OK, I know I haven't really played any of the Wrath content... but who exactly is that human king guy? Last time I checked, the human King (of Stormwind) was the kid...

OK, a new 172MB 7zip file of the maps. You can get a free decompressor if you don't have one (WinRAR also decompresses 7zip).

The problem with that download was that they were all .bz2 files inside, and I'm not sure if you'd need to uncompress all of those as well. I'm creating a new 7zip file that should be smaller right now.

I just sent you a group invite... we'll see if that works.

Before I forget, I have a 172MB 7zip file of all of those for easy download. Also, fixed the typos in the maplist above and in the server maplist.

What Darkesword said, plus only the group owner can change permissions... which makes sense, otherwise the officers could just grant themselves permissions normally restricted to just the owner.

I tried to invite people from the old OCR group list, but it won't let me. It may be an anti-spam measure, making it so either: Only the owner can invite people not on their friends list. Members can't invite people not on your friends list for a certain amount of time after the group is formed.

Yes, I basically went through and deleted them all. Most of them were just the same thing over and over again. P.S. For some reason, my mail from the forums is being delayed, so my usual "reply within 3 minutes if I'm at my PC" isn't happening.

Species8472 is the only person who can adjust that. This whole incident started when I found out that anyone could post announcements on the group and stupidly told atmuh about it. I had just sent a message to Species8472 asking if (s)he could add a few more of us so we could post events and things, when I'd noticed I had a Post Announcements button.

I'm sorry, I apologize for that. Since this is bound to come up at some point in the future I'll short circuit it now. I screwed up. His posts were a grand olde joke. I'm sure he found it just as funny when I blocked all further communication from him.

It has about 100 new announcements from the last two or so hours.

We have a new Steam Group.

Don't bother until it's locked down, as anyone can delete them. Edit: We're abandoning the existing group and forming a new one.

So, yeah, it turns out that anyone can post anything to the OCRemix Steam group. I made the mistake of mentioning this to someone I probably shouldn't have.

So, atmuh pointed out an interesting server mod to me. Player All Talk/Team Talk Essentially it lets you bind a button to switch between alltalk and team talk. I'm tempted to install it and try it out.

I even said the other day "I'm the only damage dealer on my team? WTF?" in voice chat. (I was playing Soldier at the time)

Actually, there was one exception: When we had an entire team be spies. Was pretty funny.

I have yet to ever see 4 spies on one team. I don't even play as one if there's 2 or more (or 1 if it's a small team).

No, really, they don't. Just listen to voice chat/read text chat. You hear about it way more if there are bad medics. Then again, I get a lot of downtime to read/listen as a Spy.

I'm not sure if copying it works (can't see why it wouldn't...), but Steam does have a backup option. Only problem is that it's a bit on the slow side. Still, it also lets you create CD/DVD images of your Steam games, so you can burn them for later! Edit: I lolled at someone who swore because I managed to kill them as a Heavy when they were trying to circle-strafe me as a Scout.

The problem with starting out as Medic, Engineer, or Spy is that you should observe the inter-class dynamics first. The best way to do THAT is on the front line. I suppose you could play as Scout to observe that, but then you tend to be ahead of the main action... until you run into enemy sentry guns.

I suggest ignoring them and starting as one of the offensive classes (Soldier, Heavy, or Pyro). Unless you're really good at headshots, then I'd recommend Sniper. Once you get a feel for the game, then try the more unique classes.

Actually, that's what finally caused me to give up yesterday. >:/ As far as I know, it's lost packets.

I'm not sure why, but I was getting a lot of lost packets when I was on last night. So, even with a ping of 30 or so, the game was unplayable. You can tell if you're getting lost packets if you start rubber-banding or you can't change weapons (it instantly switches you back to the old one).

Here's the file list.
