How else can I tell you that your video died?

This is an official announcement to all (12 or so) of you, to be ready for the next Matchmaking stress test at a moment's notice.

We tried our best to put together a party for today's test, but the test was failed with falling colors worldwide.

So next time, if we're all ready, we can get into a match within ten minutes instead of an hour or whatever it was today before the servers crashed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So what do you have to do to be ready for stress?

First, you need to join the Matchmaking Beta Steam Group, here:
http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/groups/tfcompetitive

This is where you go to sign up to get a full Beta pass to play any time, and you'll need to be a member to take part in any stress tests in the future.

Secondly, please get yourself some form of a microphone, and preferably also headphones, so you can participate in voice chat. Because what's the point of making a Comp party if we don't work as a team?

Lastly, ingame voice chat is all well and good, but all the cool calves these days are using Discord, the newest and bestest free chat program on the market today, and I only wish they would pay me to say so.

All you have to do to sign up is click a link to a Discord server, and the signup process literally takes about thirty seconds.

The link to my Discord server is on the front page of the group, but I'll post it again here:

May the crits congregate in your clip and abstain from your abdomen, and your servers always stay cool!
