I'm looking to organise an event for The Escapist. It'll be a fun-filled day of gory, limb splattering gibbing for all the family, with...

Team Fortress 2!

I'd like a list of all those daring, man-manly man-men (and women) who would like to spend a day gleefully fragging the crap out their fellow Escapists. They'll be beer! Cookies! And explosions! Lots of lovely explosions!

So state your name (Steam account name) if you want to play!

(The date is yet to be confirmed, I need to gauge interest.)
This is for PC.

Please post here before adding me!

==============================================================================

These are not necessarily steam usernames. These are Escapist forum names.

List so far: 58 people. These have been confirmed by both posting in this thread and adding me.

These allow someone who hasn't got a copy of TF2 to download and install it, and they get 72 hours to play as much as they can. So PM one of us for one if you want to take part but don't have TF2.

Alright, after seeing this thread it reminded me that I needed to purchase the Orange Box for my PC. Don't know why I havn't yet, but I'll get started with my purchase when I'm not lazy. Hopefully I'll have it before the day of our blood-fest :)

Tickets? Unless there's a $2000 PC for grabs or something, I'd say you're overestimating yourself.

Anyway, if you're able to organize the event well and get a lot of people, it might be fun.

Is this free or...? Also...do you plan to have a server available, or you know one where everyone would kind of just go and mooch off of?

Damn. My Ps3 version of the orange box is useless.

Does anyone know when they are going to release the secret weapons on the other two platforms?

They were planning to do it come the end of this year. For the Xbox, it's definitely going to cost money. I can't speak for the PS3 version, but it'll probably be a while before they're up on the PSN.

Valve doesn't do the PS3 transferrals in-house, you see.

Could people post any Team Fortress Free Trials they might still have? I havn't used mine yet.

It'll get you 72 hours of Team Fortress 2. You still need steam, though.

Yes but it might be difficult to find these specific people in a crowd of 339, for one game.

Erm, apparently we already have a group. But it doesn't seem to be too active. I wouldn't know thought.

I'd like to join, but I'll need to download TF2. With my internet, that will take about 3 days. And with my luck, it will be so laggy I can't join and play efficiently.

Do you mind if I try, though?

No problem, my internet is only 150Kb/s and I don't lag at all; add me and join the 'Escapist TF2 Event' group through my profile.

Divide your speed by 10 and you have my internet speed. So I don't know if that will be enough.

Terribly sorry. Wrong name.

I'd like to make a note, I do not have TF2 on my PC. I was merely stating that I will hopefully get it before the game starts, but don't count me out just yet.

Though I do have a Steam Account, but I don't use it at all. It's Jumplion, hang on I need to instal Steam on my new computer.

There's no date for this yet, so you should be OK. Just get it on fast to make sure. :)

Thanks Wilson.

Can I ask everyone again to join the 'TF2 Event Group', not the regular 'Escapist' group. Add me and find it through my steam profile.

Okay, my official Steam ID is "Jumplion". I'll add "The Escapist" group, and feel free to add me. I plan on buying "Teh Orange Box" sometime this week or next.

I might be able to get my clan to agree to let us use their private server. Don't know how that'll effect a lot of people's pings though.

How about some on-site prizes? A custom title for the Most valuable players and some badges for the winners?
