oh god, someone hold me
Well, I'd say stickyjumper is not a weapon. Nor it is a utility. It's actually a muffin.

[QUOTE=hogofwar;36251223]I've only lied about tf2 updates ONCE, and this is not that time.

It was on the schema for a total of 6 minutes or so.[/QUOTE]
Pics or it never was in the schema
edit: I see now
[QUOTE=ned_ballad;36251248]oh god, someone hold me[/QUOTE]
I would but you are a worm. Worms are not in my usual category of things to hold.

The schema log shows it was added, then removed a few minutes later

Just like we're watching them...

Dude wickedplayer, look at OPTF2 before asking for pics:

This has been posted around 5 times now, do you get it :P
IT BEGGINS !
Guuuys, what's going on..?? :tinfoil:
Knowing that the schema tracker actually has a bit of a delay on it, I'd expect that this change actually was enacted yesterday evening while we were lamenting the lack of an update.
I hope you guys know this was almost certainly done on purpose to build hype

Lagg fixed that, it's only a few minute delay now, if any at all
[QUOTE=Spagetto;36251302]Guuuys, what's going on..?? :tinfoil:[/QUOTE]
Just a stealth schema update and the WETA Workshop items for Scout and Medic going 3D.
It only took until Page 30 of V3 until we got some new details of something we can speculate on.
To be honest, i though it'd take until at least page 50.
On Topic, i'm guessing the badges would be used for the MvM launch, i can't see them just kinda giving those things out to everyone who completes a game.

Oh god. I hope they'll update the game tonight

The TF team builds hype in an unconventional manner by targeting the people who frequently check the item schema instead of targeting the masses. They just let us spread the hype for them. It's brilliant because of how effectively it works -- the only compromise is that people who don't pay much attention are completely unaware of any impending updates or news regarding it.

If there is an update tonight I am guessing it's gonna be before-uber-update-esque, where it had doves perched and stuff.
Er pageking?
I guess I will also say that another part of tf2 that was added a while ago mentioned squads, for the raid mode (which I presume is now MvM):
[QUOTE] "raid_spawn_mob" {

"raid_spawn_squad"

nah either it's tonight or Monday starts day 1.
MvM might work as such
Update tonight, adds new maps, new weapons, basically everything but Meet the Pyro
Then we have to earn the "Kill 1000 bots" achievement to gain a token. After 100,000 tokens are collected, we get to see Meet the Pyro.
And it'll be amazing. Like the War Update
...hopefully

the fact that it seems it was up for 5 minutes exactly rang the bells for me that this was staged.

I'm guessing a 18th start day to be more realistic. Usually you'll have a bigger drought of small updates before big ones.

Dude, don't do this to me..I hate when I get all excited and hyped up for nothing.. :(

They've been updating at a much slower pace over the last few weeks.
idk about you guys but.. I really hope it's not tonight. The build-up days to the event are something I love just as much as the actual event..
Brace yourself people
Here we are
Are you ready to finish the game
