It's been almost 2 months since our last update here! Ah bollocks.

Y'know what? With the Robotic Boogaloo update I think we are due for meetings.

31 May - 1 June (Fri / Sat) it is, then. Can't quite do next week since Gpop and I will be at conventions. Might be able to do impromptu meetings this weekend, however

Friday meeting: So-so and usual, save for the gimmick (Deathrun starring Koishi) being played prematurely - yay low player counts - and some contentious barrages between a few members which scared at least one player away for the day.

Saturday's went better, mainly MVM at first followed by silly idea brainstorming for next meet's gimmicks, along with micspams and comical duels.

Getting requested to have a "Saxton Hale Vs. Machine" semi-mode, which I approve of. Will be setting up something along those lines.

Kyo Tanaka · « **Reply #631 on:** June 03, 2013, 06:43:11 PM »

How will Saxton Hale vs Machine work? All players are bots while trying to win like normally?

DX7.EP · « **Reply #632 on:** June 03, 2013, 06:47:37 PM »

The way I see it working is that <=9 players are on BLU doing what bots do. On the other hand, 1 player is Saxton Hale and will get not only a model switch, but some OP weapons to simulate VSH/FF2 Hale. Said user will get a bit of cash as well, in order to facilitate upgraded stats, canteens, or quicker respawns.

Whether Hale completes the wave successfully or not, one person on BLU gets to become Hale, old Hale joins the bots and has weps and model reset, and the process repeats again.

So do you think we would be joined with normal bots or would it just be players vs Hale? (if it had normal bots, the Hale's weps better be pretty darn powerful :V) We should have tanks too, but probably low health since killing real players is significantly harder than killing bots, which wastes more time not killing the tank.

DX7.EP · « **Reply #634 on:** June 03, 2013, 07:12:58 PM »

Yeah, normal bots too.

Chances are modified popfiles will be run which greatly reduce tank HP and maybe bot counts.

Dr.Strafe · « **Reply #635 on:** June 03, 2013, 07:19:43 PM »

Pfft. Hale should have the ability to reset the tank. Or at least be able to throw it at the bots or something. :V

Agent of the BSoD · « **Reply #636 on:** June 03, 2013, 07:23:13 PM »

OK, that seems quite reasonable. Looking forward to this. (and some more music spammig by yours truly :V)

Or spawn a train that counters tank.

Apparently we didn't have any formal gatherings in a bit. I blame being abroad ~~and Gpop for failing to schedule one~~.

So let's put it at 16-17 August, this weekend, same 20:00 UTC-4 / 8:00pm EST time as usual. No idea about ideas, but this is possible.

Tried making custom MVM waves earlier too, and got this comical result.

Gpop · « **Reply #640 on:** August 13, 2013, 01:32:20 AM »

sorry, I've been really busy the last couple of months, I haven't even touched TF2 in a while.

I won't be able to come at all though due to work and prior plans to help out a friend move into a new house and all.

Yukarin · « **Reply #641 on:** August 13, 2013, 01:34:14 AM »

I'll try to come over. It's been so long since I played with you guys.

Agent of the BSoD · « **Reply #642 on:** August 13, 2013, 10:01:54 PM »

I'll be there, probably with more music spam like last time. (which ended up being pretty good, just excuse the random volume changes, my sound card is retarded)

KLH · « **Reply #643 on:** August 14, 2013, 04:21:47 AM »

We all will get to see how badly I suck (even more than before), thanks to delays with my main computer.

You're not the only one with micspam capability :V

...and I have a pro micspam system huehuehue

Iryan · « **Reply #644 on:** August 14, 2013, 10:38:53 AM »

So I just played for the first time in half a year just now. I -might- jump in on that weekend, if I don't get too tired before the time has come. If I do, I hope there won't be any download problems though... :X

(oh and I still haven't checked out MvM go me)

Messiah · « **Reply #645 on:** August 14, 2013, 05:19:22 PM »

You have my hat. Just invite me when time comes, because I tend to forget about it :V

Freyband · « **Reply #646 on:** August 14, 2013, 07:46:23 PM »

Looks like I won't be able to attend this one at all since I just got called and told that I'm working 3-11:30 pm both days :ohdear: . Hope you guys have fun though! :3 (try not to get blood on Gpop's suit)

Gc · « **Reply #647 on:** August 14, 2013, 07:51:22 PM »

Reporting for duty.

Might be able to get a friend in there...

don't worry, I won't be there for the meet so someone else will have to clean up all the blood instead

yuyukos · « **Reply #650 on:** August 14, 2013, 11:25:41 PM »

I'll try to stop by Friday night.

Gpop · « **Reply #651 on:** August 14, 2013, 11:28:09 PM »

If you guys are still playing after 10:30pm on Friday though I'll try to stop by for the last few games or however much longer you guys will play :V

Saturday all depends on when the moving ends and if I can play some at my friend's new place.

DX7.EP · « **Reply #652 on:** August 17, 2013, 01:09:13 AM »

First meet ended...and all we did (as we had 5 maximum players) was play some 2v2 Ultiduo and then tiny TF2 hijinks on Junction. Quieter turnout than I was expecting.

Perhaps the next formal meeting could be scheduled by other players instead?

EDIT: Alpha's comment on player turnout might have some credence:

anti-fun police: MVM!
anti-fun police: 9-10 people
anti-fun police: Stock and fun!
anti-fun police: 4 people
....
EP Sweetened Papayas: Yeah, MVM opens a whole another crowd of potential players.

Why haven't I found this thread sooner?!

Edit: My first day on this server, and I find a hat. Lucky me!

*Comes carting in on Orin's Wheelbarrow.*

So... October next month. You know what that means... the time of spookiness is at hand! Just wondering if people would want to gather at our beautiful server for some shenanigans at some point~
Cirno Day is upon us too; but that might be a little too late to plan out~ :V

In short, yeah... TEAM SPOOKINESS ANYONE?!

*Carts out*

Agent of the BSoD · « **Reply #655 on:** September 08, 2013, 02:37:38 AM »

Yeah, we're gonna have to do something during Halloween. Cirno day is kinda impossible for me most likely, with uni and all.

DX7.EP · « **Reply #656 on:** September 08, 2013, 07:32:03 PM »

We'll definitely have to have a meet for the upcoming Scream Fortress event. Cirno day's sadly too soon for meetings ~~so instead I'll encase a few buildings on the MC server in ice~~. :V

an unmatched sock · « **Reply #657 on:** September 08, 2013, 08:49:52 PM »

If it's later on a weekend, the odds of me joining are much greater. During the week by that time probably not so much. I will try to attend, though.

~~At your pleasure, doctor~~~

There may be a possible meeting between now and then, probably with more standard content if player count permits. Last meet demonstrated we're pretty tired of MVM, so that's out of the picture on official schedules for now. :V
