Yep but you can't actually delete steam group so this will stay up however, there will be no more announcements/events scheduled here at all.
Ryan 25 Apr, 2012 @ 2:01am 
So is this group closing down?
Mr Squiggle 24 Apr, 2012 @ 11:17pm 
The Quickening has been re-named into ANZAK and now has a new page
Durzo 20 Apr, 2012 @ 2:08am 
Sorry if I seemed negative. I apologise. I guess I only talked about the bad since that is what needs improving.
Durzo 20 Apr, 2012 @ 2:07am 
All in all. We did well considering our star player was afk. We made some stupid mistakes, arcana did well. which resulted in arcana proving a solid match for us at one point. These are some of the things I noticed. I'd love to talk to you guys and watch the demos sometime.
Durzo 20 Apr, 2012 @ 2:05am 
One thing I noticed was with x being heavy. our core was very different. Since ryan is use to me being around I don't think he was ready for x's different heavy style. And as a result I saw x call for an uber and had no ryan behind him, a few times. I'm sure that'll be fixed with me coming back.

Ubers. I think ryan might want to say some things on that.

And last but not least. Communication. To quote patches O hullihand "you look like a bunch of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ trying to ♥♥♥♥ a door knob out there". To describe it in one word. Chaos. There was no structure at all. Several people we trying to make conflicting calls. There was a whole bunch of unnessecary noise and people talking. I know we've talked about this before, we need a strong caller, and little talk as possible. Only call out when med is down, sniper down, sniper location. core location. most of the rest is up to the caller. (im probably missing some).

Attack. Your super special plan on attack with the kritz only worked because you guys got lucky. Very lucky. I doubt it'd work a second time. Keep it simple.

Now to arcanas beautiful attack. Not sure if they planned it or was just pure luck. but it worked. What they did is they got their dead ringer spy, sniper, scout, demo, all on the cart and ran into the tunnel quickly. As soon as the cart was leaving the tunnel their ubered heavy and pyro came up top and charged in. With the wrangled sentry on the uber, the demo could simply spam up some stickies and BAM. Gone. very well done. we couldnt stop their momentum until the end. It was simple, and it worked.

Zorst you dominated. at one point you had 30 more points than ryan and was dominating 6 people. God I'm happy we have you.
Durzo 20 Apr, 2012 @ 1:53am 
On to gravel strategy. I found when we were on attack, the sentry at spawn thing didn't really do a lot for us. I'm sure if we could get it to work, it would work. But once we set it up and moved onto B. It just got destroyed easily by a respawning spy, heavy or demo. Perhaps if our push onto B was well planned it would help a lot, but I don't think our play style fits to that. I think we should keep it simple. But thats just me. I'll talk to you guys about it.
Gravel defence went well. I can't remember anything that made me cringe.

Badwater. Defence. Generally good at the start, but arcana were on another level. Arcana rolled us (i'll get to that soon). Now when we got the final point, everything just fell apart, it looked like a public match. No plan. No structure. Just a good old fashioned death match. We held them off with pure skill and not teamwork.
Durzo 20 Apr, 2012 @ 1:45am 
Hey guys, as most of you know, and were terribly heart broken to see. My ping was so fricken high I wasn't able to play. And so I took a back seat and watched the game lag about with my sad sad internet. And here are some things I noticed.

First off - gravel pit. right at the start. we charged out. captured A. Everyone was running to B, and left poor little ryan ALL by himself. And Of course a spy found him. I dont think the spy could believe his dumb luck. Decloaked and killed ryan with ease. It was PAINFUL to watch. Not a single person was around to protect him. no idea where you guys were. And so we lost an uber right off the bat.

I have to give a heads up to gunblade, zorst, shin. You guys played marvelously. Everyone else did well of course, but these guys shone. Just thought I'd say that.

Hi guys, watch the demos from last nights game against DuF. We need to work on or roll outs for viaduct, both stache and wilkor, DuF sort it out every time. But watch Gravel as well, they do a 6v6 method of leaving the med back at spawn on offence, and watch their ambush on the 2nd gravel pit dem, sol up top, stickies under ramp, spy C'n'D watching making the calls.
Mr Squiggle 5 Apr, 2012 @ 9:19pm

Mr Squiggle 2 Apr, 2012 @ 11:27pm

˙pants 31 Mar, 2012 @ 10:37pm

Mr Squiggle 22 Mar, 2012 @ 3:23pm

Mr Squiggle 15 Mar, 2012 @ 3:23pm 
Team is registered for the angry face competition: http://teamangryface.freeforums.org/the-angryface-cup-highlander-team-signup-t41.html Please note if you definitely wont be able to play in the comp as I can edit the team make-up
Ryan 14 Mar, 2012 @ 8:58pm 
Yea man im all for it, it should be cool. I know 1 scrap is alot to enter, so if anyone needs financial help i can supply them with 1 Scrap metal.
Durzo 13 Mar, 2012 @ 9:22pm 
I saw the gloves of running urgently were banned. then read on, and it said that the restrictions were going to be changed to UGC. And why aren't we registered yet? Is this the Aus tourney we are entereing?
Mr Squiggle 9 Mar, 2012 @ 1:07am 
Hey well done last night guys, good games on viaduct & coldfront
Durzo 7 Mar, 2012 @ 7:00pm 
Well this is just great. I come home from work and what do I see? Someone has organised a game tonight where there was non before. If I had know this a bit earlier I woudn't planned my mass binge drinking night tonight.

So I'm sorry to say guys I can't make it for once. You'll have to suffer without me. Just make sure you don't get a very good heavy as my replacement, I don't want you guys to realise I'm not actually that good and can be replaced.

Shindogo 13 Feb, 2012 @ 1:47pm 
Personally prefer something a bit brighter, like Australium Gold or Pink as Hell
Mr Squiggle 10 Feb, 2012 @ 4:40pm 
yeah i agree with reD. 2nd vote for Zeph
apac 10 Feb, 2012 @ 1:32pm 
Im keen for Zeph Green on any hat we want makes it abit more fun we can wear anything just a colour
Ryan 10 Feb, 2012 @ 12:40pm 
Thanks X-Man, ive got a lot to learn, just reading up on a TF2 comp site I found. Im new to Hats so just let me know what you guys go for, im happy with anything. I have had a few crashes lately, its not stable, try and pinpoint whats causing it
Mr Squiggle 10 Feb, 2012 @ 3:49am 
Good game against SS tonight, we took the honours in a close game of freight and then quite a bit more easily in badwater. Well played from everyone, a great game from the new medic too, Ryan (except for that game crash lol)
Mr Squiggle 9 Feb, 2012 @ 5:43pm 
Ok we're trying to decide on a team hat so, what do people think of the following options (you can leave a message here or we'll discuss it in mumble next Tuesday).
1. Zephaniah's Greed Green hats (darker green, any hat you like for your class)
2. Team Spirit any hat for your class
3. Bills hat in Zephaniah's greed, white or TS.
Only problem with Bills is that it is pricier but at least then the whole team will have the same hat and I reckon it's a cool looking hat.

We've decided against Modest Pile of Hats as both DM & myself aren't keen and I'm pretty sure we weren't the only ones from talking amongst you guys (Pants not included lol).
Mr Squiggle 9 Feb, 2012 @ 4:57pm 
So the team make-up is thus:
Heavy - Durzo
Medic - Ryan
Demo - Pants
Soldier - DM
Sniper - Pwnflakes
Engie - JimBob
Pyro - Shindogo
Spy - X-Man
Scout - *To confirm/find
