TF2maps.net's Payload Race & A/D CTF Contest







What happens when you give some TF2 mappers six months to make a map? What happens if that map is payload race or a resurrected Team Fortress Classic game mode, Attack/Defend CTF? TF2maps.net decided to find out. Take 'em for a spin and place your votes!

ETF2L Turns Two



The European Team Fortress 2 League turned two recently. In their own words:





"Whether it's a public server, a group of friends forming a clan, or a team of volunteers trying to build a place for people to play, online gaming and e-sports enterprises are notoriously fragile and short-lived. So, it's with a great degree of humility that ... we say we're very proud to see our organisation progress from strength to strength to become the biggest TF2 league in the world."

Congratulations on the anniversary, guys!





This Mailbox Just Got Dominated by Saxton Hale







Those of you who sent in money along with a coupon cut from Gentleman Scoundrel Magazine from our Sniper vs. Spy update recently received a handsome collection of postcards from Valve's other resident Australian strongman, Saxton Hale.



The money you sent has been donated to gamer charity Child's Play. Our legal department wants us to remind you that, in the future, please do not send us money (no matter what it says in the fake fictional advertisement). A friendly letter is enough to get potential free stuff sent your way.
