Title: New to the LAN Scene from NY
Post by: Thyrax on December 11, 2013, 01:34:00 PM: Hello all,

My name is Steve, I've been gaming competitively for 9 years. Mostly America's Army. I started playing CSS after America's Army 2 died. I didn't like CSS as much as CSGO, but I was going to a Chicago Lan for America's Army when I and my team was at our prime. I Lan-Dodged due to personal reasons but I would like to at least compete in at least 1 LAN tournament before I die so why not now! :) I am clanless, hopefully I can find a team before the LAN.

I am 24 years old (Bday is today :)), from Long Island, NY, live with my 2 year old son and girlfriend of 5 years. I love working out, eating <- oh yeah!, gaming, watching my shows like Homeland, Tosh.0, South Park, etc.

Hopefully I wont need to travel alone to PA. I was hoping to look for some more people in the NY area or who are passing by the NY area to travel with.

To be honest, the tournaments are great, but some of the best fun comes in the random pick up games like Killing Floor, or TF2 prophunt.

Oh, and join us for one of our game nights one night!

How do I know when game nights are being held? Date and Times?

I wasnt into TF2 much.. couldnt get into it. Killing Floor, I heard of but never tried. I could always try it but I like the military strat games.

There are a decent number of us who like the BF series if that is a little more appealing to you. Game nights are always on a Friday and usually held every week. Most of us hop on around 9. You can check our forums for info since Mahoney usually will put up a new post at the beginning of the week.
