[QUOTE=Firetornado;52654147]What time of day would a blog post be?[/QUOTE]

From my old post:

"Love and War Clock - 6:58 PM Mountain Time
Love and War Day 1 - 6 PM Mountain Time
Love and War Day 2 - 4:40 PM Mountain Time

Gun Mettle Almost Here - 6:28 PM Mountain Time
Gun Mettle Actually Here - 3:35 PM Mountain Time

Tough Break Is Coming - 12:45 PM Mountain Time
Tough Break Is Live - 3:34 PM Mountain Time

Meet Your Match Is Coming - 10:30 AM Mountain Time
Meet Your Match Is Live - 7:26 PM Mountain Time

Aside from MyM's...early morning announcement (that still confuses me), most of these seem to come late afternoon/early evening. The latest in the past three years thus far has been MyM going live, which was at 7:26 PM Mountain Time, 6:26 PM for Valve and 9:26 for East Coasters."

It is currently 11:50 AM Mountain Time, for reference.

And throughout the movie, Fatmagic has to realize and come to terms that he was the hack all along.

Also my fondest memories from TF2 is discovering surf, it's how I met some of my best friends.

[Seaner23]

My fondest memories of playing TF2 was when I first started, in was scream fortress 2016, my friends had sort of pressured me into the game and I got into it, I've enjoyed it ever since.

[QUOTE=Mort Stroodle;52653692]To be fair a good enough sniper almost feels like hacking, and now that we can't spectate it's very hard to verify. You basically have to drop everything, go spy, cloak, and see if he turns to look at you[/QUOTE]

You can sort of get around that by dying and then continuously choosing your class - i.e. having the class selection screen open, or opening it before the countdown reaches 0 so it resets. I'm not sure why the countdown loops while you're selecting a class, but it's a little work around to be able to spectate people.

I'm not sure what it's like on the default HUD though, since on the one I use the class selection screen has no background so you can see the gameplay.

you can also type extendfreeze in console multiple times after dying, or for whatever reason you want to spectate since the start, just don't select a class in preround, once the countdown ends you're spectating

My favorite memories have to be between the release of pl_cactuscanyon and its removal. I have probably 800 hours on that map and got my first Hale's Own from playing it (Grenade Launcher). Queueing into the Valve quickplay servers almost always had the same regulars and I was sad that I couldn't play with them anymore. Luckily I found them again on the Nemu's server and have been able to reconnect with some of them. :)

Today, our hype train will be fueled. :hypeisreal: Optimistic
Or completely destroyed. :hypeisnotreal: Dumb

What will happen? Vote. Whoever is right might get a beautiful scrap metal. I'll use the Random Name Picker.

Guys, maybe if we sing the "Valve, please update our fucking game" song, the blog post will come faster or Uncle Dane will get the crucifixion he deserves. Either way it will be funny to watch r/tf2 collectively collapse on itself.

Here are the lyrics to the "Valve, please I beg you for a fucking update my love"...

A bit late but my best memories of TF2 are the first Scream Fortress or the times that balloon race map was extremely popular.

The first scream fortress is what made me appreciate the trading system in the game that I had never cared about before, solidified Mountain Lab as my favourite map in the game (Now just in front of Powerhouse and Asteroid) and made me love the event updates that happened like Smissmas and the future halloween updates.

And those 2 skial servers that run balloon map were pretty much my go to servers for years whenever I wanted to play a non-serious game ever since they were put up, which must have been some time before the War update because I remember trying out the new weapons from that update for the first time on the servers. I met a good number of my TF2 friends on there as well. I still have them favourited from back then but they literally haven't had a single player on them for about 2 or 3 years now. :(

[Stroheim]

Favoirte memory is a 4 way tie between Ghost Fort, Spy v Sniper, the conga truce of 2015, and of course when I got my purple power hour heavy.

Good times.

[Ghostlier]

[QUOTE=geel9;52654060]My fondest memory of TF2 is honestly meeting the TF team. Or perhaps my Pyro poster signed by Gabe Newell.

Alternatively, it's when I realized that scrap.tf had overtaken TF2WH. That was a nice day.[/QUOTE]

the last time I actually used tf2wh was when I was making a Collector's Third Degree and for no reason whatsoever scrap.tf didn't have any

that same day I crashed one of the FirePowered unusual trade servers by accepting 200 Third Degrees and they didn't have the plugin to condense it to say "Third Degree (x200)"

that was a fun day

[kerpkek]

I really like this "favourite memory" thing, it felt really nice to read through all of your guys' best times with the game we all love.

As for mine, halloween is always great, 2015 in particular was a fun time. Playing deathrun and getting the activator onto the main course among other things while 5 people are blaring micspam was a great time too. But my #1 has to be my time in MVM. I've met so many awesome people. I have a tight-knit group of friends that I talk to every day, and we hope to eventually all meet someday. And I'm actually dating one of them now. I don't know where I'd be without this game.

Are you going?

probably not, but he does share an office space with them

I imagine he may know when things are happening with the tf team
