You're often trying to get as much information across as possible. You might think it's stupid, but when a lot of things are happening at once and every millisecond counts, just shortening a word with a single syllable is worth it. Everything is shortened to as much as possible. You don't say that an enemy is at "'A' corner", you say "Goose". You don't even say "enemy", you just say a number representing how many you're seeing, direction, and/or weapon, as in "two behind" or "awp window!". And you don't say "grenade" when you can get the exact same information across by removing half of it.

And if you're talking about commentators and stuff, they're usually players who are simply used to saying it like the would in game.

I just read following on reddit:

"It's mm, who cares. The current system of starting the bigger party on T side is good enough"

Someone knows if this is actually true?

Think so. If you have a stack, you tend to start T side.

I can't log on steam atm. Is it down for anyone else (eu)? I was online like 10 hours ago.

I tried checking csgo_dev, but they haven't tweeted anything for 20 days.

Is there a place that I can check if steam is down for everyone or just me?

Yes and there are numerous websites that track it you just have to type the same question in a search bar. Are steam servers down?

Anyway its up right now, it was not up at the time you initially asked.

I didn't really know if the one I found was reliable. As I have never been on it before. But yes it's up now.

They are all generally fine, all they have to do is ping the servers. There are ones for specific games also. Any kid in a networking undergrad class can do it properly pretty much so any search results you get will generally be reliable.

So when looking around a corner the farther away you are the more you see around the corner.
Does this apply to smoke from smoke grenades as well or are they random as fuck/not the same for everyone looking at it?

Don't think so because there are one way smokes where the person that can see more, is closer/borderline in the smoke, whereas the person being seen, is farther away.

Wouldn't say it's random, but it follows different rules.

Angles always work the same way. Yes, you will see your opponent around the corner of the smoke before he can see you if he is closer to it than you. This is just geometry. But like Nagisama said, smokes tend allow for special usage, letting people inside the smoke (at very specific places and placements) see their opponent without being seen yourself.

You got me thinking literally for 5 minutes why the angels are responsible for anything... I just couldn't understand, how spirituality is tied to CS:GO (and it was such a deep sentence!)

One of the guys I play with has a bind for a chat message when he kills people. He would like to know if there is a way to make it appear automatically when he kills someone in a competitive game. I told him that it was very unlikely, but that I would ask. Does anyone know?

I want to stress the fact that I am not the one asking.

Automation in any form is not legal in cs:go, especially not scripts. So no, no chance. And go tell him it's childish anyways. How do you not get tired of spamming something every time you kill someone, which should happen 10-20 times pr game?
