If I go to windows and press Hibernate, will it still be on TF2 when I log back on?
[QUOTE=Fatfatfatty;20901190]set computer to energy saving mode, unplug monitor etc. etc.
or compensate by unplugging other stuff in the house such as TV's, other computers, everything wth a standby funtion.[/QUOTE]
Its going to be a hell of a lot of devices to compensate for the 600 Watts :colbert:

No, hibernate just writes everything that's in your RAM, to the harddrive, when the PC restarts, it resumes where it was before going into hibernation.
In between, your PC is shutdown, TF2 is disconnected.

Just because your PSU is rated at 600w doesnt mean it uses anything close to that while idling.
[QUOTE=LetsGroove;20901354]If I go to windows and press Hibernate, will it still be on TF2 when I log back on?[/QUOTE]
Yes. But it's not doing anything while in hibernate so there's no use

You would need pretty hardcore computer for it to use 600 watts

Ninjad on both things. FML
Wait, I'm getting two different answers, so If I go into Hibernate, will I still be connected to the server so I can get drops?

OH LOOK ANOTHER CHOCOLATE BAR
I just got a Backburner.
Ugh I just had 3 of them, I could've made a token but instead I've made scrap.
tokens are pointless
man, why cant i get any chocolate bars!
is there any way to gift items?
[QUOTE=opaali;20902691]tokens are pointless[/QUOTE]
Yeah, but I wanted to craft a Pyro hat so I could've saved that for later.
Didn't valve make an update that made it so you don't get items in spectator?
Nope, Just got Natasha a few minutes ago.
I got about 16 items and only one is somewhat of value.
A hat :crying:
What hat? Also that is normal, you should be glad you got a hat because I have found around 15 myself, the only interesting one being a Pain Train.
FUCK! I got kicked from a 24/7 idle server for being "Idle too long"
There goes my 10 hours of idling for nothing.

Shooter's Sola Topi.
I don't really play Sniper that much anyway.
[QUOTE=BeefMcGraw;20894653]It means the server is down.
If it's "client timed out" then it's probably because you're launching TF2 by using the command: hl2.exe -game tf
That won't let you stay connected to any VAC server for more than 30 seconds.[/QUOTE]
Wait, is -game tf automatic just by clicking the desktop shortcut?
What's the proper way to quit using this? When I close the text box, it still says I'm in-game.

That's as ridiculous as reserved slots.
[QUOTE=ze spy;20906012]Wait, is -game tf automatic just by clicking the desktop shortcut?[/QUOTE]
No, it uses this: steam.exe -applaunch 440

and nothing of value was gained
so far....
[QUOTE=Dorocche;20906284]What's the proper way to quit using this? When I close the text box, it still says I'm in-game.[/QUOTE]
Type quit. Press Enter. Bash head on keyboard for not knowing basic console commands.
[QUOTE=StevenFX;20907075]Type quit. Press Enter. Bash head on keyboard for not knowing basic console commands.[/QUOTE]
You cant type in textmode
the red-x just force closes TF2 [kills hl2.exe process]
So it takes a few minutes for you to timeout from being in-game

use a laptop / netbook (eee pc 1005-ha here), put it in power saving mode, run something else useful too (seeding [url=http://www.mininova.org/user/cafegaming]torrents[/url], etc)

Actually, that update wasn't about getting items, it was about detecting whether spectators were AFK, for the automatic kickers

what the fuck
That looks nice
this is wonderful. 24hrs of idling with this and i got about 18 items and a modest pile !
This just puts you into spectating mode does it not? Isn't it less likely to give you items?

For the 9000th time, it doesn't matter.
[QUOTE=BeefMcGraw;20916871]For the 9000th time, it doesn't matter.[/QUOTE]
Huh. So why are there people dying and not me? Is it because I am using textmode, and they're actually in game?
