That was really fun I forgot how fun TF2 with cool people was


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - Robust Laser - 08-10-2014

I missed out because my internet spontaneously vanished when it was about to start and when it reappeared it was really unbearably slow for a while.


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - SeaWyrm - 08-10-2014

I almost might have shown up, but the server was full. :X
Be there tomorrow, though.


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - amosmyn - 08-10-2014

If the server is ever full please make sure to message someone playing so that we can try to find room for you! Dini and I were willing to change servers to get people in.

PS SeaWyrm, please remove your advertisement from the spreadsheet. It's not a podium for self promotion.


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - SeaWyrm - 08-10-2014

Oh, okay, sure.
That wasn't meant to be a serious thing. I was just screwing around.


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - Stovie - 08-10-2014

Bit tied up this weekend, sorry, I'll try and get in next weekend.

I know a good cheap place to get a fast server if you guys want one, and I think I still have a coupon. It was less than $12 a month iirc. I'd definitely help go in on one.

Steam server maintenance is the worst kind of maintenance and are you guys playing or is it postponed?


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - icanhasdonut - 08-10-2014

we're playing and dini is mean he keeps sappin my minis


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - yd12k - 08-10-2014

If you're gunslingering then I'd call you mean except I currently lack a proper mouse I'm going to do that too


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - Gnauga - 08-10-2014

ping a hassle. Maybe a timezone/geography column could help coordinate server-picking?


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - SeaWyrm - 08-10-2014

That one server had terrible ping for everyone.
Ping aside, I think we need to be more organized when switching servers.


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - amosmyn - 08-10-2014

We can't really be all that organized because not everyone checks into the Eagle-Time group chat while playing. The best we can do is find a server, test it (ping, gravity, etc), then invite others in. But since our party is so large it generally alerts the valve server recommendation service that it's a good server and voila, server is filled.
The only sure-fire way to get rid of server jumping hassles, ping and occupancy is to have a private server.
If you have a better solution, by all means. But until enough folks are willing to contribute enough cash towards a private server, tough luck.

Regarding hosting a server, Dini tells me he has friends who've hosted TF2 servers before. From what I hear he's going to ask them for "bang-for-buck" tips. Renewal will be on a monthly basis financed by direct donations to the server mod or hosting service so that we don't have to feel chummed out when we get tired of the server/tf2. As far as who the moderator will be, that responsibility will go to either the most generous party or an elected representative (or two?) (for example, I'd elect Mirdini because he's alright).

How does that sound?


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - SleepingOrange - 08-11-2014

Reasonable.


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - SeaWyrm - 08-11-2014

People were using the group chat? I hopped in, but there was nobody there but a sleeping Schazer, so I closed it after a bit.


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - Robust Laser - 08-11-2014

Yeah I didn't hop in the group chat because I saw only one person in there so obviously nobody else was using it.


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - amosmyn - 08-11-2014

Group chat's difficult enough to coordinate even when people are in it simply because you aren't alerted when people comment in it if you accidentally close the chat window. :I


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - amosmyn - 08-15-2014

Looks like this aint a thing this weekend.
Whelp! If anyone ever wants to call for another this is the thread to do it!


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - SeaWyrm - 08-16-2014

No?
I'll drop in if I see other people are playing after all.


RE: The Weekly Eagle-Time TF2 CongaScrims - yd12k - 08-16-2014
