We were completely aware going into this event that the lack of tournaments would decrease the overall turnout somewhat, but we think that the good weather, Prom, and Finals were more of a hindrance than anything. We enjoy having casual "No Frills" events every so often, but we can assure you that the next Warfactory event will return to Tournament mentality.Tectonic wrote:I guarantee that the lack of tournaments was more than half the reason why many of the registered players didn't show up to the lan. There's just not as much motivation for many of us when there is nothing to be competing over.

ah, ok cool. i'm gonna be heading to nashville in a couple weeks for my friend's wedding. he lives in nashville... he was a manager at an ebgames, but now he's the manager of the ebgames in a town called columbia. if you're ever around there, swing by the ebgames and talk to dan little. he's cool as hell and, in my opinion, overqualified for a job at ebgames. he's a badass at computer stuff... he went to computer tech schools and whatnot. he's working like 12 hrs/day at this job just to make some money for him and his soon-to-be wife.

Amen to that. College is a bit different, but if you keep up with classes, finals aren't all that bad. The thing I simply don't understand is how high-schoolers have to "study". Good lord, I never studied in high school and aced all my classes.infinitevalence wrote:lol, finals who the hell cares about that, i drove 5 hrs to STL and 5 hrs back and had a final on monday. Its all about the games damit... well that and the hardware.

College on the other hand was a totally different ballgame. I don't think anyone could pass with flying colors unless they read the material and actually study it.
Now now... Only thing that could of been wrong with it was memory. Learned that it is picky with memory, so I opt to buy another mobo since it is cheaper.WF - Audiophile wrote: damn motherboard installers.....
And yes we are currently working on a tourny setup for the next go around. We are thinking CS:S (obviously) and then something off the beaten path to make life a little interesting. We'll see.
Tourney idea, who can beat you in Generals. But then again the LAN isn't long enough for that to happen.
