Texas Gunslinger Massacre IV

lights- 2 Comments , , , ,

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!

aabicus 0 Comments , , , , ,

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

aabicus 3 Comments , ,

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]

“The Hatless Update”

Night 0 Comments , , , ,

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

thesupremecommander 0 Comments ,

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!

aabicus 0 Comments , ,

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!

Medic 0 Comments , , ,

“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]

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. But did you know he has ties with the Chinese mafia? Or that he is actually just a very lonely guy that needs a hug? 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]
