unfortunately, the file extension seems to hate my comp and ends up giving me nothing. can someone help out in changing the .rar file to something simpler for my computer?
@chaos_isnt_here: .rar is as basic as you can get. Use 7-zip to open it, I think it's cross platform, opens pretty much any archive file.

@deanbmmv: and yet my computer has never been able to open a .rar file. actually...I don't think I've ever been able to open a .rar file. I just never really knew what to do with it cause I've never converted a file to that extension. well thanks, I'll try that.
@chaos_isnt_here: By default your PC can't open it, but it's a pretty universal file type, like PDFs; used everywhere but you need to get Acrobat to open them.
See, this is a great opportunity for me to harass y'all TF2 owners that read Kotaku and haven't joined the Kotakuites Steam group (http://steamcommunity.com/groups/kotakuites). We have weekly matches together, just social good fun times, and we're slowly expanding into other games too (L4D, for instance).
C'mon. All the cool kids are doing it. And logic dictates that therefore you have to, too.

@Tyber_Zann:A couple things I should mention... one, this ain't at all my group. I'm just an enthusiastic member. And yeah, I knew about that other group... and yeah, how dead it is motivated me to promote this one.
And CustomFirmware... I don't think we have one, and I personally hate CSS, so there you have it. You can talk to NeoStarr, though, he's in charge.

@Dangeresque: The groups been around for about 2 weeks, recruitment during TAY and we had 42 members when I went away on Thursday. So doubling in a few hours is amazing. Next Wednesday should be immense!
@CustomFirmware: We are looking at getting a TF2 server if we get a nice consistent amount of folks playing. A bit rude to hijack other folks servers with 100 members :P. Current best is 10 folks on at once, but we only had 24 folks at that time.
Guys can sort out their own get together if they want though, so if you find CS:S players in the group give a shout out to organise a match, a few have done this for getting L4D matches sorted.
And while I, Neostarr n MasonvRocks are Admins, it's mostly Phydeuax in charge.
i know they should be doing more constructive things with their time! like reading gaming blogs and posting comments!
or updating their stock portfolio.
@Husher: Yeah, but no, really, you have to be dedicated to put that much work into something as tedious as vectoring hundreds of tiny icons and making them into wallpapers for a multitude of resolutions.

Once I get back playing some TF2 I'll be sure to get in on these matches you speak of

However, they seem pretty much dead. I don't think I've ever played a match, in any game, with any of them. Might have to join yours instead!

I'm not joining until there is a CSS server.

Didn't know about the group... convenient place to advertise it though.
Since I play a decent amount of TF2, count me in.

This is just pure awesome.

I mean, the more the merrier, but I did not expect to be so successful.

...although in some of these you can see the colours don't exactly match up with the background and the icon.

In all seriousness though I'd seriously buy one. I basically have all but 2 of the TF2 shirts :o
