If you're looking for maybe a few more things for people to compete in for fun and maybe some small prizes maybe you could put a few flashgames on the intranet the day the LAN starts? Top scores would recieve some sort of small prize after a time limit to get scores in.
-
I have two other suggestions, both for BF42. One could be a big snipers only battle. Set the server up for team death match for maybe 2-300 kills (depending on how many participate). Once one team gets that many, the game is over. The top scorer wins. One catch though, only sniper kits ;)
It could be held on Battleaxe to ensure a small area and plenty of fighting! If you've never done snipers only on a map, then you've missed out on some fun times.
Another suggestion also includes snipers. For this one though it'd consist of a two man team, one sniper and one artillery. The way to win is for one artillery to destroy the other artillery first. The two snipers can kill each other and the arties can kill the other team's sniper but the only way to win is to destroy the enemy artillery with your own. The sniper has to be on foot and can call out artillery strikes to try to win. This one can be held on many maps (Battleaxe and Battle of the Bulge would be two good ones).

So I guess that's a no?
-
Sorry, why didnt I see this thread??
I think the reason we are looking for games is to get people talking... while those ideas are fun... they don't encourage or foster socializing.
-
Well, maybe we could at least get a snipers only match to go on, just for the hell of it. Maybe have a TS or Ventrilo server for people to talk smack :D
-
I do believe there will be a TS or Ventrillo server... the sniper thing... not sure about... IM me some time and lets chat about it
-
Crap, guess I'll have to reinstall an IM program on my machine :P
-
Nah, no need to install anything. We've got everything you want right here:

Whole new reason to dust off my thumbdrive.
-
UT2k4 CTF or TDM would be alot of fun
-
Maybe we could all get up and do the Hokey Pokey at random intervals!!!!woohoo. now that socializing at it's best.
-
I'm just hoping there'll be a little more interest in BF42 this time during free play. It was pretty much dead after the tournament ended :sad:
-
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 intend to have a ts server up...
there was one running last time, but I think only one team used it.
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)

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.

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)

Before this tanks I want to give my suggestion, blind mans tourny? I think you get the idea.
-
veltrillos licensing still sucks

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.

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.
