Didn't the update mention that it's accurate like a sniper rifle at long distances as well?

Yeah...Which I assume means there's literally no inaccuracy (1-pixel crosshair essentially).  Which seems cool and uncool.  Uncool because of the aimbotters, cool because it'll be so obvious and they will get owned.

Duke: I don't really like the demoman, but I find that I'm usually in a lot of situations where I need to be a demoman. So it's a love hate relationship of sorts. I don't like him, but I need him.

At the moment, day 6 is still up--but about once every 20 refreshes (soft refreshes, no need for ctrl-f5 even) you'll see a jar of Jarate sailing into the picture at the spy's head.

Bastards.

 Jarate is out!

 And I must say, I might like sniper a bit more after this. Soldier is starting to look terrible as a class.

 I'm laughing my ass off. And cheering.

 Although the four-sniper team in every match now is getting a bit annoying, this will be an interesting few weeks of spy vs. Sniper update.

I was initially appalled, but the Jarate actually sounds pretty useful.  Who can pass up a legitimate reason to throw jars of urine at your teammates?

That would be exactly what I'm not looking forwards to.

Snipers sitting huddled at the spawn cabinet all round, chucking jars of pee at their teammates like there's no tomorrow.

Re: Team Fortress 2: "Surprise" Free weekend starting soon!

Like the title says, there's a Free Weekend coming up, pre-loading is possible through here.

I'd like Day 8-blog post and the update now, but probably Valve will take it's sweet time and release them in the early hours of Friday for me, so the point I finally get to play is still, at minimum, 12 hours away.
