RainingMetal (Handed A Sword) Relationship Status: THIS CONCEPT OF 'WUV' CONFUSES AND INFURIATES US!

Anyhow, does anyone want to add each other so that we can do some Mv M together?

We did a while back, but it was hard to organize. Many times we weren't all able to join at the same time.

Why don't we try again? At the very least we can add each other and play with two or more members when we have the chance.

Well, I'm getting into the Tour of Duty mode, and meeting some competent players.

I... Have a theory. I call it the 'Team Scramble' theory.

RED and BLU are the same. It's just the nine Mercs getting paid to kill each other all day, during which they periodically swap between their RED and BLU outfits. That's why they love their job so much. They're getting paid to indulge their psychopathic desires in such a way that the fun never ends. They spend their workdays killing themselves and respawning, and periodically change the team line-ups to keep it interesting.

Remember, the smartest Son of Mann still could not conceive of a way to power his robots besides literally burning money, it's completely in keeping with the setting that the Administrator would think that the two teams would be completely separate even though they're made up of the same nine guys.

What about when there's multiple of the same class? On one team or opposing each other?

I love watching two Medics try to uberchain and I go out of my way to airblast them and ruin their fun.

In fact in general I really enjoy playing directly against Star wannabes because it's kind of tiring see a bunch of people trying to Market Gardener all the time, or play as really obnoxious spies in a corner, or in this case, try to uberchain.

It is particularly funny to do it...as soldier.

Once, I was even lucky enough to bounce a medic and he had such a propulsion I bounced him off into a hole in the ground, and his buddy just stood there and was soon rocketed to death.

Nahh. People see him doing cool stuff and want to imitate. Doesn't mean they're dicks.

Don't assuming everyone who tries stuff like this is imitating STAR_. Not like he invented chain ubers or using the Market Gardner.

[up][up]"x's fanbase sucks" is the most meaningless statement anyone ever makes.

But the whole "Ambassador Spy from across the map" / "Places no one should be" is something he did make pretty much on his own.

And there's no denying that when he releases a new video, there's a whole slew of imitators going around trying to mimic what he did. Often to a very lesser effect. I think people forget that it probably takes dozens of takes before he finds a game that allows him to do what he wants to do. At worst, this usually means that whichever team has a Star wannabe has one to two teammates not doing anything productive. Especially knowing when it is uberchain Medics, and they insist on only healing themselves.

[up] Funny how you say that, because last night I narrowed survived sprinting past an utterly terrifying nine-man Medic uber-chain if only for the luck of them busily prancing around laughing on their open mics to notice me before I slipped past them with the intel and scored.

So I finally got the Haunted Metal Scrap.

Not really sure what I should do with it. You can't craft the Voodoo Juju anymore...

I suppose. I have a couple of Unusual Scotsman's Skullcutters, would using one alter the result, or should I get a regular one for crafting?

It will not alter the result, hence, get a regular one.

Just use a regular Skullcutter. Using a Strange won't alter the results, and will just waste a Strange. The Headtaker is also always untradeable by default due to requiring untradeable Haunted Scrap to be made (I used all my untradeable scrap from achievement weapons to craft it, to put it to use, in fact).

I'd like to see a Headtaker Strangifier some time. We got a Frying Pan Strangifier, after all, so it's not as though they're opposed to giving special weapons the Strange treatment.

It's kind of irritating, but Halloween in the game officially begins somewhere around the beginning of the week of the 31st and lasts until late November.

But you can find servers running Halloween maps often as early as September.

Halloween is what got me to stop playing practice mode and start playing with real players.
