krakyneeeRussianGuyovichhttp://www.cbsnews.com/news/hillary-clinton-stands-by-her-defense-of-1975-rape-suspect/yeah, someone doing their job is usually more well regarded than talking about forcing yourself on a woman
Talking about grabbing vag is worse though
rip russianguyovich's post. he blew ur ass out of the water, russian. ur dumbass probably didnt even read the article.
I did. You can't claim you stand for women's rights and smear someone to this level in a sworn affidavit. It's simply yet another example of double standards from Clinton. If this insistence from the judge that a woman represents the defendant is actually true, it was still a choice to take the case, and she chose her career - just like her stance on same-sex marriage. It's all about the vote now.

Whatever happened to dinner and a finger?
I think the vast majority of those involved in the comp TF2 scene are willing to adapt to things if it means Valve are going to get onboard, but the problem is we get no real indication as to what is expected from our side. If they really are making balance changes on weapon usage alone for competitive as you speculate Seanbud, then they aren't doing it right in my opinion. Maps like Swiftwater are terrible in 6v6 for example. Are they keeping it in the pool with the intention to update it based on how matches are played out, or is it just because there's no way of rating how enjoyable it is in-game?
Weapons are banned for a reason in competitive, which is now solidified with the unification of whitelists. There's ample sources of feedback which will help them to determine the best path to take.
AlmieYes, other gaming communities are toxic as well (CS:GO, Dota, LoL), but it's a different kind of toxicity, it's mostly just people blaming other people when they're losing, here it's 6s players being toxic towards non-6s players. Someone who enjoys LoL has to put up with the toxicity or stop playing. Someone who enjoys TF2 doesn't have to put up with the toxicity of the 6s community and can just go back to pubs and that's what people will do and it prevents growth of the comp scene.
Also, all of the memes like "lol hl" or remove pyro or "lol spy/sniper/engineer mains", which are inherently mocking non-6s players, and the excuse is that it's just a joke, don't take it seriously? Well guess what, it doesn't matter if it's a joke or not, if an outsider sees a bunch of these memes, he's gonna perceive the community as toxic. Assuming that I have a problem with these because they personally upset me is kinda funny, because after all I agree that 6s is better, but it wasn't the memes that convinced me, it was me trying to play both formats (and I was initially turned off from 6s because it seemed like it was full of toxic elitists). Newbie mixes and such are nice, but they all need the player to actually be interested in the first place, and chances are a new player is going to stumble upon some toxic "meme" mocking his favorite pub class way before he finds newbie mixes, or even thinks of joining a team.
And I am not trying to say that Valve doesn't support comp tf2 because of the toxicity, they don't support comp tf2 because it doesn't generate enough viewers and pubbers don't care and this is due to multiple factors, but toxicity is one of them. And to be fair, the community seems to be putting in some effort to reduce the toxicity, but my main point still remains - if you think the toxicity is not there/isn't a problem, you are delusional.
Here's some wank material

I'd recommend you ensure every participant is registered on ETF2L. Having ran a cup once outside this infrastructure and ended up with people using alts, it's not something you want to deal with.
acRussianGuyovich"games will be streamed throughout the weekend over at twitch.tv/blackoutgamingtv.";
Are tf.tv going to allow the match ticker to be used for this, or is it still a Highlander-free zone?
I don't see your point. We've used the match ticker for other streams in the past.
I'm away camping this weekend so I'll miss the coverage. I hope it goes well fellow TF2 pals.

riotbzJust to throw a suggestion out there while we're on the fundraiser topic
If we threw all our fundraiser money into a massive prizepool (which this amazing community could easily raise $50k+ for) instead of into the teams, how likely is it that bigger orgs would be willing to sponsor these teams and pay for travel expenses so they can go overseas to sell their brand? That is, after all, their end-game; publicise their brand/sponsors. Even Australian orgs have the potential backing to at least pay travel expenses. The prizepool would be large enough and distributed well enough to justify it IMO.
Just look at overwatch. Not a great game, but it has lots of money in it and, as a result, big orgs.
Thoughts?
I think this is worth a shot personally. I'm all for helping to fund the production crew and travel for teams etc. but this has been our primary focus for several years now. Maybe it's worth a punt to just get a sizeable prize pool announced well in advance of a LAN and determine how willing orgs are to sponsor teams to go and provide them with PCs and accommodation. This could also provide top teams/players with greater motivation to stay with TF2 as there's something to work towards.
One problem is that it may not be a long term solution, as you're not funding the bare minimum required to host a LAN. You'd really be going in with the hope that there's enough publicity and support to ensure sustainability in the future without the need for such large community-funded events.
Are PAX South (January, San Antonio) or East (April, Boston) potential options here? It sounds like they have had TF2 tournaments in the past, but they've been extremely casual affairs.
