About 8 hours total. I played XFG's Dustbowl server the whole time and ended with 787 points.

I play LotusClan goldrush occasionally, but I don't like the full-length respawn so I only play it when everything else is full. I might donate to XFG so I can play whenever I want.  giggle;

I ended up playing all day yesterday too, and it's looking like today will be the same.  doodhuh;

I just noticed you are running on Mac OS. Crossover/WINE?

I boot Windows XP when I have some gamin' needs. Parallels and other emulation softwares are annoying and slow and shitty and don't support games very well, at least last time I checked (which was, admittedly, two and a half years ago but it's still easier to just restart and run Winders natively for a few hours).

Also Windows is easier to run for free than emulation dicks.

I'd give almost anything for Valve or a third party to port all Valve's shit to OS X/OpenGL, though.

I agree with you there

My Ubuntu can play TF2, but at these limitations, starting from a minor bug to extremely annoying:


I can't get Windows, because it is not free  n_u

  • Direct X Level 7 (or it's just my hardware - however, many have confirmed it may have to do with Linux in general)

  • Lags a lot more than it does on the computer

  • Locks up after 5 ~ 20 minutes, and I have to do a hard reboot madood;

My laptop (which has Ubuntu) has a bad, bad hard drive (I did fsck and badblocks and I had so many errors I had to keep clicking "y") and so Windows refuses to install on it.

My Vista desktop is my TF2 Server computer. Also it has AMD Dual Core. Which sucks gluteus maximus.
