Dirty, Dirty Hacker

I was recently vote banned (for hacking) while playing Team Fortress 2 and just so happened to be recording a demo. This was on a SourceOP server which is a bit disappointing because they usually seem to attract the more mature players. It was just a temp...

Recently Completed Cleanup

I’ve been chugging along completing games, trying to reduce the size of my “to play” list that seems to grow more often than it shrinks. Following are some brief thoughts about the games that I’ve finished but didn’t write on: Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and the Damned...

Your friends can then connect using our listen server guide. On a dedicated server: Navigate to the “/tf/scripts” directory on your dedicated server. Open...

Upular by Pogo

I watch UP five times a week. Okay, not that much but I like it a lot. I also like this video/music remix that Pogo has done using only samples from the movie. If you enjoyed this, you may also want to check out his Skynet Symphonic...

How to Build a Mini Level 3 Sentry [OLD]

On July 9th, Valve claimed that they “fixed an exploit that allowed Engineers to build level 2/3 mini sentries.” Well, they did fix one way, but it wasn’t this one. EDIT: They fixed this in the July 13th update.
