Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

well, i think one night we should find a team's halway (with someone thats acutally playing of course) and just set up a huge lan inbetween the 4 adjoining rooms w/ a simple switch and the 4 lan cables going into each room... not hard at all =D... we could easily have like, 10 GCN's and alsmot 30 controllers (seems ubserd hahaha) but the 16 people races would be crazy to have throughout 4 rooms... cant wait... we should do a chat with who can bring what and who would love to "offer" their space in a centerized hotel =D

Team 662 will be there. Rocky Mountain Robotics. Colorado Springs, Colorado

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

You're right, it does seem absurd. It'd be interesting to see though... Probably insanely fun too. ::shrugs::

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

We're at the embassy. I've got a network switch (five port), and probably at least one twenty five foot cable (don't know how long I would need), a controller, I could also check on my floor to see about more network cable and possibly a couple controllers. I doubt I could get a x-box or Halo off of them but who know.

If you want me to bring at least the switch just tell me.

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

Oh boy, I heard about a Double Dash LAN Party at the Omni, count me in! Problem is somebody needs to bring a network hub with network cables. I can bring my GameCube (with DD of course), and two working controllers (I have four, but two of them have busted up joysticks). I need to remind myself to purchase a broadband adapter before Team PINK leaves to Nationals.

As far as I know, F-Zero GX and Super Smash Brothers Melee do not have LAN capabilities. It is a shame F-Zero is not LAN compatible since a Grand Prix Race has thirty racers. That would have been a noble effort if we could be able to do that.

There will be about fifty students from Team #233 heading out to Atlanta. See you guys there!

Re: Who's staying where?
 

:D Team 902 will be staying at the Embassy Suites and will be looking forward to the FIRST experience. We can not wait for April to get here. :p

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

Well, it'll have to depend on how many people have an Xbox, and how many would be willing to bring it down to GA. I guess we'll have to wait until we get a bit closer to National time to figure that all out.

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

We're finding out this week whether or not our sponsors and our school board will pay for the trip. Otherwise, we all have to shell out $900 to go. =p

Ignoring that, what seems to be the best hotel to stay in there?

P.S. Team 25, 1089 and 1403 successfully executed a 4 xbox LAN at the Chesapeake Regional and we'd certainly be glad to do it again in Atlanta. =D Quite amusing to have 150 ft of CAT5 running the length of a hotel hallway.

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

my team (111 wildstang) is staying at Omni too :yikes:

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

341 is staying at the Omni...19 teams so far that are staying at the Omni. PARRTEEYYY!!!! I'm compiling a list of all of the teams that are going and where they are staying...I'll add it when it's more complete.

ATLANTA HERE WE COME!!!

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

121 is at the Days Inn which is less than .75 miles away (so a 15 min walk) to the omni, so ill be there w/ 5 port switch (hopefully) and GC (w/o double dash hopefully i can get my friends) and at least 2 controllers =D (will NOT have extra calbes, only mine, so try to get a cheap like 25-100 ft cable...

will also have 2 xbox controllers in case =D

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

We at 870 are at the Omni

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

This actually sounds like a good idea to update Thursday at Atlanta, and hand out to all the teams for interacting at each hotel. If you want to do this and need help with this, let me know.

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

Yeah, I'd be willing to do the same thing for teams staying at the Embassy.

Re: Championship Who's staying where?
 

Team #107 will be staying at the mariott. I can't wait. :D
