Are you running any type of UI mod? Have you tried deleting and redownloading (I mean delete even the backup files of TF)? Also, what video card are you using? Are the drivers up to date?

Nope not yet. I'd been pushing that until this weekend. I might go ahead and get it started.
that all-sniper team was among the finest moments of camaraderie I've experienced in TF2. I believe I was one of those 2 dead blue snipers in that screener...

Nothing like a groping group of gruesome goners or some cute cadaver camaraderie to warm a TF2er's heart...

I actually signed on to play last night...first time in a long time and I must say that Warpath is a fun map
I sucked before, but I must say that time off does not help. Here are a couple highlights of the evening.
I must say, I'm looking pretty darn good right here! That was a fun night, it had been a long time since I had swapped bullets with you Ryder.
Speaking of fun, last night's match on Gold Rush was AWESOME. One of the best TF2 games I've ever played. I had 6 people dominated at one point with an almost 20 point spread between my score and 2nd place.
Just one of those days, gotta enjoy them while you can.
A few moments in pictures.
Oh yeah, and I found this image of a repeat offender previously mentioned in this topic:
bah. I still don't have like any of these medic achievements cause I don't like going medic - but I feel that if I don't earn them I'll soon be obsolete...
Hope the fragging is good tonight. I see you're all playing on steam community. However, I'm in South Bend from the night with only my laptop. I've got to be up in 5 hours to help out for live coverage of the Blossomtime parade in St. Joe, MI tomorrow. WNDU-TV will be there live, and I'll be following camera ops and carrying their cabling. Should be a good time.

South Bend is the greatest city IN THE WORLD!!! because i live there
The reflections off of the Sniper scope sometimes show you different rooms then the one you are in. Example: As a red sniper, you see point A while in the spawn room in the third round.
Damage can be done through the doors during setup. I don't remember being able to do that on other levels. (please correct me if I am wrong)
I have noticed a few texture conflicts. Example: Blue team spawn in the first round, the rails going out the back doors of the spawn.
I also wonder everyones thoughts on the achievement building servers? Infinite uber? Where is the since of accomplishment in that?

Prime,
Euphemisms are against my religion.
Do you see a pattern here?
This was just some random player on our server, but I thought the name Shelly Girl on this mean lookin' engineer was funny
Hmmm...

Valve is a vampire
I was wondering why this thread hasn't been mobbed by effusive comments on the new achievements and such.
I remember pre-ordering the orange box and they were a day or so late and pretty much people's comments were this:
*sigh
lemme know if it gets released tomorrow, I should be on.
