I love these kinds of blog posts. Wish they did it a bit more often, it's just fun to read.

I wish they did it more often, but I wish moreso that this blog post specifically was something else.
Like, you know, [I]info on the update?[/I]
not to stir the pot, but these technical explanation posts were almost always followed with a major update in a week or so the last few times they did them.

Meet the design plans scribbled out onto a napkin during an epiphany confirmed 2nite.
Very good. Very good to see that Valve really read the e-mail that said that the blog need more "behind the scenes" posts.

not to be pessimistic, but out of all the major updates we've gotten, theres only 2 examples you give? as much as I want an awesome major update w/ MtP, stirring the pot for no reason gets people excited, then quickly disappointed. I hope you're right about it though.

Don't be silly. However if we see something monday, I wouldn't be surprised at all.
and now the rainbows flood from the speculation thread to other threads.

Those are the last two technical posts they've done, the one before that, the itemtest one, was a week after Australian Christmas.
They don't do many of those posts, which is why there's only two example, but the ones they do, do, are pretty much always followed by a big update
I enjoy reading things like this, cool comparing how similar and different they do their designing to me.

This contradicts an earlier explanation that said Gorge started as a 5cp map. Originally the creator wrote on Reddit or something that 5Gorge was the original

The tyranny of the three shit hats is over.
Let a whole new wave of mapular tyranny wash over us.
I really wish I had the motivation to start mapping again. TF2Maps turning into an anti-tf2 circle-jerk ruined mapping for me.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but haven't we had a blog post in the past about making maps? And items?
