On November 14th, TF2 community member and contributor Miggy had passed away. Miggy was notable for his contributions towards anti-cheat efforts including during the LMAOBox ban waves, as well as the founder of the TF2 Florida LANs (FLan.tf) as well as the Ferocitygaming clan.

A message was posted to r/tf2 with the following details regarding Miggyâs passing and his struggle with terminal cancer:   

Hello, my name is Soxxie. I am in the former owner of the APP servers and a contributor to the Ferocity Gaming Community. I’m sorry to say that I’m here to tell you that Miggy passed away this evening at at 10:15 EST November 14th, 2017. I spoke with three members of his family not long ago who told me he died peacefully surrounded by his loved ones.

Miggy had been fighting a very hard fight against cancer for the last three months. In the last few weeks, he was diagnosed as terminal and sent home from the hospital into Hospice Care.

Miggy was a community server owner, contributor, an anti-cheat mod, and the developer of the anti-cheat sourcemod plug-in IntegriTF2. Please remember the compassionate and amazing person he was. Anyone who was close with Miggy and would like to send their condolences or message to his family, feel free to add me on Steam. You can also post them here. I will make sure they get to the right people. 

Update: His family is planning his service, they hope to live stream his service. And are planning a memorial to honor miggy’s online life.

There is a UGC League thread for Miggy here. The aforementioned r/tf2 thread is here, and a Teamfortress.tv thread here. 

Our condolences go out to Miggyâs family and friends. Miggy: thank you for the work you have done for competitive TF2 and TF2 as a whole, and the people in this community whose lives you have touched. Peace out, ayy lmao.
