#59 Casting Professionalism in TF2 General Discussion
MarxistIf that means you need to dress up in a tuxedo and speak 18th century English

...is there any chance you could do this? Just for one cast?

Seriously, we can see that your casting is well-received by people who understand the game and take it relatively seriously. For people less into comp TF2, or new to it, I would think your goofball zaniness would be more accessible, particularly since TF2 is a pretty zany game itself.
Obviously, sometimes it's good to be professional, such as when you're casting big high-level matches on TFTV. And when you do that, you are more professional. For your own casts, you do it how you want. Plus, being more professional, focused only on the game, no tangents, catching all the action, etc; that's obviously more difficult. Which is highly relevant when you're solo casting and doing your own camera work. If you were to try and do what this guy seems to want you to, I imagine you would get considerably less casts done, and enjoy them less. Neither of those are things we want.
Finally, people watch different casters for different things - energy, humour, and high-level analysis are the three big things which spring to mind. Of course, you've never played comp TF2 at a high level, so that potentially limits your high-level analysis; but your energy and humour carry you through any issues there and make your casts really enjoyable. Keep them as they are.

#48 I wrote an editorial about the Fully Torqued drama in TF2 General Discussion
CHEERISSTF2 -- the next soap opera. Next up: DJC has a love affair with 7 different women and possibly 3 dudes. And Seanbud supports legalization of weed in all states. Platinum has decided to clone himself 5 times to make the ultimate super-team..... Gabe what have you done!?!
:P

If that were real it would be the first soap opera ever that I would willingly watch.

#19 why in The Dumpster
clckwrkFun ways to make sure you never look like you're trying:

- blame tyrone

Totally applicable to everyone! Regardless of whether Tyrone is on your team or not. I have a mental image now of some random guy in Open missing his shots and going "DAMNIT TYRONE! I BLAME YOU FOR MY FAILINGS DESPITE THE FACT WE HAVE NEVER MET OR SPOKEN TO EACH OTHER!"

#31 Smismass Update in TF2 General Discussion
AllealhookyDarkNecridtehh4ck3r2sy_morphiendhopefully the new medigun isn't completely and totally fuck-useless
When was the last time Valve made a weapon that wasn't useless

Red Tape Recorder.

Pomson.
Useful, but still bad.
Well that wasn't the question... Besides the red-tape recorder is hilariously effective. Plenty of weapons released are useful, just not in competitive play.

Last time Valve released a weapon that was useful, but not OP or just kinda stupid... or a reskin... Hitman's Heatmaker/Cleaner's Carbine maybe?
If not those, then I think I'd have to go back to the Eureka Effect. So, last Christmas.

#24 UGC S9 Schedule Released in TF2 General Discussion

koth_arctic won the TF2maps.com koth contest which STAR sponsored. And one of his stipulations for the maps was that they should be designed with Highlander play in mind, so it should be decent enough, one assumes.

#18 Pick next weeks Fully Charged topic in TF2 General Discussion

Maps would be a good topic, another possibility I would suggest is weapon bans - relevant since the new ESEA season starts soon and some things got unbanned so maybe there would be questions about how viable they'll be?
