PUG THIS WEEKEND

You did not make a calendar event of this. Edit your topic and scroll down to set date and time.

Nico, i found out that you need to have a specific event right in order to make calendar events so i gave that right to the game admins group. Other people can't make calendar events. I can't promise i'll be there, not yet. Sunday is the best day for me.

I PROMISE I will be there this time.

I had...something *important* come up..

I can do it, as far as I know. I WANT TO BE ON RED THIS TIME!!!1!!

I should be able to make it... assume I'll be there unless I re-post with news to the contrary.

I'll be there!

Panda, what do you think about throwing another pug upcoming thursday? The more pugs the better otherwise B3 will kick our ass!

Just a heads-up... expect me to be playing below average tonight — I picked today to get my sleep schedule back on track, so I won't have gotten any sleep for ≈30 hours by the time the pug rolls around.

Scratch that, I'll just go to bed now and fix my schedule tomorrow instead.

If I can get clear dates and if I'm not around someone can take charge then yes more pugs the better

I've been voted in so I'll just say that weekends are when I work (fri, sat) until 10pm EST. However, I can definitely do thursday for future reference.

If it's not too late, I would like to join (saw the link on the steam group).

count me in for a hour , max 1 1/2 hour .. (-1 CET )

I'll come and join, as well.

We are thinking about stockmaps only because we have enough orange experience lol

Turbine
Dustbowl

1. Which team is which?
2. I vote Turbine!

OK yesterday we had the pug! What does everyone has to say about it?

For me the following:

1.Next time we really have to decide whichs maps we are going to do beforehand. That way we can take some time to practise those maps. I noticed that depending on the map you can plan a tactic like what classes will be in your team and who will do what. This all was very chaotic. Also i think a lot of us including me are used to playing on Orange so maybe we need to practise stock maps more...

2.A lot of people were late/absent. Next time i suggest every team has a captain and this captain will contact all team members at least 30 minutes before the pug. That way if people don't show up the captain can look for a replacement. I also suggest that the teams (like we did this time) are defined beforehand who is in them and just go in the team your captain is in when you join the server, so we don't have to go in spectate mode and pick teams.

3.When we do a pug i expect people to be serious and not trolling/griefing. If you don't like stockmaps then you should not be in the pug because this a preparation for a scrim battle with another clan and we are practising FTW!! So not playing seriously means you are not abiding one of the basic PULP rules: be a teamplayer. If you want to spectate, thats fine, next time we will have a SourceTV link so everyone won't wants to can specatate and we can even record the whole match.

4.The whole picking teams part was very messy. Also one of the admins enabled Matchmod mode which set sv_pure to 2 which is why Firestar didn't have any skins. Me and Jameless are looking how to perfect Matchmod for the next pug. This is a plugin that changes game parameters so it's the same as serious competative league games. For instance there is a readyup mode that allows all players to say if they are ready or not to start the game and set the name of their team, only if there is a certain minimum of ready players the game will start. There will also be a halftime where players can put their heads together and discuss tactics.

Edit: because of SevenEleven and DrManette not showing up we had Wtfisabullet and Nuse the satisfier as replacement players.

I'm sorry about last night, to you Eraser, and Firestar too. I wasn't watching the clock, and got caught up.

Firestar, I know I got pissed at you last night, but you really shouldn't have started it. But, you're a cool guy. I'd really like to keep being friends, and keep playing together on the server.

Sorry.

It wasn't really a big deal.. Everyone kept telling me to either delete my skins which I had spent hours finding and dling, or "turn them off" which I didn't know how to do. I'm sorry too, for being an ass about it.

As we all know I had a friend over so I couldn't make it, but next time I will be there. Okay, I could make it but that would mean that I would had to ignore my friend which isn't very nice.

As for turning skins off, I don't think it is possible unless you move the folders Materials, Models an Sounds away from the "steam\steamapps\username\team fortress 2\tf" directory. Just cut and paste it to a different folder and restart TF2.

Moving the TF folder is faster, easier, and more complete.

Yeah, I know, that's what I did.

Please find a solution and test it next time firestar. When you play on league servers they will not allow skins so when someone executed matchmod config this disabled the skins. Let get back on topic and find out what others think of the pug we had. Panda, when will be the next one?

Also i think that other pugs should be on weekdays or maybe sunday morning instead of saturday night. After the pug we didn't have as much players as usual. We could also setup another server with 12 user limit. If we make it a private server (not public) it will only be $9.48 per month and we can throw in Teamspeak for $2.50. Me and Jameless can further use this server for testing new plugins and stuff.

Good idea, Eraser, cause I CAN play mon-thur at night and most sunday nights (unless I happen to cover someone else's hours, which is rarely). Having a seperate server is also a good plan. Keeps the riff raff out when pugs are happening.
