Our TF2 server (tf2.2fort2furious.com - 209.62.27.83) is host to TF2 Karaoke, a mod written by FLOOR_MASTER. We’ve been steadily releasing videos of the ensuing horrorshow on our new YouTube account, 2fort2furious:

Finally, a random moment on 2fort2furious:

TF2: 3girls1bacon

“Arriving at the initial crest of enthusiasm toward Valve’s Team Fortress 2, Team Roomba’s video showing an array of petty, hilarious and oft imaginative cruelty was an immediate memetic sensation. Griefing is usually little more than plain sadism; but with the right soundtrack and frame-perfect editing, Team Roomba’s videos have turned it into - whisper it - a kind of comedy performance. Or, at least, something other than just being a douchebag.”

Highlights of the article: I get namedropped and FLOOR_MASTER’s and Jer’s real life names are revealed! I recommend you gander on over there and give it a read!

Both Vimeo and Veoh re-encode uploads (something that degrades the quality significantly). Veoh has slightly better picture quality, but reduces the framerate to a stuttering, jerky mess. Vimeo has slightly worse picture quality, but maintains a smooth framerate.

Veoh for some reason collapses the audio into mono, but Vimeo preserves stereo sound.

Vimeo, however, is the clear winner because they provide a link to download the original AVI file that I upload. While Stage6 was still better in the sense that they streamed the original AVI file to the viewer, Vimeo is an acceptable alternative.

Here’s an example of an embedded Vimeo video:

TEAM ROOMBA PRESENTS: Meet the Pyro from FLOOR MASTER on Vimeo.

Again, note that you can go to the video’s page on Vimeo and download the higher-quality AVI file directly (the link is at the bottom-right).

One thing that annoys me about Vimeo’s streaming video is that they seem to set their keyframes to every 12 seconds, which becomes a hassle if you want to skip around to specific parts of a video that don’t fall on those 12-second boundaries.

In case you can’t figure it out (or read), the video is a reference to Prodigy’s Firestarter song and music video.

You can also download a high-quality DivX encode of the video at Amazon S3.

I am proud to present, the transcription of More TF2 Griefing. As told by NiteCyper. I have no life. Italics won’t transfer.

(0 - 0:06)[Pyro standing beside trapped Sniper, Medic and Soldier:] Do you think that uh… he’s glitched, or is he being a douchebag?
(8 -10)[Medic:] I think it’s a little of column A, a little of column B.

[Intro]
COUPON BUG DOT COM!

[Two engies construct teleporter exits near two enemy sentries at point A of cp_gravelpit. There is random voice chatter, meanwhile.]
[Daggerhart:] Son of a bitch. Fucking heavy with a…

[-=TripWire=-:] I hope they like anal.
[Daggerhart:] Sniper’s a spy.
(0:32-0:33)[FLOOR_MASTER:] Guys, my teleporter’s up.
[Jer:] Teleporter’s’r up guys.

[-=TripWire=-:] Hey, you know, Demoman that’s blocking himself with (in) that little shack.
[Heavy gets teleported and is shot down by the sentries:] Thanks- UUGH!

[Jer and FLOOR_MASTER stand patiently in front of their teleporter entrances in front of the blue spawn.]
(0:48)[-=TripWire=-:] Look at these two engineers just watching.
[Daggerhart gets teleported and pwned by the sentries:] Wow, I got fucking rock. There’s two sentries right there. [respawns and looks at the teleporter he had just taken:] I’m not taking that one. [Turns to the other teleporter and gets teleported and pwned again firing his shotgun in surprise.] Holy fucking shit! Oh my god.
[-=TripWire=-:] …so dumb. [respawns and looks undecidedly at both teleporter entrances.] (1:14, sighs) Choices!.. I’ll pick yours. [teleports and is pwned by the sentries helplessly trying to flame them as he is propelled backward.]

[Jer and FLOOR_MASTER finish building teleporter entrances in front of red spawn on cp_well.]
(1:21)[Jer:] Guys, my teleporter’s up. It goes right into their base, guys.

(1:35)[n0ne:] Don’t use the teleporter of that guy with the really fucked up name with squares in it.
[KGB Agent 666/FLOOR_MASTER:] Huh?
[n0ne:] Yeah, your teleporter.
[Jer:] Why would you make a recommendation like this?
[n0ne:] Because they have sentries on top of the exits!
[Chief Engineer/FLOOR_MASTER:] You’ve gotta be kidding. The sentries would destroy those teleporter exits.
[Jer:] Exactly.

(1:54)[Inside the second cap spawn room of red on cp_well. ReeferLord/OMGHAX sprays meatspin on the wall blurred out by the video editor. Cobalt spawns, notices it and pauses.]
[Cobalt:] NO! NO! THERE WILL BE NO GAY SEX SPRAYS! [proceeds to spray over it with the third panel of Penny Arcade’s TF2 strip.]
[Mahatma Jonny:] You can not outlaw gay sex sprays.

(2:11-12)[Halfway into the right side hallway of the exit of blue’s spawn to Point B on cp_gravelpit. Jer is a pyro firing off his flamethrower into the scope of a sniper.]
[bhpenguin the sniper:] Jer, move, you idiot.
[Jer:] Why?
[bhpenguin:] (Half laughs.) I’m trying to get that sniper, man. Sorry. He’s gone. Careful though-
[Jer:] Just trying to make it challenging. Trying to make it challenging.

(2:27)[In the left side hallway, rEVOLution/FLOOR_MASTER walks in front of a sniper and constantly redisguises to make a cloud of smoke in the way of the sniper’s scope.]

