Suggestion for 150 Man LAN

I don't like ventrillo due to license issues and lack of os x/linux client (ts has no offical os x client, but a nice third party one)


http://www.ventrilo.com/download.php

Tekieb == pwnt

Ok, half pwnt, the linux client is still in development.

Xiphias, you will find (as we've experienced in the past) that people will not be signed up for tournaments until a few weeks before the LAN. I guess people are just generally procrastinators, or they aren't regulars on the site, signup, and then forget about us until the LAN, so they've missed the announcements that ALP was available and ready to be utilized. As you can see, only 26 people are registered in ALP, and we currently have 100+ signed up for the LAN (91 paid). Give it time, the interest will be there.

BTW, not trying to sound like I'm knocking CoD2, just wanted to point out historical trends from previous LANs.
Please just walk away. I don't want to have to stand here and say something so awesome that I'll have to remember it the rest of the day. Thank you!

Delete this post. Move along, nothing to see here.

(I hit quote instead of edit to my previous message and didn't realize it until after I quoted myself, and now I can't delete it myself)

I might get flamed or something but instead of making bf42 a tournament since its not drawing alot of intrest (1 team). Try adding CoD2(not 1v1) incase not enough people sign up for BF42? Also add some Ut2k4 multiplay not 6v6 just not enough people right now signed up. Make it 4v4 teams if more people sign up or come add more slots to teams or something.


I'll skip the flaming and just go straight to the beating  :flex:

Please remember... the games listed are for the tourney's only!  We have multiple servers, and some will be dedicated game servers for non tourney games.

If you want CoD2, you will have the opportunity to play it... same with just about anything else.

We can only hold so many tourney's in the timeframe that we have... so we pick the ones we think please the most people.
Insert witty signature here...

Also, Xiphias, don't forget that there's two months yet until the LAN and from past ones I remember teams not really forming quickly until closer to the date.
