No No. We Finally reveal the winners to the meet the Demoman uncensored contest and reveal what was censored in the video 3 years ago. Its one hell of a show and its...

Updates, updates everywhere but not a drop to drink: 'cause we've finished it all. Never mind, there's plenty to do in-game, what with the weapon tester and the beta server update (now everyone is OP). We give ourselves a big high five, courtesy of Geit and his 1337 sourcemod coding skills, over AG's 9vs6 challenge before sitting back down to watch Akuago220's adaptation of the Loose Cannon comic....

Well we couldn't let the holidays pass without giving you guys a present now could we. But be warned. This episode contains outtakes, live audio, TF2 christmas skits, poor impressions and horrific singing. But all with Christmas cheer.

Follow our in-depth discussion on the topic, a look at DDoS countermeasures, an interview with the site creator of tradefortress and some slightly disturbed images of a Pyro doing unspeakable things to his weapon of choice.

We are joined this week by the man behind the meme, "nope.avi", JimboMcB. Between exploits, automated feedback systems, 200 scatterguns and advanced weapons we have a pretty bumper show for you.

Now that Halloween is dead and buried, again, and we've closed the mailbox for the uncensored competition there's nothing left to do but kick back with a few bi-dimensional friends for poker and some TF2tv.

BOO! Scared you didn't I. No? But its halloween. That means it's Scream Fortress time. This week we talk about all the haunted goings on that valve have given us. We'll also talk about the ways to avoid getting phished, AG turning 1 year old and Be visited by several TF2 ghosts. Oh and there was something else.....what was it again. Oh yeah. We're on the blog.

We are joined this week by Dutch div.1 player, ViQun. He's here to give us the run down on the competitive TF2 scene in Europe. We learn that the GRU have been around since the competitive beta and that it really does pay to play with video games, no matter what your parents may tell you.

Three shows in we're still talking about the Polycount Weapons and now VALVe have released the winners of the Artpass contest. This week we set to discussing these, the lack of frying pans and the overabundance of crates. Topping everything else though, we have the Uncensored Demoman contest. Good F***ing luck to everyone who enters that!

Due to the aligning of the stars, we are all in one place for a change. This gives us a great chance to talk about more of the polycount weapons and indeed some of the changes recently made for the update. But that's not all. We realise we didn't mention the comic last week, So this week, we are going one step further. What do we mean by that? Well, have a listen and you'll find out.

Holy Fish. The polycount update has happened. But what's that? Trading, Customisable items and a TF2 store? Not to sure what to make of it all? Neither are we. But settle down, we'll give you all the facts and our thoughts on it all. If you didn't have an opinion on the update, You will do after this episode.

There's never been an episode quite like this one. Agro and Tempest have it out, beta style, one fuelled by whiskey, the other vodka. If nude maps, 24 hours of gaming and Shakespearian prose isn't enough for you, listen out for how to use the TF2 Wiki Cheat code: UP UP DOWN DOWN LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT B A Enter.

Avast me hearties, tis Arrgro, B00bies and Cap'n Tenbreasts bringing you this ear booty of audio pleasure on the International Talk Like a Pirate Day.

Bosun Pat and his black'n'white parrot has all ye entries for the TF2 like a Pirate contest too. Who be the lucky land lubber ta be walking away...

The rest of the guys are back from PAX Prime 2010 and they brought a friend. Joining us this week is Kragnarok, aka The Red Heavy. Since he's here to help us chat about the TF2 events at PAX, recent changes to the game, what it takes to be a cosplayer and of course there's that open beta we promised. We could just blame the heavy for that.

Well this week most of the guys have left for PAX. yeah thats right, they Tempest all on his own. But its OK, because he's employed the help of Bcarr (TGBF, community fortress) and Smashman (TF2 wiki) To help go through the news this week. But more importantly we have a big announcement for you all. want to know what it is? Well there is only one way to find out.

If it wasn't bad enough that we now have Holy Hand grenades there is also a Holy Grail TF2 cross over video. That should set the scene nicely for this episode. We discuss the possibilities for the Sam & Max, Strong Bad, Penny Arcade, TF2 cross over to be announced at PAX. There's Golden Wrenches to be destroyed this week and the winner of our 1st KK Heavy Boxing Tournament. The busiest of birt...

Where is Team Fortress going? Nobody really knows. well except 1 man. Robin walker. That why he's been giving interviews all over the place. We digest through what has been said and bring you some great fan art and fan...expression. Its been a bust week. Too much for some.

A week cram packed with news. Robin Walker drops the bombshell that trading is coming to the next big update. Speaking of explosives, the MythBombers wonder on to our screens. The KritzKast Boxing Tournament is announced, Killcam screenshots get their own website and now you can get loads more real world goodies at the VALVe store.

What would you do if you won a Golden Wrench? Well WingspanTT plans on burning his. "Why?" I hear you ask: for the Children, of course. WingspanTT joins the normal cast of KritzKast to discuss this and the rest of this week's TF2 activities. There's two mods for TF2 that may spark your interest and Postman Pat escapes his cage again.

If it's not a new map, a class update or series of buffs and nurfs it'll be community created content or another hat. It's difficult to keep track of everything so we are especially pleased to have the head administrator for the community controlled Official Team Fortress Wiki as our guest host this week. Smashman keeps us on a hard diet of Fact Muesli and off the fattening Chocolates of Rumour wh...

What we learned in this show: Saxton Hale either lives inside the internet or is the internet itself. Scouts should be made to drag around a whale Having a live audience means lots of cheering and ginger jokes KKC2 was brilliant KKC2.5 will happen at PAX West A group of people playing along to the KK drinking game will get through a lot of beer, fast.
