I also had a question.  Unrelated to the ION kit...although that does sound bad ass as I am a drummer and might want to give it a try :)

My question is regarding Ventrilo.  Will ports be opened up on the network to allow connections to outside Vent servers for the tournaments?  Not a huge deal because I could just host one locally from my machine, but I was just curious.  Last time I went in 2009 it was opened up I believe.

It should be open, but we have a 512 person TS3** server at the event.


**Disclaimer: I do not work for any company that deals in VoIP technology, but I have a DEEP hatred for Ventrilo's Licensing bullCrap. You can run your own little 8 person... But if you want more you have to rent from a company. So I thought at one point we could get our act together and purchase a license... NO! You have to buy at LEAST 1000 seats and PROMISE to buy MORE every year!

Not to mention that Teamspeak 3 is a superior product.

Yeah I have both TS3 and Vent and use and like them both.  Back in 2007 I started renting out a 10 man Vent server for RN Gaming, and then recently I purchased a lifetime 10 man vent from NationVoice for 100 dollars.  I have had no problems with them, but after reading what you posted, that is pretty shady about Vent.  Very true that we could just use your TS3 server, but for private channels and that kinda stuff, figured it would probably just be easier to use ours rather than bug someone else about it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but won't the attendees also be able to create their own private channels on the TS3 server, so if they want to have a private one for their team they can do so.

If I'm wrong, delete this post so as not to cause confusion to later readers of the thread.

You are correct!
They can create and password their channels.
And only event staff would be able to access your channel if you have password protected it. And even then I believe it is all logged so if there is any tomfoolery please inform us and we will take care of it.

Sorry for what? A legitimate question?
Let me tell you I have seen a number of times people hosting their own voice chat even though we have a central one running. It's all in what you are comfortable with we just try to provide everything we can. (Within reason.)

I 2nd this statement despite paying for a vent subscription myself. TS3 supports a higher voice rate and doesnt limit you on users which makes it tits vs vent. If it wasnt the standard in the Worlds of Warcraft, I would of canceled my vent subscription months ago. They can thank WoW for keeping them around for so long

I remember looking back in the old pictures when you wore a kilt to one of the parties. I mean a LONG time ago.

The kilt was 2006. And he wrestled Xankriz while wearing it. Talk about concealing his manly parts!

Yeah, but I have switch to Cargo shorts at events... No matter the time of year you can always use more pockets! Also it has a tendency to get warm around all those computers. Also... Pride always wore the cargo shorts. I do it in memory of him...
