriyama lost his touch or anything, its just that DB should have fucking ended a long ass time ago. I seriously doubt anyone could have made the recent stuff any less corny. Like yes they could blow up planets before ever confronting Frieza, so where do you go from there? You can't just blow up the earth every single time any two characters fight. If you really need them, there are some simple little explanations, like everyone pulling their punches, or everyone getting better at controlling their power, or everyone needing a planet around in order to breathe. But I think just taking this kids show as a kids show and not worrying too much about continuity is kinda what you have to do in order to enjoy this once you're older. The King of Everything is a child for a reason.

they won't though, because mm is total garbage. you might as well say a sparsely populated pub is comp tf2. If you're someone who isn't already into comp TF2, you're insanely unlikely to get more than 3-4 people per game who actually know what they're doing, and unlikely to be able to recognize what those people are doing right since it's so rare that you get to see them, and will never really get a feel for what works and what doesn't.

to be fair esea is still running rc7
