This should be casted

Bolwind you are awesome, and I don't even know you. But I *want* to know you.

Nothing wrong with looking for an open team, even if you aren't known at all. Can't hurt to at least give you a tryout. Best of luck!

Yeah I suppose that's true, but it'd still be a nice option. Maybe I want to check how much longer til an event starts, I can open it in a new tab from the regular site sidebar without having to leave the stream. And even if there are just bigger black bars, it'd be a cleaner look. Just a suggestion, if no one else likes/wants it, no worries.

I like that when I'm watching a stream on Twitch.tv, I can toggle the right hand side where the stream chat is, so that I'm not in full screen mode, but the actual stream viewing window is larger. I think it'd be swell if we could do that on tf.tv while watching a stream. If we could toggle the right hand side that shows chat/other streams, and maybe the left hand side as well so that we can see the sidebars containing the upcoming events/articles/threads, that would be great.

So I just moved to Alaska to finish up some school, and now that I'm settled in a bit more, I'd like to see if there are any teams out there in need of a player. Unfortunately, because of my school schedule, I won't be able to scrim more than 3 nights a week, at least until I've settled down here and gotten into the rhythm of school. If you think you won't scrim more than that, or could get a ringer, then hit me up.

I've been around a while, mostly playing soldier, however I'd like to play scout in open. Hit me up for a tryout!

It's not the routing, it's the fact that I'm living in Alaska now :P

High level highlander players are definitely not idiots, and they don't intentionally walk into sightlines or move super predictably. However, since there are 50% more players running around on the other team on similarly sized maps, it just means that you'll generally have more opportunities. In 6s, there's not only fewer players, but they are positioned much more carefully because even the smallest amount of damage can make a difference in the upcoming fights. So yeah, snipers in both formats are there to get picks during stalemates, but there's always a lot more action going on during stalemates in highlander than in 6s.

Edit: Not to mention that pushing/holding last in 5cp with 6v6 is VERY different than pushing/holding last on payload in 9v9.

I think 6s players in general would be easier to snipe, but only until they know there's a sniper on the field. After that, they (the good ones) will dodge much more unpredictably, and will take very good care to avoid the sightlines. The latter especially makes a difference because then the sniper only gets like one or two good opportunities to hit shots, so he REALLY has to make them count, whereas in highlander, you generally can just take shots continuously since there is almost always a target.

Testify is cool

Ictus is terrifying

My internet doesn't seem like it has a bad connection. So if I have a good connection, but high ping, what should my net settings be?

I know there are a billion other threads with info on net settings, but I couldn't seem to find any with info on what the ideal ones are to use on high ping. I've used Chris' settings for bad connection from his fps config, but it still seems... off, to me. What values should I use for bad internet (I'm going to have ~100 ping to most servers) for both projectile and for hitscan? Thanks for any help!

This is awesome. I haven't watched the video yet, but if it's anything like the other post-produced content that extv has put out, then I'm super stoked.

Damn well better know who Robert Johnson. The guy sold his soul to the devil at the crossroads at midnight in order to play the blues.
