some folks don't like uploading their stuff to youtube for a variety of reasons.
Two top reasons:
1. Youtube fucks up the quality of the source video. It ends up coming out worse than WMV.
2. Youtube commentators are dumber than a bag of bricks.

Sorry I haven't been on recently. I'm in the process of moving, and I know I won't have internet until tomorrow at the earliest, but I still have to move/set up my computer. I MISS YOU ALL LIKE I MISS MY WEIGHTED COMPANION CUBE!!
But Valve was selling companion cube plushies, so if you were paying attention you should never have to miss your cube.

Very little usage here. I'd say maybe a couple of hours per month on average. I'm still predominantly a PC gamer.

You need a TV tuner card. Problem is, you need a TV tuner card that doesn't act as a PVR, and those are rare these days. Those that do act as a PVR will tend to have a 1-2 second delay between what is recorded and what you see, which obviously makes gaming impossible.

In case anyone was wondering, I was going to return to the TF2 server, but then Mass Effect (for the PC) arrived on my doorstep.
Needless to say, I've effectively fallen off the face of the Earth for the past week. Even my clan was wondering wtf happened to me.

....
maybe it was too much to assume i already noticed that too. Thats why i'm confused, because they look EXACTLY the same. Since when do different manufacturers make the same exact motherboard? I know they can use the same chipset but everything else too?
Happens with graphics cards too. They're called "reference designs" and sometimes manufacturers have very little reason to alter them.

Belkin
There's your problem.

It's looking like my desktop is too big for any of my luggages, so that's why it'll probably be my last night for a while.
Ship it to yourself.
Also, I'm coming back (to the server) next week. This weekend is reserved for watching seasons 1-3 of House.

It's really just ripping to WAV and then converting to your filetype of choice. The graphic is MP3 because it's assumed that the vast majority of EAC users are going to rip to MP3.

That and for some of us it's finals week.

YES! Orange_X! Had that map in a scrim once and although it fries your eyes, it's damn fun.
-
By the way, all that medic achievement whoring bumped me back up to #1, despite my not having played in the last four days.

Might as well learn at least one map inside and out I guess. Can anyone recommend a good class for a complete beginner?
Soldier. If you've played pretty much any first person shooter, the soldier is the easiest to get used to.
Heavies are also a good beginner class, and you're pretty much guaranteed to have a medic healing you most of the time. Pyro's also good provided you learn to take cover often, as it's far more useful as an ambushing class than a front-line combat class.

This is Firefox 2, right?
Firefox 2 has some pretty nasty memory leak issues, most of which are fixed in Firefox 3, but that isn't due to go official for another... *checks* month or so.

Well ideally, those of us from OCR read this topic, know about both the server and the cost for a reserved slot, and are donating both for the reserved slot and to help Bahamut make the monthly server payments. Otherwise, there's no difference between someone from OCR and just another random pubber. Heck, it stands to reason that random pubbers could donate and get a reserved slot.
I vote for turning maxvisible off.

I left early 'cause my team had our first scrim. As you can imagine...it went terribly.
It's just a scrim. It doesn't count for anything.
Whenever your team gets its act reasonably together, you might want to consider the TWL 7v7 limited ladder, for starters. Lots of competition from the teams still interested in it, and it's one of the few ladders left that has crits turned on.

[HOMER:] WHY YOU LITTLE-!! *strangle*
It's up to 3.33 now.
Gosh I'm such a stats whore.
-
I'm looking at YOU, Pyrion, with your two kills for every one death.
Last I checked it was up to three!

A decal is a picture/spray that can be used. I haven't really gotten into it much with TF2, but I guess you can chose a picture that'll show up in certain places on the maps?
Yeah, easiest way to go about this is to get VTFEdit (I'll take "How to use Google" for $200, Alex) and import the images in that way. The importation method in TF2 itself has never worked for anything but VTF's.
-
Btw people, care for another night of tf2 tonight at 8 EST again?
8EST? Ugh. Why is everything important at that particular time?
Can't be on for that, STA match tonight around then.
-
... for the record, I officially hate chains of 4+ Medics complete with Demomen, and because of the unlockables, I see that way too much.
It's a Soldier's dream. Prior to this, getting anybody to play Medic was a chore.
-
Just to get the context right, I recommended them cuz that's the clan I'm in.
Never mind the cheesy name, it's cheaper than gameservers (they want ~$1.48/slot every month), and the current rate isn't $1.50/slot (that's old), it's $1.25/slot every two months.
EDIT: Agreed on keeping it public.
-
So, is this "team" just around for pubbing/pickup groups or are you guys seriously considering joining a ladder or league?
Cuz that'd be hilarious, if a bit of a pain to organize, as some of us are already in clans.
Finding me on Steam isn't that hard; AFAIK, I'm the only "Pyrion". But I rarely pub anymore, as my clan has a scrim or match every evening it seems.

Newegg reviewers are idiots, only a few steps up from youtube commenters.
Depends on the product. If you see any from "Pyrion," that guy knows wtf he's talking about.
Laptop or PC?

Even with that kind of hardware it'd be a ripoff. 2GB of RAM is nothing these days.
Course, this is coming from the guy who has 8GB in his rig.
