SUMMER SHOWDOWN #2
HAMPSHIRE HEAVIES vs. SPECIAL ATTACK
Sunday 7th August, 7pm BST/8pm CEST

This is the second in a series of community matches between the Hampshire Heavies and various TF2 communities. This time we are facing members of Special Attack.

Players of all skill levels and backgrounds can play for the Hampshire Heavies, however you should be prepared for a higher level of strategy and teamwork than you're used to on our public servers. If you have any questions about the event, don't hesitate to ask here or send me a PM.

Date & Format

• Sunday 7th August
• 7pm GMT+1 (British Summer Time)

Voice chat
Mumble will be used for voice chat - follow this easy guide to set it up. Microphones are highly recommended for community events as a greater level of communication than found on public servers is needed.

Watch live
The event will be broadcast in a number of ways. It can be watched live on SourceTV (type connect hh5.thehh.co.uk:27026 into console) with commentary via Mumble, through your browser on a live stream (with the same commentary), or after the match with a SourceTV demo that will be uploaded.

Rules

• Stay on the server for the full hour
• If you can't attend, let your team leader know well before the match
• Be prepared to communicate and cooperate with your teammates
• Turn up at least 30 minutes early so we can discuss strategy and get any issues sorted

Advice

• Buy a microphone and set it up
• Stay with your teammates in a group - if you're a core fighting class you shouldn't go off by yourself
• Protect your medic

To signup

• Reply to the thread with your best 3 classes,
• your Steam profile URL,
• and whether you have a working microphone.

Please post all the above info, even if you're just a backup player.

After nine players have signed up we could still really do with some backup players, so continue posting!

Changes from last week: there will be no item gambling, and SourceTV might work.

And I of course have a working microphone.

I feel we have something to prove considering yesterdays match...I'm in.

scout solly sniper - would prefer a crack at scout

We need one or two people playing that can command the team, tell people where to go and lay out a strategy before the match.

I could be a backup player - preferably medic or maybe pyro.

I have a microphone and have managed to set up mumble.

Looks like I'm in again.

Classes: Medic, Heavy and Scout (ignore the first 2, I just added those in since we need 3 preferred classes and I'm not really good at anything else.)
Mic: No
