#60 THE REMATCH IS REAL in TF2 General Discussion
SetsulPlatinum...

Revise the rules if they can't be applied on literally the first case asked to enforce them?
Revise the rules when they prove to be inadequate? Yes.
Enforce the rules when they prove to be inadequate? No.

At first you suggested to enforce a rule at all times, now you're suggesting to revise it as soon as a problem with it arises? If you're not applying the revised rule in the incident that caused the revision, you're screwing someone over and if you do, you basically didn't enforce the (old) rule.

I might have missed the magical solution hidden beneath your list of problems
(reminder:PlatinumSo what would you have done if a couple players were getting potentially temporarily ddosed? What if someone happened to lag? What if it wasn't as cut and dry as 3 people crashing outright? What if the team was losing and wanted a round overturned and decided to pull their modems? How would you know??), but please tell us what rule covers all of these and everything else that could possibly happen so UGC can use that rule and enforce it no matter what might happen.

How about a longer pause duration? That's actually applicable to tf2. 5 minutes rolls fast as hell especially when it takes a few minutes to even figure out the problem.

That's why rules are in place and until you get a lan where you can have on site control and enforcement, the documented rules should be followed. If they aren't good enough to just enforce to the letter, revise them. Law gets amended all the time. I dont really care who wins this but what's the point of having rules if they don't matter?

So outside of LAN there should be No Exceptions?

snowblindfrogWe expect Platinum teams to set an example of fairness and good sportsmanship and not to force an outcome through being a rules lawyer. MF9K was in the wrong for unpausing the match (after 7 minutes) when they did not initiate the pause in the first place. Is there a specifically written rule for this? No, and there shouldn't have to be. Engaging in a dialogue with the other team, ascertaining how much longer they needed to recover their players and being flexible with them to ensure a fair match is played is a show of good sportsmanship and I shouldn't have to tell that to anyone..let alone Platinum players. The 5 minute pause rule is a guideline and not one that we have ever enforced (to the minute) in any division...let alone in a Plat match with a direct monetary outcome. All rules (including this one) are subject to Head Admin interpretation and each match dispute is reviewed on a case by case basis.

What should have happened is that both teams got an admin innovated as this issue was occurring live. Had I been engaged I would have spoke with GC to find out how long they needed to get 9 back and would have allowed them to pause for up to 15 minutes. I don't believe that is remotely unreasonable to allow in the interest of fair play. Had they not been able to recover their 9 players then I would have allowed them to postpone the round that this occurred in to make it up the next night. Would I have done this in a regular season match in Iron? Probably not. But this is the playoffs. Do you think ESEA would allow a win at LAN over a technicality like pausing for a few too many minutes?

Initially I stated that MF9K's attack time of 8:59 was still in place and GC would get the chance to redo. But after talking wth Stabby, I agreed to his request to allow a full round redo. The clock time should be set by the players who are there at the time the round is played. So I agreed to allow MF9K to replay their attack round with the chance to set a better time.

I think we have been more than reasonable in our handling of this situation.

So what would you have done if a couple players were getting potentially temporarily ddosed? What if someone happened to lag? What if it wasn't as cut and dry as 3 people crashing outright? What if the team was losing and wanted a round overturned and decided to pull their modems? How would you know?

VoloderCorrect me if I'm wrong, but instead of lines, someone could make this just like the Open Plugin models, yes? As in, the full image, just with an alpha channel.

Lol oh my god. Get over it, no one on this forum has any affiliation to the girl who was "shamed", so you have no right to be upset. There have literally been alts that were fully devoted to shit talking people a few years ago in this game and ruwin says one thing aboutsomeone none of you know and there is public outrage? Start developing some thicker skin people or you're in for a rude awakening when you get to the real world and see its not actually politically correct.

#34 Best medic right now? in TF2 General Discussion
blinKvileblink shits on everybody
i appreciate the support, but medics get no loveee.

there is no one best medic, it's the best medic for one specific team. lots of good meds like shade, ninjanick, ndust, pyour, fragile etc. different personalities/traits are better for different teams. medic is the glue that keeps the team together with support and loveee baby.

before mixup ninjanick was most likely widely considered just an average, good medic who played for vector. put him on mixup and watch them win then you see maybe he was a big part of what made vector actually good. similar to ndust. a good medic though is only as good as his team.

there could be a medic in open right now on a shitty team that could be playing for mixup looking like the best medic in the game. people just think medic is an expendable class and anyone can play it.

#46 thoughts on blackbox and shotgun roam in TF2 General Discussion

Black box is good for meeting the other teams roamer in a 1v1 trade. Other than that, regardless of any upside it sounds like it's shooting piss and for that reason I can't use it
