So some of my team mates are being a little...bitchy, and they want to know what the prizes are before they sign up, can anyone give me a link or post what the possibilities are.. kthx love<3
-
Well, that's part of the surprise.
Also if you have more than three people you waited too long and wouldn't be able to sit together.

On a side note, Steam ID wasn't meant for the number, but the name people can find you under on steam friends. (Steam account or Email address.)
-

thank you <333

Sorry but I wanted to know a little bit more specifically about the structure of the payouts from the source tournament. If each team pays 210 (35 * 6) and theres 6 teams that should be 1260 in prize money. I realize that fites probably takes some money out of the overall pool to cover your costs, so what is that number and whats left for prizes? Don't really want to have a team trek half way across the country to find out they won 50$... it wouldn't even cover their gas.

I don't think there were significant cash prizes ever given out at a Fites event.

Your payment of 35 dollars is the covering cost of the lan (costs and such to host the event). Your entry fee has no correlation between the tournament and the event.
-
Prizes are supplied by what the sponsors give and is not tied to your entry fee. We barely cover costs with the fee, and with the economy as it is, most of the staff can't afford to dump even more of our own money out for prizes.
-
this event year after year is worth the entry fee even if you walk away empty handed which has not ever happened to me yet and this will be my 3rd year at a fites 150 and to be honest its a hell of a lan and i dnt do it for the prizes i do it for the games and the expierence. When i pay to go to hershey park the roller coaster dosnt pay me but when i go to a casino then u could get payed but not likely so think of this as a amusment park but you brng you own ride. (i love the run on sentence)

nitro237, Thank you very much for your kind words and praise regarding our events. The staff works very hard to ensure those attending have the greatest potential for fun even at the expense of their own. Before the doors open, we're hearing positive words of encouragement from those registered and we haven't even started fragging yet!
If you're looking for an exciting fun filled weekend full of camaraderie, lightning fast network speeds, and a general great time, well pack your gear and head to a FITES LAN! (We're more than just the 150's you know..)

Personally I just come to meet new faces. And I am going to be meeting a ton of people this time. I finally get to meet, HWDeath, Haggard, Zeriel, Gravdigr, some guys from Pittco who I haven't seen in years. And even Czar, and I do hope you bring that lovely piss bag that everyone knows you for. And it would be a chance to see Pride again; haven't seen him in almost 3 years. Now if we can just get Czar and Wallzy to come to the monthly lans somehow.

It was a BLOOD IV Drip! He is a vampire.
-
I dunno...with my new found staff duties, I may have to catheterize myself and tap a bag to my thigh. I`m sure I can muster one of those up from somewhere.
-
Bring some Garlic.
-
New people coming to this lan should be more concerned with Tib's hair than vampires. :hehemean:
-
Beware of the hair!
-
Tibs and I were talking last night and I mentioned the idea of holding an auction at the LAN and the highest bidder gets to shave Tib's head. He seemed interested in the idea.
-
I`ll bring the gloves.

Can I get one of those too?
-
I really doubt anyone would WANT to shave tib's hair. God knows what's under than canopy of curliness.
-
You mean this beautiful head of hair?
-
What a luscious head of hair! That would make Mufassa jealous!

Agent can do a better crop.
-
Oh i know. I'm an amateur and just use a portable copy of The GIMP :) I do it for the quick laugh.
-
HE did it for the lulz!
-
I did it in Paint. Not sure if anyone noticed the increase in the fro size or not. It was kind of subtle.
-
Here, I photoshopped it a tad. I think it's an improvement.
-
Do I really look like Richard Simmons?
-
You have the same hair.
-
That looks like a photochop, I can tell from the pixles.

All of them were photochopped.
-
I knew it there were over 9,000 pixles that looked p-chop'ed.

Dude catheters burn when you remove them. Not cool. And dang its tough to pee for the first time after getting one removed
-
Hey Czar you going to be rolling up in a EMT Bus?
-
Nah. Gotta keep the rigs at the station. Waaaay outta my area. I`ll be packing some gear though in case someone gets physically owned at the LAN.
I'd like to try my new hook out on someone.
