Tatsuro Yamashita - Ride on Time (1980)

not the system is a problem, the problem is a mentality of some people who care a lot about internet points, like some people just need to touch some grass because it shouldn't matter so much for people and i kinda understand them because i was like this too some time ago but again grass touching therapy helps a bit
it's good to see that some people agree with others which is valuable to know, ofc sometimes it's just a popularity contest but you can't do much about it

rare prime sanity W

I would open the fridge on mid

it was down but now it's good, I informed zoob to have a look on why these errors happened

is the site code open source? if yes, where i can find it?

do u have the same problem with default hud and no modifications?

i am not sure if it fits you perfectly but i felt in love in russian post-punk, it's very unique with great lyrics and sounds
i made a playlist on spotify called by the genre type, you might be interested

rest in peace, you were always a positive person, condolences to the family and relatives

update:
we have gathered enough funds to cover all our operational costs, thank to your generosity now we have 3768,12 PLN gathered
at this point if we manage to gather more i would like to:
- (optionally) buy LAN tshirts (as yes, we are going to have a LAN merch) for all staff members so at least they can get something out of it as everybody in the team work for free, that in estimation would cost around 1200 PLN
- get a money/keys prize pool so this event would be more prestigious while we already have the biggest gamers in
- we got a 100 TF2 keys donation from masuj which goes towards the prize pool, thank you!
- potentially gather some funds for the next event which will be in summer (non-tryhard edition #middiesrights)
after the event we plan to provide a full list of costs so you can see how does it cost to make an event like this
i would like to also estimate how much are we going to take overall to prepare everything we do timewise so you will see how time-consuming organizing this event can be but it's a hard topic
right now we are looking for sponsors so we can provide a prize pool, if you are interested contact me at staff@poland.tf or @suprovsky on Discord

for me it's been LANsilesia 2019 #summer and the moment we've presented all beers we got for mały
in general someone i think wonszu brought up an idea that we could do it as a some form of gratitude to mały as he's doing so much for our polish community and actually for entire EU, we knew he loves porter (black type of beer, usually Żywiec Porter) so we asked everybody who attended (~40 people) to go to local shops and buy a bottle or two for him

i remember he was quite dissapointed before we gave them to him because he couldn't buy any of his favourite beer nearby xD and he had no idea why at that time
we ended up getting 60+ beers and the way it was presented to him was this

i think it took him a few months to drink it all

finest warriors of tf2pickup.fi i see

event organization funding
we are still short on funds for the operational costs on LAN as we don't fully cover them, please help us covering the event organization at https://donate.poland.tf
as of now we have ~2760 PLN gathered and we expect costs to be 3500-3800 PLN now
we are going to present all costs publicly so we'll be transparent with you all
if you are interested in sponsoring this event please contact me on discord @suprovsky or send us an email at staff AT poland DOT tf (i'm writing the email in this weird way so we'll get less spam by bots)

post-qualification discussion about the event format
please all of you who will participate in the event as players join our discord https://discord.poland.tf, i will add you all access to player restricted channel so we can talk about what maps/configs/format are we going to use on the event, we plan to have a discussion concluded by a poll in which all participants will have an option to vote
i think we will hold a discussion for now and choose what path do we take after new year

spectator signups
we are going to open signups for spectators tommorow (20.12.2023) at 19:30 CET, I will post all details on discord and here
entrance costs 10 PLN and it includes a beverage of your choice, i don't know what are the choices now but i guess some soft drinks like monster energy, coca cola or sprite
payments are thru credit cards and BLIK (polish internal payment method)
there are 50 spots available, so make sure you get your ticket
