For off-topic topics.
Every sub seems to have one. Let's give it a try.
Anybody here play TF2?

We had racing on Saturday, three crashes in the second last race of the evening (scratch, 22 riders). 7+ riders down, and 4 off in ambulances >_< (just had to say it somewhere.. its still rattling my nerves O_O)

We had a pretty solid stack 2 weeks ago in Canberra at the Bundahdome, one broken collarbone, one wrist. The odd thing was it was in the Italian pursuit at the end of the night, 2 laps in, so the pace was building but not crazy, and it wasn't on the straight where that team's changes were taking place. Guess someone just overlapped a wheel at the wrong time.

I never got into CS or WOW. But, I did play about 8 of the Final Fantasy. Basically up to X-2. Then it started getting weird.

Thoughts of living down there were plenty. I actually didnt even care for the resort that much, just the weather/beach/sun/food. If I could get a reliable internet connection I could probably sneak down for the winter. Aguascalientes has a fast track I hear 
I use to play TF1 and CS. D2 was my entire high school education. Lost touch with games after that thank god, they were a real time/life suck for me.

That actually looks rad, if I had any idea about gaming I'd probably be a tad more up to speed.
FWIW I'm the youngest of four, and grew up in a household that grudgingly, reluctantly had one television that only used very infrequently and no computers until all us kids had moved out. Sometimes I feel like I missed out on something I would have enjoyed, but, y'know, I did ride bikes a lot.

There's a new game called Overwatch that is launching early next year. If you want to get on the ground floor of a big game, that'd probably be the one to pick. I've signed up for the Beta when it launches.
I think the average gamer's age is over 30. So, if you consider all of the kids and teenagers as part of that, that means that there are just as many players over 40...like me

I thought we were the only ones who taught a cat to sit for food. Our old cat we had when growing up was taught to sit for her bowl and would only move for the food when the bowl was tapped and then placed on the ground... Could hover the bowl in front of her and she wouldn't budge.

Which is why we've got a couple of years left with ratty couches and armchairs. Next cats will be better Dammit...

I've been gaming since I was like 12, but I just started playing TF2 3 years ago. It's never too late to start
