Thread: Question for Layoric

Yeah yeah I know but shut up this IS lan related!!!

So Layoric I was thinking about your lan being put off till the 3rd. This must suck (I know the price sure blew us out of the water). Anyway my thoughts on this are that Darwin probably isn't big enough to support two "serious" Lan groups, and as DGA already has a large and loyal following (just check our posts) that perhaps we would be better off if you joined DGA and we worked to become the ONLY lan group in Darwin?

Anyway these are just my thoughts because as you already know date changing of lans can cause headaches for other people's planned lans.

Anyone else's input here is welcome but please dont post stupid shit comments.

DGA will own the NT !!!

/me hoping ...

tn1

hmmm hostile take over this should be interesting :p

DGA ALL DA WAY!!!!!

Reminds me off the many businesses that microsoft must of CRUSHED to get were they are today :p

Hey Pheonix,

yeah, i have noticed that you have been been suggesting this for a while, but to be hostast i don't like the idea of just dropping everything with landed, eg the site, the name (prolly not as well known as the DGA). Why can't 2 lans happen, i have made sure that i keep my lans out of your dates so they won't interfer with the DGA, and yes, the next landed is happening on the 3rd of febuary.

The price is very high thats why there will be very little prize money if any. The reason it is so high is, this is accourding to the hotel, that they have had bad experiences with teenage people hiring out the place, so hopfully if this lan goes well it will make the place cheaper for the next landed as well as the DGA.

Things like that i can do to help the DGA, thats fine, i just don't wanna put everything aside YET, i will see how things go this year and go from there i guess.Thanx

Seriously, anyone organizing LANs is tons of Phun and exicitement... LANDED NT or DGA it doesn't really matter...

How 'bout this guyz.. LANDGA

with an population of 50 strong per LAN event... we got some major stuff coming our way !!!

So c'mmon guyz... don't get left behind.

seeing there is to lan groups and probably 50% plus of people go to both, a merger sounds good. Also in an earlier thred wasn't it said that sponcers wanted a lan a month? well y not have DGA one month Landed the next. you may need more sponcership as business' may think it is still different lans.
this way they are still seperate, but just get themain orgainisers of each to talk together and orgainise it all.

I personally think that the DGA LAN rocked, i was told (by others) that the previous DGA was just as good, i dunno about LANDED as i aint been in NT for that long, only since oct 00, but if i had to choose right now between LANDED or DGA, i would go for DGA all they way, it was fun, organised (mostly) and we all had a good time, looking eagerly forward to DGA #3 as i now have my GTS2 ultra, also, think about it, if we joined LAN's together, more sponsoship = better stuff, ie. prize money or prize computer parts, i sure as fuck would not mind winning myself $100 or a nice new SBLIVE platinum, anyway, thats my view, if we have 2 diff LAN's, then sponsors are gonna have to make a choice, but thats just my two cents, and im Kent Brockman

Landed all the way fuck DGA HEHEHEHEE!!!!!


nah i like em both why not have 2

Isn't a little friendly competition good for bussiness?... like it makes DGA and LANDED try harder to get better venues .. cheaper prices... better prize money and so on...

not to mention it gives the other organisers of DGA to go to(if they wanted to) landed and just relax and play with out having to worry about the sound... the power... the network... and the food and Vica versa...

also if u have 2 Lan groups then instead of getting 2-3 days LANing a holidays we get like 4-6 days LANing... Isn't that what we want, as gamers, as LANERS (this is the part when the American flag waves in the background)

I Admit the idea of a merger is a good one... u have to think... what real benifits would it bring except more expertise (lower stress levels) to the organisers of these GREAT LANS ? and if that is required i am sure Layoric, tn1 and every one,are good enough blokes that would help out...

also what is this stuff about DGAer's or LANDEDer's ... it's like u want a NT LAN REVOULTION¿... aren't we all just in this for the fun and stuff... i mean DGA was cool... and LANDED sounds cool too... so y don't we stop calling ourselves DGAers and LANDEDers and saying WHich and who is better and Just call oueselves LANers and Take each Lan as it comes (american flag thingy again)B it DGA, LANDED or whateva else

BTW flammable u mentioned Mircosoft must have crushed many companies on it's way to the TOP... i ask u now... do u like microsoft or IBM products ... and would u choose them if u had a deccent selection of OS, not just Linux, Mac and windows... i mean a REAL RANGE... like the amount of GAME companies there are? I probably would think twice.. AND do u really want DGA to end up as the BIG lan that nobody really likes coz' they r cutting every cornor they can to B the only big LAN? it almost seems u r holding microsoft up as a Role model for DGA, coz' if so... maybe i should ask ppl b4 i go to the next DGA... maybe no 3 will have more bugs than No 2..? (no offense.. i kinda couldn't stop myself writing here... sorry...)
BTW 2 ... Layoric i like the location for the LANded ... RIGHT ABOVE MACDONALDS.. mmmm it's mac time... again and again and again and again.. hehe only problem is the fact that it is on a weekend... means some of us may have to go to sleep early on friday and have a little time off during the lan to stay Alive...
