Hi All!

What a turnout!

Earlier in the day, neo and bushku asked me why I set the server player limit to 12 .. " ... it saves resources, we'll never have that many on at once anyway..."

Famous last words, we hit 12 and additional players were rejected. Oops, sorry guys!

In a heated night of 6v6 team fortressing, some great team play came to the fore. At one point, my team (BLU, Goldrush) had 3 medics, each paired with either a Soldier or Heavy (nice work with the minigun kintoc) and this combination was used to devastating effect against the hapless REDs!!!

Microphones also helped with co-ordinated assaults - I got mine for $3 from MSY so no excuses!!!

We also have to welcome the addition of Lupco Trpeski (aka |[unl33t]|), welcome aboard and thanks for joining! You get a leave pass from scoring n00b of the round as it is your first week, next time its fair game!!!

A special mention has to go out to RaVeN - despite not finishing on top, he produced some team winning moves such as an awesome engie/shotgun defense of the cart just before the finish line, while I watched on from the ashes..., nice work RaVeN!


LOW's:
* all-talk & party mode killing our server 30min into gameplay :(
* having to leave :(

HIGH's:
* 6v6 teaming, big battles!
* microphones!!!


This Round's MVP: bashprompt
(still on top despite some fierce competition from neo and bushku! There's a bit more method into awarding MVP now, check the bottom of this email...)

This Round's n00b: killian
(bravery in placing offensive SG's when on BLU team is worthy of a courage medal, unfortunately bravery alone wasn't enough for you to avoid a Darwin award this time, sorry!)


Quote of the Round:

*DEAD*(TEAM) kintoc: my stickies didn't blow
THUDD: too much information


Cheers all and see you next week - server is running every Monday & Thursday night after work.


When: Every Monday from 8PM
When: Every Thursday 8PM
Where: Where ever there is a decent Internet connection
Server: SMIMELB, password is 'sun123'


Cheers,

Rabban
