    To everyone I hung out with at PAX. You are some of the most awesome nerds I have ever had the privilege of hanging out with. The TF2 dinner was fun and it was great hanging out with ebo, crash, ms. crash, bear, kakos and so many others. You guys made PAX really fun for me. I took over 1100 pictures this weekend, but I will start going through them tomorrow and uploading the good ones.

  • UEAKCrashUEAKCrash heh Registered User regular
    Fuck yeah man. We're just packing up and getting ready to head home tomorrow afternoon, and we'll be back Wed night, so we'll have to get some tuftoo going.

    But yes, this PAX was amazingly fun, it was awesome meeting the new people I hadn't met yet*, and hanging out with the people I did last year, again. Getting to play TF2 with the group (and playing stoneyridge), even for a short amount of time, was fucking awesome.

    You guys* are some cool nerds, I guess.

    *Except Bear

    How could I get that stuck in my head. It's unintelligible crap.

    I really wish non-valve servers would stop breaking the call vote button. Actually I wish they'd stop using a lot of mods that break the game, like ones the break autoscramble, or impose ridiculous class limits. I really don't understand why they feel the need to pile on worthless mods and horrible custom maps (which is to say, 99.9% of custom maps).

    This normally isn't a problem, but the official servers have been down for almost a week now. I like that people who play on non-valve servers are generally better at the game, but the mod problem makes it virtually unplayable.

    I would like to echo to above sentiments regarding the TF2 nerds making PAX a successful and enjoyable experience.

    A definite highlight is getting to punch Ebo in the arm right after he headshot my medic right at the beginning of the round before I was about to uber @BEAST! That will be a memory I'm going to cherish every time he does it again over the Internet. Just hanging out with the Crashes, Ebo, That_Guy, Kakos, Hey You, Pablo, and everyone was was definitely better than anything else I did at PAX itself.

    Next time I attend PAX I'll make sure to treat all of you, even Crash, to some crème brûlée.

    Also please make with the picture posting soon!

    I think the highlight of the TF2 meetup was crash suddenly realizing he didn't need to slap people in game, and that he could slap people in real life!

  • UEAKCrashUEAKCrash heh Registered User regular
    That part was good.


    Also hooray that was the thing I had to remember, Bear! Woo! I'm so not going to try typing that out on my phone.

    DX9 is still not retro yet. A game has to be 10 years old for me to consider it retro.

    -dxlevel 81. Released in 2001, also makes game look older. Couple with a performance config to make it look even worse.

    I really wanted to be there... but I had to live vicariously through HeyYou instead. I did see a few pics, and it looks like I really missed out - looks like you all had a grand ol' time there!

    I won't be missing the next one, that's fo' sho'.

    Just got hooked back onto tuftoo, installing the maps and then I will be happy to shoot y'all :)

    I ate the entire cake. At one point, I remember becoming aware of the oppressive fullness building inside of me, but I kept eating out of a combination of spite and stubbornness. No one could tell me not to eat an entire cake - not my mom, not Santa, not God - no one. I would eat cake whenever I damn well pleased. It was my cake and everyone else could go fuck themselves.

    Updated the Short Circuit

    -Fixed not incrementing the "How the Pests Was Gunned" achievement for destroyed stickies

    Fixed being able to place buildings in nobuild zones

    Added the ability to remove Strange parts via the Restore button in the backpack
    Added the ability to reset scores on Strange items via the Restore button in the backpack
    Crates now display their series number in the backpack view

    Fixed defense buffs reducing crush and telefrag damage
    Fixed a bug that would cause Medics to reduce the health of heal targets if the target had earned more health than their normally allowed max overheal
    The Cozy Camper’s description now correctly reflects the actual speed reduction while scoped and is now applied correctly when using the Huntsman (speed for the other rifles remains unchanged)

    Those pants look like they cover up a very large amount of an engineer's color.

    And it's paintable.

    God dammit, Valve.

  • xzzyxzzy Registered User regular
    That said, they'll go well with my spurs.

    I think color-wise it's fine, the red/blue parts of the engy are his shirt, the legs are a neutral slate.

  • UEAKCrashUEAKCrash heh Registered User regular
    Oh yeah, that's true.

    But I still don't look forward to neon pink engineer running around.

  • xzzyxzzy Registered User regular
    Also, you know what would be nice? If Hammer didn't go apeshit whenever Valve updates TF2.

  • PMAversPMAvers Registered User regular
    It's just the frill bits that's paint-able, apparently.

    And the alternate styles are either like a light tanish or a dark brown.

    Just FYI, no one on the server right now is actually a PA-er, as far as I can tell.

    Your experience may vary.

    And by vary I mean someone might be a total cock-shit.

  • Bear is DrivingBear is Driving Registered User regular
    Awww man I want those chaps but I already have too many awesome engy miscs. I need like 4 or 5 misc slots for the engineer I don't care if people are already qq my computer can't run tf2 because I want to be fabulous!
