You can't get an athletic visa for e-sports (especially less popular ones) in most places. There is no central governing body on e-sports to endorse the competitors' visa application (which is required for an athletic visa).

Far too long has Sideshow ruined EU invite pickups by picking terrible teams and dribbling. We demand change, we are tired of this system, where the biggest dribbler is awarded by getting to pick team every single time. His track record is absolutely awful, he loses 80%+ of his games and he is always captain. Please end his reign of tyranny, and strip Sideshow of his captain privileges.

Sign this petition if you want TF2 to grow into a healthy and prosperous community, free of dribblers who actively try to ruin pickups.

gg. lot of technical problems and wrong config but the support was really good.

also, LFT for sunday cup

ETF2L Season 21 was actually ETF2L's 22nd season (AFS 2010 was between season 7 and 8).

This means Herr_P played 20 seasons before finally reaching prem with Ze Knutsson Rollerbladers.

Everybody should just stop whining and sign up for the cups. The more signups there are, the higher possibility there is for increased prize pools, bigger tournaments and cups, and this will generate more interest for TF2 which will make our scene grow. You gain a lot more experience playing cups where actual money is on the line than playing a scrim. There isn't even a sign-up fee.

Also a good tip for ETF2L high/ESEA-IM teams. Play these cups even if you think you will not win, because they give a very valuable experience. All good teams have bad days, and you can really exploit this fact in one-night cups. Also, causing an upset is the greatest feeling ever.

Signing up as soon as I get everyone on the roster.

Oh yeah, this is the stream where Sideshow struggled for over an hour to get 10 point on sniper on a pub.

Ok I see what you mean. Bo3 grand finals at 21 CEST is perfectly acceptable.

Allow picking up dropped weapons pls. And yeah, moving it back one hour should be the optimal solution because most of the players are in CET.

Says it ends 0:40 in the night, which is 1:40 is Finland.

The EU wednesday cup ends extremely late and also starts very late. Can't it be moved back 1-2 hours?

Yep Tarkus and MatnuN from the Israeli version of cc. MatnuN also got VAC'd on TF2 last year RIP.

It will change the hitreg by a bit (but not really).

Basically, before this update, it was the client that generated the spread of pistols/miniguns. Hacks abused this by forcing the client to generate a perfect spread. In this update, Valve removed the client's possibility of generating spreads and moved that to the server instead, which means that there is no bypass. Nospread hacks are patched forever.

This does however have a minor effect on hitreg; since it's the server that calculates the spread of weapons, the clients visualisation of bullet holes (decals) and tracers (from muzzleflashes) do not match the server's. Where your client shows where a bullet lands, is not necessarily the same spot the bullet landed on the actual server. This only applies to weapons that have a random spread (pistols and minigun), as shotguns and scatterguns in a competitive gamemode doesn't have a spread.
