1 year later:
 
This thread is still remembered for being the biggest +rep farm ever made... 

Conor has appointed UnSeen as offical owner, however Conor will deal with finances Pepe has had trouble for "not being fat enough" to get a gastric band, as a result, he went on a supersize me diet and now weighs 30 stone and is eligible for band Brandon banned: mods finally realised that being as toxic as he is just isn't right Cheesepuff is appointed official tech admin Hiph0t is jealous Jamie is now called "Twist" Venga is married and is popping weeabo children out left,right and centre with his wife. Chris get put in prison for soberly groping Meg while claiming to be drunk. He's got a five year sentence, he is studying for his SAT exam for when he gets out Wist is Prime Minister Biggles has a kid and wins the lottery, spends £3,000 on manure to be sent to my home address. Pays my mum enough to have a night with her Fluxy is the first kid ever to OD on weed, side effects means his dominant hand has swapped. He is now banging Greek's sister Jak proves to TS that he still has me muted DR4IN comes back, he respected McLovin more than his own father Blyss is in prison

Lmfao RIP everybody mentioned above ^
Here's my attempt:
Substick is now known as :)D::/:(, due to his inability to type anything other than smileys Cereal finally gets Mod then resigns after a week due to the emotional stress After Jamie finally getting his way, gathers are now played on an aim map where rushing is banned and the only guns permitted are rifles Rory returns with a fuck ton of cash from his new job and buys out all of OB's competitors After 12 months of custom bot games, Rhyse finally topfrags Rhyse receives a VAC ban Chris Lord appears on X-Factor, sings Les Mis out of key, then tells Simon Cowell that his opinion is invalid Kriss creates a map to honour the late Pepe The Frog, a valued Senior Mod who died from blood clots as a result of his obesity.

Weezy's English continues to get worse despite having spent more time with English people. Doctor's begin to suspect incredibly early Alzheimers, this new form is called Autzheimers.
 
Brandon throws for my team in lol 2017 tourney

Ok here is mine.
 
Venga and Jak own a youtube channel with over 1 million subs, Most of the videos are from silver matchmaking games. Fluxy is yet still with the greece girl after many break ups fluxy asked her to marry her, she declined, leaving fluxy desperate and being a bonghead 24/7 Brandon is no-more with us after a matchmaking game where brandon would ranked up from supreme to global wich he lost, after that he lost all connection to the internet. RJay is member after 16 tries. Keji is still around, he sometimes joins teamspeak but refuses to speak english and will only talk french.  
 

So, this week pretty much marks my fourth year since I joined OB and each year when this time comes around I like to think what kind of situations or interesting things have happend in OB since the last year. Changing in owners, VAC gossip, cyber relationships, le epic trolls, new servers, Mods/admins who go off the rails....alot can happen in a year and OB does look slightly different every August imo. But then I was thinking, instead of looking back, why not look forward...what is OB gonna look like in August 2017???  Here are my thoughts:
 
Chris Lord admits he got something wrong, him saying "I guess I was wrong then" gets soundboarded and becomes the hottest meme of 2017. Jame and Venga are finally given an official HR section on the forums and a channel in TS where they can deal with most of the community's personal grievances giving Unseen a chance to concentrate on being owner.   Unseen did the deed (assassinated Conor in his sleep, took control of OB)  At a meetup in Essex Mintlou and Jaydog finally confess their deep seated love for each other, get it on, 3 months later have a truck themed wedding, its very nice but no one goes... Babbymonkey returns after many years, expecting most to have forgotten who he is, unfourtunatly this isnt the case and he doesn't stay long as every post he makes on the forums is quoted and replied with                    ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ﾉ RIOT ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ﾉ Brandon becomes one of the first OB mods to die on duty, doctors believe he had a stroke that killed him instantly, some say this was a direct result of someone changing their name to "Brandumb" during a gather.  All CS gathers are played exclusively on CSS just like the good old days, this is due to CSGO being ported to Source 2 during 2017 which came with the following "improvements": Sprinting, a perk system, grenade launchers and space battles. Biggles heads the "Close Minigames 2017" petition.  Lewis leaves OB to pursue his CS pro career under the name "The Rutland Monster" but is later banned from all CS major tournaments by valve for his repeated typing of "nice eco team" "oops wrong chat" during all his matches.  What else do you guys think could happen to OB in 2017? 

