    And through to the next round :D Where we get to play Steel as the second map.......ugh. The first map is Badwater so lets get practising if possible

    Anyway, well played guys and yes it was fairly easy against the Americans.

    By the way, according to this: http://etf2l.org/matches/24001/ the Hysteresis vs Evolution match isn't happening until next Sunday, the 21st of November at 6pm CET.

    Well done guys, but I can't believe that we beat you and got knocked out in the group stages :( We had a really tough group.

    Well it was an extreme close call for us as well. FDM Weinkeller was really hard. If the random damages would have been different we could have lost easy.

    True. We should ask them to play against us again, so we could practice and they could try to get their revenge :) . Today was sooo boring as a spy -_- upward was not bad but quick, and i got like... 10 points over the whole gravelpit round :p

    Steel next time, that could be interesting ! + me like that map :D
    Does anyone ever played that one competitively ?

    I love that map in pubs :p

    Edit: I think we might have real trouble with Hysterious guys, they also played a bunch of games in the highlander ladder and won nearly all of them.

    On gravelpit as spy i found that camping below the entrance on B or A which leads to blu's spawn is a good way to rack up points when we had our highlander than on gravel pit i did this and got about 60 points doing so. It also a nice way to get there medic just before hes about to pop, just tell your team mates to hang back so he does uber early.

    Knightmare > yes, that sounds good. I tried a few times (and oncegot spotted by their spy... I don't remember who was spectating me at that time but NO that's not funny), but when your team's soldier, demo and scout keep spamming the only exit door they take (communication ftw :roll: ), well there's nothing left for you to backstab ^^.
    Thanks for your advice !

    So, when is everyone free? I'll be gone the Monday-Friday which is the 29th November-3rd December.

    We have an extra week to practice due to the next teams we face have organised their match this Sunday, so we'll likely be playing on the 27/28th November.

    https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc...memZOYmNoeGZ3MFE&hl=en&authkey=CIzP8sMP#gid=0

    The maps are Badwater, Steel and Viaduct. Our potential opponents:

    German team Hysteresis: http://etf2l.org/teams/10104/
    Russian team Revolution: http://etf2l.org/teams/11123/

    I know I'm jumping the gun a bit, but this will likely be our opponent if we win: http://etf2l.org/teams/10149/

    1) According to their Steam Group, only 3 announcements in 3 months (they're Lithuanian).

    2) Their scout is very good judging from his demos, lobby matches and server stats.

    3) Their Sniper does cheat or has cheated; he's been banned before. A video from when he wasn't: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQQ1fvvrElw It's pr3d in the video, seems to play scout too.

    4) Their demoman is a frequent 6 vs 6 player.

    Now I still need to watch Revolution/Hysteresis' demos...

    Well we are now playing the German team Hysteresis as they won 6-0 on Upward/Gravelpit: http://etf2l.org/matches/24001/

    Noticed not that high a score but might just be for that round.

    We have to practice, but unfortunately because our official of last week was postponed by the enemy, we as 6on6 war team have 2 matches in 1 week.

    Please please make some time free throughout the week and adjust the schedule

    IF you can play on a week day, PLZ put it there. I really want to practice guys, but if some of you can only play weekends, then that's just going to be very hard.

    Sorry for the late answer.
    I'm still available at week days.
    Unfortunately I won't be available next Saturday. I'm not sure about the Sunday so let's say I wont be available the whole next week-end. (27 and 28th Nov) :( Unless we move the match to 21 on the Sunday or something like that.

    Killvion, you got any news from their leader ?

    Spoke to zippy about this this morning, not sure whether he told anyone yet.

    To cut a long story short i turned my pc on this morning and a bright flash of light came from my PSU, shortly thereafter it tripped the power out for the whole house. Used a paperclip to short out the ATX cable (green and black wires 4th and 5th from the right respectively) this simulates it being plugged into the motherboard and you pressing the power switch.

    It just blew the fuse, dint power on or anything so it must be FUBAR'ed.

    Anyway the PSU is still under warranty, so should be sending it back and getting a replacement soon hopefully.

    In the meantime i probably wont be on as much (can only get on my brothers PC when he is out) but hopefully he will be out this Sunday so i can still play the practice match, and hopefully by next weekend my new PSU will be here.

    I just hope it hasnt fried the rest of my computer, but as i dont have a spare PSU lying around with enough juice (except the one i could remove from my brothers pc :D) i cant really test it.

    Least i dont have any assignments due in for next week.

    Everyone that has the time, Watch the ETF2L Highlander Mix up.


    <a class="postlink" href="http://etf2l.org/2010/11/27/the-highlander-mix-up-match-video-and-sourcetv-demo/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://etf2l.org/2010/11/27/the-highlan ... cetv-demo/</a>

    It has some nice moments, and we might learn something from it.
