Holy crap. I leave for one week and like 9 people (all of whom are on my friends list) are beefing in multiple threads and NOT ONE OF THEM has rap battled?

If anyone in DC over 21 wants to chill right now holla at me. Limited time offer.

edit: no highlander players

"Lyrics anonymous, you never hear me copy."

The scriptures tell of a young, untainted (virgin) scout main who would one day rise above the disarray and bring hope back to the once peaceful land of #tf2.pug.na. A hero of chaos to unite the feudal puglords.

#tf2.pug.na was once a rich and fertile land, where gamers young and old, and older (fzero) could enjoy tf2 pugs together in harmony. But the peace would not last. The good times came to an abrupt halt when Fog the Terrible (interpret that how you want) threw #tf2.pug.na into the bowls of geekschat IRC, where not even the boldest of team baiting "hit .ss every death" players dared to venture. There was a resistance, but Fog had allies. Powerful ones. Allies such as Smaka the Elder, and Cyzer the 18th Best Scout in Invite.

The resistance was no match, and #tf2.pug.na was plunged into darkness. The hope of pug.na now rests on the shoulders of who the prophet Fzero believes to be the chosen one: Bape, the last still-pugging member of the Revolution, to ascend to the heavens and in Promethean fashion bring light down to us all.

"Grandma" glasses
"hipster" glasses

I'll have you know that back in the day your grandma was rocking this shit to the club and hoping to get some with many "grandma glasses" clad men who were on top of their pimp game. It's our generation that's lost its way - wearing this bitchmade, lightweight, strawberry flavored microwave popcorn ass shit that passes for glasses these days.

Old folks see you in your D&G extra slim frames and think "This dude is softer than wet toilet paper." Old folks see me and know to step the fuck back 'cause they know I'm a thug. Holla.

Took a selfie while I was pooping. Just for you guys.

Are you worried about your aim or your mind?

That's a really dope background. Did you make that?

Nah. Have faith. It's shit now, but generally the the "initial shitthread phase" of a shitthread is pretty bad. You gotta wait til after "apology phase 1", when what I like to call "the shit thread renaissance" happens. The second pointless argument is usually way better than the first one. Who knows? Someone might even threaten to beat someone up again.

I was gonna say add me, but fuck that. Add him. Holy shit.

Soooooooooo...

Rap battle?

Crespo.

BRB messaging bape all my secrets I TRUST HIM YO HE WONT MAKE A PASTEBIN!

Can we please go back to the part where we wonder how the fuck people are still finding pastebins of sensitive conversations?

Like, how do you not know by now who is and who isn't going to sell out your "private" messages? Holy fuck.

A big thing is like, don't overstep yourself. Don't try to be someone you aren't. If you're not an ex-invite superstar, don't start giving overly critical analysis like you are one, because your analysis will be wrong, and you'll look like an idiot to anyone who knows jack about the game.

Don't try and be funny. Funny shit will happen in tf2. It will speak for itself. If you have a good co-caster, little funny moments will happen between the two of you naturally. It's not something you should think about or try to force.

In that same note, don't try and hype a situation up. I always roll my eyes when casters just start screaming or in some cases even pretending to lose their shit about crap that isn't even a big deal. Some people eat that shit up. But those people probably watch the casters you aren't so fond of and are just fine with them - because let's face it, most tf2 players don't actually know very much about tf2 and are easily satisfied. From your post, I'm guessing you don't want to be some run of the mill caster loved by the OMG SIGN MY SCATTERGUN part of the community, and thought of as an absolute joke by people who actually play/understand the game.

So, for real, don't try to generate hype that isn't there. It's really fucking cheesy. TF2 is a game that is full of clutch and insane moments. You don't need to hype shit up. Crazy shit will happen on it's own. You just need to catch it, and cast it.

Keep shit real. Don't be fake.

People don't expect you to be perfect, just be you. You don't need to be all knowing - but when you don't know something, you need to know where and how to find it. Don't feel like you have to go it alone. Cast with someone who compliments you, and cast in a way that compliments the person you cast with.
