The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Hello everyone, I did not see a TF2 forum so I decided to post this here. Please move it if you wish
I play regularly on JohnXP's and Job's servers, maybe you've seen me... my handle is cp#.evav
Anyways, we had a friendly match with the Control Point crew just the other day and it was a lot of fun. We have decided to challenge more communities from around the net
Is anyone from the PA crew interested in a friendly? It's 12 on 12 with classes capped at a max of 2 and we play 3 maps or so (rules are debatable). Date and time is of course still in the air, but we have a server (8.9.36.133:27015) along with your 2 so no worries about the location
I'll be checking this thread for your replies or you can post in our PC forum
He already directed attention here from the TF2 thread, so I think it would be better for discussion to continue here so we don't clutter up the main thread.
I'm sure many of us would be interested in forming a "dream team" of sorts. Hardest part would be scheduling since we all play from different time zones. I could play if needed, but I should be working on my thesis.
Anyway, this brings up a real complaint I have...why do tourny style rules *always* have class limits? If (hypothetically) all medics is a valid strategy, why not allow it?

Because the more rules you have the more you feel like you are running a legitimate tournament, rather than just a friendly organised get together.
As I said, the rules are debatable but I prefer some kind of class limit. Even in a pub I don't like seeing more than 3 of one class but that's just me personally. It's been bad lately with all the medic nonsense

cp#, What the hell is with this class limit crap? Do you not remember how much of an uproar we got in when Devilturnip mentioned class limits for our match against them?
There won't be class limits. EvAv does not approve of class limits. I don't know what's going on here, cp# seems to of had a moment of temporary insanity.
I'd be in, but best to think of me as acting in a reserve capacity.
Mostly because I know for a fact we can dig up 12 players way better than me. If the likes of Enders, Iowa, and tyrannus don't participate, they'll have me to answer to.
I'll whine and whine and whine and whine and whine and whine and whine
I mean it's all in good fun, but c'mon, this is the honour of the PA forums at stake! We don't have much left to spare!
If you need a medic I'm in. Someone who is organizing this just hit me up on Steam. I should probably start playing again to get the new medic acheivements.

This is one reason why it might be a good idea to keep the new unlocks off limits. A lot of people haven't had a chance to get them (or got them and had their achievements stripped) and I don't think they're quite properly balanced yet.

Profile -> Signature Settings -> Hide signatures always. Then you don't have to read this worthless text anymore.
I tried to ask you last night, and some are alternates, like littleboots and myself. Plus a few said they would join and didnt know if they could make it the day of. So... accept my invite damnit.

Also, the server will be completely default except for round/win/timelimits.

(Edit: 2 per class seems kinda low for a 12-man team)

That said we had a competitive PA group going for scrims and what not, I'm sure if we can get those together we'd be willing to take you on
Make the match vs EA a kind of World Series with the winning PA team playing them.
Or for those people in Europe, basically a kind of Lions thing.

you selected people without letting anyone who wasn't your perfect standard play
There are 2 of those people I don't even know
the fact of the matter is you ignored the people who took the initiative to actually look at this and showed interest
