Info

I'm a west coast U.S. player who formerly mained Scout competitively. When I pub, I usually mess around with other classes, and I prefer no random crits or damage spread. My longest-running team was Perplex. I'm a long-time reader and lurker on Wikipedia, was a moderator on the old, unofficial TF2 Wiki, was an administrator on the Official TF Wiki prior to the user group restructuring, and am now a moderator.

My main interests on the wiki are mechanics and weapon statistics, policies and guidelines, usability features and formatting, game options and configs (scripts, huds, cvars, etc), and competitive play topics. Areas in which I'm noticeably less-than-informed include cosmetic accessories (hats), Model Viewer image creation, and translations.
