New [Steam] - New RAAAAAGE 10

[pffh]

Laydeez and Gennelmen, I now present to you:
Byrnbot is (Uber) SPY!

Oscars please.

I was so not expecting that and that facestab on me (the heavy) was horrible

[Penguinizer]

Anything I can get my hands on, probably wine, beer, or vegan white russians.

Wouldn't that just end up being straight up vodka.

[Rutskarn]

I'm not going to commit to anything, with my schedule as it is and my steam patchy as all-git-out, but here's my application anyway.

Team--Sober
Steam Name-- [ChHa] Rutskarn
Time-- Preferably a weekend, but not Saturday after 6:00 Pacific time.
Suggestions--Unlike our usual organized matches, I think we need alltalk for this one.
???--!!!
Profit!--Yeah, how much am I gonna get paid for this, anyway?

[Byrnbot08]

I was so not expecting that and that facestab on me (the heavy) was horrible

That was not a facestab. It was an eyestab. It is quite clear that facestabs are actually eyestabs. I can conclusively prove this.

First of all, I poked you in your rotund and characteristically Heavy stomach, and found it impervious to my knife. Your soft, yielding spine was behind you, so I went for the eyes. This resulted in my knife meeting your eye and poking your brain, causing you to have an aneurysm, thus provoking the headshot animation.

The game cannot process this amount of win/or fail and goes "HERP DERP", choosing to render this as a backstab of all things. I feel like I should petition Valve to include facestabs as a rare, but legitimate occurance in the game, because that would solve so many gripes.

I was, on account I was listening to them on the mic. But I would've got killed by the heavy behind them anyway.

Or they could find a way to fix the mechanic. You know, their job.

...Instead of screwing up game balance and making hat unlocks.

In fact, screw all that stuff. Just make some more Meet the ___ videos. And then get to work on a new game.

[Scuzzball]

I demand recordings of this on teh youtubes, as I will be at a birthday party.

[tarbrush]

I suppose there's no chance of moving the match forward to some time that's vaguely sane for the Euros amongst us? 3am whilst drunk is sleeping or clubbing time.

Sadly, with everyone else being in the US or Canada, I don't think it's that likely. 10-11 EST is a good starting point for such activities, so...

[mightymonarch]

WOW, response for this. If we can get one more sober team member, we can have 2 games of this going. I picked the teams by first come, first serve.

So far, for game OSI vs. Sphinx (In the format Forum name (Steam Name)).

Team OSI (Drunk)
mightymonarch (Dr. Girlfriend), Djinn_In_Tonic (The Djinn), Darth Mario ([ChHa] Darth Mario) and Sleverin (Sleverin).

Team Sphinx (sober)
Dispozition ([GitP] AWESOMECOP), Emlyn (:HIT: Emlyn), Worira (Worira) and Pie Guy (Qwazes (Pie Guy)[ChHa]).

For game Venture vs. The Monarch

Team Venture (Drunk)
Tarbrsuh ([GitP] Tarbrush), Northforce (Dash Rendar), Faulty (PLAYER NAME), and Scorpionica ([ChHa] Scorpionica)

Team Monarch (sober)
Byrnbot08 ([ChHa] Byrnbot08), Penguinizer (pengiunizer510), Rutskarn ( [ChHa] Rutskarn) and Mtg_player_zach (Mtg_player_zach)

NEW!!! Alts!

Drunk
None so far

Sober
Kyouhen (ɹɐsɐɥʇlɐq [ssnɔ])

The Vs or Realism Vs issue is still up in the air. I feel like it should be plain ol' Versus, so the sake of the drunk teams.

I will also record and can look into making a Mumble recording.

Also, lastly my weapon of choice will be a mix of sake and gin (just not together) and possibly some rum with maybe some Mike's to get me started at about 8. I plan on being plenty toasty for this.

Can we get an Steam group admin to make an event for this? Pretty please, with details on Mario's Livestream?

Yeah, super sorry. 8/9 for us is a bit early for us 'Mericans to start drinking.

Given my tendency to try to cr0wn witches? I'd say normal indeed. Possibly on our server.

Good taste!

As soon as I boot up the PC side of my machine again, I will. Unless, of course, I'm beaten to it.

[dentrag2]

Curses! I will not be able to show for the drunk-sober game.

I guess it's for the best.

