Things to do tonight:

Replay chinook_a4 and sunshine_a6
Possibly test out highlands_a6a, waste_pro_a13, and windgap

Tonight we might/might not be video games.

I honestly have no idea what we could play outside of a possible new version of Highlands or Windgap which we never tested. yyler released a new version of raybans (which is now being called cp_fen) but he's explicitly stated that it's a HL themed map. We don't have the server size to test HL maps (nor do I think those who do frequent the PUGs want to play the gamemode). I can only assume Phi and Chojje are still working on their respective maps.

We can do replays of Chinook and Sunshine, but I'd honestly like to see if windgap can overcome the stigma of TF2 CTF or if it's just another shot in the dark trying to breathe life into a gamemode that simply won't work in the way comp games are played.

Same place as usual, same time: 10 EST. I'll take any suggestions before or during that time.

Nope.

Slow-paced refers to gameplay that's more methodological and deliberate. Best example of this I can think of would be CS. Fast-paced refers to reflex and memorization, Quake exemplifying this type of speed. Highlander is just slow overall - like I said before, it's a meat grinder where the defending team grips onto the point they have come hell or high water.

I mostly don't like HL because of the community that surrounds it - HL pyro/engineer/heavy/spy mains posting here with ill-informed one-dimensional opinions on how the game should be balanced around them reflects badly for the HL community, but we've got our own retards too*. After watching a few HL matches play out I can say with certainty that I don't like it because of how much slower it plays out and how full retard the utility classes can end up being.

I mean, I'm pretty sure it could be at least fun if some weapon changes were made and actually playable with some inherent class changes, but staring down the laser sight of a wrangled sentry, a pocketed heavy, a pyro who is constantly critting for no good reason, and the standard bombing of soldiers and demomen even with a team that has the same shit at chokepoint after chokepoint doesn't sound fun. Sounds more like a meat grinder than anything else, much like the Soviet "THROW BODIES AT IT UNTIL IT FALTERS" tactics employed during the earliest conflicts of WWII.

Says the "weirdo" who still can't get his story straight about whether or not June actually tried out for his team or if he was the worst player in invite.

Blink do you bother to think when you make a post or are you one of those people who just can't articulate themselves to the point where the person's post feels like they've just facerolled their keyboard?

Hot damn Valve dropped the ball with this one. Should have shown us the controller first instead of building us up and then "wow it's a controller". Really cool features notwithstanding, it's a controller. I have nothing else to say about it except yeah that might be cool in the future and sure I'd be hella hype to get a beta controller but whatever.

However, I'd feel foolish if I didn't leave myself a comment insurance policy just in case much more info comes out so I will say that if the trackpads are sensitive enough, it'll be a superior alternative to standard analog controllers for FPS games on consoles.

I'm alright with the bodily stuff, that's why I was concerned.

So for the last few days of DMing and MGEing, my left hand starts shaking after a few kills. Obviously this negatively impacts my ability to move in-game, but this doesn't happen in scrims - didn't yesterday, too. Is it just random bouts of nervousness?

ok so what you do is you tug out the little paper string

and you slowly peel the foil off

and put the foil in your mouth

This. Don't do what most people here do and talk like they

Every time I think you people can
