12:08:36         @HeK^Work | Caff there was a point while playing snow drift last night where I backstabbed a guy, turned and saw two crit rockets and a crit grenade fly towards me... I gotta start recording replays
12:09:12  Caffeine`muffins | oh you know what we need to do
12:09:16  Caffeine`muffins | John Madden style replays
12:09:19  Caffeine`muffins | like have the replay
12:09:25  Caffeine`muffins | pause at some point
12:09:33  Caffeine`muffins | MS Paint some shit while someone talks like an idio
12:09:34  Caffeine`muffins | *idiot
12:09:41  Caffeine`muffins | then resume the rest of the clip
12:10:01  Caffeine`muffins | like you'd turn it would freeze, circle the crits in red
12:10:50  Caffeine`muffins | Now now now, ya see, people playing spies see crits alot, now these soldiers and this demo have, have, have, fired crits, this is the only sure-fire way to kill a spy
12:11:20  Caffeine`muffins | resume clip of you getting it in all holes from crits
12:11:28        Dtrain323i | now when you get more heavies on the point than the other team, you win the game
12:12:30         @HeK^Work | A game isn't won with scouts and snipers, it's won with heavies and medics. The team with the more heavies and medics will win the game.
12:12:56  Caffeine`muffins | Ya see, the team that captures the most points, is going to be the victor in this contest
12:13:22        Dtrain323i | now when brett farve plays scout, he can usually score points
12:13:52           ZargonX | Heavy's got those big ol' paws!
12:14:15  Caffeine`muffins | Except here, ya see the heavy here on the blitz, he cuts right through the line and sacks farve, BOOM!
12:14:30        Dtrain323i | TUFF ACTIN TINACTIN

Ok, so the more I thought about this, the more I think it needs to happen, here would be the general premise....

1) Multiple people make replay video clips, 15 - 30 seconds long, they can be of epic success, or epic failure
2) We get two people who can do reasonable impressions of John Madden and Pat Summerall
3) At one point in each clip we pause and draw stuff
4) Commentators narrate in a lampooning fashion, and the clip finishes out, move on to next clip


Hopefully this would be easy to edit, don't need a lot of after effects, no music selection, and the onus isn't on one person to make a ton of epic frag clips.

It can be as long or as short as we want, depending on the number of usable clips that get submitted.

What we would need most are two people who can do reasonable impressions of said iconic broadcasters. Any takers?


If we can get to people, we could start amassing short replays almost immediately.

I offer my services as John Madden.

Another thing I'd suggest is a quick music intro. The Monday Night Football music would be perfect.

"well John, when you think about the conditions of this historic tradition-rich map; those being, of course, the thunder, the mountain, and the fences; it certainly seems like a lot of factors working against the BLU Team. Do you think it might go against them today, despite this enthusiastic support-centric starting lineup?"

oh hell yes I'm trying out.

"You see, the team with the most kills at the end of the round captures the point."

Funniest thing I have ever read. XD

I prolly could do John Madden.  Turducken

I have a video I may be able to submit, is it okay if it showcases Epic Fail on both team's sides? (AKA functionally retarded hoovy and a scoot who fails hard at killing a sniper?)

Anyone can submit clips, just zip up the .mov file or whatever TF2 exports and send the little chunk to whomever decides they want to volunteer to assemble the whole thing

At least Valve lets us smash F6 while you're still dead to get the replay.

This sounds amazing.  I think I have a few clips around here, somewhere...

[Live-Free-Or-Pie]

I'll help writing jokes and I guess I could be the other guy

Summerall seems like a southern Mayor Quimby, and I can play the straight man to John Madden

At least activision lets you look at everything that happened in every single game you've played in the past week to get the replay.

[Dr. Zaius]

We gotta use my spycrab video for one of these, too.

Also I would like to be a contender for Madden.

This sounds like the best idea I've heard in a long time.

Might be motivating to get me back into video editing. Put me down for a video contributor and maybe-fucking-not-quite-likely-video editor.

Want beer for the dorm?

[at0m]

hehe, makes me glad I made that quote immortal. I want to see what comes of it.

[KarthXLR]

I wouldn't mind trying my hand at editing.
