Hey guys, a bit of a long message incoming. I appreciate it if you took time to read the following in its entireity:

Yesterday, Laby and I had an interesting conversation about TAOW and compeitive TF2. It came up after I mentioned I joined TR (Totally Retro, if you care), and Laby told me I still have a comittment of playing Medic for TAOW.

Don't get me wrong, I'll gladly play Medic if need be, but there's a few things I really want to get some information about.

One: Is anyone interested in playing Team Fortress 2 competitively? If so, why?
Two: Is anyone who's interested in playing Team Fortress 2 competitively know of the Highlander format, and have any experience?
Three: What about our mains? How will we decided who plays what class? Exactly how many Pyros do we have right now? Four?

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to play competitive TF2 with you guys, but thing is, this kind of thing requires experience and practice, and more importantly: simalar region. Those in EU should probably stay in EU, as far as TF2 goes. Not to be rude, but 100+ ping with any class except Engineer is a major pain in the ass. I've gone on a few laggy Lobby servers, and playing Pyro was near impossible.

Look, my point is this: Is competitive TF2 something we're all interested in? My personal answer? Yes. Ok, yes, 400+ hours of TF2 isn't anything to sneeze at, but with an incentive to play and get better, I can certainly evolve as a better Pyro than if I just pubbed all day.

But just because I say yes, doesn't mean other people will agree with me.

In more positive news: Guy has his own server running. Check it out. And also: is anyone on Steam missing from the group? Send me a note, and I'll fix that when I can.
