Lets get this signed by Cole :D

Nevermind, instead of using "Steam -> Settings -> Downloads -> Steam Library Folders" to select my previously installed folder (which steam wouldnt accept for some reason), I manually edited steamapps/libraryfolder.vdf to include my steam library. The contents of the file are now:

"LibraryFolders"
{
"1" "/mnt/games/vibhavp/Steam"
}

On restarting steam, it automatically detected all of my games without requiring me to press "Install".

Anyways, thanks for the help.

TVS Gold. Pretty cheap (Rs. 1900 = ~ 30 USD). Uses Cherry MX Blue keys, has a cult following in India (Although you'd need to pay delivery costs if youre living outside India).

I just upgraded from a 32 bit Linux install to a 64 bit install. In the process, I lost my steam installation (not the Steam Library though, I had it located on a separate partition). After installation, I installed Steam again, it refuses to use the earlier Steam because "New Steam Library folder should be empty". With no backup of the game available, I tried copying the tf2 folder in SteamApps to my current installation. However, the new installation has all folder names in lowercase, and copying "Team Fortress 2" to steam/steamapps/common/Team Fortress 2 doesn't work (the game isn't detected). So, is there another name I need to use for the tf2 folder to make it work.

tl;dr- for those having a steam installation with steam folder names in lowercase, whats the name of your tf2 folder in steamapps?

Thanks!

Edit: Fixed it. See #3

According to my plan, I get a 2 MB/s until I've downloaded 8 GB, after which I get something around ~100 KB/s. However, my ISP has been deliberately chaging my usage numbers so they can throttle my internet (my connection speeds drop down during the first week of the month, when the quota resets). I even have logs from my router which show the correct data usage.

Nice job with those cool stats :D

Fun Fact: Of all the largest prime numbers ever discovered, more that majority are mersenne primes, although it is not yet known that are infinitely many such primes.

btw, I also have the same problem with scout, I do fine in MGE, but whenever it comes to playing matches, I loose my shit and end up with a very, *very* low DM every match :(

Thanks! Now to find that song that has been stuck in my head since they played it on the stream.

Is there a list of the cool songs which were played during GXL/i52 (or alternatively, does someone remember the songs played, so we can make a list)? The only song I knew of was the instrumental to "Still Alive" from Mirror's Edge (always reminds me of how awesome these events were + mad chills :D).

Thanks!

Would it be a good idea to show a summary of a map before a match starts? As an example, in the i49 Fragumentary, Lange said "The teams were going to play on Gullywash, a map know for its notorious defences and flamboyant offclassing". We can have a little video/talk about the control points on the map, the flanks, chokes, common hiding spots (for backcapping, if there are any), the various strats teams follow (including the usual rollouts?), the map locations (IT/PC, sewer room, just like the one the comp.tf wiki has), etc. It could be a nice replacement for the pre-cast video, and provide for a better (more imersive??) stream experience, especially for some custom maps. So yeah, how silly/viable idea is this?

Wasn't mp_highlander added during the Feb 3, 2010 Patch?

Ditto. Lange has talked about this at great lengths: http://youtu.be/X3OWooC0Pi4?t=1m7s

GXL was a huge success. We should really do more of these regularly.
