Hey all!

I've been around since 2015, Server Mod since 2018, Staff through 2020. I've loved the work I've been able to do, but I'm at a point in my life where I'm stretched thin between creative outlets and community management.

So! I'm announcing that, at the end of judging for Guardian Dynamica (sometime around late January, early February at the latest), I will be immediately stepping down from my Staff position.

I will more than likely be inactive around any TF2Maps circles. If you...

A Farewell From Me to You!

Get your popcorn ready! The current RGL.gg NA season is coming to an end! After a hard fought season, only two teams remain in each division to fight it out for first place!

Invite Division finalists Memento Mori and Kids Next Door will be competing for the $1,535 prize pool on Monday, December 7th, at 9:30 pm EST. You can watch the match on RGL.gg's Twitch channel. Don't miss this event! Set yourself a reminder!

Can't be bothered to set yourself a reminder? No worries, RGL.gg will remind you on two occasions: through their Discord server and their newly revamped forums. Those are also great places to talk about the event or anything TF2 related with other players.

If you're a new player, this is also a great opportunity to try out competitive TF2 in the largest NA league. Teams will be looking for players to join them for the next season, coming in 2021.
