I'm going and I'm volunteering to help run an SC 2v2 competition. (Eric you up to help?)
I'll also run a CA knockout if there is interest, quite possibly something a little different this time...

This time we wont have a problem with getting kicked out early but I still envision people getting hideously twisted and going asleep etc... mmm hotdogs ala FTI would be good too!

Hey, I know, we can gather results and plug them into the ladders too to give them a kick start. People can just report wins and losses to me and I'll create profiles for them and plug them in. That way they are setup and ready to go with some data behind them.

Wotchall think?

DeV.

Wyverne

of course its a pity we cant make it, but still

ask before ye take it

Cake Fiend

Call me a newbie, but I've never been to a LAN yoke b4, so I'd appreciate a birrov info if anyone could be ar$ed...

1. Is this a bring-yer-own PC yoke? if so, do I need a network card? if so, how much would a suitable one be?

2. Will it be packed? there seems to be a fair few posts from clans already who say they'll be there

3. Would it be worth going, even if I'll probably get my a$$ whupped?

Cheers

It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye.

Koopa

ill give you a suitable network card for £20

100mbit pci

El_Presidente

Yes go its class.

You bring your own PC or share with someone else.

Dont worry about getting your ass kicked, its not like we will laugh at you for loseing (well maybe a little)

SHADOW

Dont worry m8...it'll be a great laff..
Like you dont want to be 1 of the guys who don't go and then will regret it after when every1 else is talkin about it.
