Soldier.

Shootin air, and shootin feets.

A pity my spy didn't show up, it took like, 3 hours to find a replacement, and by then my sniper was gone, and blurgh.

Glad the enemy team also had a drop out, and we were both playing with spares.

The updates won't be regular, as we have to work around school and each others schedules as well as tris having to find time to edit the videos, but here's hoping for the future!
Related to this, if anyone wants to play/finish Borderlands 1, I haven't completed it yet.

I haven't either. We should get a group of 4 to do borderlands 1 and stream that as well. Why stream? Because having everyone watch you mess up playing video games is fun!

Sure, why not? I'll take the mantle of the Siren (again, because I'm good at it).

Is it just me, or is the definition of "indie" as far as the Humble Bundles go getting increasingly elastic? Torchlight was hardly an indie title...

Published by the developers. Lated purchased by Perfect World for a console release. Torchlight 2 is not indie, Torchlight on PC is.

I think more and more people are trying to bend the "Indie" tag or use it as part of their branding because it makes them seem "hip" or something? Just a random stab I suppose.

The website seems permanently down and I can't find it on steam.

There was a torrent going around...
EDIT: And it seems the official one is on TPB.
Personally, I'm going to wait until it shows up on steam.

I'm sure someone's got the files. If they make a torrent for it, I can seed.

I'm interested in these three weapons. Will 3 Refined suffice?

He said he's going by spreadsheet prices.

Rocket Jumper is 2 scrap (.22 Ref), Strange Shortstop is 2 Rec (.66 Ref), Strange Rainblower is 2-2.33 Ref (2 Ref, plus up to 1 Rec). Total is 2.88-3.22 Ref.

I'm trying to bulk buy tf2 crate keys, on my way to a Max Head, but it seems difficult to get keys at a decent price. All the trades I see are 2.66+.

Can anyone recommend a good trading site or server where 2 keys for 5 is possible?
