  1. I'll schedule the event in the Steam group, then.

    EDIT: Because of the time differences involved, that's 8:30 PM on Saturday the 21st, right?

    That sounds correct. The link on the page gives the current CET time.

    I looked through the rules and we can change the time from default if we can get both teams to agree.

    1.3 Separate schedule & match deadline for every match – Default Date for unscheduled matches

    Every match has its own schedule and match deadline. All deadlines can be found on our [Calendar] or at the [Events] subpage.

    If a match is not arranged by the schedule deadline, admins will decide a default match date. After that, a match date can only be changed if both teams agree on another date or if one team takes a wildcard.

  2. I just posted an announcement on the Team Overclocked Remix Steam Community thing so we can set up some available times. I am lucky enough to have Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings available this week.

    To note, yes this team is from Brazil. I attempted to log onto a server one of the team leaders was playing on. I pinged in at 200-300 with several disconnects. The man in question (Ota) top fragged which means that we are at least going up against pub stars.

    Final note: Thanks Powerlord for setting up the server.

  3. Totally boughted Amnesia.

    It is a fantastic game. I loved it. They took all the good from Penumbra and made it better in Amnesia. Frictional has gotten the fear thing down pretty well. They also recently released the software development kit for the game. This means that we will soon be seeing custom stories on the Amnesia engine. I suggest playing through the game twice because you miss some things the first time around.

  4. Not that anyone cares, but I just got TF2, so I'd be up for playing with OCR in the future, if you'd like.

    Jump on the server anytime. The regulars are friendly and will gladly assist you and answer questions. Try all the classes and find what you like.

    That's the thing I don't get about the Saharan Spy weapon set. The L'etranger and Eternal Reward don't really seem like they would mesh well together, but you have to use them together for the set bonus.

    I think that the synergy is made to come from using the set with the Dead Ringer. The Letranger allows you to take pot shots while refilling your cloak while the set bonus allows you to decloak anywhere. This allows you to get a new disguise every time you decloak. I think that the basic idea would be.

    1. Feign death
    2. Get backstab
    3. Shoot enemy that notices you
    4. Feign death again.

    The Letranger goes great on its own actually. If you decloak early it only takes 2 shots to get a full cloak due to recharge and remaining cloak.

  5. Frogg has generously relieved me of my spare Eternal Reward in order to craft me a Familiar Fez. You can thank or rage at him, whichever you prefer, later.

    He's a good amphibian. I will miss not being able to pinpoint your exact location from halfway across the map because of the decloak sound. The fun part is that you are going to have to use your gun more than you prefer. I'm calling this now, once Polycount items are no longer banned in competition the Saharan Spy set will become widely used with the cloak and dagger. They will force a Pyro into play just to clean an area of back-caps.

    So, who here likes Natascha ?

    It's a good weapon for harassing (bad) Scouts, Medics, and Pyros. You will notice the lack of firepower against any of the heavier classes though. It works well as a tagging weapon meaning you slow them down, your team finishes them off. It works well in tandem with a Soldier any high DPS class. Also, not my opinion, it is probably the most annoying weapon to play against.

  6. Frogg: 94,659 34d 21:05:13h = 113.09 PPH

    Scythe: 55,560 7d 16:01:22h = 301.95 PPH

    Necro: 51,708 28d 15:22:35h = 75.15 PPH

    Me: 50,445 13d 18:57:03h = 152.40 PPH

    Miyako: 48,507 21d 05:35:41h = 96.24 PPH

    Neet: 31,614 2d 20:40:29h = 464.91 PPH

    By the way, these stats have nothing to do with skill.. they're pretty arbitrary as to how they decide what is worth what. Also my numbers are rounded a little so the PPH is not 100% accurate, I'll leave the stats for Fireslash.

    Exactly. Hlstatsx doesn't give Medics the proper amount of points based on their usefulness and that data is skewed in the direction of who gets the most kills. Heavy naturally gets the most kills and always has, thus Frogg has double the score of the next rank. The points are a very weak link to skill and should not be seen as viable data on player skill.

