honestly i was skeptic about this LAN since there really not many games i wanted to play and i was kinda mad that resistance, goldeneye and NCAA were voted in, which was b/c no one showed up to vote. I honestly didnt think those were right for the LAN and it turned out i was right, but atleast now ppl know. Though when i showed up i had a blast. I met so many knew ppl and a few i already knew that i had no idea played video games like that. Was real cool!here are my ratings.
+ there were a whole lot of new people there
+ advertising had gotten alot better
+ Street Fighter was a great addition to the LAN
+ thought the new execs did a good first job
– I saw the ps3 leader cuss out the Console VP, which was very un proffesional on the clubs part (well his). If the VP says to do something that console leader should listen.
– One game shouldnt be played on both consoles it was very ineffecient
– Games need to be voted in that will draw more people, not games only a few ppl think will be fun
– More Pizza!
– Better Organization with the schedule
Lets make the next LAN even better!
Sorry I couldnt get more pizza Exile, Reslife only gave us $200 which got us 23 large pizzas. And as far as the console vp being cussed at thing goes, I handled it. Since Street fighter IV was such a big tournament, I decided to help the ps3 leader (because it was his job to run that tournament since it was dual platform and Audyo wasnt there) out and I approved of the way he was running things so the console vp shouldn’t have said anything to begin with. But this will be elaborated on at the meeting, so lets end this discussion for now.

Despite the rather large turnout and the fact that a lot of my close friends showed up (which meant a lot to me personally considering some of the family things I’m dealing with right now), I was generally unhappy with how some of things were run.I personally ran the NCAA 09 tourney, which I was happy to play in, but at the same time it was probably the worst time of the year to play it considering most sports gamers minds are on Basketball and Baseball seasons, thus why I thought there was a rather small turn out. Gears, though not officially voted in, got shafted at the end of the night, and as a result there were a lot of hot tempers that went off in the process. Resistance 2 and 007 were very poor game choices, which was exactly as I had suspected back when I heard they were chosen in the first place.
And to be all honest, despite the fact that I had fun hanging out with my friends, unless things change with the game choices, and peoples mentalities and attitudes regarding said choices, this past LAN will probably be the last one I attend here at Western.
Now you guys know how us PS3 guys felt last year, not even being able to have a PS3 tournament until I came around and turned some heads with the Soul Calibur IV turnout last semester. Now things like Resistance 2 and Goldeneye not doing to great should be an incentive for you guys to come out this Thursday and vote because I remember back in the day when you 360 guys were all for playing only the games that were voted in. And no offense Dark Omen but the LAN isnt just about the 360, bigger selections of games should be played other than 360 shooters and EVERYONE in this club should be thinking about what will draw in a bigger crowed to the LANs other than their own selfish wants (and I mean all of the people that were pouting about Gears, and the whole way SFIV was ran, come on people, think about others and not just yourselves)

we voting in games for the next LAN too this meeting?Actually, yes, we are. Some games didnt go to well for consoles (007, NCAA 09, and Resistance 2) and they may or may not return. And let me go ahead and be perfectly clear on this, when we vote, only 6 games will be played by consoles at the LAN and if a game is not voted in, it WILL NOT be played at the LAN. So bring your friends to this meeting to vote on games.
oh dont worry, that is one of the main things that I am going to address. If you feel I have forgotten to say something Audyo, you can take the floor

Just thought I’d post here and apologize for the internet issues you guys had. Networking gave us the wrong 10/100 switch and the one we got had the security policy for the university datacenter on it. Normally we have a switch with almost no security on it at all.This shouldn’t happen again.
To avoid stuff like this happening again Mitch, I’m thinking about getting our own switch
OMG THEY ARE RELEASIN MULTIPLAYER FOR THIS GAME! IF ITS WHAT I THINK ITS GONNA BE, I SMELL ANOTHER GAME THATS POSSIBLE AT THE NEXT LAN!
Yea, I think it should be the players choice like we originally said. Its only fair because honestly, if you think about it, the only people coming to the LAN that has a Gamepad is Daniel, You, Josh, maybe Robert, and I think Omen (but he says he doesnt like it so I guess he doesnt count). Also, Im pretty sure I’m not the only one that would say that the PS3s controller is much better to use for SF4 than the gamepad (or the 360 controller, but to each his own).
yea, seriously, I agree with Omen. It will not be just gamepads, that will put some people at an advantage over others. And we only have 4 anyway.
Well Ive gotten a good ways in now (Chapter 2-2) but I would be more than happy to go back through it with you in co op mode cause its THAT FUN! And Ill give you some items you havent been able to get your hands on yet pimpn

I dont know, unless they fix the whole online play party system I think RE5 is gonna own all these games. And for the record, God of War III got pushed back to next year (March 10 2010)And next year, God of War III is definitely going to be game of the year.

Yea, I just went to the print shop and gave a good majority of the fliers to Reslife. The fliers they gave me was the one that Daniel about Madden and I have to say, they look great. The one I made is still in the print shop but should be back to us soon. The reason we didnt use Domo’s was because he misspelled Register. Eyce fixed it so I might send it in, Im not sure if we will get it back in time though.
Screw the 360, sell it and get a Wii. And hell, while your at it, make Wii Music your first purchase! It won game of the year on every site Ive been to for 2008! rotfl
Naw, from my experience with the 360, Id say you should get Mass Effect, Soul Calibur IV, Street Fighter IV, and both Gears of War games.
well here is the final product that I am sending to Reslife. Hope you guys like it. And like I said, I will make another for the shooters.

It looks good, but it might be a good idea to have a second flier advertising the shooters.Thats my plan, I figured Id do one for the fighting games and one for the shooters.
Bananarchy said:
I like the font. Any prizes to be advertised?Maybe, if I shrink the font.
MajorMajorMajor said:
maybe to not clutter the page (im assuming this will be printed on like 8.5×11 paper) you could make those pull tabby things and just print on a 8.5×14 paper and allow peeps to pull and remember that waythat way you could add the time/date text and still have it all spread out
I dont know how to do that but its a good idea, Ill give it a whirl tonight (maybe), its been a long day.
Nickname said:
lol all the other “also” games ARE shooting games except NCAA09lol yea.
Ephraim said:
Needs date/time/place.Will do, thanks Ephiram.
Any comments welcome, just let me know what you like/dislike and hell, if you want to make a psoter advertising the LAN or the club, just post it here. well Im going to take a short Street Fighter break, I’ll be back soon to see what you guys have to say.
