To that I say there's the reset stats button.

Not true. You can reset your stats any time, but you can't get them back if you want them back.

Meh, their stats. Who gives a stuff? Besides if you wanted the exact stats back, go back to the achievement servers and get them back...

Get Natascha, she will make those pesky scouts slower.

if you create a server, make sure someone is ALWAYS gaurding the intelligence. failure to do this could get you pounded into the ground. i usually use a pyro, accompanied by a heavy, so since they both fire their weapons at a constant stream, if one gets backstabbed, the other knows to release the inferno/pelt him with boolets.

Here's a tip: expect a punch in the face from yours truly if you go to an achievement box.

As a pyro, it is YOUR SWORN DUTY to spy check a lot, especially near engineer's buildings.
The compression blast is great for blocking projectiles, trust me, but have a dispenser nearby.
The backburner loses as it gains. You lose compression blast and yet you gain the power to burn people from behind better.
Don't forget, compression blast DOES EXTINGUISH FIRE ON OTHER PLAYERS.

As a medic, always be on the lookout for a "MEDIC!" bubble that is on fire, this means that the person is on fire and needs help.

i pretend to be spy when i have the backburner, and the boosted burning from the back(wut.) like backstabbing.
