Thanks for keeping it real

I just wanted to say I really appreciate the regs sticking to TF2 and keeping it active. I haven't played tf2 for close to 5 months (Baby Zelmon hasn't quite got the reflexes down to whoop ya'lls butts just yet) but last Saturday I got a quiet moment to myself and I saw that TPG was hopping. After several great, classic TPG battles I felt like it was old times again. When I got off my hands were shaking and my face hurt from the massive grin. So I just wanted everybody to know that these kinds of small pleasures are great comfort with life's chaos.

Side note: I thought it would be funny to use the Liberty Launcher sound effect as my text message alert. Umm.... not a great idea. I was driving home from work a little dazed and I received a text. Lets just say highway speeds are not ideal times to think something exploded. Heh heh.

<--- Me after a marathon session of good ol' TPG TF2. Although my hands don't necessarily shake, my mousing fingers have gone numb a few times.

Good to see this game coming back, as well as some of the old players.

Raise that kid!

It never fails to take a long break from the game only to get that 'want' back. It just seems like we did it collectively this time with Skyrim & BF3 only to get that itch again. Server full pretty much every damn nite for the last month and a half.

Zheta -- by vote your ban has been lifted. Let me know if you have trouble getting into the server.

Coincidence? :P

Same here! I haven't really played much due to RL and other games, namely BF3 and FFXIII-2, but just recently I've started up again since I won a headset and it sure does feel like old times!

That's why I use the Engie's "Spy 'round here" clip as mine! Then I know that either I have a text or someone's warning me that there's a spy around me!
