The Guillotine Games are over!

Last Saturday our very own SPUF server was home to a new tournament, the Guillotine Games! There were 14 participants in total who fought for the title ‘Cleaverest guy on SPUF’ and a trophy to take home with them and show the world that they were the last scout standing! The tournament started off with a King of the Hill on koth_harvest. What started off as something that seemed an endless match, during the match the point switched hands several times and both teams were struggling to cap the point and wipe out the opposing team blocking the capture point.… [Continue Reading]

“The Hatless Update”

Oh, you thought I meant this Hatless Update? Haha, no, that is so 2011. I’m talking about the November 21, 2013 update, known as the Two Cities Update, though I believe the main feature of this update is the fact that it contains no new hats. If I’m not wrong, this is the only content update this year to not add any hats to the game. Isn’t that interesting? In all seriousness, I’m loving this update. It added so many new amazing things, adding a whole new role for the Medic in MvM, two new maps and added our much-loved Snakewater to… [Continue Reading]

A Few Changes

With the world of Team Fortress 2 being such a huge universe with so many different aspects, it’s difficult to cover all of them at once with a single article featured a day. In addition, we’ve been unable to try some new ideas we’ve had since we don’t want to disrupt the many articles that we have just waiting to be published. Thus, The Daily SPUF is announcing a new initiative: columns. We’re inviting you, the loyal readers and contributors, to think of something interesting to cover within the world of TF2 and write for us regularly about that topic. Interested… [Continue Reading]

Fortress Forever has been greenlit!

The Team Fortress 2 that preceded Team Fortress 2 is finally available on Steam via Greenlight! Fortress Forever is one of the largest fan-made Team Fortress games out there, designed to appeal both to fans of Team Fortress Classic and Team Fortress 2. It’s fast-paced, frantic shooting and (best of all in my opinon) everybody talks like they’re a pirate! Definitely go give it a shot!

Write Some Moar – The Sequel!

“But Medic, what on earth are you talking about? You write all the time!” I’m not talking about me, I’m talking about the chance to write stories for prizes! More to the point, I’m talking about the wonderful writing contest known as Write Some Moar! on the TF2 SPUF forums. Last time, 29 stories featuring over 70,000 words were judged by a panel of, um, judges, and much fun was to be had. And that fun has returned with the appearance of Write Some Moar! 2. Hosted by Argeon, instead of fighting with weapons, we’re fighting with words for lots… [Continue Reading]

The Guillotine Games!

You surely know the Scout. You probably know he’s a baseball fan from Boston. You may know his mom has been having some romantic visits from his co-worker.

Okay, that last part may not be true, but either way, the Red Sox, the Chinese mafia, and I are proud to present the upcoming event: The First Annual Guillotine Games! So what is this all about?You will be fighting with and against other scouts with this… [Continue Reading]

Introducing the SPUF Anthology Podcast!

Good day fellow SPUFers! I’d like to introduce you all to a little project I’d like to start up. It’s a podcast, but not in the traditional sense. Introducing: The SPUF Anthology Podcast. Essentially, it is a collection of short segments submitted to us on various (hopefully) interesting topics distributed in a tri-weekly format. Designed in a way so that anyone who wants to participate has a shot- no livestreams to make, no Skype to mess with, and don’t even get me started on timezones… Segments can be created on their own time. For now we will be focusing mostly… [Continue Reading]

Gunslingers Vs Highlanders! Season 3 Results

In previous Seasons, (Season 1 Season 2) the Gunslingers and Highlanders  have duked it out in an all-out war against which side would win. In Season 1, Highlanders won. In Season 2, Gunslingers won. Season 3 would be the tiebreaker as to which side would pull ahead over the other teams. However, there’s a twist this Season. On July 10th, the Gunslinger was nerfed! It no longer regens while it builds! Can this cost the Gunslingers a win? Let’s see the results then!
