    How can we describe this weeks events in TF2? Revealing, Exciting, Enlightening or even Tasty? Actually we can sort of us all of those words. It starts with the Toss-Proof Towel, the latest community item to be added into the game. Also added in were three new strange parts (although one of them is currently unobtainable).

    Then as you venture outside of the update you realize how revealing valve has been this week. Letting us have look at how their office works, Valve have released with Employee handbook. Not only that, But they have also shown us a glimpse into what may be in store for the Meet the Pyro video. Where did this imagery come from? Check out the new portal video and look in the bottom left about a minute or so in.

    The Exciting parts comes in when We talk about the Mixup Up match 4. Which had just finished when we recorded, although you’ll have to wait a little while before you’ll be able to watch it. However you won’t have to wait to catch up with the KLOC event happening over at sandvichfort. OH and of course Kritzkast Distinguished Ducks making it into Div2 of ETF2L’s Highlander league…..not to blow our own trumpets.

    As for Enlightening and Tasty, feat your eyes on these 2 videos. 1 giving you a run down of all of TF2’s lore in 60 seconds and the other of a step by step guide to making a TF2 sandvich cake. Add in your emails and suddenly this become a very packed show. Enjoy.

    Go on, Show us your Strange Parts. By that I of course mean the strange parts that you can now add onto your Strange weapons. Such Strange weapons as the Sapper and Construction PDA. Yep, they both have strange version now available in creates. But to implement it, Valve added a Sapper and PDA slot to the Spy and Engie. Could this be the start of new types of weapons?

    While you’re pondering that question, Take a look at the new Items Making their way into the game this week. The Waxy Wayfinder for the Pyro, and the Scrap Pack for the Medic and Pyro. Want to get hold of them both? One you can by in the store, One is a promo item. Find out which is which in the show.

    However, the Big new this week is the finals of the South African KLOC event, hosted by 16BitTF. Agro even casted the finals with greaver and comedian. Take a look, Its one hell of a game. Just like the TF2-Mixup will be. I know we talked about it last week, but please take a look at it. Not only is it giving money to a very worthwhile charity, But it’s also your chance to play with an amazing group of people.

    Then we have a story for you all. Listen to the show for all the details, But lets just say it involves cookies, Saxton hale and Broken merchandise from valve…….and a recipe for Superglue.
