Some quick mumble FAQ's *by Magus*
Why the fuck would you use mumble?
You have much to learn! Mumble is widely used for it's lack of latency and voice clarity. In the competitive scene, ventrillo isn't utilized as much due it's latency issues. Mumble is also extreme easy to use when spliting/picking teams.
Now where the fuck am I supposed to get this bumble thing?
Don't fear! I'll provide you with links you lazy Rookie!

Great, I downloaded this random piece of software, and am completely ignorant as to how I am supposed to figure this damn humble out!

Step one: Install mumble. If you have issues with this, there's one easy solution: Throw your pc out the window. Then start over.
Step two: Launch mumble.
Step three: Set up your configuration before you join a server and deafen everyone with your breathing. Run the audio wizard located on the "Configure" tab. Now, most importantly:
Step four: Go to "configure" then select "settings". Now, on the bottom left, you'll see a box that says "Advanced". Select it. Now, make sure you have "Audio Input" selected. Look 1/3 of the way down and find "Trasmit". Click the drop down and select "Push to talk".
Step five: Select the "Shortcuts" tab in the settings interface. Now, click add. Set a key, then where it says "function", select "Push to talk"
