Damn, who advertises a HAT as BIG news (other than hatdrones), seriously that's just stupid you should feel bad KritzKast unless Valve made you in which case you should feel bad ValveKast. Got my hopes up that you might finally release a new video after 2 damn years since the last one. Shit, I don't even mind the delay, it's the teasing that bothers me, "Oh hey Riut look over here we might release Meet the Medic oh wait U FELL FOR IT AGAIN DAMN U GOT BURNED SON"
Or it could be viewed as the only way Kritzkast can reward long time listeners of the show without having to spend loads of money by giving them something that they could show off to their friends. It's not their fault that is was badly timed. If anything, it's Valve's fault for giving them the go ahead to do all this so close to a big update. Anyway, if you are stuck on the quiz, someone made this: [url]http://pastebin.com/D7MsDiae[/url]

Yes, maybe KritzKast could have done more to stop people building their hopes up so much but it was ALL powered by dumb speculation on the part of some TF2 members. It wasn't more than 10 minutes after the hat page was up on the wiki before someone edited in saying that you get it for listening to the next episode. This was absolute speculation on someones part but someone else took that as fact and spread that rumour. The KritzKast 'big' countdown was only announced to members on the podcast and a few related forums where there are a large amount of fans. NOT on the spuf, facepunch or anywhere else. It was only ever intended for fans, the countdown page even said that! Due to unfortunate timing where people were expecting an update but this hat was included in the game files, people assumed this was something important, found the countdown and made the assumption this was something bigger than rewarding KK fans. Regarding MtM, it was bad timing. The KritzKast event was planned for this date for a while. It's bad timing that the doves were released in the week of the countdown but trust me, nobody at KritzKast was ever aware that valve were going to do their stuff around this date too. After personally having threats about hacking my server, the KK servers and the pure hatred shown towards us I feel is totally undeserved, KK never ever ever intended for it to get that much attention and it's disappointing that so many people tuned in with false expectations. Rage all you want at me or the KK guys, as long as you know none of it was intended with any malice or intention to annoy you guys.[/QUOTE]
It was just bad timing, and no offense to them but I really doubt they'd have kritz unceremoniously release MtM for them. The doves are there for a reason, if MtM is going to come out it's going to have us doing somthing with these doves.
I guarantee Meet the Medic will be released when no one suspects it could be released...RIGHT NOW :O Edit: no...its not

They could have at the very least just said, "Yeah it isn't Meet the Medic but still come on in and listen :)".
I agree that the excecution was pretty bad, the wording made it sound like so much more than just a hat was coming. And its pretty amazing how nobody i see in normal servers uses the Wiki or checks up on TF2 news, yet have all these items and clans. It was annoying with people asking me where to get the hat.

So, back to meet the medic.
It wont happen
[QUOTE=Esporeng;30442486]It wont happen[/QUOTE] How is that being optimistic? Isn't that being a pessimist..
But there's no pessimist rating. :smith:
Edit
[QUOTE=CSOD;30449372]I had some tongue in cheek comment written up about the Medic being dead and his wife replacing him. But even as a jest it seemed dumb so I decided to not post it. The only bit I liked about my original post was imagining Ellen Mclain voicing the Medic's wife.[/QUOTE] Meet the Medic will be about the Announcer having an affair with Medic and Sniper plotting a revenge against him :v:
[QUOTE=Jorori;30449427]Meet the Medic will be about the Announcer having an affair with Medic and Sniper plotting a revenge against him :v:[/QUOTE] Does that could mean that the Announcer is the Medic's Wife that Demo mention about is his response line? 0.0

It'd start off with a "Medic is missing" blog post and update. The medic would simply be removed from TF2 - a cvar would re-enable him, but vanilla would be no medic. Then, there'd be a series of blogposts about trying to find the medic. It'd then all end with either A. Medic being found and you're meeting the medic. Or B. A new medic replacement. All hats and weapons fit him, but there's a new set of weapons he's bringing to the table. Why don't you take the time to meet the new medic? It might be dmb but it was a good read. :P

I think the doves are valves way of trolling us. :v:
It's Tuesday today. Possibility of a blog post?
[QUOTE=Thechickan;30452135]It's Tuesday today. Possibility of a blog post?[/QUOTE] Its probably gonna be about the new hat or Saxxy's. MtM is confirmed to not come out this week. So its probably gonna be out on the 21st.

I thought they said MtM this week via email?
It's not a real email.
