So apparently there is this Highlander Thing, and apparently it is kinda a big deal (this Free crank keeps rambling on about it). I think that any great event needs great recording so the masses can look upon us, green with the flames of a thousand years of envy that they, mere mortals in the face of giants, were not included in this frag fest.
So I have a proposal to make, gentlemen (and ladies). I want to make a frag video. Not just any frag video. The Community Fortress Highlander Tournament OFFICIAL (sorta) frag video. But to do this, I need demos. I need lots of demos. I need so many demos that it becomes part of my daily ritual just to sit here and curse out valve software's stupid demo watching system. And since everyone needs to be recording demos anyway, I figure that you can provide me these demos. So send me an email with all of the following things.
- A Demo, archived up somehow (zip rar 7z), named in the following fashion [playername]_[class]_[map]_[teamname]_[country].zip/rar/7z (also acceptable is a tf2demos.com link)
- Ticks of your awesomeness. Competition will be fierce as I will only accept a few clips per week. So make them epic.
- A SHORT description of the awesomeness. Example: "I started off with a sick double ambassador headshot followed by sapping the sentry and proceeding to backstab 5 of the remaining players before getting the medic to uber me as spyro"
- Your email header should read "commftdemo [playername] [class] [map] [country] [up to 5 words describing your awesome]" (example "commftdemo shdwpuppet USA soldier 4 airshot spire") I will filter emails by these tags at first to make sure we get a lot of variability in classes.
- (optional) a link to a youtube video or download link or maybe just a name of a song you think would be epic in the frag vid. No genre limitations, and, if I pick your song, you get a shoutout in the credits.
Send the demos + all that info to shdw.puppet+ This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Please, only official matches, no scrims please!
All demos/emails not following the format will be deleted. If I am feeling nice and have the time, I may reply that your demo/email does not follow format, please correct. But then again, I may not. No limits to the number of demos you can submit, but each person will only be in the movie once. Not all those who submit will be featured, but thank you to everyone who does end up submitting.
Graham really wants me to encourage you guys to upload your POV demos to tf2demos.com and link them in the appropriate place (I think he is making a thread tomorrow) so that everyone can witness the sheer awesomeness that is the Community Fortress Highlander Tournament. SO DO IT!!!!
Thanks everyone, I hope to have a fantastically frustrating time on this project!
Love and cookies ~

Also, would all the CommFT servers have STV? Because that could come in handy for this…
Really looking forward to some insane Engie or Spy streaks :)
