    So the last few days I've been obsessed with getting Clearcutter (the 6 axe kills in a life pyro achievement). It is not going well. I don't want to do anything lame like do it on an achievement map though, or have people let me kill them. So given those conditions, what practical advice can anyone give about being an axe murderer?

    Wait till update euphoria dies down and servers go back to only 5-6 people at a time and you're forced to play melee-only? That's how I got the lumberjack one, anyhow.

    p.s - anyone getting on servers? I am home sick and bored out of my mind.

    I try to get achievements like that when the server is doing melee only. It doesn't feel as cheap or dumb as trying to get them in an achievement server, but it's not like it's being handed to you on a silver platter. I was so close to getting Clearcutter while the server was doing melee only, when some bastard shot me.

    Are you kidding? Heavy melee-fests are the worst possible conditions for trying to get pyro melee achievements.

    Actually Heavy anything-fests.

    yeah, but after a few rounds someone gets pissed (Wex majors) and starts playing not-heavy.

    Then people start getting irritated because some jackass (Wex majors) is running around not-heavy meleeing

    and other people start going not-heavy.

    Then it will be the prime of your clearcutting life.

    Did you say that you had 5 and then the entire server conspired to get you killed before number 6?

    I had five, then some bastard who was either dumb as bricks and didn't realize we were doing melee only, or some dick shot me (as well as others) while the rest of us were still doing melee only.

    Go to any random pub sever(be sure to disable voip), and just start ambushing people. That's how I got it.

    I had a good time being Medic last night on that payload map with the frenetic Engies desperately trying to hold the line. Shoulda taken a whole demo of that run, I didn't die for 15+ minutes but came close so many times. It wasn't a steamroll defense either, people on our side kept dropping like flies but those teleporters held up well.

    Next time I'll mic it up.

    Yep, that was some nice healing and a pretty good game. Their were several really nice games last night. I hadn't played Heavy in forever, its just as easy as I remember.

    Yessssss these were the days.

    Quick history fact: Did you guys know Enders' main used to be spy?

    It would literally be Zen, myself and Enders rolling with each other just backstabbing the whole enemy team.

    That shit used to be so much fun.

    That was like two years ago. Back then their were five PA servers and all of them were constant mic spam.

    I'd stop doing it if the web browser in their shift+tab overlay wasn't a steaming piece of shit. Not only is it IE, but it's an instance of IE that can't access the hard drive, which mean it saves no login information, and loads pages at a snail pace.

    The one time I tried noborder, I got a blue screen. By the time I restarted the server was full and I couldn't get back in. Thats been the only time I've bluescreened in a couple months. Could have been for a completely different reason, but I've gone through enough computer parts I'm not gonna push it.
