I might take my time later to read all these messages but I will at least answer to the most important questions regarding #tf2mix.
The reason why I chose Quakenet in the first place was to consolidate the TF2 scene to one network. The European scene is already using Quakenet and it seemed like a logical choice. They are the biggest network and have been there since almost forever (one of the oldest). This proves that it would be a safe decision to chose them. The network staff has been very responsive so far and are up to help me out with the HTML IRC PUG client. It's been a lot better than what I got with Gamesurge. Keep in mind, switching to a different network is not a decision I took lightly, it has taken years to acknowledge it would be a better solution for all of us. It's also not a decision I can take on my own, I had to consult every other major TF2 channels owners. The only one who responded positively was enigma from #tf2scrim. Folowed by #tf2.pug.na (Aristolte) with a long time saying "we don't know" from a very late "no. Followed by a quick "no" from the other channels. Keep in mind that all this has been in discussion since a very long time (4-5 months ago).
Now, out of nowhere I start receiving private messages about somebody who is trying to start his own network. Let's say that I am quite hesitant about the whole idea of splitting the whole community to a brand new network that hasn't been proved to be reliable at all. So, I try my best to tell the guy I'm not really interested. Anyway, a month ago I hear about the information that both HL channels are officially moving off Gamesurge to this guy network. I was very surprised since none of the two channel owners from those services came to me to speak about it. Same goes with Fog, I learned about #tf2.pug.na switch from this thread... It's really a big "what the..." for me since none of this "GeeksIRC" thing has been discussed with me and the other channels owners. Which I consider should have been a minimum.
Anyway, if it took me so long to announce anything regarding this it was because I wanted the process to be as smooth as possible but also give all the other channels owner as much time as possible to plan for it. I think I waited an official response from "#tf2.pug.na" for 2 months, to finally receive a "no" at the end. Now they are switching off but to a network I never heard of. Do you guys really know what you want?
Final word, when #tf2mix will officially swicth to a new network we will run on both for a while so we won't force it down your throat while keeping it as stable as possible for everybody. -cinq
while the ban evading was an issue, the tf2mix bot had an issue with gamesurge and multiple IPs connecting to the server. Which sometimes resulted in a g-line ban. Cinq couldn't get the proper support from gamesurge and the eventual plan was to move to quakenet which would provide better support for this issue. The plan was to slowly transition between both servers, having the bot read both irc server channels and properly managing the pugs in both.
Before any of this plan was put into action, Fog decided to move pugna to geeksIRC without talking to Cinq about it.

So you might have seen the other thread about the tf2 lan in boston. This event is on a much smaller scale on a weekday, but if we can have a good showing you might see more events like this in the future.

In two weeks on December 16th we are hosting a Quake Live gaming night! We have 10 computers setup in soundproof booths where you can come and play, have fun with your friends or make some new ones. If you want to jump on the streaming computer and cast a game being played you can, if you want to stand behind your friend and unplug his mouse right before he makes that headshot be my guest, the point is Quake Live rules, we adore the community and would love to have you come down for the evening!
If this sounds like something you're interested in you can see our event page on facebook here and ill also throw up the link to our website for good measure, let me know if you have any questions.
I would encourage only people from around the area to come, but a good showing from the tf2 community would go a long way to promoting the tf2 lan that they are thinking about having.
you got an email pete to contact you?
I would be there
I think care more about tf2 personalities than tf2 content
if b4nny is playing some csgo people still want to know
I know fragile and basik play. They might know other new people for you
yes i did quote something from 3 years ago
Played CS with a friend many years ago...
He was PapaSmuffs and I was PapaPuff. Just thought the name had a cool ring to it, so i stuck with it.
Then, I came to competitive TF2 and found out there was already a player named Papa Smurf. First day I was ever in #tf2pug, he was like "wow someone is trying to be like me (paraphrased)"
From there, I felt stupid and dropped the "Papa". =(

I hope now you understand Puff it was to avoid this.
