You find yourself in an empty temple. Where there were once ornate sculptures of heroes and tales of valor etched into fine marble, now you find piles of rubble and a fine dust that finds its way into everything. Where you would once see the stars dance in beautiful rhythm as the sweet aromas of petunias and lilacs lifted you to a wondrous place you had never before known, now you find only clouds and compost. Where once streams of clear water meandered through a beautiful valley as if nature itself was urging the beauty of your soul to sing with it, now you find only cracked dirt lightly salted by tears.

*snap*



This is the state of competitive FPS games today. An entertainment sector devoid of creativity and looking to find ways that make the game easier while maintaining the illusion of difficulty. A community unwilling to try with a low interest in outperforming their peers. A medium that has remained stagnant since the early 2000s. A society obsessed with instant gratification that a game that requires learning and effort simply cannot meet. Mini-transactions that look to gentrify the last frontier of competition.

Against all of this, there stands but one force.

You.

You are the final bearer of the torch, the last bastion of the dream of actual competition on the amazing thing we call “the internet”. Even now, there are subversive elements looking to snuff you out, to drive out players and bleed you dry. You must not let them. You must keep the game you love alive. This...

This is your story


*loud clang that startles you and then cuts itself off midway through to symbolize an unfinished story*

Welcome to Counterstrike: Global Offensive Mafia, a game for 23 players!

Standard rules apply but I’ll list some anyway.
DONT:
Post after Hammers
Post your role PMs
Use Truth or Dare or Encryption or any bullshit like that
Communicate with anyone, alive or dead, OOT unless I say you can
Edit your posts
Talk about Anime. Illegal. I’ll ban you. I count as Anime too so don’t talk about me. I’ll ban you. I’ll ban you!!
DO:
PM me night actions as quickly as you risk doing nothing if you neglect pming me for 24 hours.
Have Fun

I'm going to gently caress up lurkers. Although I'm sure one or more of you may test me on that front, know that I am a man without mercy. By lurking, you will almost certainly be hurting your team and the game at large, and that is going to Make Me Mad. Ask for a replacement if something comes up as soon as you can.

:siren: This game will not be using a buy menu. I have another CS setup that requires too much drat effort right now that will involve that in the future. :siren:

Replacements(?):
1.) Windshipper (1/10/15 or later)

I'll leave the signups open until we're a little bit overfull. I'll take replacement signups as well and if you sign up for that, feel free to specify when you'd be ready by (day 2, 3, etc).

I'm proud of you, Bender. Sure, you lost. You lost bad. But the important thing is I beat up someone who hurt my feelings in high school.
I am incapable of playing fps's. I can't run with keys and look with the mouse at the same time. I always end up staring at the ceiling. I guess what I'm trying to say is....make me serial killer thx.

I also really hoped Diq had setup a private server. I'd probably pitch in a monthly amount for a real private server.

I am getting a lot better on CS: GO thanks to Diqnol's tips from the Discussion Thread. I now try to pay attention at all times where I have my crosshair and setup camp spots where I wait for enemies to move through. I haven't gotten perfect at the 'this is where you put the crosshair to get a headshot' stuff yet, but I'm working on it.

I also am getting better at using grenades!

Diqnol
May 10, 2010

Grenades are also very important but they aren't something to honestly focus on while you're learning. They can very easily get you killed or cause you to waste money so my advice is to only buy smokes for now and put them in places where enemies have to run through. If they have to run through smoke at, say, long A on dust2 and you're watching it, you have a huge advantage.

Never push through smoke unless you're flashing the poo poo out of it with a full team.

How do you dethrone an AWP guy without flashes/HEs? Like on dust2, how do you take long A if they have an AWP and you don't unless you can get a flash in?

Frankly, you don't, but it depends what you mean. AWP guy watching doors at long can be beaten by a good T spawn location; you get there first and thus have the advantage. You can also quick peek him to bait his shot and then push while his gun resets immediately after. If you mean an awp on A site, you have to outshoot him regardless. Always smoke the crossing between long A and A site if you're pushing that way, btw.

Flashing "right" to beat that awper involves you running out as a teammate throws the flash; that is to say, before the flash detonates. You also have to run out backwards. From there you abuse your mobility advantage and pray he misses or you hit.

Interesting. I didn't realize that T strats might be kind of dependent on spawn location.

Well, that's kind of advanced because you have a single shot to beat him with. Ymmv