(2:37)[Jer does the same on cp_dustbowl inside the house past the first point to cap.]
[Dingo the sniper:] Yo, Jer, you mind moving away, I’m trying to kill people. What the- Jer! Move (inaudible) way! Let me kill people. Yo, Jer, move out of the way!

[Jer flame blocks a sniper in a hallway leading outside on the bottom floor of 2fort.]
[Hitman the sniper:] Jer, are you trying to be a dick, or does it just come natural?

[Jer on 2fort ramparts.]
[Saiko Slash:] Get sniped, man…

[FLOOR_MASTER boxes a friendly sniping sniper outside cp_gravelpit, point B]

[Saiko Slash:] FLOOR_MASTER, you’re fucking retarded.
[Flameblocking snipers on 2fort who repeatedly get outsniped.]
[FLOOR_MASTER:] I don’t uh, appreciate that. This is (inaudible) supportive atmosphere and you’re not being conducive to such-
[Saiko Slash:] I don’t care! You’re not helping at all. You keep on getting in the way and I can’t see.

[Jer flameblocking at Dustbowl’s last point.]
[Dingo:] Hey, Jer! Move out of the way!

[ubermagoo is flameblocked, outsniped and respawns:] Yeah, thanks for blocking my view there, Jer.

[Dingo:] C’mon! Gosh (God).

[approx. 4:20 the sniper on 2fort ramparts:] Quit, bitch. Last time, I’m gonna tell you, dude. [gets outsniped after flameblock.]

[Dingo:] Jer, move!
[spooN sees them and laughs:] Haha, Jer, what the fuck, man?
(3:25)[Dingo:] Do I know you, Jer, or something?
[spooN:] I think he likes you, man.
[Dingo:] Yeah, I know.
[SandTrout:] He’s definitely a flamer.

(3:33-34)[Jer jumps on a passing train and lands a teleporter exit. He waits for a passing train to come underneath and destroys the exit as a pyro is teleported. Note: The train will destroy buildings floating there anyways.]

(3:49-50)[FLOOR_MASTER ubers Dingo in the pits near blue’s spawn in cp_dustbowl as he is sniping. He undecidedly moves ahead and goes to melee at the first point but is discouraged by a level 3 sentry and retreats quickly.]
[Dingo:] -uber me. Who’s ubering me? Why the- what- you don’t uber a sniper! What are you doing?!
[FLOOR_MASTER:] Just trying to help.

(4:04-4:08-9)[rEVOLution/FLOOR_MASTER runs into the secondary spawn room of cp_well and jump-crouches into the doorway to get it stuck from the inside. Two pyros attempt to crawl out to no avail.]
[Xora Terrif:] What the fuck? Move!

[Vertigo:] What the hell did you do?

[Sarkem:] That’s a nice way to block everyone from gettin’ out.

[Needle Rat:] Uh, what’s going on?

[Schwampe:] Dude, leave the game, you’re detracting(?) us.

[Strykers:] What have you done?

[Sarkem:] This is awesome. I think we have our whole team in here.

[Sipster:] What the fuck…

(4:33-34)[(VxD) Phargo:] Fuck you, fag. Get off the thing.

(4:34-35)[-(eGO)- Blackhawksn.. to the door-jamming scout spamming ‘Need a Dispenser here’:] Chief Engineer, move. You have 3 seconds before I ban you. 1… 2… 3-…
[10 seconds later.]
[Chief Engineer/FLOOR_MASTER:] Your clock runs pretty slow.

[Xora Terrif:] Fucker!

[granola.suicide:] What would possess somebody to come into a server and do this kinda shit?

(5:02-03)[Sipster haplessly hacking at the scout with an axe:] Oh my god, dude. Get a girlfriend! C’mon!

(5:05-06)[PIC|LivewiRe our racist brit OTD:] Get ou’ of the fockin’ wehh. What the fok are you dooin’, you styupid fockin’ idiet? Kick the cunt, kick the cunt, get the (inaudible), get the fucker out. Yu’ fockin’ yankee prick. Just- What is it with your lot, eeeehhhhhhhh? Fockin’ amehrickins, man.

[III.Char:] Fucking retard…

[PIC|LivewiRe:] Fockin’ prick, man.

[TF | :] (inaudible, probably japanese speech in a long complaining tone that probably says:) GTFO, kthxbi.

[Sipster still axing and half laughing:] Fuck youuu!

[Astro-Lort:] Wow, that’s gay…

[Jecrell sounding a bit like Griff:] Whyyy?!! Why, God, whyyy?!

[A soldier blows himself up as a solution or in frustration and guts fly everywhere.]

[Schwampe to a voice command spamming scout:] This sucks.
Leave the game. You’re stuck, dude!

[Jer:] I’m- I’m stuck.
[commanderspunky:] Then switch classes, or kill yourself.
[Jer:] I don’t wanna mess up my stats! That’s not a good idea-
[commanderspunky:] Then switch classes. It won’t kill you. You’re being a fucking jackass, you fucking dick!
[Jer:] Whoa, whoa! I’m- I’m sorry! I- I don’t know- I don’t know wh-
[commanderspunky:] Switch classes!
[Jer:] Then it’ll kill me!
[commanderspunky:] No, it won’t! Not when you’re in the spawn!
[Jer half laughing:] I swear to God, it’ll kill me! Just trust me!
[L7 sce:] It won’t kill you-
[commanderspunky:] I swear to God, it won’t! Look, I just switched, I’m a scout! Look, I just switched, I’m a soldier! Fucking switch classes, you bitch!

[Jon:] I, Jon, will vote for Ron Paul.

[Tal:] I, Tal, pledge to vote for Ron Paul.

[Fail=BrownyMaster:] I, BrownyMaster, pledge to vote for Ron Paul.

[D|S-Reevax:] I support the gold standard.

[Jecrell:] I support the gold standard.
