    Initial Thoughts:
    I've been messing around with this game since sometime around December/January. I initially became interested in the game when my older brother was playing and I happened to be walking through the room. I have been, since time immemorial, a huge fan of platform games, beautiful soundtracks and art. This game really hits each of those check boxes three times over, I really cannot express how much fun this game is for me.
    Gameplay and Story:
    Note: Controllers with joysticks are recommended, as there are sections in the game that are just easier using the joysticks over a keyboard due to the keyboard's inability to move in certain directions.
    Celeste was built with speed running in mind. That being said, there are definitely shortcuts, and you know that there are going to be movement mechanics.
    Dashing - Your character is capable of what is known as "dashing." Which, as you might be able to guess, is just increasing your velocity in whichever direction you choose (up, down, left, right, and every diagonal). There are plenty of ways to change up your dash, and to some degree you can control the height and speed of each one. I won't go in depth on how each type of dash works, just the main idea. Every way possible to change your dash is explained in the video following the final thoughts. Climbing - There are times when your only choice it to go up, and sometimes your dash just won't make the cut. Off the top of my head, there are three ways you can go about climbing in this game; jumping between two walls (does not deplete stamina), holding your grab button and jumping repeatedly, or just holding grab and up. You can only climb on vertical surfaces, so no, you can't climb on the ceiling. Stamina - Your character has a finite amount of stamina, that being said you can't just cheese your way through every single screen just by climbing straight up the walls. Crystal Hearts -  One of each can be obtained in every chapter, along with two additional crystal hearts for completing every B and C-side of the main chapter. These are the only collectibles that are required to get to certain sections of the game (chapter 7 crystal heart, entirety of chapter 8, and the sub-sections of chapter 9). B-side Cassette Tapes and C-Sides -  Each A-side, which is the main section of the chapter has a corresponding cassette tape that unlocks the B-side. B-sides and C-Sides follow the same theme as the A-side but are significantly more challenging. C-sides are unlocked by completing the B-side for that chapter. Berries - There are varying amounts of these placed throughout the chapter, but some are rather difficult to obtain. Winged strawberries force you to abandon your dash until you're close enough to grab the strawberry, if you do dash it will fly off of the screen and you will have to reset the screen (not the entire chapter). Golden strawberries are obtained by going through a chapter without dying once, but you have to complete the chapter eight B-side before this is available. Winged Golden Strawberry is obtained by completing chapter one without dashing once unless you die before leaving the screen you dashed on, forcing you to do what is known as "spike-jumping," which is a wall jump, just very, very precise. There is one other type of berry, the moon berry, which is available in a sub-section of chapter nine, but is extremely difficult to obtain. Backstory:
    "Help Madeline survive her inner demons on her journey to the top of Celeste Mountain in this super-tight platformer... Brave hundreds of hand-crafted challenges, uncover devious secrets, and piece together the mystery of the mountain." - straight from the steam description
    The game is no longer going to be getting new chapters, as the game was concluded with the very recent addition of chapter nine titled "Farewell." Although I assume there will be bug fixes and such being rolled through every once in a while.
    Pros: (At least 2 reasons)
    Amazing soundtrack by Lena Raine, even if you don't want to play the game you should listen to it. Caters both to those who would like to relax and those who would rather have a bit of a challenge. Includes an in-game completion timer, so you can keep track of that sort of thing and work towards a PB for a chapter. Cons: (At least 2 reasons)
    Serious difficulty spikes The game doesn't teach you any of the special dash movements until what seems like the very end Final Thoughts:
    This game, in my mind, is a masterpiece. Through the collaboration of the developers, artists, and sound team I think you'll be hooked almost immediately. It's a great game to throw down $20.00 (USD) on, definitely worth the price and is on sale fairly often. If you ever see it on sale, don't hesitate to buy it.

    Deko reacted to Red in Red   
    I didn't tell or call anyone anything on the server besides poking fun at Elusion by telling him shut up furfag cause of his profile picture. other than that I didn't tell or call anyone anything buy when I said "suck my dick" it was literally a joke and I was about to say "actually.." "It was a joke" but you instantly gagged me which pissed me off so I changed my name to suck my dick furfag. The only thing I should be responsible for is for evading gag. I wasn't even being toxic nor was I trying to beef people on the server. I'll like to know who I offended besides maybe Elusion even if he didn't take it seriously. 
    I understand if you gagged me if I were to say "suck my dick precious" or said something far worse but I didn't cause I knew I didn't want to start drama or beef but in no way was anything I said considered toxic behavior even all of you seen far worst toxicity displayed on the server than this light situation..
    I know every staff member said or done something they regret but you honestly think you wouldn't get a reaction from most of your binds or make people feel uncomfortable. You say its harmless fun but when I said "suck my dick" it was all in good fun and wasn't really directed at anyone, I changed my name to "suck my dick furfag" as a joke since yall like talking about sucking dick and what not on the server constantly but I guess it offended you to the point where you decided ban. It's hypocritical I got ban for saying "suck my dick" but yall say the same shit or far worse.
    Anyways since i'm getting unbanned soon maybe try to prevent yourself from saying disgusting stuff on the server, I'm not trying to throw shots only at you precious, i'm talking about the whole tf2 staff roster to reflect on what they say cause we got minors playing on our servers daily and they might take everything you say seriously especially when you're a moderator on the server some players may think highly of you. You can say its harmless joke all you want but maybe for others they might be offended the same way you got offended about me saying "suck my dick furfag"

    I'm not really one for the idea of adding bots just for the sake of having extra features. The discord seems to work as a hub for the community to interact with each other more proactively, essentially shout box but significantly better. Things that deviate from that don't really help the discord to foster the community, acting more like distractions then anything.

    Deko reacted to BonfireCentipede in Add ponyspensers back to tgh   
    Back in the old days of tgh we had a thing called ponyspensers which were dispensers with ponies on them and they also play 8bit music
    There was also a command to turn it off which people could use to just easily turn it off forever
    now I know tons of people don't like mlp but I don't see anything wrong with adding this back for the people who do like them

    no thanks, people just using the music rooms on maps makes me want to jump off of a cliff. I have my own music, I don't want to hear a terrible song mixed in with what I'm listening to.

    Deko reacted to YeEternalTuna in surf. we doing an event   
    Imo I feel like it shouldn't be allowed due to some of the things @Tatost said.
    A new player could join the server and think ''oh snap we can micspam/dj on this server? EPIC!!!'' and think its okay to micspam. I understand we have rules set in !motd for that but do you think anyone truly reads the !motd? 
    Also another problem with having these ''story times'' or whatnot, is that it stops people from being able to talk on the server through voice chat. I remember seeing people get muted just because some dude wanted to do some dumb fan fiction reading or something. I think its pretty silly to mute someone who's actually trying to talk and socialize rather than allow someone to essentially micspam and have it be okay.
    This also ties in with what I said above; on top of new players joining, sometimes they join and don't understand what's going on and try to talk on the mic but get a warning for ''talking over people'' when they're just ignorant to the fact that they made a vote for a specific person to micspam. 
    This creates quite the problem imo and I know its fun for you and your friends to have story time on the server but if people really want to have a true story time, they can easily just go in a discord call or something and have it there rather than disrupt the entire server. I think we should ultimately remove the ability for people to make votes like this. no more fun ?

    That's a solid +1 from me. Deko has shown on MANY occasions that he really truly and deeply cares about the well being of our community and all the players in it. Since his first day on our servers he has given nothing but love and respect to all players while taking the time to explain the rules or clarify if there is not staff that he is aware of there. He has caused no issues that I have ever seen and I believe that he would make an outstanding moderator
