    Have a question/s:

    • How many of the voted PC/Consul games are going to be played at the lan?
    • And was their any disscussion about advertizing via napkin dispensers in UC and Doston?
    • Any word on local sponcers? C.D. , Nexes, or E3
    • Any word on server upgrade

    1. All the remaining people voted on the console and pc games. The votes each game got is by their name; the games with the most votes will be played.

    2. No, we ran out of time

    3. See above

    4. Waiting for an e-mail from networking to get the process moved forward.

    #55176

    i understand the numbers are the votes, but are we taking the top ___ # of votes?

    AKA: how many pc games are we playing at the lan, how many consul games are being played? assuming we arnt playing all 10 PC games and all 18 consul games.

    I believe the top 4-5 PC games, top 5-7 console games; the # of console games will be up to the console prez and console VP; the PC ppl will decide how many games we can do. We usually have time for 4 definite games with 1 throwaway game that we schedule at the very beginning but cancel if people/networking are not ready in time.

    As far as local sponsors go, if you are interested in approaching the Nexus again I’d be willing to chat them up. I usually end up there at least once a week or once every two weeks.

    #55192

    Sounds great guys! Would’ve been there if you hadn’t scheduled it over an already existing event 3.

     

    Also, its Castle Crashers and not Crusaders :P.

    We’re doing the top 5 console games. So I think there’s a tie for that fifth spot. I’m sure Shingi and Kaz-Ka will make some sort of official announcement soon.

     

    Oh yeah.. don’t forget Bitey’s Madden-esque comment. “It’s the people going in that fills up the room.”

    Ephriam if you would list which games won after the list of the votes Id appreciate it.

     

    I edited the minutes to include winners, but it may be inaccurate, as I don’t know how many PC tournies we will have. Let me know if something is screwed up.

    no thats not correct cause the SC tourney will be run alongside the FPS tournaments I do believe.

    and in which case I think UT2k4 deserves the nod because its deathmatch and its nice to not play 3 valve games.

     

    EDIT: Last 2 posts have been approved by DeviantSyntax. See minutes for updated game lineup.

    I’ll at least be able to play Team Fortress 2.

     

    Which means I’ll need to practice. And actually bother to update it…

     

    And we’ll probably need to discuss whether we’ll be allowing all that new fangled stuff in or not.

    I see no reason why we couldn’t allow it as its now a part of the game. Kinda sucks tho for those who didn’t unlock the new stuff. At the same time I think we will do like we did before and do a limit of 1 per class so no team should really be at much of a disadvantage.
