I never said it was mentioned!

I dunno, I always considered party to be associated with fun.


So by the very nature of these words, I would say fun is associated.  :geek:

FITES events are always professional and run with a great, friendly, helpful staff.  Not to mention all the cool people who come to game and have a great time. One of the biggest things that keep me (and probably others) coming back is the absolute coolness of the people.  I've been to 4-5 FITES events and have never met a jerk, braggart (beyond anyone who just fragged Pride), or cheater. I'm proud to be a part of this organization and hope to help uphold its name at the 100ML.

Here's to a great LAN party guys!

Thank you to all who volunteer their time to make it all happen!

Dictionary.com did not use fun. Fun may be a synonym for some of those words but it was not used.




That's strike two.  :bigsmile:

And you trust the Internet? And only use one source?
Google: Define: fun

There the word amusement is used. If that's not related to fun or party then I have NO idea what language you speak.

Also, my first statement was of an opinion. Which I would have to say I have backed up with substance and you have given further proof on why they are associated in my mind.

I never said that the word is used to define or categorize the word party.

Since it was and is still an opinion, and choice words being synonymous with fun, you have just further backed up why I believe that they are related in the initial post.  Your “arguments” have been nothing but fodder for my initial opinion.  I will hold this opinion to be all mine and not claim it as a dictionary definition. It seems that you are trying to get me to change my opinion through week argument.

I have no idea, why my opinion needs to be in the dictionary or why I am even bothering to continue to post on the matter.





UNLESS!!!!
This was a psychological stunt to bring out competitiveness…… Or I am just over analyzing this… Well, If you really need the win on this one, I guess I could let you have it, but…… Nope.

Q4 is a PITA to set up on a server.  Until our game server guy figures it out, no

It will only happen when there are dedicated servers at the lan for it.  You cannot have players host their own servers.  Because if the hosting player has a map that the joining player doesn't, he won't be able to join.  Automatic downloading isnt' a feature in quake 4...yet.  This is why the tournament was switched to quake 3 at the lan.


You couldn't join a server if you didn't have all the maps that the server had, but for tournaments like these, they would only put the maps that are in the maplist for the tournament.  Plus, not many people had Q4Max at the time either.
