Absolutely nothing wrong with kloning when you're starting out, it really helps you nail some important ideas and skills.

Looks a lot like Industrial Coal Miner, I assume that's where the idea came from. Looks cool though.

I would recommend changing the angle connectors for even just extenders (1 20cm extender mounted on it's side could replace your 90 degree thing and the 22.5 one too), and also you could milk a little extra weight out of it by changing the baseplate anchors for the more useful, and lighter, red and black multi-extenders. Just a few tips, there are more, but see what you can do from there :)

Also noticed this, doesn't matter as no one from GTM's going on my FB friend list.


Why have it there then?


But yeah, it used to work. Odd.

I can't remember if you can from the server itself but in Steam, if you go View>Players it gives you a list of all the people you've played with recently :D

If that's for this Sumo thing, why are you using even vaguely heavy plows? If it is for that, downgrade them, put another set of motors on or something. Yes it might be 2 FAST! but that extra grip and push will help in sumo.

Lel after what turned out to be a tough few years for me personally I'm surprised I even got accepted into a Uni, despite not making the asking grades. Portsmouth 2013.. Anyone? Anyone?

I only tend to use the Medigun - if you have a lot of members that need healing on your team the Quick Fix is useful.. but the Ubercharge isn't half as effective and you get no overheal on it either.

Until December 25th, a HTC Wildfire. Which is slow as hell and sometimes takes 4 hours to receive a text.

It's worth buying 1 just so you can trade in-game, then people like me who have duplicates and don't care a huge amount about moneys can give you weapons. :3

He proposed the question. As long as I don't listen to it I'm fine with other's opinions.
Pretty much, it's his loss anyway.


Fine with other's opinions, but thinking his opinion is wrong. Hm. But yeah, my message wasn't even directed at you.

Ooooor you can let people listen to what they want to (this coming from someone who also dislikes Nickelback). Besides, Nickelback are rock. Just radio-friendly rock that you don't enjoy.

I am not a good Medic at all. I just pocket heavies because I know no tactics, but my good classes have been commandeered (see Pyro and Engie). But my main class is Pyro, and I know GF would never give up Pyro because he won't play anything else.

Off-Topic Discussion / Songs That Changed Your Life

Okay, the title may be a little melodramatic, but basically, I thought it'd be cool for everyone to share a couple of songs, say 5 max, they think have been most influential to them as a person or their music tastes.
Just 2 rules.
1) Try not to include a band twice. This is for me as much as anyone else, a Muse-spam list would not be interesting.
2) ABSOLUTELY NO SNIPING AT ANY PERSON'S CHOICES. It's quite a personal thing, in my opinion, and is absolutely unfair to go laughing at someone.


Okay, I shall start...
1) Welcome To The Black Parade - My Chemical Romance
This song, as much as I dislike it now, started me on the road from a purely 'indie-rock' kinda range to the music taste I have now developed.


2) Stockholm Syndrome - Muse
Well who saw this coming? To be honest, it was so hard to pick 1 Muse track that I just picked the one that still really gets me to this day. The way it just keeps getting bigger and bigger is insane.


3) 5:15 - The Who
The Who are just such an amazing band. This track really opened me up to that whole area of music, and made Quadrophenia one of my favourite albums. The blend of brass instruments and keys with the band themselves is excellent.


4) American Idiot - Green Day
This blew my mind when I first heard it, but I guess I was too young to keep looking into their music or my taste would have developed much earlier than 2006 with Black Parade.


5) Never Gonna Give You Up - Rick Astley
Never take things too seriously. Always have a bit of fun. Let's Rickroll some unfortunate chap.


6) Sorry You're Not A Winner - Enter Shikari
The first screamy song I got into, and the electronic influences may have been the source of my fondness for a bit of deadmau5 now.

You may also want to read the topic title - it closed almost 3 weeks ago, and it has started, which you can see in the Brackets and Videos section. Finally, the topic icon is a red S-, which means the signups are closed.

Are you seriously implying that you try to talk tactics in a public lobby in any online game?
I'm new to multiplayer games as a whole, I honestly have no idea how the dynamic works, full stop.... apart from the popular media's portrayal of online gamers as potty-mouthed racist griefers.


Your best bet if you really want to discuss tactics is to use the built-in team text chat. Can't remember the default key, but that's kinda handy if you wanna say 'can a demo go blow the sentry' or 'WHY DO WE HAVE 6 SPIES'.
