[QUOTE=emmens;35550973]The term 'Sweets' Can't you just say "if you accept this offer I'll throw in some extra good stuff?"
Saying sweets makes you sound horribly underaged for some reason.[/QUOTE]
I always keep a few Candy Canes around for people who ask for sweets.

Candy Cane isn't enough. You need Dalokohs Bar.
[QUOTE=Fillmore;35541507]Fucking Steam Trading. At the moment it's just fucking horrible trying to trade anything with it. I was selling a Coupe D'isaster to some bloke called Shepard, and the Steam Trade crashed like 20 fucking times in a row before finally working.
Good god do I hate Steam Trading now.

There are only two words for steam trading.

For some reason I imagine traders who say "sweets" to be very poor. Like this:

I know it's dumb to get mad over it, but people that mispronounce 'Machina'. It makes it seem like you never took a single Language Arts class in school.

I've met these before.
I dominated one and got banned for being a "hacking faggot"
I didn't know meatshots were considered hax.

Muh-Kee-Nuh
I strongly dislike Machina. Both as a weapon and a character.

Mack in a. That's it.
Here's the source of that Admin gif for anyone that is interested.

Being able to stay completely hidden until you attack SOUNDS nice, but it's not very useful when your top speed until then is 2 mph.
[QUOTE=Spherexd;35550266]When 125 HP classes think they can run up to a Soldier/Pyro/Heavy and kick the shit out of them.
Also when people think dicking around and shooting at ubered enemies does something.[/QUOTE]
A scout that isn't retarded should be able to take on a Pyro head on, and a Heavy that hasn't spotted him beforehand.
Also, [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lC5aesRl3M&t=3m33s]you were saying?[/url]. I also find it useful, as a soldier, to push away the ubered [any class other than heavy] with rockets.
I hate how, chances are, whoever owns Short Circuit #5 doesn't realise the description potential and just has it sitting in their backpack...

I admit I've done that when I was new :v:

I reckon most people used the cloak and dagger when they were new to spy. It doesn't show any downsides.
I'm pretty sure the Cloak and Dagger depletes based on distance traveled, not how long it takes to move.

Nope, it will deplete 50% slower when spycrabbing.

The cloak drained from point A to point B is the same regardless if you move at full speed or crouching.

Added proof.
[QUOTE=OluapPlayer;35556982]The cloak drained from point A to point B is the same regardless if you move at full speed or crouching.[/QUOTE]
Its the same drained, but because it happens over more time, more is also regenerated.
I personally use the C&D for recon work.
[editline]13th April 2012[/editline]
I often camp out in the intel room, spam voice responses while disguised as spy, and give my teammates feedback.
I always use my cloak and dagger. Yay.
I've done it so long that the small amount of time (yes, I know it's not time based) you're given to be invisible is completely disregarded. I just walk and stop and walk and stop and-
FUCK.
The TF2 Economy, I've had it.
I fucking come to TF2 to relax and i see the exact. same. kind of backbiting, envious fighting that i see in the real world, in the real economy, The TF2 economy is equivalent to two dogs fighting over a scrap of meat for the rest of time, And what grinds me to the FUCKING BONE is that this is IDENTICAL TO THE REAL-WORLD ECONOMY.
"just ignore it all and play the game yo"
No. I can't, I can't willingly ignore injustice and wrongdoing, TF2 used to be beautiful, I willingly accepted the idea of trading purely because then equality would be possible. I had a dream, no, an idea, of a free, wonderful game where it was simply "want this cool hat for that cool hat?", where we were not constrained by the arbitrary and unfair concerns of set pricing or any real value of worth.
The dream shattered. The spreadsheet. Why is there a [B]fucking spreadsheet for this?[/B] Why is X worth more than Y? Why is Z worth less than Y? Why do some have to go without while others sit atop a mound of riches? Why do people have to suffer because they're not able to accomplish the same others have? Why. [B]Why. Does. The Mannconomy. Exist?[/B]
I am mad as hell.
Why does this "rustle [my] jimmies"?
Because it's just like the real world, And I'd like to just sit down, Swap hats for hats, and just chill the fuck out and play some TF2, and not be reminded of what's out there, but i can't, I cannot ignore theft.
Why am i saying this about the TF2 economy and not about real life? Because TF2 is an effigy. And i will beat the effigy until its arms fall off.
You can have it any color you like.
But it will always be [B]black[/B]

I am not 100% on my views here, I may not be of sound mind, due to stuff in my home life clouding my view but, yeah. I'll probably clarify this later
