The upside makes this launcher very poplar with newbies, while they don't realize how much of an impact the downside has to their performance. Also, the increased speed promotes hitting people directly, which, while doing more damage, is the inferior method, since you can shoot at people's feet and thus can not only use the splash damage to hit the enemy better, but you can also pop them in the air or throw them around with the knockback to restrict their movement and hit the shots after that more easily. You can still do that with the LL (unlike the Direct Hit), but with the smaller clip you will have less of these follow-up shots.
When you use that method though and somehow manage to do some nice follow-up shots with the LL though, another problem appears. There's three rocket speeds in TF2: Liberty Launcher, Direct Hit, and the rest. If you use the Direct Hit, your whole way of playing Soldier changes, since, as mentioned before, you can't use the splash method very well. Because of that gameplay change it's very easy to switch back and forth between DH and stock speed launchers, where the latter ones use the splash method instead of the direct method. Now, if you use the LL though, there is no such gameplay change. If you use this launcher for a longer time, your splash method and your (twitch) aim will be linked to the LL speed. If you want to switch to any other rocket launcher using the splash method now, like stock, you can't hit anything because your rockets are slower. Unless you keep using stock from then on, and deal with the frustration that comes with that, you can't get used to the slower speed. And since nobody wants to do that, they are basically locked to the Liberty Launcher, since it's the only Launcher with that projectile speed.
There's a similar problem with the Black Box, where the regeneration per hit makes you able to live a little longer without a medic - but by far not as long as when you stick with him, which you obviously won't when you have that launcher. Both of these rocket launchers promote bad gameplay, but because of the obvious and huge upsides, newbies still take these and this start getting used to these ways of playing.

tl;dr use stock

Don't mean to be greedy but this works too. http://tf2.gamebanana.com/maps/167382 (dr_aconian)

Also, can you give us an estimate on when the opening party is?

We had 4 hours or so of fun where we watched suyo mess up his server

Was mine ♥♥♥♥, too? It sounds fine when I test with audacity, but from the echoes I heard sometimes it sounded really crap. And quiet.

the only ones who were annoying were MK and Discord, everyone else was clear.
