#6 The more people willing to go when they will prob finish lower in groups (and still go to lans) means the more prizes you will get. Someone has to lose. :)
Being nice to those teams, just for going, is good for gaming.
Special thanks to tetris and Infused who are sporting enough to allow us to postpone our matches due to Demons PC going on meltdown. Hopefully it'll be reformated by the next match.
We've had to play the last 2 with Demon in the Mfestival next to the stage on a PC with no Vent and on a 26" tv screen. - Non the less absolutely outstanding appreciation for KustomPC's who were kind enough to allow him to use his pc.
Who'd have thought at a Lan with Thousands of Pcs, Hundreds of corporate Pcs, and 1000s of PC genius's that nobody had a spare PC.
signature gaming beat sample this, dont know the score/map.
yeah, 14-10. Kinda unable to play here if they are having a 'show' on the mainstage, too much sound. couldn't hear the plant even, and couldn't talk to eachother.
lol whats up with this, EG/Dignitas/fnatic/LLL/reason & MYM the only "pro" teams attending? Thought it would have most of the teams that fielded at AEF / TEX as well..
edit: totally forgot that this is BYOC and not TUP like last iseries

Actually iLAN is really bad for that. Remember playing i28 without a headset as they decided to have a raffle during our matches. Learn from that, got a bigger headset. :)
:( I cannot believe some fkin Mug unplugged Demons ethernet cable at the end of the aisle.
This lead to hours of trying to fix Demons pc which included several tech experts and Demon reformatting without a XP key or any drivers :(
I spoke to every single trader, and anyone I could think of for advice, and trying to find a spare PC.
We played 2 games with Demon on a 26" demo PC in the Mfestival right next to the stage and with no Vent :(
look all the BYOC clans whos in there.. why not just give other clans (better clans) the TUP tickets and i-series would be great, but nooo, they wanted the money from BYOC tickets, gg i-series, URE SHITE.
3:45 net goes down, with games due to start at 4. Postpone tetris and infused game.
Two admins tells me my computer is fucked and it isnt their network, which true my comp was fucked but it has been fucked for 3 years and nothing like this has happened.
6:00 play first match on a exhibition pc, no vent no sound, not my config not my mouse not my keyboard/ mousepad. I had random graphics on culdnt even get 125 standard :S, win 1st 1, lose 2nd.
Reformatting finished, then frantic downloading of all drivers including network drivers. Infused wanted to play, so i played on our backup's messi's pc, with my config and my equipment and he ahd better fps so that was all good, lose 13-11 to infused on vacant :(
Pop installs my network drivers but still no inet, i go to talk to a tech guy, he comes over after about 10 mins walks about 5 m away checks the main hub or w.e and finds my internet cable has been pulled out.
6h 15 min later, finally just downloaded the cod4 patches.
This had all my shit on, as well as my family's all wiped, because admins were adament it was my pc.....

Not trying to sound smart or anything bud..
but surely before you went to all this hassle of swapping around pc's etc the cable woulda been the first thing i woulda checked.
the initial wires were all fine, but its like where they r all together at a hub or summin, about 10 people down and opposite my row, where the cable was out
they blamed it on a auto update, and the fact my win32 been fucked for 3 years or so, e.g. when u go run cmd or some command wuld go not a valid win32 application, but u can just do it manually.

Tbf your teamwork didn't seem to suffer too much so im sure u could hear each other and its not as if we got away with aload of ninja plants ;p. Dunno its our home map guess we just played better on the day. GG overall (:
On another note for messups at i34 our whole half of row powered down for 2 hours because a fuse went in one of the giant cables and it soldered one of the packs together or some shiz. The guys wasted on stella helped out loads to fix it tho ;p.
to be fair 45, it is fking hard to hear especially when they were doing the rockband contest, i had to play on exhibition pc and well my headset was bad enough as i didnt have time to set the codec up, in the end tho i took my headset off 2nd match played with no comms and no sound, however was a brilliant win for u guys! And i dont think it wuld of made that much of a diff

The admins took over and fiddled around with the wires a lot.
They basically tried lots of stuff and failed and blamed it on Demons computer. They said they couldn't do anything more because Demon might sue them.
they blamed it on a auto update, and the fact my win32 been fucked for 3 years or so, e.g. when u go run cmd or some command wuld go not a valid win32 application, but u can just do it manually.
