OCR TF2: Stab stab stab!

[Secret Agent Man]

Here's some axe hax.

[Crowbar Man]

Yeah, QuickTime Alternative is good stuff. I think The KMPlayer is able to play QuickTime files natively even without Alternative, too.

Well, this is for the QT codec which is needed by TF2 to encode movies, not for playing QT movies per se.

As mentioned by XeroZohar, there are so many alternative codecs out there, I have no idea why they went with QT. Other than not inconvenience precious Apple customers, and inconvenience everybody else.

Man, been a while since I've been 'round these parts.

Anyway, for those of you who participated in the Heavy Juggling events not too long ago... I have compiled the footage as I said I would. If you would like to see my work, or just see what happened if you weren't around for it... you can find it here:

I have some other footage, such as my ghost riding during the Pac Man map and our other juggling game with the tons of Engineers and one Heavy/Medic pair per side. If there's interest, I can see about editing and uploading those as well.

Unfortunately, if you live in Germany, you probably won't be able to see it due to the song choice I went with. Sorry about that.

[XeroZohar]

Hey prize, that's some good stuff there. You should submit it for something.

Further proof that nobody ever plays 2fort seriously.

I would if it wasn't way too long, and using copyrighted music. I DO have a few videos I have entered for Saxxies, and there's one more I plan to try and enter after I finish editing it. Ones like that one, though, along with my "full version" of Fists of Shield... are really just for fun and the amusement of others.

Though, I HAVE entered one with me straight up goofing off and getting an Engy killed for it:

Hey Powerlord turn the RED server into a TF2ware-enabled server. It'd be a fun option to have on there since its an event server.

Just curious, are there any Spy videos where the Spy is doing well and the enemy team is competent? It seems like most Spy videos out there the enemy team is incapable of looking behind themselves as their team is wiped out single handedly by one spy.

I don't really like turning RED into a permanent event type of thing. More along the lines of using it separately.

I swore I linked to two videos I did when we first tried replays, back when they sporadically caused the server to lag.

Anyway, here they are... the good parts of two consecutive lives:

They aren't stellar (only 2 kills in one video and 4 in the other), but they don't suck either. Oh, and I killed both Frogg and his medic in each video.

Now, if only replays existed during the times I've gotten 12 kills in one life before...

What, my videos don't count? They're all from OCR except like 2 or 3 clips from my latest one.

There's a certain Dead Ringer Spy I've seen play on the server who pretty much always disguises as Scout, freely announces that he always disguises as Scout, has the entire opposing team completely paranoid and spy-checking...and still manages to mop the floor with them. It's a scary thing to see.

Moondoggy. I actually ran into him once way back when I was first starting out TF2, got stairstabbed. Seeing him on OCR was kind of a blast from the past. He's really good at trick stabs, which would explain how he does so well against paranoia.

Unrelated: Post count says I'm Chrono. Coming back from the dead is in character now.

I like Moondoggy. He's good at that one thing and once you counter it he can't do too much. He's good but he's used to easy stairstabs so you can bait him really easily. I just like to go Scout when he's around because he only uses the DR. He also hates the Shortstop.

Yay replays:

Hey Necro was I the pyro in your

. I'm not sure but I think I was.

Yes you were. It was really funny.

[DarkeSword]

Tried out the replay stuff this weekend.

[Lyrai]

My little experimentation with the replay function, taking out an otherwise useless sniper on the way to actually push leetle kart.

[XeroZohar]

So many new people to subscribe to, so little time.

Also, isn't Moondoggy the one with the knife named "It was the Scout"?

Also also, I have 64 views on my shenanigan video. HOW DID THAT HAPPEN.

Yep, that's him.

Well, I only meant so you could choose to nominate a tf2ware map when the map votes come up.

Won't work, as it's a server plugin in addition to maps.

It's interesting, the knife hints that he always disguises as Spy for the less attentive... so you'd figure people would catch on. However, despite his consistency, you always end up with people who ignore the slow-moving Scout and end up backstabbed because of it. Gets annoying when the people who do this are on your team.

Doesn't help that Moondoggy can refill his DR watch insanely fast, so you're stuck having to chase him down four or five times to ensure he stays dead. While that sort of dedication keeps him from causing more problems, it also serves as one heck of a distraction. Distraction Spies, of course, being something I can get behind - as you can probably tell from my "Uncle Bonehead" antics.

I was on a server that ran other server plugins like Zombie Fortress as well. When they went to a different mode TF2ware was turned off.

[ThndrShk2k]

Uploaded a few more videos, and re-uploaded the Solider one a few of you liked.

Didn't want to have duplicate videos so I lost Cinderwild's comment and some Thumbs Ups.

[Cinderwild]

Does anyone remember an old Sniper video where he would constantly say, "Owned." after every kill and get people really pissed off? I can't find it.

Surprise rocketsecks.

Just when I think I have things well in hand, SUDDENLY ENGIEOWNED

And just so this isn't completely pointless: I take it it's like finals time for a lot of people, since I haven't seen hardly anyone on our servers except pubbies for a few days now.
