Why you should visit the Unofficial SPUF Server

So, the night before this article was written, (since we don’t publish articles immediately) everyone jumped onto the SPUF server and had a whale of a time. We had all sorts of fun and it was nice. It turns out, all we have to do is throw a couple of people in there and it’s lovely. I’m going to tell you why we should visit the SPUF server more often.

Smissmas 2013: A Completely On-Time Review

Merry Smissmas everyone! Today I’d like to talk to you ab- What’s that? It’s already 2014, you say? Maybe I wrote this on the 21st of December and Aabicus screwed something up again. Regardless, it’s time to discuss the somewhat divisive Teufort festivities that we got this time around. Also, a note to those who read my only other article thus far… I promise this isn’t going to be another complaint-fest about me losing my toys. This is my attempt at an article that actually matters. If my last entry was a page in some crappy tabloid, this is my… [Continue Reading]

Texas Gunslinger Massacre IV

MONOLOGUE I promised myself I’d never do this again, but since Season 3 was apparently a tie, we must settle the score once and for all. That’s right. It’s the seasonal spamfest known as the… TEXAS GUNSLINGER MASSACRE IV Since the July 10th patch, Engineers have been dealt a heavy blow with nerfs to the Gunslinger and Wrangler, but will this be enough to help the Highlanders secure the season? DATE 12/28/2013 (Saturday) at 12:00 PM EST. *But that’s assuming Valve doesn’t screw up, but if they do, we’ll push it back a week later. SERVER I have my own… [Continue Reading]

Medieval Highlander results!

Everyone had a blast during the Medieval Highlander tournament this Saturday! Ultimately, team BLU sweeped the scoreboard, only losing a single round of Helltower when RED scout Davjo drank a Bonk! and jumped his way into the Bombinomicon surrounded by enemies. I’m waiting on several people to send me their demos, and when that happens I’ll have a compilation of the tournament from several points of view, but until then you can watch the event from the eyes of the worst spy in Team Fortress 2: This tournament kicked off our initiative as SPUF community organizers to have a new… [Continue Reading]

In Memory of Itsurblog 2

Urblog thread 2: The Revenge was the next in a duology of wildly successful blog threads on SPUF, both started by Zekrom3112, who must have some sort of voodoo magic for getting away with it twice. It once again has been locked, and unlike last time I’m not sure why. I was surprised when I went to the last page of itsurblog 2 and noticed that every post was TF2-related. The mods didn’t even put it out of its misery like the dongers/neontext/Lenny-faced ending of itsurblog 1. It was calm, rational, and conversational TF2 to the last post. I really… [Continue Reading]

Updates to User Policy

Listen up, maggots! It’s your friendly no-fun tech admin Commander here. Recently we switched to a brand new blog theme, complete with author boxes letting you know whether or not the guy who’s writing is qualified to write on whatever they’re blabbering about. Of course, we already had a way to display the authors on each article, so we had to go and do complicated things in order to make sure we only display the info we need to. Unfortunately, that caused even more complications with adding descriptions for those of you who submit articles via a staff member. In… [Continue Reading]
