The soft parade has now begun. Listen to the engines hum. People out to have some fun.

Cobra on my left, leopard on my right.

Out of sight!

The light is getting brighter. Closer to the top. And theres still a few, avenues, left out in the dark.

BUT ITS GETTING, HARDER




Judas CHRIST

Holy shit!



Backstory; a few weeks ago, a few of us got into a discussion about how good Sniper is (as we do) and decided to take it out back and do some 1v1 mid games. Well, enough people wanted to fight that it turned into a full on tourney that our very own Badman put a very sweet prize pool down for. It was so much fun that as a holiday event we want to do a for real one.

HONORABLE MENTION: Crunch won the first one and got tons of free shit.

Atatme and I will not be playing, we're gonna administrate this bitch. Also I would love it if someone would stream - if not, I will.

RULES are subject to change upon discussion, but are currently:

Event is a double-elimination bracket. We will use some random bracket generator shit to pair you all up.
Matches are best-out-of-three and proceed as follows:
- First to three kills takes a game
- First to destroy a tier 2 tower takes a game
- Any and all heroes and items are legal
- Each player submits their hero choice to an admin before the game starts to avoid counterpicking
- Once a game has finished, players switch hero choices, unless they both agree to do the same matchup, or choose new heroes
- In the case of a third game, both players use the heroes they won with, unless they agree upon something different

Current Prize Pool:

50 Steam Marketplace dollars.

Though we highly encourage to get with the program and sweeten the pot a bit!

Note all this shit is entirely up for discussion, change, whatever. Dwol and I don't care we just want this to be awesome.

Please keep signups out of this thread, there is a signup thread here! And that being said, lets discuss this shit!

Oh hello everyone!



How is everyone's summer going? That's probably a redundant question as most of us talk just about every day, but regardless it seemed like something nice to start this shit out on. There has been lots of things going on lately so I figured we all could benefit from another semi-annual news post.

Firstly we have a new Minecraft server. It supports 10 players at a time and we will be building all sorts of awesome shit on it, including monuments of ourselves and BFP maps. Head over to the new official Minecraft Forum to talk about it and vote on what map we will be using!

It has gone without a news post thus far that our in-house competitive TF2 team the Cut-Throat Crew has competed in two seasons of TF2 Highlander events with the UGC Leauge. Huge props to those guys for not only showing up for weekly matches and very frequent practices, but actually winning their division in Highlander Season 6 and placing 18th at 6 wins and 2 losses in the summer games! As a sub for that team I will tell you that it's a ton of fun and we really do crush the fuck out of people so anyone who wants in please talk to Atatme, Barytaq or Eugene about getting involved for the fall season. Here is a link to the team's UGC page where our glorious record and team list can be found. CTC is one of the up and coming teams in the UGC Leauge, go be a part of it!

With the addition of the Minecraft server we are up to about 80 dollars a month in expenditures to keep this server train moving. Huge thanks to Erwin and Nugget for their big donations of late. With Massive's help we will be putting some ads on the site soon to help pay the bills so we're not so reliant on donations. Thanks a ton everyone for helping keep this stuff paid for.

I would also like to note that there's been a change in site ownership as of late. I have owned CTPirates.net since it's inception three years ago, but we have transferred ownership over to Casey (messy recipe,) so he is our new owner as well as webmaster. I will be putting up a new framework soon for our in-house game development company, Plundersoft. Huzzah!

Also, our roster, server info, etc has been updated. Sorry it took so long, I never remember to do that shit. That's all and god damn am I official sounding! Happy August 7th everyone, it only comes once a year.
