Jesus Christ on a crutch, it's SO FUN. It's completely insane with all the spells. I found a YT vid with all the new voice lines, and they're great. Also, the Magical Mercenary and the bird heads got new lines too. I'm so happy I'm gonna cry.
New voice lines from the mercs-

New lines from Redmond and Blutarch-

Magical Mercenary Lines-

Bird Head Lines-

Anyone know what this does yet?

I see some of those voice lines ending up on the donor list.

First item I got a hat, and I really like it. When having heavy and hes eating the sandvich even the hat chew too. And I got a book (lvl 1) now with 3 pages of spells, dont really know how many your able to get. I got 2 pages of one spell and 1 of another so are a bit confused about how it works. And some critsandvich gameplay first hour after the update.

Some thoughts here about TF2 Halloween events.

It's interesting that this event doesn't feature a boss like the others, and instead fosters a more competitive atmosphere with payload race. Not saying I don't like it, but it's different from what I expected. I love all the items they added, but prices are insane (from what I've heard), with one person selling a Spookey (cmon Valve you had the chance) for 2 normal keys. I wish personal Halloween gifts appeared more often, because there are so many cool items (102 to be precise) that it's hard to get the ones you want (pssst that means give me the Magical Mercenary and the other bird heads). I really wish that the Magical Mercenary and bird heads were year-round items, though. Sigh. I want to be Medimedes forever...
On another, slightly unrelated note, why do people kill you if they see that you're trying to kill the boss and not shooting at them??? Seriously, I actually got so fed up with this one heavy-medic pair killing everyone who was trying to kill Monoculus that I rage quit (I'm not too proud of that, but whatever...). The only reason they had 5 dominations and topped the scoreboard is because everyone else was too busy with Monoculus to bother killing them. I usually don't see this on the Merasmus map or Mann Manor, but only on Eyeduct. I wonder why.

Overall, I'm enjoying Scream Fortress 2013.

I'm confused, i have 8 pages of audere and nothing else... is that supposed to happen? O.o

[Sanic-X]

Sorry, but I don't know what the titles of the pages mean. It may have something to do with how rare they are.
