    I wouldn't mind some stiffer competition than the wet noodles that play in pubs :wink:

    Let's call it Thursday for at least this week. That will give a few more people a couple more days to see that we are planning a weekly scrum.

    Thursday 6 Pacific / 8 Central / 9 Eastern, Bring your contracts!

    I can'tish make due to group rides that last until 8pm. Everyone is aware that if you are doing this for contracts you have to use a Valve server?

    We could push it back 30 minutes if that helps @_k join us. The more the merrier. Still open to feedback on times.

    I am, at least, aware that it has to be a Valve server. I figure I'll start up a group chat, Prime and I can find a server that will accommodate the amount of interest at the time, join the server, and send out a signal to join on either of us.

    Contracts have become kind of an impulsive thing for me so no promises that I'll have it but I can stick around till 10 on Thursday so I'll be there for a while at least.

    Are we hopping on mumble for this since we won't have all talk?

    I'll mumble up but I tend to mute mumble while I TF2 due to conflicting or doubling chat. A Steam group chat would probably be ideal so we can send messages about map and server choices and also share our contracts if anyone needs environmental help for their contracts. I'm happy to go a certain class on the other team for ya, but you're going to have to earn the kills ;)

    Also @RahnalH102 , if you see me online this weekend, give me a shout. I'll help go pyro and protect your nest so you can get that 10 point contract.

    Thanks, I appreciate the thought, but I gave up and turned that contract in before I left yesterday. Entire time working on it and I only met the advanced criteria once during a humiliation round towards the beginning of Suijin.

    Yeah that game on powerhouse I did feel a little bad for sappin your shit.

    Lunchtime thought:

    Out of the 2 cases there are 30 different weapons. There are 5 different condition levels and Strange or not. 30 x 5 x 2 = 300 combinations available for opening from the cases. (ignoring unusuals for the thought here).

    Looking at the market, you can buy 136 of these combinations for less than $2.49. 33 of those are strange.

    Lesson re-proven; Unless you are opening cases for the gamble, buy a nice weapon from the market and save yourself the disappointment of opening a case.

    Further, waiting until closer to the end of the even will almost certainly result in paying less for those weps you have your eye on.

    So will next season have different skins?

  • BobbyDigiBobbyDigi ? R U #Hats ! TX Icrontian

    As far as I know;

    Currently, the 4 collections from the current Gun Mettle event are the only way to get skins (or decorated weapons as they are officially called) in TF2.

    There are no released details of future skins but I can't imagine Valve stopping this money train anytime soon so expect more events like Gun Mettle in the future. Possibly even them being included in regular crate series.

    For that powerhouse match it was mostly a pug scout and soldier that prevented me from doing anything really.

    It seems like every time I play on specific Gun Mettle servers, it lags terribly and is nearly unplayable. Is anyone else having this problem? I feel like I've tried pretty much everything!

    I've noticed my ping is double or sometimes triple on gun mettle servers.
    Edit: Today I've gotten a lot of "no servers meet your search criteria" when trying to join gun mettle servers.

  • BobbyDigiBobbyDigi ? R U #Hats ! TX Icrontian

    Interesting. Item prices did not crash last night. The cases are actually slightly higher in price (5-10 cents) compared to about 10 hours ago. Supply and demand on the cases may have leveled out.

    Rumors on the Internets say the 11th contract is out now.

    Play if you must. We'll still get together on Thursday even if just to dick around :D

    -Digi

  • I finally sold that minigun for $12, profit off this patch is now over $25. Woo. Have spent nearly half of it on keys because I like rolling the dice. I've probably spent $75ish opening crates in TF2 and I'm yet to get something rare except the pyro jumps in the pool taunt, but it is still fun for me because I like to gamble.

    I've sold a sniper rifle for $18 and a scout pistol for $12 and this is really getting ridiculous
