    I dont play tf2 as much as I was but I could make scheduled practices and matches no problem so count me in.
     
    also I want to bat for either 9v9 highlander or 4v4. I feel sixes and ultiduo are too regimented meta wise. this is a for fun event and while we want competive plugins and the conp experience, Id prefer to leave the every team running the same strat in 6s and ultiduo where it belongs.
     
     
     
    plus Ive played a few 4v4 matches and its great, you cant expect what anyone is going to do and there is no set meta, so you see both trying to outpick the other team in more than just the push/hold on last. long story short its an underrated gamemode with a huge mental game in character selection, much more so than the few times in 6s that you run a sniper or spy.

    A music room, preferably with "sand", not everyone should be forced to listen to it though, only if you're around the music room.
    Also lots of actually good copyrighted music, artists like "The Black Keys" come to mind.
    And xG memes everywhere, the "are you insane!?" emote, tatost's head, maybe an image of a duck with the title that says "the dark lord".

    From what I've personally seen, tgh has a lot of maps, but we usually only play on a minority of them. In terms of which server, tgh or poketrade, should get the map, I think that poketrade should get it, as it has a lot smaller choice of maps than trade gaming history does, and the community has explored the ideas of adding quite a few new pokemon maps. So far, nearly all of the pokemon maps have been very unbalanced, one-sided, made only to be accurate to the games they're from instead of incorporating balance into them. TGH can always get more gaming history maps, since lots have been churned out.
     
    tl;dr - poketrade because most of the maps we tried have sucked

    Plugin here: GitHub - fwdcp/random-melee-crits: A plugin for SourceMod that disables random crits on all weapons except for melee weapons.
     
    So here I was, watching a Sirky video, when I was reminded of one of his balancing suggestions.
    I thought to myself, "Hey, I wonder if a plug-in actually exists for this?" when lo and behold...
     
    Anyway, I was looking for some kind of compromise. Random crits benefit classes such as Soldier and Demo way more than other classes, to the point of it being stupid, but even classes with a shotgun sometimes get the random benefit of being able to snipe someone for 180 damage a mile away or something. In short, random crits on guns are stupid, you literally just randomly deal more damage occasionally for no reason. Take it from someone who spawncamps frequently, allowing me to just shoot a rocket and randomly deal three times it's normal damage in a wide radius is actually stupid.
     
    When I discussed this with people like Shwoosh however, he talked about how he would miss stupid stuff like stickyjumping into someone with a pan and """market-gardenering""" them. At the time I agreed, I assumed random crits were just the price we had to pay for really stupid fun stuff like escape-plan battles and medic-chaining. There's also significant risk in fishing for a crit with a melee weapon, as melee tends to be the absolute worst weapon slot in the game, having limited range and windup, so you actually are trading potential safety in using your gun for the ability to random crit.
     
    I think this plug in would satisfy both sides. Soldiers and Demos would no longer be able to wipe your team in spawn by shooting one lucky rocket or sticky, but at the same time we'd preserve the ability to do things like ubersaw critting and the "market pardner".
     
    Thoughts?

    Hello. Previously I cancelled my own application for mod after I really fell off playing TF2 for a while. Recently I've picked it up again, and while my hours per week aren't nearly as insane as they were before, I'm usually well over the 14 hours required per week.
     
    The real issue I see is that recently there's been a plethora of mic-spammers, rule breakers, etc on Poketrade, and unfortunately Poketrade seems to be the red-headed stepchild to Trade Gaming, which means there aren't generally mods on/active when there's a problem. Really I'd just like to be able to back up warnings with some kind of mute/kick/etc. because having an eleven year old literally just making whale noises on the mic for half an hour while people warn him to stop and have no way to back it up is one of the most frustrating scenarios, and only compounds the issue of people seeing Poketrade as inferior to TGH.

    ael_fjordling reacted to LAN_Megalodon in Goodbye For Now   
    While I agree with your statement in a general sense, I think it's an awful idea to open up the door to, "I'm leaving because ____ got admin." or, "I don't like ____" or, "_____ is toxic." Any grievances with anyone should be compiled into abuse reports so that the problem can actually be solved. I wasn't around, but from what I've picked up, there was period within this clan where quite a few people were stepping down or leaving because of admin positions, specific promotions, etc, and that doesn't seem like a great time.
     
    My point merely is, claiming someone is toxic and having no, or only anecdotal evidence, doesn't do anything to improve the situation, and probably just heightens aggression. I realize however that this is probably not the only reason for Skeletal stepping down, and I wish him the best in whatever he does from here on out (in fact I hope he might come back some day).
     

    Nobody likes bullshit drama, but people can have issues with each other and state them without it developing into that, Tatost. If tuna is part of the reason he stepped down, that's fine, he's at no fault for stating it. I think Tuna's a nice enough guy but I'm not jumping on Skeletal here simply because he might have issues with Tuna that I've never known about. Also, if you don't want a situation to develop into a "firefight" you probably shouldn't belittle anyone by implying that they're immature or unfit for staff simply because of an opinion.
     
    tl;dr version:
    1. The clan isn't Salem, and we can't hang someone off of rumor. (You know, due process, "innocent until proven guilty" and all.)
    2. Tatost, why even bring this up here if you wanted to discuss it in private and "avoid a firefight"? You've inadvertently turned this into a shitstorm man.
