So hi, I'm Apple, I finally decided to bite the bullet and sign up after a year of lurking. A few months ago I made the change from demoman to soldier, and also made the change from crits to non crits. This was nothing about preference because I hate crits, I just realised how to search for noncrit servers better.

Since then my usual 5:1 K/D has been knocked down to about 1.5:1, which was a bit of a shock I can tell you, but it probably helps that the constant influx of free pyro kills isn't present in noncrit servers. But while my aim is far above average my tactical sense of the flow of the game and positioning kind of sucks, but the reason I changed to soldier is because

A: I hated dying to scouts like it was going out of fasion

and

B: When I'm a soldier I can tell myself what I did wrong, where I should have been and what could have made a difference. As a demo I find it harder to do that in terms of anything other than "You missed the ****ing scout with the ****ing grenade again".



I'm a Euro player so that puts the TF2 2fort servers a little out of my ping range, but maybe I'll hop on to see you guys sometime.

That is an awesome avatar, not going to lie

Hopefully you can get a good ping on our servers

Here's the good old copy-pasta

TF2F#1 | Pro like Chro (208.100.17.252:27015)
TF2F#2 | Insane like Train (208.100.17.253:27015)
TF2F#3 | VOTE for NEXTMAP (208.100.17.247:27015)

These are our private servers, if you plan on playing in our (almost daily) Late Night Pick Up Games or Highlanders (9v9 or 10v10 with one of each class or one of each class plus an extra medic per team).
{TF2F} Amber (208.100.17.250:27015)
{TF2F} Kelly (208.100.17.251:27015)

Secondly, you should get Ventrilio (a voicechat program) and put in this info, so you can chat with us:

vent29.gameservers.com
Port 5787
No password.


Or, if you're of the lazy type, simply join any of our servers and (with Ventrilio installed and a user name selected) type "!vent" into public chat.  Through the magic of the internets, you will be connected to our Ventrilio server and placed in the lobby, to chat with us as you will.

Have Fun!

Welcome!   I switch between soldier and demoman alot as demo is my main but soldier (imo) is a much more "safe" class, as in, ok you missed him, but the aoe damage got him.
Nothing more satisfying than a direct pill into a 100 mph scout and watching him explode though

Fixed.
