Just in case anyone wonders what's going on - some of the dark side of the community exploited the site and managed to post scrims as other people. Fairly clear what the exploit was which has now been undone and plugged up so it can't happen again. While I recognise it was a security hole, it definitely disappoints and upsets me that people in the TF2 "community", using a service for that community, find it more fulfilling to abuse weaknesses rather than help to fix them.

On the plus side, a fair few people who DO want to help have been pitching and doing a great service so faith is not entirely lost!

Please enjoy a Google sourced picture of an iron until I get home from work tomorrow (6pm BST) and can push the fixes live. Future scrims is >50% done so that should be coming soon too :)

As ever, please let me know your thoughts on anything!

Theres been a lot of scrims hosted but only a few challenges :/ things should pick up once more people know about it and even more so once I sort out live scrims which should be this weekend

Hey everyone, tf2scrim.com is now live in open beta so please check it out and feel free to spread the word. Any suggestions or issues please let me know ideally in the Steam group but here or directly to me is fine too.

Also, a very kind player named Cherry had the domain scrim.tf and has kindly donated it to this site! So there is a vote on the site over tf2scrim.com vs scrim.tf so please let me know your thoughts on that too and we may end up changing the domain again, but this would definitely be the last! xD haha

Thanks :)

Thanks for the kind words and suggestions! I'm almost definitely making the change to tf2scrim.com. Unfortunately Steam doesn't let you change group names, but that's not a major issue.

And thanks for letting me know the CEVO divs, I'll add those tonight!

And yes its world wide. I've only referred to EU and NA so far as examples, but the site is accessible from anywhere and there is already SA, Asia, Africa and Aus options in region. If those continents have different tournaments with different leagues then anyone who knows those please let me know, but I'm sure I can find them with a little googling

Hey,

I'm not sure if anyone is watching this thread, but just in case here is a small development update on what I've added to the site over the last week.

Mainly:

• "League" selector which gives access to better variety of divs
  
• Auto connect to server
  
• Probable change to tf2scrim.com
  
• Some other small updates

If you know the American divs better than I do (which you probably do) please feel free to correct what I have on the site!

Extended version in commentary/demonstration form:

Please everyone ignore index2.php IT'S SUPER OLD AND NOT MEANT TO LOOK GOOD xD

As for divisions, I will probably add a "league" drop down where you can pick UGC, ESEA or ETF2L which should cover most of the bases. Content in the "division" drop down will change accordingly.

Also there's some debate over tf2mix.com vs tf2scrim.com so I've set up a tiny survey on the homepage and would love people to select the URL they prefer. You have to log in through Steam so I can stop people voting twice. If you're skeptical, just check the URL you are on after "sign in through Steam" and rest assured, all that get's returned to me is your Steam ID and a confirmation you are who you say you are.

vote on tf2mix.com

Thanks again for all the supportive comments and feedback :)

Thanks HK. I have actually just bought tf2scrim.com and it is now redirecting to the same page. I am not actively looking for devs but I think it's awesome you'd love to help out. I've added you on Steam (hope you don't mind) so click me up when you're next online and we can chat! I've also logged your suggestions from your other post. Some of it is more attainable than other parts lol :P

I'm not looking to overshadow/copy/replace/rip off an NA PUG interface in any way. As some other posters pointed out, mix is a word used in EU pretty much interchangeably with scrim, but I've got tf2scrim.com now as well and we'll see how things go I may run both or switch over to use one permanently.

Thanks for the suggestion, Cymru am byth. I actually bought tf2scrim.com which will hopefully suit the NA players a bit better.

Good suggestion XD

While that'd be awesome, the new gtlds are a con. Last time I checked www.rebecca.blackfriday was still available so maybe I'll snatch that up...

Thanks drak. When I make it open beta it'll just be public so anyone can go on and effectively be a tester. I'm really not sure if there will be loads or basically 0 issues once it's live so can't comment on how long open beta will last. But I'm hoping to open it up like that about a week from today.

That is a very old (in fact, original) style draft with next to no functionality. I can see from the cache files that you found my actual production page so why post the old one which is clearly different to the video? :/

Anything in particular putting you off?

Hey everyone Casperr here from the video! Thanks everyone for the nice comments so far glad people are looking forward! Thanks OP for posting this here :)

To clarify a few things my webserver is in Europe but the website can be used by anyone. Its quite a light weight code base so people connecting from around the world shouldn't have any noticeable lag.

There was no real reason behind tf2mix apart from its a site for mixes and scrims xD potentially the name could be changed, but hopefully it won't get mixed up too often with #tf2mix

I am hoping people will use the div selection sensibly so all skill levels can use it, but we can always reasses how that side of thing works once the site has been up a while.

And Mr Slin good suggestion I'll add it to my things to do! I did consider having an option of "right now" or "select time in future" which may be added too.

Thanks everyone :) I am using the Steam group for feature suggestions so if you DO want to suggest something I recommend doing so there as can't guarantee I'll remember to check here :p

Hey all,

I run an EU competitive maps server at IP:

91.121.211.26:27035

The idea of the server is to give people practice in competitive maps, especially those which are rarely available on public servers, and to practice gameplay with no crit, no spread, etc

I run the server regardless of how populated it gets and I will never run ads or annoying crap like that in case people think there is an ulterior motive here - I use it for fun and to practice and to have fun and practice in a game server, the more people who join the better!

Connect string:
connect 91.121.211.26:27035

I keep a Steam group for feedback and map suggestions so if you want to contact me please feel free to do so in this thread or on the group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/CasperrsCompPub