Fluxy can no longer perform in any cs game without smoking 3 blunts beforehand, any gather attempt must be preceded with a warning to fluxy to smoke his joints - flicks will follow
Gaffer has had another kid, first one was eaten by zeus
After the assassination of conor, pepe has delved into months of overt depression, eventually fleeing outbreak 
cheesepuff finally gets moderator
In a miraculous turn of firsts, Moderator CQCOD makes a post on the forums, and lupha plays his first game of proper cs
Sovman has been VAC banned 
Rachel turns 9, at the big birthday bash, chris lord drinks too much and cheats on jess with meg
With lewis back at university, brandon has deranked down to high MG2 / low MGE
 

This is happening a lot more often now people are applying for member way too early (i did it too ;P) you need to integrate more with people not on the jailbreak server.
Maybe the need to be stricter rules on for applying for member 
I don't want it to seem like i'm taking this out on you because i'm not but it has happened  a lot so i just wanted to mention it
if you get more active on other platforms you will have a better chance at member
Good luck in anyway

The lazy - not wasting 30 mins of my life on a 14 page online test to post 2 words on this thread

Hey all
As was mentioned a few weeks back after we picked a set of moderators, we left the moderator applications open to see if we would pick up any other staff. As usual, we would like to make it clear before we announce who has been chosen that if you haven't been picked then that doesn't automatically mean you aren't good enough to become a moderator. If you wish to know further details about why you have not been chosen then senior staff will be more than willing to tell you in person. As it has been for the last week or so, the moderator applications are now closed.
The last moderator we have chosen during this window of applications is:
Surf Focus | Sovman
Congratulations to Sovman, we welcome him to the team and wish him luck on his trial.
All the best.
The OB Staff

I think whatever it is it'd be cool to incorporate a multitude of game(modes) because that is what the community has become.
Problem with that original video is it limits the intro to jailbreak -though we were playing many other games at the time too.
Outbreak is a gaming community where we can all play diff multiplayer games together, that's probably what a lot of solo gamers are looking for, a bunch of chill people who they can play many games with in a group.
Could have some sort of video of funny moments with scenes from:
-Surf, Jailbreak, Competetive CS, GTA, AOE, l4d2 etc.
Obviously if the main goal is populating the servers stick to something surf/JB based, but the above idea would get people involved in TS, forums and an influx of members.
 
How it'd work:
Now this is obviously a complicated idea, and from years of playing jailbreak and realising how hard it is to just get 14 people organised into two teams, it is probably unlikely. But with enough coordination, and choosing people who are known to not be retarded, it could get done. 
(presuming there is no rush to get this video done, since the last one was like 4 years ago)
Sunday 28th August:
7PM-8PM: 10v10 on the Surf Server (Speaks for itself)
8-9PM: 1 Hour of Jailbreak (3 wardens, 17 prisoners, swapped out each round to give everyone a chance at wardening)
Sunday 4th September:
7PM-8PM: 2 gathers on at once
8PM-9PM: 1 hour of AOE (2 or 3 separate games, recorded by one separate event organiser)
Sunday 11th September
2 more hours of 2 separate games of whatever community sees fit
 
All of the above is recorded by some kind chaps who are organising this event, with the teamspeak communication (KEY)
 
 
-This would give us hours of footage in such a short space of time, but provide a valuable insight into how our community operates, most likely provide lots of funny moments, from a variety of people in Outbreak. It's an idea striving for more OB-naturalé rather than the common scheduled event like the shown example, which personally I find too fake and cringey, albeit funny.
-At the end of the session - gather for instance, 2 or 3 funny scenes from each game and make it into a short 3 min video with some cool background music
-Games are obviously open to change, create a strawpoll of perhaps 15 games which you think OB plays the most, then have the option to vote for 6 games which will be played over 3 weeks.
-Benefits of both sets of games: Jailbreak and surf - everybody in one game, other games - 3 different games going on at once, tripling amount of funny shit to happen
-I highly doubt nothing interesting will happen, with 20-25 people playing 6 different games for a total of 6+ hours, but worst comes to worst and we're lacking a bit of footage, and shift in some of what we've already got from gathers or W.E
 
 
TL;DR
-People sign up to this event, saying which games they have and are willing to play (as not every1 got GTA etc)
-Over 3 weeks, play the games which our community specialises in - have it recorded with TS comms
-Make all funny shit into vid
-???
-Profit
 
