      <description>So i tried  making  a server with mods, but i cant host it. I've tried, it could only be 5v5 without major lag. I'm super sorry. I really wish I could do it, but its just not going to work. Ugh! I feel killer bad. But who knows down the raod I might have better luck with it. I'm not going to just give up. I'm going to keep trying, but i cant make any promises. I'm so sorry guys!</description>

      <title>Hey you guys!!!!</title>
      <description>I know everybody is sad about OTG not being a &amp;quot;clan&amp;quot; anymore, but do not cry. I am going to try and make a RTD/RTV server for us to play on. Now you're going to have to give me a couple of weeks. I've never done this before, so please be patient. And if anyone would like to help, don't be shy!!&lt;br&gt;I'll keep you guys updated!!!!</description>

      <title>Retirement</title>
      <description>Probably the last update for a while, so here it is.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;OTG is not dead, but changing how we're doing things. Instead of being a clan, this is going to be just a group of people. What started as a bunch of friends who merged away from MCG is now just a bunch of friends playing some Steam games.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If you're an admin here, you can do what you please to promote OTG, but I won't be doing much. Vulcan and Zach are both doing their own thing now, much like myself. Sure, you will probably see us all online at some point, but the main focus isn't on OTG.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What am I saying? OTG is no longer a clan, just a group of people. There are currently no plans on getting a server, and our website will be down in a few days.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A revival? Possibly, but there are no plans.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks for playing and the support, guys!</description>

      <title>Update</title>
      <description>Hey guys!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For those who didn't notice, our L4D server through NFO is now now. We will have a TF2 server and a L4D server up and running within the next week, hopefully. Stay tuned!</description>

      <title>Updates: Searching for Admins and Server News</title>
      <description>It's been a while since there's been an update for [OTG], so let's get one out there.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We're on the search for a possible THREE new admins. We want a person whose main game is TF2, one person whose main game is L4D, and one person who frequents both. Interested? Shoot me an email at &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:stillxnotxfound@gmail.com&quot;&gt;stillxnotxfound@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Want the shirts done faster? Take our your anger on [[MK]] Vinuash, he'll love you. &amp;amp;lt;3&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;On the 4th of June our Left 4 Dead server will cease to exist with our current provider. This is the time that we will be purchasing a TF2 and L4D server, both LONG overdue and we do apologize for the inconvenience.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Anyway, hope you all are enjoying the Sniper/Spy update with TF2! Have a good one!</description>

There will be a new announcement when they are ready, but in the meantime drop over to Vinuash's steam page and leave a thank you, that is if you are tagged [OTG] or [STD].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Back in a few...</description>

      <title>News, news, news!</title>
      <description>Hey guys!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Many of you are wondering when we are getting our TF2 server back up and running. To be honest with you, we're really unsure. Hopefully before the sniper update, but nothing can be promised right now.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We have branched off into L4D, and the tag for our 'sub-clan' is [STD], for Shut the Door. Have fun with it, and join our server there!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A roster shirt is being created for our clan by Vinuash. You can check out his past creations at &lt;a class=&quot;bb_link&quot; href=&quot;https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.zazzle.com%2Fmonkeyknifeshop%2A&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot; noopener&quot; &gt;http://www.zazzle.com/monkeyknifeshop*&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Want your name on the shirt? Be sure to tag your Steam name with either [OTG] or [STD] by tonight at midnight eastern time!</description>

      <title>OTG's Future</title>
      <description>Hey all!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So, many of you have noticed that our TF2 server has been dormant as of late.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;To make it better for everyone in our clan, we're doing a few changes, some major.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;1. We've switched our TF2 server, which was being hosted through NFO, to a Left 4 Dead server. Using the same IP address you can access the server through L4D. (Bring up console, type openserverbrowser).&lt;br&gt;2. We're in the process of switching server providers as well. Through another provider, a much cheaper provider, we will be getting a TF2 server and a L4D server, L4D not starting until next month.&lt;br&gt;3. With just being told we've converted into a TF2/L4D clan, we're unveiling our L4D tag. The 'subclan' is Shut The Door, [STD]. Tagline - &amp;quot;Bringing a whole new meaning to the term 'infected'.&amp;quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;So, we currently don't have a TF2 server, but that will change shortly. That, and we're discussing some other changes. Stay tuned!</description>

      <title>RTD Disabled</title>
      <description>With the latest TF2 update, something went wrong along the lines of RTD not functioning properly. With that being said, any time someone rolled, the server would crash.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;To avoid crashing, we have disabled RTD for the time being. Once the issue is solved, RTD will once again be enabled.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks for being patient!</description>
