I just noticed this. Our server is almost full and it's not even 7 PM pst, which is unheard of. :shock:

Maybe it's time to appoint more admins?

One third of those players have 180 ping or higher. Getting lots of foreigners, not that I mind that in itself. Just hard to talk to people who may not speak english, and answer their questions when they ask them with broken english or in their own language. Not to mention it's annoying to play against someone with high ping. Run around a corner, 2 seconds later get hit by 10 minigun bullets from heavy you supposedly escaped from.

QFT



I haven't even tried to play since the semester ended and I've been home. Betting I'd end up with a 720 at best.

Also, for the first time in history, TF2 has more current players than both CS and CS:Source combined, almost double! Before F2P, TF2 was less than either CS.

I was there with swoop. Lots of noobs to kill, and a few I tried to help when they asked for it, but... it's funny to watch a sniper running around shooting with the SMG. TF2 is probably the only game where an SMG is one of the absolute weakest weapons in the game.

I will make an effort to be on HLSW more often so I can flex my admin powers during the weekends. Just get a hold of me and I'll kick/ban/burn/beacon/ and so on.