 
Pros:
-Gets a MASSIVE amount of people involved
-Loads of fun, what we'd do on a normal day anyway - but more special :))
-Would be awesome to watch after
 
Cons:
-GL getting this to happen with OB average IQ of 55
 
 

Welcome to the forums 
Talked to you on Jailbreak and Ts alot super nice guy
Its about time you joined forums :)
Hope you enjoy your stay
 
 

I've lost the will to live after reading this^

Hello my name is Sam and i'm from the capital of Denmark, Copenhagen. 
I live with my sister and mom in an apartment. I do not live in downtown Copenhagen but in the perimeter around the city. At the moment im a senior at my highschool going through my last year.
In my free time i work in a hardware store with 3 of my friends. The money i earn i usually spend on ski trips to other contries, i've already been to Austria twice and norway once. Skiing is another thing i love to do and will probaly visit many other countries. 
Other then working i spend a good amount of time on Jailbreak. Im on jailbreak daily around 1-5 hours depending on if i have to work or not. 
I also like swimming in the open ocean. There is a bridge not far from where i live that we jump of in to the ocean sounds silly but it is quite entertaining. Other then swimming i ride my bicycle alot, about 15 km(9.32 miles) 2 or 3 times a week, just to exercise.
I also do ALOT of dumb things, i've had to run from security guards a couple of times where i did not do anything wrong. And in the week where i did not play jailbreak i got myself arrested(Quite funny story) :>
I also like to edit and record videos i use adobe premier pro to edit videos and i use a Gopro hero 4 to record the videos.
In my futrue im looking forward to go to college and study natural science. After college i will study astrophysics in the university of copenhagen.
Im mainly play FPS games like CS and COD and i have a beast laptop which can handle these games which is awesome!
Can't come up with a ending so... bye

What a tournament it has been, it wouldn't have been possible without you guys. I want to first of all thank Gibby for letting us use his servers (which he paid for with his own money), all his efforts on the stream overlays and casting etc. I also want to thank Substick who has also done a lot of behind the scenes work which he didn't get credit for, doing the stats and helping organise and plan this tournament in general and I also hope you guys liked the ESL Page which I made myself too. I have to mention that at some points it was very stressful for all the event hosts(sorting out subs etc) and took a LOT of our time (around 3/4 hours each game day + planning); A lot of tough decisions had to be made. I also hope you guys are happy with the prizes which me, Substick and Gibby have donated towards this tournament from our own pocket and community funds. Total money went into this tournament in servers and prizes are well over £100 because we wanted this to be as big, special and give you guys something to really fight for! It is also very nice to see the positive feedback from you guys especially about the production quality, so thanks a lot for that. We have also noted down things that could have been better (e.g team drafts, subs, notices and more stern on rules etc)and we will try to fix it for the next tournament as much as we can.
That said, hope you guys have enjoyed the tournament, I know that as much as we wanted to be part of a team, it was also fun hosting and organising this for you guys. The next ESL tournament date is yet to be finalised, however, I am not sure about the other hosts but I will not be hosting the next one as I have put a lot of effort and time into this and would instead like to take the backseat as a sub or player the next time around to get the player experience instead. 
I also wanted to make a highlight video/videos about some of the best plays in the tournament however, didn't get the time to go and rewatch hours of demos, which is why this thread is kinda delayed (sorry). A lot of players have shown how godlike they can be and some have shown that they can actually play better than their rank eg lkay and finnley. I also have to mention Jamie here who has surprised us all and himself with his amazing casting. Special mentioning Simi for almost taking all the prizes for fuck sake. Anyway, again hope all of you guys all fun and see you guys again in the next ESL!

Substick, Gibby and Gunstar -

They put the most time,effort and money into a single event I've seen since being in OB.
Thanks guys <3

thunder mod app in 3....
jk ty hosts you did an amazing job 

Even though I only played in one match of the tournament, I saw quite a bit of Twitch games and I can easily conclude the same what other people said.
Outstanding job done. Thank you :D

Really well done, I enjoyed watching it all. It is clear that a lot of time and effort went into organising it and it really paid off. :)

I think I speak for the whole community in thanking you guys for hosting the ESL Outbreak tournament. We all realize how much time and dedication it took to host and organize the whole thing and we appreciate you. The tournament overall was fantastically run and a lot of fun. Anyways I just wanted to make this thread because I didn't think you guys have gotten enough love for all the time and effort you have put into it.
SO just know that we appreciate what you have done!
