SPUF vs. Discussions II: Reqiuem

aabicus 0 Comments , , , ,

================IMPORTANT INFORMATION====================== The Date:Saturday September 21th at 6pm GMT The Server: SPUF Custom server The Rotation: koth_badlands, cp_granary, cp_gullywash ================================================== ======= On the stroke of 2013, two forums met on a lonely snow-covered hill, then an old abandoned factory, and finally a lonely snow-covered abandoned factory. To settle an old dispute. To prove once and for all which forum was more deserving of the steam that powered it. In the ensuing battles, gibs flew freely, fallen hats marked their owners’ graves, and basically everyone involved had a great time. So now its time for a rematch! Like last time, it’ll… [Continue Reading]

Good Offensive Teleporter Spots on Payload maps

aabicus 0 Comments , , ,

Boy oh boy do I love me some payload. At times I suspect it’s the most popular game mode in Team Fortress 2, probably because its asymmetrical nature keeps the battlefield fresh and changing, or because it always has the most visually exciting and dynamic map designs, or because it ends with a massive explosion. Almost every payload comes with a particularly tough stretch. This is the hardest stretch for the attacking team, and usually pops up somewhere around the penultimate check point. It’s usually the longest stretch, and often the final stretch before the offensive spawn moves forward. All… [Continue Reading]

Move that blog up!

aabicus 0 Comments ,

I’ve mentioned once or twice that I’ve had problems with Blog.com. As much as I love the URL, it seems like our fair blog is constantly being set upon by data vampires, who eat unsuspecting blog posts in the night. We’ve already lost three blog posts to the dastardly beasts, as well as our “Write for us!” page. In addition, readers are reporting that they cannot always see new blog posts, and the scheduling feature has a habit of just not paying attention to the set deadline. So I’m going to migrate over to wordpress and see if that solves… [Continue Reading]

In memory of “The thread that itsurblog”

aabicus 0 Comments , ,

Friends, yesterday a great sadness fell upon the denizens of SPUF. A mainstay in the TF2 forum, a juggernaut of Biblical tendencies, a wretched hive of scum and villainy, is gone. The thread that itsurblog has been locked. At 5,843 replies, the thread far surpassed anything the TF2 forum had ever seen in its mere three months of life. It had a thriving community of its own and a long history of discussion. It housed character role-plays, thriving discussions on games and pop culture, erotic slash pairings of the regular posters, and on the rare occasion, something about Team Fortress… [Continue Reading]

Demoknights vs. Demomen: The Results

aabicus 0 Comments , , , , , ,

As I posted recently, SPUF had a “Demoknights vs. Demomen” event, where we pit 9 demomen against 9 demoknights in three different gamemodes to see who wins. The result; resounding Demoknight victory, just like last time. pl_badwater: Demoknights capped in 6:20, then held off demomen from second point to the end. cp_yukon: Demoknights won 3 times in a row arena_lumberyard: Demoknights win 3 times in a row. Then the demomen team up and work together and defeat the demoknights in a flawless victory, while James Horner music plays in the background and the corpse of Walt Disney sheds a single… [Continue Reading]
