Congratulations Eric, Maniac, and Nox! Great work!

Time for more food, yay! Chicken parm and pasta with homemade tomato sauce; I have now realized that I have developed an unhealthy addiction to making pasta. Send help, please.

Will partake, but I'm not thanking the post.

Bacon, it's been a pleasure playing on the servers you worked so hard to maintain, and working with you on the Events Team. It's sad to see you go, but you accomplished great things here. I know we didn't know eachother that well, but it still hurts to see you leaving us. Take care man, best of luck. o7

Made Penne Alla no Vodka again, would go into the crusade but I already made it for week 3. Actually bought a cheese grater so it looks a bit better this time around.

I forgot to post this earlier, so I guess I'll post it now. Sad announcement. I haven't been feeling well these past few days, so there won't be a full-blown week 4. I did, however, have some breaded shrimp and fish for lunch (yesterday since it's 1am and why am I making this post at 1am I should be asleep what am I doing with my life I really don't know ok). A half-assed attempt to put something on the board for this week? Yes, I know. Hopefully next week I'll be able to make something better.

Last event was a couple of months ago, I'll look into another event and some new possible quiz topics with the team. Thanks for the suggestion!

Congratulations everyone!

Unfortunately, this event will have to be postponed, The event will be next week: Friday August 14th @ 6PM EST. I have no internet and cannot host it today. Update your calendars!

Since @Creten FORCED me to delete my post, I'll be bumping this thread now. The event is on Friday, mark your calendars!

I actually thought of this event before, but it wouldn't work simply because of how the Retakes server is structured. There are only 9 spots, so only 9 people would be able to attend the event at a time, while everyone else would just have to watch which wouldn't be very fun. Cept said it best - knife fight retakes is fun when it's just a spur of the moment kind of thing, but a larger audience wouldn't work for this type of event.

No problem homie. Also, I just confirmed with 20 scrolls, the AWP has only been moved to behind window on razor_go_pb (old razor), and is still in its original position on revamp, that's my bad. I definitely think the AWP should be moved on Revamp, but I think that behind window is the perfect spot.

Again, the managers are working on incentives for people to play CT more, and once more release, there will probably be a good chance that good CTs are playing on the server again. I don't know when that'll be, but going back to the original thread topic, once that does happen the AWP secret will be perfectly balanced. I understand your frustration, but I believe that the cons of moving the AWP in this situation would outweigh the pros in the long run.

Like I said before, there are phases of good and bad CTs. One phase can last a lot longer than the next one, but if you can tell, which I'm sure you can, the Jailbreak managers are working their asses off to try and create a better incentive for people to play CT, which is a hard thing to do without creating any secondhand issues. The ctbuy menu is a great start, and I don't mean to de-rail the theead but I'm pretty sure that most people who play CT still don't know this exists.

Well, I'll explain it this way. There are going to be different phases of CTs and Ts in Jailbreak. For a time you can have super shitty CTs, and then the next day wake up to see regs and good CTs on. If the map is edited to adjust for a poor-performing CT side, as soon as good CTs get on they're going to be able to counter that incredibly easily. Next thing you know, the secret isn't worth going in, because it's been nerfed to compensate for bad CTs that have been replaced by ones who know what they're doing. It's a cycle, and it's just going to create unnecessary work in the long run. I think that specifically for AWP secret it's in a good place as of now, and it doesn't need to be changed. But I'd also like to hear a manager's thoughts on this as well. @Bacon @Infinityward

@20 scrolls was the one who made the fix I believe, the AWP should have been moved to right under the window, if I remember correctly. Moving the AWP further is not an answer to bad CTs. If there are bad CTs there's not much anyone can do about that, except try to get good CTs on, play CT yourself, or try to communicate with your team better. But the map shouldn't have to be edited to give a crutch to poor-performing CTs or ones who don't know what they're doing.

I have to disagree. The main point of moving the AWP to above window is that the rebelling T is required to enter the secret to reach the AWP. Before, they could just jump up, grab the AWP, and go back to garage. If the CTs move fast, they can easily trap the T in the secret and pinch them, or nade them to death. Moving the AWP was just to give the CTs a bit more time to have to counter someone who uses the third cell secret. If the CTs are slow out of armory, don't check the secret, or don't work together to take the T out, it gives the T a chance to take advantage. If the CTS work together, anyone stuck in AWP secret is basically dead.

Sir, this is a Wendy's.

I've made noodle soup a ton, but the point of this is to kind of branch out and try new things, specifically not touching anything asian. I may try like sushi or bao zi sometime in the future, but I also may make ramen / noodle soup as well, depends on how fast I run out of ideas.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am extremely pleased to announce that Week 3 of my crusade has finally come! Week 3: Penne alla no Vodka As suggested by @John last week, this one took me like 30 minutes to make and it tasted really good. I also found out that parmesan cheese is expensive as fuck. Rate it 9/10!

This also works for the floater juice console spam on Summer Jail.
