go go go

 

and ill come this time….and we should make sure we have each others phone numbers 😛

[JBstrikesagain]

lol you promise not to sleep through it?

[gxti]

If last LAN was any indication, I’ll probably be too dead to go to another LAN the next day. Sorry guys, but I think I’ll sit this one out.

[Kuros]

I know I will need sleep after this LAN. These things kill those that run them.

[JBstrikesagain]

ya I know how it is.. they really do kill you but I thought some of you might be hardcore enough to come up, maybe some people not involved with throwing your own LAN.. Hey if your lan wasn’t right before ours I’d come.. too much stuff to do the night before though.

[gxti]

Yeah, we’ll definitely try to make sure that doesn’t happen again

[Phonetically Phamous (dice]

I’d also love to come. but yes it is the next day so i dont think its possable to head out their.

 

-event closes at 2am

-afterparty till around 4am (if your lucky)

-4hrs sleep

-awake at 8am to make teh 3hr drive up

-get their late at 12noon (if thats the same time, i dident see anything posted)????

 

 

so i’d be way to shot. :/ maby next time

 

 

 

BTW: JB nice score with the “(1st place: BFG NVIDIA 7600GT OC PCI-Express Video Card)” Did you guys use club fees to purchest that? or did NVIDA have an extra?

[Akuzan]

lol the halo 2 pic is up there and there will be no h2 lol…..false advertising lol

[Kappamerc]

boo, no source.

 

altho bf2 is nice ^^

[Fascist Flakes (Jagr)]

2 in 2 days? I’d love to but I’ll be too pooped as well .

 

Ew @ no Source. Cling to what is left of 1.6 while you can, soon enough you’ll convert just like 1.5 did to 1.6.

[Phonetically Phamous (dice]

I will go if NoDice goes..and if someone else will drive..I don’t care if I didn’t get much sleep..I’m down..someone tell me their reply in person…LOOT.

[JBstrikesagain]

it starts at 12pm like the usual. We were trying to do source since we did 1.6 last time we had a tourney for CS, but it seemed like we were the only ones pushing for it so I switched it to 1.6. We got the NVIDIA card from NordicPC who got it from NVIDIA at their GeForce LAN in california for the debut of the 8 series geforce. I think that answers all the questions.

[JBstrikesagain]

bumpage for much updated info/sponsors/prizes etc.

[Brian]

If yall had some Source in there I would be definitely come up there and rock you guys raw. Some other folks here might also be willing to.

[Kappamerc]

needs some sauce >.<
