Helping someone port over a Deltarune (chapter 1) map from Garry's Mod to tf2 has made me appreciate some of the game's music.

I haven't even played da game OR Undertale

Maybe it's a spoiler I have no idea

guess I should post my epic funny video from last tf2 birthday

I wanted to make a compilation of peoples' reactions, but it got too late in the day and most people didn't use voice. Will be better next time now that voice chat icons were fixed to show up above peoples' heads again.

We have entered the age of Iron Bomber contrarianism, where detractors insist that the Iron Bomber is worse than Stock despite statistics regularly supporting otherwise. They will blindly claim that people have been using the Iron Bomber for the past 6 years for its minutely larger hitbox which was not discovered until this very year, rather than it's more effective and more useful rollers. The detractor will exaggerate the increased range that Stock rollers get from their longer fuse time, while at the same time insisting that the decreased fuse time of the Iron Bomber makes no difference towards the roller's effectiveness. The detractor will also downplay ineffectiveness of Stock rollers which results from their bouncy and chaotic nature, and will avoid addressing said topic at all costs, even going so far as to insist that the -15% blast radius penalty of the Iron Bomber is crippling to the weapon's DPS. The detractor may even be so entrenched and deluded as to laud mediocre weapons like the Loch-n-Load or Loose Cannon as superior, solely to further his own position against the Iron Bomber. The detractor will go to any length to make himself and his choice feel superior.

i have a festive grenade launcher and it has halloween spells and I like the sounds and model more than the iron bomber

I meant to post this back when it happened, but thoughts on TF2 Classic and Open Fortress being temporarily shutdown? Maybe we'll see official versions of them.

I was very hopeful at first, and I still am. There's tons of misinformation out there so I'm just gonna be patient because of this primary source.

I'll give them both a shot if they hit steam. If anyone wishes to still download TF2C, it can be downloaded here https://gg.apple-shack.org/tf2c/

Didn't they automate the process a couple years back so it's on a fixed date each year? or was that Sissmas?

I think they did that for Halloween, but they still need to do an update to reset contracts maybe.

It also helps that it is extremely easy to do a halloween update from their point of view now: do minimal checking of a few halloween maps, add 15 cosmetics, reset the contracts, and you're good to go.

AFTER FIVE YEARS OF VIRTUAL YOUTUBERS, HOPEFULLY IT WAS WORTH THE WAIT:

 

 

This went surprisingly well. Have seen like 70% of it. No bots, people only having memes on conscentious objectors, whoever set up her account disabled voicechat.

I've been in the market for a new chair for my desk for months now. It is almost impossible to find one with:

1. A reasonable price

2. Soft-enough cushions to squish a bit when 145 lb Wicket sits in them.

3. Are tall enough that I can rest my head on their backs when sitting.

4. Don't super promote "good posture" and make leaning your butt forward in the seat super uncomfortable.

5. Have cushioned arms.

"Gamer" chairs always fail 2 and 4. Everyone 10 years ago in my friend group seemingly had a chair that fit these criteria. What happened?

Did an audit on the amount of entities each map in tf2 has. Unsurprisingly, the maps with the most entities are the halloween maps mostly. The limit for a server is 2048 entities and the map with the most is pl_bloodwater (badwater event) with 1586 without any players connected. Each player, cosmetic, and weapon is an entity so each player at least will count for 7 entities.

1586+(24*7)=1754 entities used up by players alone. Any player with a cosmetic item in their use slot (like a spellbook or duck) will add yet another entity, and certain classes take up more entities (engineers and spies alone can take up an extra 10 each with buildings and disguises). 2048-1754 gives us 294 entities to work with in a perfect scenario. This is a halloween map, which means everyone will have a spellbook equipped (minus 24, 270 entities to work with). Any spell such as pumpkin bombs, skeletons, or monoculi will add entities, can assume 40 would be in use by these at max at any given time. so we only have 230 entities to work with.

This means on the map with the most entities, that if the entire server went engineer and had every cosmetic slot filled AND built all 4 buildings that the server would crash.

Want less coordination? 13 demoman (max cosmetics) laying out 14 stickybombs with the Scottish Resistance, and shooting 4 pills each at the same time is enough to crash the server on their own (without any soldiers launching rockets, or other projectiles existing on the map).

What's that? Want even LESS coordination? How about this? If you can get 6 medics (max cosmetics) to go to an area with a high ceiling (badwater event last) and look straight up and unload their entire syringe gun magazine into the sky, then the server would crash from just your guys' contributions alone. You can queue into casual servers with 6 people.

Basically, what I'm saying is, the fabric of tf2 universe relies on the syringe guns not being popular, since it's the most amount of entities any one player can make on their own (without exploits).

My game regret is not buying Eternal Darkness for like $20 at a used game store when I bought The Twin Snakes at the same exact time.

full albums are cheating

real video of TheOnlyGuyEver

As someone who just graduated college and has been having a lot of introspection these last few days, it's been real weird. I've had quite the reliance on my SPUFriends to keep me sane. My family is about to go through a major change in 30 days, and I don't think literally any of us are prepared for it. The future is unclear for all of us in the Wicket clan, and that's the first time in ten years that that's been the case.

I'm so glad more and more nintendo games are getting co-op mods. Pikmin, Pikmin 2, Luigi's Mansion, Super Mario Galaxy, Sunghine...

Just completed a disasterous Pikmin 1 3-player run with my sister and her boyfriend. Between bugs, we managed to complete it in 11 days (and lose 30 more pikmin than those that survived).

Recently been in a mood of "I should really do those things i promised random people I would do" but I'd have to spend time and effort relearning how to do them. I remember promising a Payday: The Heist Speedrunning guide. Never really wanted to make video content that uses my voice, but I've been livestreaming my L4D2 games for like 2 years now so that doesn't really matter. Broke the ice for myself by uploading an Apex Legends exploit guide with my voice, so maybe I can finally do that Panic Room exploit video so there's more than just me in the world who knows how to do it/why it works.

Anime I watched in 2020:

Ishuzoku Reviewers
Psycho Pass: First Inspector
Konosuba Movie
All of Prisma Illya
Redline

Thunderbolt Fantasy S1

Things that actually released in 2020:
Psycho Pass: First Inspector
Ishuzoku Reviewers

Making a chart out of six things?

As usual, because I watch so little, I will instead just describe my thoughts on the few things I watched last year.

This year I intend to actually watch more stuff on my own. The only thing I watched by myself in that short list was Ishuzoku Reviewers. I'm honestly getting pretty peeved at this symmetrical glacial pace to watch stuff because both parties assume the other is at fault for us never watching shows together.
