Bone

This answers my question of whether or not we're allowed to post joke reviews. Oh well, thanks for saving me from possible embarrassment

+1 Dude's been playing on the servers for about as long as I have, very mature, and isn't a rule breaking dingus. It's about time he officially became a member of xG A:9 M:9

"Everyone's playing Checkers, but I've been playing Chess for years ♚♕"

Wait, really? Huh... That one was supposed to be "Cook, Serve, Delicious!"

What's this? Actually good games in my giveaways? Is that even possible? Well today it is! (Warning: These games were rated as "Positive" on Steam. You may be like "Bone, these games are awful, why'd you lie?" when in fact you should be angry with the Steam reviewers and not me on this aforementioned deception) The Keys: BTV43-RX9HK-D9NW5 The Superfluous MDK20-4NTM7-E7ZID Blacksmith HIT 6CVZA-3WWPW-VKRPM Verdict Guilty 9NXRJ-ZNIHA-J2KNF Risky Rescue(?)

Alrighty, so my suggestions are for the forums/TF2 servers (might work on CS:GO, but I'm not too familiar with CS:GO's plugins and whatnot) Custom models. There are plugins that allow you to change your player model/projectile models. Custom player models would be a cool way to show that you're supporting the servers, especially since you'd be the only Captain Falcon walking around. The bad side is, it's more stuff for people to download. We'd just have to keep 'em under a certain filesize. The second suggestion is Custom sounds. Some servers have plugins that let certain people play custom sounds over the entire server. Or you could use the sm_play command (which is currently locked to Admin, I think), but uses the built in TF2 sounds (and Gabe's famous "Welcome to Team Fortress 2" speech). I think custom sounds can be played with sm_play, but I haven't played with it enough. Since sm_play requires the user to also know the directory of the sound, I figure it wouldn't be too hard for me to write a quick menu for Sourcemod to easily find and use the sounds. If it's approved. I also don't know if it's already a thing, but a neato "Sponsor" tag in game would be cool. I know TF2 is kinda limited in what attributes text can have, but a customizable tag with various colors/effects would be nice. Whatever's possible As for forum ideas, perhaps we could add some kind of effects for names and text. I know I've suggested the stupid Runescape-esque chat effects for Shoutbox, but perhaps that could also be expanded to also include the entire forums? Nothing too eye-gougingly annoying of course. Welp, those are my awful ideas for now.

I could revive FF2... If I felt like it... I can help, but only on weekends.. and like 2 in the morning... How old are these? I'm sure a lot don't happen anymore, or as far as I've seen. Nerfing the charge speeds won't do anything if players use a kinda known bug which makes them charge almost instantly. Cloaking causes a speed boost in general due to attributes added by the FF2 plugin. Same with damage. Flyro and Homing Bonk were popular, but everyone complains about them. Add at your own risk. That's due to a defense boost/goofed hitboxes. Human sentry buster has no back hitbox, like Chuck Norris. The arrows are due to multiple people using it and it being a bug. Same happens with Homing rockets/Explosive arrows. If you guys need help with more FF2 stuff, I'll know how to do it. I've got half my keyboard bound to FF2 for a reason.

Welcome back!... Again.. Hopefully you'll stay longer than a week this time, eh? ;)

It's pretty much expected to get something similar in your inbox at least once: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXZDtTyafV4 Most likely if you used your email for a lot of sites (more specifically the sketchy ones), they'll either A: give your email to advertisers for some cashola, or B: aren't too good in the security department and get the emails attached to accounts leaked. Happened to me once on Patreon when all users email addresses got exposed. Got an email from a dude saying he was gonna leak my Credit card/Social Security number/address if I didn't pay him in Bitcoin. Obviously it was fake, since they didn't have the info to begin with, just my email, but wanted to scare people into paying up.

So, this is a story all about how... I was looking for a VSH server after another VSH server I played/micspammed on (micspamming was allowed, don't look at me like that) shut down, and xG's was one of the only one left. Everyone else had updated to FF2. My internet was ass at that point, so less downloads = more shooty big guy in sweet sweet 200+ ping. After seeing the sweet destructive forces of homing Bonk balls and flying Pyros, I decided this would be my go to VSH server. After playing there for a while I met a Scottish lag lad name of @Rejects (@Hachi helped too...) who actually got me to sign up for the site about a year or so later. And here I am now, as big of a dingus as I was nearly 3 years ago.

Wow, I thought that was just a lead up for a joke. Welp, see you in 3-4 days. Also, as a parakeet owner, I'm offended that you didn't have "Bird" as an option. I say good day sir!

Looks pretty neat. A definite buy for me if they release a new F-Zero

Welcome back to the top @Rejects. Now populate FF2 ;)

No games come to mind for me right now, but since you said software, there's one thing I can refer Wallpaper Engine You want your wallpaper to be a looping video of We Are Number One? You can. As well as pretty much anything you want. It's not on sale, but it's only $4 and it's pretty dang neat

Huh... I wonder if Valve managed to goof up the input in general... We'll just have to wait for a patch then

Seems like a bug with the newest update when they changed the voice codec. Wait till they patch it or add sv_use_steam_voice 1 to the server.cfg to fix it. Either that or we can all just call each other Alvin.

Hope you feel better soon, mang. Don't die on us now ;)

Here comes massive post #2. This time it'll only be 10 keys, but with a special twist. 3 random people who have posted in this thread have been picked to receive an actually good game. The people picked are: @TheSupremePatriot, @Kypari, and @Vector. Your prizes will be sent via PM here on the forums (except @Kypari, I couldn't start a convo with you. Message me on the forums to get your game). Now for the random keys: (Remember to only take one and to post the key you took!) 53MAL-B6DDL-JI3WZ Cuties JGWJJ-0F3K8-HXT9W Physic Monster EZL7G-VYQM6-KELKJ Jet Racing Extreme HJ3ML-3AJRY-PX5MA Grind Zones YZ566-BQT0A-8W2IK Alien Run X6WVL-MW88X-RMPRL Game of Change R535H-2VW2X-06RR3 UFO 8F8G3-WD87X-DZP26 KGB Unleashed FC25E-QB2YI-4V273 Axyos 52M0Z-NICBH-MIVGY Apartment 666

Might need to actually pick up and play Brawlhalla now. Also, congrats man. 6 years is a big deal. Can't wait to see what 2017 has in store.

Unfortunately, there's nothing I can do to stop people from grabbing more than one key, or even get people to post when they get one. Might be easier if I limit posts to about 10 keys next time instead of 20 so I can keep track of them easier (especially since I'm the one who manually crosses out the used keys). Ehh, easiest way to work that would be to have a number list, then if someone chooses that number, then I'd send them the key associated with that number. But then no one would be able to activate anything until I have the time to message them the key. I could also use the number idea, but have the number link to pictures of the key that the user would need to type rather than copy/paste. That would keep bots from grabbing them and users from copy/pasting 15 keys in a few seconds. Even with that idea though, everyone would need to type 'em out. I think it would just be better to limit the amount I post. I haven't really had any issues with key snatchers when grouping 5 keys in a post, so I'll just max it at 10 next time.
