LAN party, anyone?
I was just idley thinking, and I realized that there are a great many references to Counter-Strike on CD...
I am an avid CS fan, I've been playing since Beta 5.2, though there have been some times when I've not played in a while... :( Well, more idle thought... How about LAN parties after every regional, or after Nationals, or even just some other time in the future... Think about it... organized robotics people's LAN parties... Would that not be cool? Well, I'll get back to being bored in class now... Post a reply if you're interested, please. |
I have been pondering taking my computer and speakers(Z-560 THX) to nats, but see no easy way of getting it there. We are flying, and does my monitor and case count as carryons? Also, what if they insist on x-raying the case:eek:
Any solutions? |
HECK YES! LAN-PARTY! Sign me up!
Wetzel, I'm not sure that X-Raying your box would be such a big problem. Of course, if you were really worried about it, you could pull your magentic drives and box them seperately. You could also get a laptop? :) |
Athlon XP 1700+
Soyo Dragon Plus 512 DDR RAM 60GB 7,200 Maxtor HD 16x10x40 Lite-On CDRW 12x Sony DVD GEFORCE2 MX-400 AGP 64MB VIDEO CARD 350 watt power supply (AMD approved) Eagle Aluminum case 19 inch KDS flat screen monitor with Trinitron tube APC Back-UPS Pro 650VA Logitech Z-560 THX Thats why I wanna take my own computer... Besides, my laptop is a paltry 350 PII with a bum LCD.:( How big is the carry on size? I am thing four carryon items. Monitor, case, speakers, massive ups (2 hour). RtCW on the flight down anyone? :D I need to check on who we are flying and their carryon rules...but then I wouldn't get any sleep. |
You silly people, we're not THAT far from you. Tough it out, it's only a 13-18 hour bus ride!!!

Oh Jon, I was reffereing to any team from Va or NC. 116 in this case.

13-18 hour bus ride...to Florida?
We fly to Florida, 10 students (filght and pit) go down in enginners cars on Thursday, the rest bus down on Saturday. If I go on Thursday in a car, then my computer becomes easy.:D /me confuses easily |
Perhaps a huge LAN party at Nationals is not quite convenient, most people would be doubling the amount of luggage they bring, and the fact that, for the most part, peoples' minds will be elsewhere from playing games (besides The Game).
Maybe we should think about organized regional LAN parties after Nationals? |
Im all for it but that will depend on the game im a tfc freak from back in the day cs is a good game and all but i still prefer the control of tfc.

I am a Tribes and RtCW player.
The flamethrower is fun.:D |
I just played the demos for RtCW, but the flamethrower was oh so very cool...
Too many people using it without control in the MP Test, though... It made me sad/angry when one teammate would obliterate me and half of the rest of the team in 30 seconds... |
Even beter than tfc would be diablo.

Thats why I run my own server after the rest of my haouse has gone to sleep...hurray for cable modems, but 6 computers in this house taxes it a bit to run a server... |
I am all to aware of server woes for games...
You get really annoyed when you're LAN partying with friends, and you can't add more than 6 or 7 bots in Counter-Strike without the server getting bogged down... That's the time you know you need a dual Athlon XP +2400 server... :D |
