Evo all nighter session?

Owwmykneecap

Thread.

Sairus

I saw that GodsGarden are running a weekend long Evo party event just to watch the stream and play casuals. Legends that they are.

Owwmykneecap

They follow me on twitter. so proud.

xgc still do overnighters?

Naphiel

I saw a sign on the window saying they do today.
Can't remember anything about prices.

Monkeyto

I'm game for this if we can get a good group of us on it. I'll be in work that Monday so if I'm gonna do it, it has to be mega hype and a good crowd.

Linoud

Overnighter wouldn't be a bad idea. I'd be interested in it. I used to book them for my old Gaming Society in ITT, was 25 euro per person for 12 hours from say 9/10pm till 9/10am. I don't know if their prices have changed or not, but the guy who worked there at the time said they were overcharging and to ring him directly. Can't remember his name right now but it was the irish fella. Don't know if he still works there or not but you could ask him in person, might get it abit cheaper than that.

Sairus

I'd be up for this too!

Misty Chaos

This sounds like a plan too if all my chips fall in the right place in the next week or 2

K.O.Kiki

But what's the point of an all-nighter if you can't WATCH Evo??

Jun_DP101

sounds cool

Sairus

I'm sure we could hook up a laptop to a connection somewhere in the XGC, Kiki.
Or watch it on a PS3 there.

I was gonna suggest this in cork but would have no problem going to dublin for it

I'd defo do this in cork but dublin just to watch evo its abit much really?

Sairus

And play games all night with the rest of the Irish players :P

Dreddybajs

This is a good idea, they're definitely still doing the all nighters as far as I know. I doubt watching the streams upstairs would be a problem - we could see if we could have 3 ps3s running the 3 different streams.

I'll shoot them an email about it later.

Dundle

I'd be interested in this.

Nah it's grand. Vegas just to watch Evo might be pushing it though

Nutrient

Sounds like a beast idea, better brush up for long play sessions

We can hook laptops to the TV's using HDMI cables, piece of cake

ladnopoka

Brilliant idea ! i would like to come :P

Dreddybajs

Asked in XGC today and we're on for an overnighter there - more people we get the cheaper it'll be. We can use the TVs to stream evo.

Monday is a bank holiday, do we want to do it on Sunday night? Means the finals would be on.

The Hound

Sunday Night sounds good to me

Owwmykneecap

I'm on for Sunday.

We've got Day of Champions on Sat anyway.

the 1st hardter

Dam my stupid holiday. . . . . . . .

I didn't realise that Monday was a Bank Holiday.

LESS GO.

Sairus

Ooh, I forgot about Day of Champions being that weekend too. Good ****. Weekend of SF for Sairus!

Linoud

Sounds good to me. :] Put me down for a space.
How much roughly would it be, depending on numbers we get, do you know? Like 20 people for my old gaming society was 20 - 25 each for the night. Now keeping in mind that if we got 20 people for this, we're all not likely to be using our own console for the night because of the obvious nature of fighting games, might be abit cheaper than when I booked it for Games Soc, since each person booked then had their own console for the night.

Ry

Im gonna be vague and say maybe.

Dreddybajs

Made a signups thread here lads:

http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056335770

Only put down people's names who clearly confirmed that they wanted a place in this thread so far, so if your name isn't down, post a reply in there.

Linoud: Should be cheaper than 20-25 anyway, I'll know the prices better when I have a rough number of people going. It gets cheaper the more people attend.

Misty Chaos

Could I get a general idea of:
What time to be there for?
What time does it end?

Are there any other specifics as well I should know?

I think it starts at 10pm or 11pm and ends at 9am or so (from my foggy memory). We can meet up and grab food or a pint or something beforehand, whatever suits people.

edit: Or maybe last time it was 11pm-11am?? I can't remember.

Doyler01

Is there any rules on what we can bring into the xcg? Like drink / food.

This gonna be hype

Sign into XBL and we'll beat yo' ass cross-country.

Monkeyto

Imma bring the following:

- Arcana Hearts: Let's go Kiki!
- Pringles
- A torrented copy of king of china town to watch while Tekken is on
- Probably a tonne of energy drinks to get through the night
- I'll also bring the lappy just in case we need an extra screen or if anyone wants to play Melty Blood AC...

Jun_DP101

What time does the food court across the street close at?

Orim

About 6ish I think. There's loads of other places nearby though if you're worried about food.

Dreddybajs

Yeah, last time we were there we ordered pizzas to XGC, food isn't a problem.

Voa

May as well put my name in on it. I'll probably be itching for more once the tournament closes out.

Fergus_

Do we have access to all the consoles with the entry fee or does the hourly rate still apply?
