Mizzouri's next LAN

Ok, I've been busting my arse all summer to get my house more in order and all I've got left are some minor items. Since I'm so close to being done til winter I'd like to plan my next event. I'm thinking that Sept 10th (yeah I know it's a Friday) would be good. This is going to be a smaller event, with, say 14 total. At this point I've got 5 or so peeps from Sprint that normally game together as our main competition. I'm still working on the games that will be played but we WILL be playing a flight sim this time around. Let me kow what you guys think of the date. I can be flexible if this won't work for most. Thanks.

Did everyone here that... Mo is holding a birthday event for me since my birthday is on the 8th...

:P

Just some food for thought (no pun intended).

I'd like to come, but I'm kind of a stranger, and talking to strangers is dangers!!!

If work will let me off (1 person was fired and 1 quit), I'll be there. Should have an answer by this Friday.

This sounds like a lot of fun.

Who wants to mess with me now?

Alright, so far the following are the names I've gotten so far:

Mizzouri
Squirrel
Rickus Khan
Tech Doc
Kaiser Roll
Welles
FlyBoy
Bob
Reflex
and 5 other from another LAN group


That leaves 2 other spots which may be filled by guys from the other group. Let me know ASAP if your name needs added or deleted as I would like to complete the list in the next few days.

How old is Brian anyway.... approaching 40 isn't he? 38? 39?

I understand he's about to file for Social Security in the next year or so!

Count me in

Add Mojo_Jojo to the list (per our conversation yesterday Mizzou)

I can bring my XBOX stuff. If anybody wants to play.

Not sure we'll have time for XBOX at this LAN.

I really hope this one can turn out like the first LAN we had at your place, the teams with one side of the room against the other were superb.

Other than trying to even the teams, which is going to be very difficult this time, what else did you like? What would you change? I think for me, the biggest change that could be made is to announce the maps before game day. I've been pretty busy so that may or may not happen at this event. I'll try to make that happen at the October event.

I just realized I have none of the games listed to be played...

Looks like I'll be odd man out till something I do have is played. Oh well. I'm sure I'll have plenty of time to laugh at Mojo.

Sorry to hear that Dragon. Kirk just realized he had a prior engagement as well, so I'm looking for 2 more bodies again.

1 slot gone to the guys from the "opposing" team.

By an October event, I hope you are speaking of a yet to be scheduled event to be held over the night of the 8th through the night of the 9th????

If so, that would be SWEEEETTTTT!!!!!

One of the guys I know from another group in Sprint holds LAN events at his house. His name is Ben Fuller. I just thought it'd be fun to have our team vs theirs. I'm trying to give them the last slot, then we'd only have to move 1 of our guys over there to be an 8 vs 8.


Kyle, you are referring to the Friday night of Oct 8 into Saturday morning, correct? I'd rather have it on a Saturday night if possible.

That would work too, I just wouldn't be able to play as late into Saturday night. I have the RenFest going on on Sunday already (and Rick and Brian may be going too) that I need to head out in the morning to. So, I know that if I want to get up and make it without draggin ass all day, I need to get some sleep on Saturday night / Sunday early morning.

My thought was if we could start on Friday night, I can play all the way through to Saturday late. I also mentioned (I think to Brian, but may have been Rick) that if you have something going on at your place and can't host that weekend, I would try to find someplace we can rent out for that time, and pony up for that if needs be. (although if we have a free place to play, that is always preferable)

It is your house we are talking about, so whatever works best for you is what we will do. I will be down that Thursday night or Friday morning, so if it is an issue of needing help to set up, I can also help with that. I got all the time in the world that day.

__________________

Or, even a Saturday day LAN would work. Where we start at 8 or 9 in the morning or so, and play until late Saturday night. With people taking cat naps and sleep times during an overnight, it almost works out to the same amount of overall gaming time.

Maybe we could all get together for breakfast even that morning and then head over to your place to set up and play. If necessary, some of us could come over Friday night and just help you set up the area, and then we could go catch a movie, or leave you alone for wife faction time.

__________________

Let me check with Kelly, but it sounds like Friday night might be the winner. I'd like to tag along to RenFest as well.

Put me down for the "good guys." What is show time? I need to know if I need to take leave or not.....

We're gonna start around 5ish and go til people drop (7am or so). We are now full! BY the way, since Kirk is not going to be there we will not be playing MS Combat Sim.

If I could get a ride from someone, I will but them a 12 pack of thier choice, and also be eternally grateful.

How about a specific location for those of us who haven't been there yet?

I'll do it

Unfortunately I haven't played the game much myself. If you, or anyone else has any favorites let me know.

i am planning on being at the sunday event. I don't think I have a switch to bring along, but don't they sell those sort of things at Best Buy? Ha Ha Ha

Ok, back to business, I think as a team we will need some time to play together since it has been a while for us to play together. I don't think it will much fun to have smack-down put upon us at our own home?? Nope, no fun at all. When we have the homefield advantage, it is we who should be putting the smack down. Not them.

Come on guys, let's try to meet up on Sunday.

Later
Philip

Well, looks like I came back to the forums a bit too late. If a spot opens up, let me know.

Can someone confirm that TechDoc is able to make it?

I'm going to start working on a maps list when I wake up later today. Should have a complete list of the R6 maps and most of the COD maps. The Urban Terror maps are going to take more time than I have currently.

As much as I would love to be thier. I cannot. 8 hour drive is kinda long. You all try not to have too much fun now...heh

Sorry to hear it Tech Doc. For the rest, an open spot.................

My DDR buddy Alec told me last night that he wanted to go if a spot opened up, and he's good people.

Can he take that spot? I'll keep you informed if for some reason he can't go. But he's pretty good about keeping dates.

Put his handle on as Snake.

Excellent

Sweet!! I'll be there. I'll give you a call on Thursday to confirm that I know which entrance to go through. Don't post it here, you don't want everyone coming to your house, do you? Ha Ha.

Talk to you Thursday and see you Friday.

Peace out!!

Update: Apparantly Snake can't go.

Sigh. One slot open.

I believe MoMo expressed interest as well. If not I know there are 2 others waiting in the wing. MoMo, let me know by cob Wednesday please.

I have been playing CoD in a clan for the last two days, and I have a few techniques I would like to go over, just simple little things on a few of the maps.

I'd like to break out the team of 8 into 2 groups. This strategy will work well for R6 and I think pretty well for COD. We just need to follow a consistant plan of attack for each map.

In CoD on most maps there is generally more than 1 way to attack the same route. It's a better idea to split up, but stay moving on the same general path, firing from two different places at the same target is very hard to fight back against, due to the nature of the weapons in CoD.

I'm having Squirrel ask Kevin to take the last spot. Reflex, I'll appoint you lieutenant to take over the other squad of 4 if that's alright with you.

That's cool.

I need some specifics on the location and time

2705 Field Creek Ct
Blue Springs, MO 64014


Starting 5ish. If you need my # PM me.

Phil email reflex to get his number of reflex email mojo.jojo with your ph number...
