    DGA thoughts guys....

    DGa sucks at the moment, Diva, Sponge and Unseen and a few others are trying hard but they are too few.

    What would make you guys goto DGA?

    Personally its all about the games for me, if a good game is being played by a lot of people i'll want to go down and check it out.

    CS was the last big game for me but thats just me.

    We (SB) have a lotta people in Darwin and could prob make a difference.

    Thoughts guys?

    Honestly?
    The thing that would make me return to a DGA, is familiar faces.
    I wont go to a DGA if my mates aren't there. Sif LAN without Teh Coco, Fr3nzy, @ngel, tn1, Coco, Sponge, Clacks, Sax, Harb, Coco, Eater, OD, Hells, Fleshy, Coco, Heretic, Knight, Coco..the list goes on.

    If there are a few good games to be played, awesome count me in. But not if my mates aren't there. THAT is what DGA was about. A bunch of mates playing games together, having fun together.

    When I first went to DGA, I knew tn1 and Cpl Punishment, that was a grand total of 2.
    At my 'peak' Lannings, I knew about 95% of participants. Back then it was a real environment of social mixing WITH gaming.

    he is saying that cause he lives in perth

    im with milenko none of us all go anymore, if we all went i would go also. once cs died so did dga

    unseen is the only one making things happen, diva is not she coudlnt get some pillows back to the bridge club in 6 weeks aswell as a tin of coffee so they banned us from using the venue. sure she trys to help out but only if everything is placed in her hands to do.

    i just dont have time for 2 day lans anymore, since working i value my weekends to socialise and play wow and sleep aswell as sports.
    i like my adsl connection and i can socialse over vent, i just cant punch sean.

    it's pretty simple really, back in the hey-day, dialup was prominent, dsl was rare, and dga's were one of the few ways for people to experience lag free gaming and fast file sharing.

    now that dsl is prevalent, and mmorpgs are the flavours of the day, there is less and less reason to haul yourself off to a lan to get stuff done.
