I thought you were going to be the MeleeMania button pusher. :?

I believe it's being saved until just before the event so it's new and exciting to everyone :)

That is, unless, you were one of the lucky people who were on TV10 when it was accidentally added to the votelist and played for a few hours :P

Ah, well, I figured it might be easier for the person doing to announcements to synchronize that better. I could still do it though. I've memorized the location of the extra announcement buttons, so that's a plus. (they're organized from most to least useful)

Huzzah! I get to be a staff member! Assuming I don't pull some sort of crazy stunt in the blender. Mwahahahahaha.

I have no chance at this.

But then again, that's half the fun, isn't it? I'm in.

Ubersaw included or Bonesaw exclusive?

Since there's such demand to be in this MM, I suppose that SourceTV is out of the question.

There is something wonky about SourceTV. It's not because we don't want it. ;)

I do not believe there are limitations. Bonesaw may be the best choice as it swings faster.
I have a butt and you do too. Let's be friends.

KRG is correct. You may use either the bonesaw or the ubersaw.

Some people actually requested that we allow the ubersaw, even though it's slower and you won't get to use any ubers. If someone uses it all the time and is used to the rhythm of it, I can see where they would want to keep their "groove".

From what I've noticed in my experience, the ubersaw has a better chance at instantly fatal blows.

Still, the loss of speed is a critical one and people with bonesaws can exploit that.

... choices...

Yeah, I think if you play a lot of Medic and are used to the ubersaw, you should use it. Otherwise, I think the bonesaw has the advantage.

Another reminder for those who are already in MeleeMania - don't forget to e-mail me your theme song! Otherwise you're at the mercy of the MeleeMania team.

Also, PM some interesting trivia about yourself to abiscuit. Fun Fact: players with Fun Facts are 75% cooler than those without Fun Facts.