  7. Double posting but I want this to get bumped so people notice.

    Team 1: Our next match is shaping up to be on Friday, October 8 at 9:30 or 10:00 PM EST. Any complaints?

    That date will be good for me, I have that day off. Has UGLY agreed upon any dates?

  8. Thanks, atmuh, for making us feel like retards. If you have the time to comment, could you perhaps make it a useful comment?

    EDIT: Ok, so the FAQ seems to say that the team captain has to invite people to the group. Could I get one of those?

    I believe that Brushfire will have to invite you to the team since he is the team leader for the OCR Team2.

  9. I think you are all neglecting the best cloak in the game, the revolver. The revolver is the only cloak that can kill enemies just by pointing at them. Unfortunately, due to a coding error on Valve's part the revolver cloak is used with Mouse1 instead of Mouse2. But the revolver lasts longer than all the other cloaks and can recharge with ammo as well, easily making it the best cloak.

  10. FYI, starting tomorrow I'll be back home for 2-3 weeks, away from these bitchin' school computers (seriously, 5 mb/s rocks) and stuck with my ailing laptop and the family desktop. I may or may not appear on the server during that time. Depends on whether I can get one or the other computer to play nice.

    I'll still be on the interwebs though.

    You should try a high FPS config. I stumbled upon this one which actually looks pretty good for a config.

    And screenshots.

  11. I'll stop being picky as soon as cp_dustbowl isn't played over 3 times more than any other map.

    I don't think I would mind Dustrush if it didn't have some large flaws. It is a small map which gives power to explosive classes and those with area denial. (Engineer, Demoman, Soldier) The maps tend to last a long period of time which tends to become a competition of suppressive firepower. The map also cancels out the usefulness of certain classes. (Scout, Offensive Pyro, Endgame Spy) When you include the fact that you will always need a Medic to play this map it just feels very routine. It seems like the game boils down to who has the best Uber or the most Ubers.

    Actually, the best way to play Dustbowl offense is as follows.

    3 Medics

    3 Soldiers

    2 Demomen

    2 Heavies

    1 Engineer

    1 Utility

    The Ubers cascade which basically results in a brute force attack on a TF2 scale.

  12. KAC is awesome.

    http://www.ocrtf2.com/bans/index.php?p=banlist&advSearch=STEAM_0:0:27355855&advType=steamid&Submit

    For those of you not famliar with JIRX, he has a few youtube videos....

    etc

    Looks like he tried to pop in around 4am, so I doubt any admins were on.

    Actually that's not the first time that he tried to log on. He was actually banned earlier by the console while the server was full on Tuesday due to consistency violations. Chili was on at the time so I warned him when I noticed that he was logging on. As Atmuh pointed out, he uses a Source Mod exploit to change the timescale and speed hack.

    Does KAC ban anyone that doesn't have the correct files that sv_pure checks?

  13. I seriously have no idea why it would take that long. Neither does anyone else out of the 5 or so people that actually use the lab over the summer. We were told outright that the wax takes an hour to dry.

    This is probably a really bad place to mention that I suspect most of the time is going to be spent stripping the floor.

    Stripping the floor? That's two strange innuendos out of you this week. If I spent five days waxing my floor I would chafe.

    Also, nice picture Miyako. How did you manage to string me up like a marionette?

  14. Because they're going to be waxing the floor in the computer lab where I play. Of all the reasons...

    That is the weirdest innuendo I have ever heard.

    Which is why it should have been the way the weapon works from the start. Now, instead, Demoman have the most powerful and effective weapon in the game, turning what was supposed to be a long range, area denial class into Super Soldier the Revenge.

    Yes, I do still believe Demomen are overpowered.

    Actually the Demo was made to be the most versatile class from the commentary. Looking at the achievements we can see that there are varied purposes among the Demo. It's not so much that the Demo is OP but that he has a very high degree of usefulness in the hands of a good player. This only increases on tight maps like Goldrush where there is effectively only one front.

    One person said that deleting the Team Fortress 2 folder and letting the game rebuild it was a way to fix the glowing cart issue.
