A game-wide war between two classes to decide which one would receive the extra weapon added in the update? (gunboats)

I can just imagine at the end of the video he/she/both is about to drag off the mask and before you can see the head fomentation it cuts to black. Page would be spammed with speculation.

We have already have like 100 posts of spam today through out this sub-forum just from a new gamemode. If MTP ended on a Sopranos-esque note, then we are talking about levels of shitposting never seen since TF2 General Chat.

It is going to get a lot worse depending what Valve throws at us tomorrow.
I have my umbrella ready.
Just to get something to start a discussion while we wait, what was your opinion on the worst major update?

If this update ends bad there won't be a Facepunch left to shitpost on. SPUF will reach critical mass and implode, swallowing everything in it's path until it leeches it's way out of the internet and a gravitational shift begins to take hold of earths surface. Several days after that earthquakes are reported worldwide, nowhere near fault lines, and the poles begin to dissipate. 48 hours after these events, the moon, getting caught in the gravity well caused by SPUF, starts to move towards the earth at an exponential rate.
Days later, the streets are deserted, with only the odd "Why Valve" being heard off in the distance. The earths crust is completely unstable and the servers that once housed SPUF are now ground zero of some sort of plasma cloud.
At this point I run out of random shit to type so I end with this. Gabe Newel, riding an oversized golden steam-powered crowbar, emerges from the cloud cradling something in both hands. He looks at the destruction around him and has enough time to shed a single tear and kiss the copy of the just then-completed Half Life 3 goodbye before the moon crashes into the planet, causing it to explode violently for some reason.

Manniversary. Not because the update was bad, but because it was the most lackluster (post-Mannconomy) major update. Besides two misc slots, all we got were 3 reskins, a community map, and hats/miscs a plenty. Hardly anything gameplay changing/improving as most of the update was centered around cosmetics, which is boring for a major update.
On that thought, Steam Workshop was great though.

I may have to agree on you with that, it may have introduced some of my favorite hats and miscs, but most of them were quite rushed in and had faulty phongs and some of them looked completely different from their original workshop edition. It was quite a catastrophe, but the things that did work out were great things, like the long awaited high-five taunt, but technically that was old coding so it still was rushed.
It's affecting my ability to sleep.
fucking valve

As seen in my story on the last page, it's affecting my ability to think sanely.
It's affecting my ability to keep hats in my backpack without pawning them for metal, but even more worse it's affecting my self-restraint from resisting the temptation of splurging my money on keys in preparation for the update.
EDIT: Dear god, why was I reading the Hat Science thread earlier and why do I think I can be one of the lucky souls who can innocently want to only unbox a crate or two and unbox an unusual on their first try?
Just to rustle your jimmies some more, the schema just updated (in the middle of the night too...).

As an anecdote, I got two in a row from unboxes.

Interesting. Weren't most of the Mysterious Promos related to the Grordbort weapons? If so, this could be one of the new sets.

Who are these people?
...is Valve working on European time?

Yep. The first was the Pyro's chef hat with peace signs, and I traded that to a friend for his birthday. I traded the other unusual (some demoman one) for my Chieftain's with peace signs.
We match!

[I][U]Oh god[/U][/I] you so aren't helping my increasingly low self restraint from key purchasing right now. :v:
Also, nice unboxes. You must have been ecstatic.
