    Sorry about my audio problems last night, I was experimenting with a few scripts/tweaks, and it appears one of them (which is supposed to mute my game when I activate push to talk) has a slight flaw in that it resets my game volume to full everytime I use it, and it somehow overrides any in game configuration and enables my TS ptt button for in game chat. It was otherwise working quite nicely, but I think I’ll turn it off so you don’t get that mad echo going on again. Good games last night though, that was a half decent server we were on, with some reasonable teamwork from both sides, and it was good to pick up a friends invite from our team’s medic after the fight 🙂

    Back to the topic, I made my pickup debut last night, in a thrilling 3-2 defeat on badlands with me playing drunken Medic 🙂 I definitely fucked up a few times, dying with uber charged a staggering 3 times in a row 😆 but improved as it went on and my pep talk and directions over vent earned me a few compliments after game which was nice 🙂 Anyway, it you enjoy the teamplay aspect of the game, definitely have a look into Pickups, and they’re not as scarey as I first thought they might be 🙂

    Give me a shout if you need a hand getting into them.

    Just read about this on the CommunityFT blog (http://communityfortress.com/tf2/blog/new-to-competitive-read-me.php) but there’s a new site up for PUGs where you don’t need to use IRC and is apparently good for new players like us.

    http://tf2lobby.com/

    It caters for EU players as well as US I believe, but I’ve not tried it.
