Speaking of Texas Ten Gallon.
I recently got a mining light. I was elated at the fact that after who knows how long I played I finally got a hat for my favorite class. It isn't the texas ten gallon but it is still a hat. I relay this to my brother who only started playing the game seriously a couple weeks ago after it sat in his steam library for a couple of years. He told me he got a texas ten gallon.
I cant tell you how many times people have come up to me, "Junkie! I killed my room mate to get his hats but it didn't work!"
"Well did you eat his brain and wear his flesh like a bodysuit?"
"...no?"
"then get the fuck out of here before the cops show up you idiot"

"No mom you don't understand! The PA forums told me to do it, they're always right! I need these items that are for cosmetic purpose only in an online multiplayer PC game!"
So today I crafted my third and fourth camera beard into a Stainless Pot. And since, of course, I have the Soldier's Stash(which is cooler), means I've got an extra hat. And an extra beard.
Any rumors on when the hell trading will finally be in the game? Because its really, really tempting.

I found my first hat yesterday! DEMOMAN'S FRO
Is good except I am a crappy demoman and I crafted all his gear into mulch.

I heard my ass say that it's coming in the Engineer update.
Man, they've added a ton of crap to the game in the past two and a half years.
We started with only:
-3 Original Gamemodes: Control Point, Capture the Flag, Territory Control
-6 Original Maps: cp_granary, cp_gravelpit, cp_well, cp_dustbowl, ctf_2fort, tc_hydro
-17 Original Achievements: General
And now we also have
-3.5 new gamemodes (Payload/Payload race, Arena, King of the Hill)
-11 new Valve maps (cp_badlands, pl_goldrush, pl_badwater, arena_lumberyard, arena_ravine, plr_pipeline, arena_sawmill, arena_nucleus, koth_viaduct, cp_gorge, ctf_doublecross)
-11 Community Maps (cp_fastlane, ctf_turbine, cp_steel, arena_watchtower, cp_junction_final, cp_egypt_final, pl_hoodoo_final, arena_offblast, cp_yukon, koth_harvest_final, cp_freight)
-8 updated/modified maps (ctf_well, arena_well, arena_granary, arena_badlands, koth_nucleus, koth_sawmill, ctf_sawmill, koth_harvest_event)
-Holiday event with hats, achievements and a modified map with special characteristics
-War! Player Competition Event.
-285 new Achievements (36 Medic, 35 Pyro, 35 Heavy, 35 Scout, 34 Spy, 35 Sniper, 35 Soldier, 35 Demoman, 5 Halloween)
-New Achievement Reward System, Random Drop System, Backpack System and Crafting System.
-33 unlockable weapons spread amongst 8 classes (Including 25 Valve Made, 2 Promotional Reskins, and 6 Community Made)
-63 unlockable vanity items. (53 Random Drop (33 Valve, 20 Community), 6 Situational Awards, 2 Promotional Awards, 2 Holiday)
-16 crafting items
And all for just the cost of the original game. Completely nuts.
Sometimes I wonder how Valve decided what community maps to make official. I'm pretty sure most people will agree that Junction, Egypt and Hoodoo aren't very good maps. I don't think I've ever played Watchtower. At most I've run around on it on an empty server.
I don't understand why Valve don't make KotH versions of Ravine on Lumberyard. It would probably make some people play them more often.

And the original game was below the price of a normal new release if you bought it on its own. And the value was even higher if you bought it as part of the orange box.
I had it for the 360 as part of the Orange Box. Played a lot with my friends, but shortly after the Medic update I picked it up on Steam when it went on sale. It's hard to believe now that I ever used to play it on the 360. This game has given incredible value time and time again, it'll either be the best thing Valve ever did or completely overshadow all future releases (as we saw with L4D/L4D2). Either way I'm enjoying it more and more the longer it's been out, which is a pretty rare thing, especially for a game with no subscription fees to justify the updates.
So today I crafted my third and fourth camera beard into a Stainless Pot. And since, of course, I have the Soldier's Stash(which is cooler), means I've got an extra hat. And an extra beard.

I don't understand what's taking Valve so fucking long, it's not like setting up trading would take this long.

I bet they're trying to make it work with a currency system, and are having loads of problems with it.
Cmon, it's valve, sure it's gonna be hard to use on the get-go, untill they fix it in a later patch.
Also, I'm still waiting for thoses Meet the videos. It's been 3 years already, you have no excuse!
I want to see more gravelpit style 3 point A/D maps, and more koth maps. My two favorite game modes right there.
yesssss gpit style map would be amazing, been a while since they made a new one like that.
fishbus (made steel, freight) was working on one back in March, and since Valve by default buys everything he makes, I suppose that means one will show up eventually.
The changes to the Heavy have made it so the Shotgun Heavy is useless. You can spin up fast enough to get the quick kills, and spin down fast enough to still be mobile. I don't mind the cone tightening, but the spin up and spin down changes need to be nerfed at least halfway back to original.
Hey guys I am looking to join a good clan to play some serious matches. Only thing I can seem to find are public clans. I am pretty good and usually top medic on every pub server figure I might have a shot at something.
300 HP don't last long when a heavy is standing out in the open and has an entire team shooting at his fat ass.. especially if he was expecting to have a heal beam on him.
I wasn't saying anything particular about pro or pub clans, I was just reminiscing. Do we have any clans at the moment? I know Dev was trying to resurrect SotQ at one point, but then I think he shared my fate.
If you're just getting into srs matches, you might want to consider pick up games and such. There's a big ass guide for it in the OP.

well uh
it was nice playing with you?
texas ten gallon is salvation all hail texas ten gallon

I may or may not kill him.
you gain his hat-finding power
I cant tell you how many times people have come up to me, "Junkie! I killed my room mate to get his hats but it didn't work!"
"Well did you eat his brain and wear his flesh like a bodysuit?"
"...no?"
"then get the fuck out of here before the cops show up you idiot"
I mean, come on Valve, I don't need any more Soldier hats honestly.
Any rumors on when the hell trading will finally be in the game? Because its really, really tempting.
Is good except I am a crappy demoman and I crafted all his gear into mulch.
It's hard to convince myself that my modest pile of hat is all I want.
kpop appreciation station i also like to tweet some

is that drill hat actually in game
Yes. One of the updates from a few days ago added a bunch of hats and the shiv and axe.
so that's my mission. gotta get me one of those
I want to see more gravelpit style 3 point A/D maps, and more koth maps. My two favorite game modes right there.
( I still like payloads, though.)
make it happen

Joe's Stream.
Yeah, it's been almost three years. There are no other official maps with the control points laid out in the same was as Gravelpit.
Aim at their medics. Hearing the medic yelp in pain and run away to find a health pack amuses me every time.
Especially because it means the heavy is now standing there with no backup.
Joe's Stream.
ha ha ha good times.
Not saying pub clans are not good but I just don't see how I could ever break into a pro league or something by joining one.
