With an Australian accent, he sure has a good amount of sense of humor. Especially making a reference to FPS Doug in Counterstrike.

I laughed soo hard while watching this :lol:

"I'm not a crazed gunman, dad. I'm an assassin. What would the difference be? The one is a job, the other is a mental sickness!"
I'm sure my dad wouldn't like me to be an assassin either...

There was a glimpse of the new Pyro weapon that will soon be available in the Pyro Achievement Pack this Thursday. It appears to be a firefighter hose that fires like a Grenade Launcher held by a demoman. Personally I think it's the Flare Launcher. Not sure why Valve is making the Pyro a reference to Firefighters with the suit and the axe.

Perhaps not firefighters, but firemen. Ever read Fahrenheit 451? :P

That new flamethrower looks so damned awesome! The achievements doesn't look too hard either so it should be quite possible for the average player to get it :) And I must say their creativity when it comes to achievment names are very good. 'BarbeQueQ' made me laugh quite good :lol:

Oh_Man -- No APM in chess. Computer just outthinks the human by seeing more moves ahead and more permutations

Oh_Man -- U reckon? Kasparov waa defeated by computer decades ago

NimoStar -- If its any consolation, the human brain would still mop the floor with this bot if it wasn't limited by the mechanical interface
[05:34 pm]
NimoStar -- Well. The bot didn't come up with any new strategy. It just has superhuman micro. Hard to beat that. I reckon even the simplest dedicated chess engines are unbeatable for humans now.

NudeRaider -- Oh_Man
Oh_Man shouted: NudeRaider did u watch the entire video? it's not one game. it's currently dominating the ladder at number 1 position. do ur research first!
Oops, caught me there, no I haven't. :( I was imagining how the game went. Sorry for that. Watching it now. brb
[10:52 am]
NudeRaider -- NimoStar
NimoStar shouted: They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available
that doesn't mean he was prepared. When humans come around with new strategies it often takes weeks until the pros figure out how to shut it down. Oh_Man that's certainly a way more convincing argument for micro being "too good to beat".
