Welcome welcome,

It's about time I got off my fat gelatinous nerd ass and wrote an update for you fat gelatinous nerd bros. In the wake of repcon and truly becoming Americanized I've become uncaring and lethargic towards anything that resembles any actual work. Also being out of work for nearly 3 months doesn't help either. So let's skip on how pathetic my life is and get right to the news:

REPCON 1.5

Repcon! That's right Repcon has finally come and gone, the 2nd of the summer in which 4 more unfortunate souls were trolled into believing there were good times to be had in North Dakota. Jokes on you assholes! Gris threw a great wedding where we immediately drank all the beer, and I had joose, and then threw up. Twice. (Yay!) Pleasure to meet all the newbies and as always great to see the OG gang + news paige and zem of course. Might I direct your attention to the Repcon picture and highlight thread for more information:

Embarassments of 2010

Sorry to the sad sacks who couldn't / wouldn't come but you missed one hell of a party! And I emphasize ONE, as Vino has only the power to plan one night of partying and then flake out on the rest of the weekend.

Fuck Vent, Go Mumble!

We've recently switched over to Mumble instead of Ventrillo. The change came after several suggestions to "Get big" and assurance that this was much "better", I've switched our Vent channel to a mumble channel. Thus far it's proving to be much more popular, with better sound quality and a cute overlay that blocks my mineral count in SC2. Here is all the necessary info you'll need to get hooked up!

Dropping UGC

The 8v8 team is dead, we made playoffs but near the end of the season I was so tired of playing shitty maps with people I had to haphazardly throw together an hour or two before the actual match. Thanks to everyone who came out and played, it's been a great season and really fun to play with all of you, but I just didn't think anyone was really having fun out there.

So now that I've put that faggoty baby to bed, we can start thinking about a new 6's team. Huzzah!

That's all I've got for today, I'm sure there are some things I've missed; but get over it it's 4:20am here and I'm not digging for things to post about. Upcoming events will be coming in the form of an SC2 KOTH scheduled night. (We've been testing this for a few nights and have been having some decent success) -- and more information on the TF2 6v6 team to follow. I've currently rostered with ESEA-O's xXxBIG420BALLERSxXx - so I'm most likely going to be sticking to the lower leagues. Time to get my hobo-breakfast noodles ready...

Good game Exodus Society! The undefeated team in UGC's 8v8 takes a loss tonight as we beat them 2 - 1 on Gravelpit. Short a few of our main starters, Kool B and Mr. BrooseCaboose stepped up to the plate and did a great job in healing and broosing the other team into submission. I'm personally getting pretty tired of this league and am currently looking into fielding a new 6v6 team to play in the lower leagues to get a little bit of competition exposure. I'm aiming for a huge ass roster so that I'm not chasing people down days before the actual match, and people who are available to play in pick up games (tf2 lobby) whenever necessary.

In other news, the server has been ragingly popular for some reason after the engineer update, so I welcome you all to come help populate and play! The prop mod is a big hit, and I don't think the "themes" are coming back - that was a really nice short lived mod. Unfortunately poorly optimized and lagged the server, so we went ahead and turned it off.

Also - if you haven't already heard, Alien Swarm fever has hit V2 and the like, so make sure you head on over to the steam store and pick up Alien Swarm Valve's new FREE game. I hope the modding community takes to this as I think the game mechanic itself is pretty fun - download it now and join one of us in battle!

Edit: Spread the word.. TARANTULA!!!
