that would be great bec that is mainly all i play but if the internet doesnt work when halo 2 comes out i will scream
so someone keeps messing with the packet shaper or the problem was never fixed, it was just a coincidence. Oh well school is almost over so w/e but when you cant talk to one person in a pre-game lobby without lagging horribly something is seriously wrong…..
well it appears that my teammate cant go either. We can team if you want Oh Malley becuase im almost positive my teammate is not going to show.
well halo was supposedly fixed like 3 times….. so we have told him but the problem just keeps getting worse and app the packet problem only barely works for maybe a week or so. and why did my word that rhymes with hissed get “censored”?
i have never heard of that but i just hope the internet is fixed bec this is rediculous…..the internet has gone from bad to “i think im just going to go to sleep bec i know the internet will be as slow as dial up.” So if it is not fixed by next year im gonna be even more *edited*ed and im not sure i can be
yes i hope it gets better bec this semester is much worse then last semester and if the internet gets fixed i will consider coming back here next year. I would leave bec the tv never works, there is nothing to do in cullowhee and the internet is always horrible. So if the internet gets fixed i wouldnt mind coming back here
ok that sound good. it will be a little shorter then i had hoped but it will be a vast improvement from last time
yes it is but i have either not known about the mmeetings(i dont ever go to the main page) or they are at a bad time. Well i have given my 2 cents…for whats its worth. Im just trying to make the console gaving fun. Everyone that played in the last lan knows that the tourneys were not as fun as they could have been due to short time restrictions. So this is the best way for consoles. As i have said before cross gaming (console to pc and vice versa) doesnt have too often between pc’s and xbox’s. So why stagger the times? If we want the console portion of the Gaming Club to grow you have to accomadate for it. I am the only person who have even tried to set up the xbox section gaming club to be something. So if you want it to be a big part of the club you have to figure out what works well. Im just stating what i have seen from playing in several tournies and over seeing tournies. So do what you will but this is the best way that i can see this happening.
3 hours for food? does it really take people 1 hour and 30 minutes to eat one meal? it usually takes me at max 30 minutes….we are not playing a sport lol. Well also the cleanup doesnt take 2 hours…anyway to get off that. I have noticed that those who played in the halo and gears did not play wii bowling or ssbm, i could be wrong. Why do we have to stop for so long to get food? Most people get the food and then continue to play after 20-30 minutes. So why would we not be able to eat? We dont have to miss eating…..i am also not forcing them to do anything…i am wanting this so we can ahve fun playing…have 1 5 minute round is not fun…..its almsot not even worth playing. We want those who play to have a fun time and be able to have enough time to do that in. We had wayyyy to much free time last time which we should have used for tournament play. Starting the tournies so late made some people leave and having them shortened to 1 5 minute round didnt help either. So i can see free time as being important but we dont need to have 6 hours of free time. We can all play games with people over the internet all the time but we can get together with 20 or more of them very often and duke it out in tournament play. So do as you wish seeeing as you set the times but that is my 2 cents and i know we will have enough time to play both gears and halo. Gears might be slightly less but i have seen more people playing halo in the tournies. Many people sign up for gears but not many people actually show up to play so mainly all of the people who participate in the tournies are the one who are sitting at the consoles the entire time.
