yes.... way too long. *sigh* i miss the glory days. 

tonight then?

I will be on. Select the blue team when you have the opportunity. I have heard the BLU has a small advantage on almost every map that is a mirror image map.

What is interesting, though, is the advantage team Blu seems to have on maps that are mirror images of each other. Also, why so few Medics, people? It's fun!

OMG. Look at that assists graph:

Thanks for that great and interesting link... Bravo for you!  I cannot figure out why RED does so poorly, though... I was looking through the maps in detail and there is really nothing that significantly different about the two sides of the symmetrical maps.  Weird.  I wonder if BLU tends to be the team with a numerical advantage more often when there is an odd number of people on the server.  I know I have always preferred BLU, although I can't say why.

We always go BLU if it is available.  Have had some funny moments where we ended up on opposite teams though...  The other night we were both soldiering and ran into each other in the spawn lobby area on 2fort.  We both shot at the same time, both critted, both died...

Lets assume (for now) that it is not the map even though that is what it looks like. What are the other differences between the teams? I think it is easier to tell if a blue person is on fire then if a red person is on fire. You can see the underlying color better when they are blue. That means the blue medics can recognize their on-fire team members better.

Is one color more vibrant? What I mean is, is one color easier to spot and then lock on to from a distance?

Would make an interesting study . My best guess would be Red stands out better than Blue , easier to aim at . *shrugs*.

Yes I did , Its easier to shoot @ reds than blu's as the reds are easier to spot , so the blu have a slight advantage , so they have more wins .

I heard something about the BLU team having a "cloak" function even for their non-spies... I think the key is F10 or something like that... 


  (WARNING: On the off chance that anyone on this forum doesn't know this, F10 quits the game in TF2... Do NOT actually push it!)

It's much more entertaining to let people find this out on their own...oh and this is already an old joke with us

Figured it was... don't know why it seemed funny to me again in this context, but it did!
