hey you were harbleu's friend right?

I've casted a lot of matches for RGL in the past few seasons (and one or two for tftv). I didn't do it out of any loyalty to any particular league, but rather because I enjoy casting, think I'm good at it, and because I enjoy putting out a good product and educating people about some of the nuances of tf2. I've known sigafoo for a LONG ass time, and I'm not one of these people clamoring for a mass exodus to a different league.

But this shit was just absolutely absurd, and I felt I had to use whatever 'privilege' (which is literally just access to the RGL official casters discord) to complain about it. In doing so, I was privy to exactly which RGL figures were behind this petty ban, and I decided to speak up. Unfortunately, the only person who really seemed willing to engage was mitch, who I'm told isn't really affiliated with RGL? Everyone else had no interest in justifying anything to me. Here's the full conversation plus some context:

The other reason that this talk with mitch is all I have is that, right after posting here, I had my caster role officially revoked on the discord and could no longer participate. DolphiN claimed it was because I hadn't casted in a couple months, but I still can't get over that timing. The DMs, for context:

Well, if the shoe fits, I'll wear it. I've been trying to put my difference with the RGL admins aside for casting purposes, but I don't think I can do so anymore; I'm not gonna cast with RGL again until further notice. I don't mean for this to be too melodramatic, because I'm sure a lot of people couldn't give less of a fuck whether one random guy goes from casting 3 times a season to 0 times a season, but I still wanted to share my particular disappointment with the whole situation.

I still don't understand why, in such a small community already, every single different entity is so obsessed with carving out their own little fiefdom and enforcing their own petty little ruleset, rather than us having some goddamned solidarity for once.

funny how every demo main worth his salt (or at least me and I think alex.exe?) immediately suspected that mxr was auto detting

after mentioning that at the beginning of his post he seems to have brushed it aside with the whole "admins didn't really detect walls" thing

*property

we may need to start a gofundme to buy him a 50 dollar discrete gpu from like 2010 to make that happen

as someone who jumped fairly quickly from playing against advanced players to invite players, what were the most difficult things to adjust to?

when are we winning invite together?

the monitor they're demonstrating this with is still a TN panel, the fact of the matter is that cheap VA panels are prolly gonna have really shitty response times and so you're gonna get ghosting at high refresh rate no matter what

I couldn't find its exact response time but I assume this 27 inch one is pretty similar for instance, and it looks abysmal particularly the dark avg

better than being an engi main

thanks for interview, my only disappointment is that he didn't ask me about the spawncamp, that's lore in and of itself! (and an opportunity for me to get entertainingly salty)

Sia is failing this

I'm sure you're right, you're talking to a guy who had to clear cmos with a screwdriver like 1 hour into using his new pc earlier today

this might be an incredibly obvious point and I'm not a tech genius or anything but have you checked for dust buildup inside your laptop, as well as fan curves and stuff like that

I feel like if your frame time is way worse than your frame rate then thermals are prolly the main factor right?

if you want to work very few hours w/ school obligation and just make enough money to cover a pc (because you definitely aren't paying rent), consider tutoring

hell you could prolly find some rich parents who want someone to teach their kids to code since you seem to like that kind of stuff

use the ubersaw, it gives more frames

so I was still on that list even though I told my dad to cancel it at the time (it was on his paypal cuz I first got esea premium literally like 11 years ago)

turns out he missed it because they're now called "turtle entertainment online" on paypal receipts??