i thought we already decided a while ago to make the hao at least, to last through the duration if the time the lan goes through. As some of us know 1 game of 5-10 minutes for each round isnt very fun. So if we would like the people who just go to the lans from consoles to have a good time we need to have it set up so they can have a good time. Most of the time the people who play pc dont go to consoles and vice versa. There are a handful of people who do both but not more then 2 or three actually play in the console tournies. So we can have it be 3 hours but as i have stated countless times the consoles take much more time and i know they have 1 hour more but even with that we have to shorten it alot. Let say we have 8 teams (16 people) if we did 10 minutes for each round and we play best of three. It would take a minimum of 5 hours….If it was single elimination with only one 15 minute round and it is best out of one then it would take 3 hours and 45 minutes. So the only way we would fit this in would be to have one round, single elimination, best of 1 game and a 10 minute time limit. Which is exactly what we had to do last time and that is what people were complaining about. They did not have enough time to have a fun, fair experience. So just run the 360 part of the lan half and half… Halo 2 or Gears for the first half and vice versa. This way we will deff have enough time for both and people will also have time to practice just before the tourney instead of people playing for 5 hours waiting for a tourney to start. Im sure this will give ample time and if someone from the pc side wants to play we can call your name over the speakers to call you over to play in your match. This way everyone can play and if you cant play at the moment we can play another round and wait for you so you can play in designated match. I would like it to be this way because at every lan the consoles have not gotten enough time to have fun on the tournament side. We all ahve fun play free play for many hours but thats not the same as actually having a good time competing so that it is fair for everyone. This is also the exact way they conducted the console tournies at App. They had the halo 2 during some other tournies and if you were playing css or some other game they would call out your name and if you could not play then you couldnt play. The halo 2 tourney and the other console tournies they hold there take many hours to complete. I know this is also new to the gaming club but if you want this is grow even more (more then 20 people) we need to create an atmosphere that is fair for everyone but mainly those who come to the lan for the specific reason of playing consoles. I have also seen that many people that come to the lans for consoles do not come back to play them again. They come and see that the times for consoles are messed up and then i do not see them the next time we have a lan. So if we could come to a great agreement on this then im sure many more people from Western would come and join us in playing some good ol’ games.

Oh Malley and I are going to figure the times for 360 but at the moment id say that 360 needs to be run throughout the tournament. So do not specify a time seeing as it will take much longer to finish these 2
yea i sent you a friend request a while ago…..it took you like 2 weeks to accept it. But the h3 vid doc is soooo sweet. Bubble shields and land mines and two functions of the x button. I think the x button does more but they have not said anything else to what it might be.
Well i canceled my BEVER x2 account so if anyone wants to play anything they have to add me on my AlienPoke account. So when h3 beta comes arround we can play and see what happens.
and the vid doc is fking amazing!!!
Shield grenades…not like in the halo commercial…land mines…slow-mo and all kinds of *edited* that makes me tingle
well at least your dorm works somwhat…..i couldnt even play against some one that was 3 doors down from me
Well i cheked last night and the network is messed up. I tried to play against someone who was in my same hall and that didnt even work
i will try it, might as well. The internet never works well enought to play a good game of h2 online. Hopefully we can get us all of the network to play…..we shall see. If we do it will be me and oh malley vs any number of ppl who want to play us haha
also microsoft is a money hungry machine. They are goign to milk halo for all it is worth and seeing is how microsoft is only a pc and xbox type of company…..why would halo be on ps3? it is their franchise game…..so i cant wait till halo 3 comes out and you get to stare at the ground wishing that it was coming out on the ps3. Also i checked and there is no reliable source at all that say ps3 will be on 360. Not like being on one would make you better anyway hahah that controller is pitiful for fps. If halo did come out for 360 ppl playing with that controller would look like a 3 legged cat compared to everyone playing on a 360.
well playstation has had a reputation for having like 5000 games but not many of them are good….and halo 3 is not coming out to ps3….nice try though. Also the playstation controller is possibly the worst controller ever for FPS. Even a gamecube controller is better fro fps then ps3 controller. xbox controller is ergonomic…..the ps3 is exactly the same as ps2 shape wize. So its a matter of games……graphics do not make something better…..just better looking. No one plays cs 1.6 bec it look amazing do they?…..so whipedy doo if it looks better. So if your going to have an argument that it is better bec it look better…..bec it costs more. So please try to make an arguemt that it is better bec it looks better…….more ppl will disagree then agree.
Also the best selling system is the Wii……and it has the worst graphics of all three. So graphics are not everything…
Well they have good graphics…..but i dont like them. But i do have to say that Resistance was very fun.
well the internet was supposedly fixed several times……apparently nothing was done to fix the problem
