Lesson learned too late, my friend. I do take full responsibility for that, but at the time nobody else on the admin staff even seemed interested in looking into the plugin further and I didn't own an alt.

Either way I still think it's a bit weird when a large portion of the competitive community practically advocates OpenPlugin use. Isn't it bannable in ESEA?

Hey guys,

I know you won't care what I say, but let me explain what I know:

The only thing I've ever installed besides vanilla TF2 was OpenPlugin, and that was back in March to test it and make sure that it wasn't a wallhack (and something that UGC ought to be concerned with). I didn't use it in normal/match play, and the way you guys are talking is making it seem as though Valve is okay with the plugin. I'm just as confused as anyone else here is.

I've been working as closely as I can with Valve to get this reversed, but they are still unwilling to give me any information as to the grounds of my ban, so I can't really figure out what to do now. I've heard through the grapevine that I'm not the only community admin that was VAC banned this last batch (one of the head admins of one of the game's largest pub communities also got the banhammer last week). Hopefully this is something that I can hopefully figure out and get reversed, but Valve doesn't seem willing to budge and apparently they don't even consider reversals.

On a side note, I love you guys. I'd totally forgotten about my great pre-comp career LFT thread, and this picture is brilliant:

Rest assured I'm upset enough about this incident that unless I can get this reversed I'll probably be taking a break from TF2 for a while.

Feel free to join the stream chats and ask questions about the map as Hein, 2 time former Platinum champion, and Harbleu, Invite champion, explains how Gullywash works in Highlander. Expect the cast to go for up to two hours (probably less), and come with questions about your class roles or mechanics!

Both streams will kick off at 7:30 PM EST - Hein's will show his POV, and mine will have a free-floating cam and will be the one uploaded to YouTube

What we'll talk about:

Rollouts for classes
How to push mid
How to hold/re-push mid
How to hold/push 2nd
How to hold/push last and push out of last
Sniper spots and sightlines
Soldier jumps
Sentry positions
Open up the floor for Q&A from the stream

Feel free to join the Heinsight Group to be notified of upcoming streams and YouTube postings.

Hey there tf.tv,

Since my Highlander team is most likely breaking up for the summer I'm looking at getting back into ESEA for the next season. I have experience as a roamer, but since I have played as a Medic during the past season of HL I'm open to that as well.

Soldier-
1 Season ESEA-O Roamer (Med Took 3, S13)
4 Seasons HL Soldier
1600 hours total Soldier
If I roam I can also offclass on almost any class effectively

Medic-
1 Season HL Medic (+forward, seed 4 Gold S9)
400 hours total Medic

I have 100% practice attendance since I've started competitive. If I legitimately can't make it, the team will know a few days in advance, and those occasions will be rare. I also can provide a free Chicago practice server for the team.

I am available at almost all times of day, so feel free to hit me up whenever.

Literally the only other HL Soldier I like. Oh, and he's really good.

Fair enough. It was just a hypothetical question anyways, talked to one of the CB guys in mumble after the match and he had nothing but good things to say about the way PT handled the issue and said he felt bad about the result.

Here comes a thought, brace yourselves

I know CB and PT are good friends, but if CB was winning 4-0 then dropped a Demoman would PT have dropped their Demoman too and let them win? This IS playoffs, and PT has something like 13 members on the roster - SOMEONE could have filled in sooner and allowed play to continue.

Not defending CB, just wondering what you all think

Pretty sure crunchy bunch waited half an hour for someone to come in and they only ran heavy to counter the heavy on their last

This will be downfragged but watch the STV or the cast, it's true

There's a fix for that

Uninstall TF2

Forget to reinstall

Almost as good as my LFT thread

Hello,

I'm Moose, the guy that makes the Moose Tracks and Heinsight series of video guides for UGC Highlander.

I will be streaming these videos from now on so that the community can come into chat and ask me and Hein questions about the map while we film. The VODs are then uploaded to the YouTube channel above.

Hell, this thread's going nowhere anyways

If you were actually good with the Huntsman you might make a mid-Steel team tops

This being said, I'd love to see someone try to countersnipe someone like Paradox or Jake with a Huntsman just to prove how worthless it is
