====== Team Fortress 2 ======
**Team Fortress 2**, also known as **TF2** or **Hat-Themed War Simulator**, is a multiplayer shooting game from 2007.  It has fun character designs and voice acting, beautiful concept art inspired by mid-century advertising, and it's just a good simple funny shootin' game that doesn't take itself seriously!  Its fans are not the brightest crabs in the crab bucket and take the game very seriously.

===== Tempural Timeline =====

  * **2007**: TF2 is released via the Orange Box.  It costs $15 and comes with Half Life 2 and Portal.  
  * **Some year after 2007 and before 2014**: I get into TF2 cuz people kept spamming [[..:yaoi]] in /v/, and they had to make TF2chan to contain the yaoi.  I just liked the yaoi and never played the game.  I start to lose interest in TF2 around the time of "Meet The Pyro", and I scoffed at "Expiration Date" when it came out in 2014.
  * **2018**: Shane asks who this annoying guy he keeps seeing in hentai is.  It's Scout TF2.  So I drew like literally 300 doodles in 2018.
  * **2019**: I give my [[pairings:Scoutspy]] characters the names "Ollie" and "Basile" based off of ingredients on pizza.  I now have custody of them, and refuse to use them in the context of TF2, and use them as [[:characters|MY ORIGINAL CHARACTERS DO NOT STEAL]] and as site mascots.