OS X? Tomorrow! Now I can play TF2/L4D during class instead of taking notes!

[Djinn_in_Tonic]

WAIT WAIT WAIT BACKTRACK ONE MOMENT.

OS X TOMORROW?

[Darth Mario]

WAIT WAIT WAIT BACKTRACK ONE MOMENT.

OS X TOMORROW?

Oh hell yes. Now I have no reason ever to reboot into Windows and I don't need to bother removing the virus I caught about a week ago.

FORMAT AND REINSTALL

[Djinn_in_Tonic]

AWESOME.

[Faulty]

How big are the ****ing desks in your lecture halls?

[watsyurname529]

Just the regular Humanities Core Honors class. Most people are writing about novels and Lynch films and race riots and stuff.

And yes, I'm actually writing this paper. It's the single most significant paper of Freshman year, point-wise.

Wow, forgive me if didn't believe you when you actually said it the first time, and now I'm serious about wanting to see this paper in its entirety.

On to L4D2 Drunk vs. Sober, I'll just watch the videos when they come out - there better be videos! I'm sure we'll eventually try this again, either with L4D2 or TF2 at some point and I'll do it then.

And lastly but not least, you OS X people are weird. I needed one (semi) anti-mac comment*.

*Note: I'm not actually against Mac at all; just the fanboys that think the Apple symbol means their computer/OS is perfect and they are "hip" and "cool" to have a Mac.

That works out well! I'm not actually for Mac at all...it's just that I'm a Graphic Arts student, and the majority of the programs I use are either native only to Mac, or work best on a Mac. It was also the best computer + monitor deal for the money, and monitors are important to us artistic types. So not having to save and close my artwork to communicate with you guys is a good thing for me.

[drolkcal]

I will also record and can look into making a Mumble recording.

Use a program like Audacity to record "What U Hear" or your sound Mixer. Took me about 10 minutes to set up. It records my mic and anything I hear. I would do it for the drunk game but I will be away Saturday.

[Faulty]

I think Macs suck. That make you feel good wats?

And that's perfectly fine. I know that most graphic arts programs work best on a Mac (I've taken my own graphic design class and Photoshop is wonderful on Mac; hell just getting to use Photoshop CS3 without paying the $1,000 or so is awesome).

I think Macs suck. That make you feel good wats?

Not necessarily. I just don't like it when people believe that the Apple symbol means their computer is better than every one else's and that they believe what ever Apple says as fact.

[Kyouhen]

Wait, the sober team isn't full yet?

Team--Sober
Steam Name-- ɹɐsɐɥʇlɐq [ssnɔ]
Time-- Weekend, Saturday preferred, not late Sunday.
Suggestions--Alltalk is REQUIRED
???-- <- Need more of this plzthx
Profit!-- Mmmmm, profit.

[Emlyn]

Also Fraps or Livestream will record everything said in mumble, so I'll have a full recording as well.

I can help here. I have ethical problems with a company that sells rather average laptops for $1000, and markets them to a group that will never use them for anything more hardware intensive then browsing the web. Oh, and the marketing based on slandering windows machines gets irritating when it's parroted at you.

Sorry, was just recently shocked by the idea that a high school student who doesn't play games and has no processor/graphics intensive hobbies/classes could possibly spend that amount of money on a computer.

[mightymonarch]

How big are the ****ing desks in your lecture halls?

My laptop is a 3 year old 15" Macbook Pro. I am very suddenly glad I went with the MBP, since the graphics card isn't integrated.

Use a program like Audacity to record "What U Hear" or your sound Mixer. Took me about 10 minutes to set up. It records my mic and anything I hear. I would do it for the drunk game but I will be away Saturday.

Thanks. If I remember to start it Saturday, I will. How intensive of a program is it?

ETA: The Sober vs Drunk team post up just a bit has been edited to include everyone now. Check it out to see what team you're on!

[Pie Guy]

Wait, I'm not playing?

[mightymonarch]

Wait, I'm not playing?

sigh. I guess since you did say something before the team sign up, I should let you in. I was going purely off of the sign up with team, steam name and all that jazz. This is gonna push Kyouhen off the sober side into alt. territory, unless we get enough for a 3rd game.

ETA: Team post now edited to include the right people.

[Djinn_in_Tonic]

Oh...make sure everyone has a mic.

Everyone WILL need a mic.
