As you all know [url=http://dga.octa4.net.au]DGA[/url] 6 is just round the corner *looks behind, not again*

All DGA <A HREF="http://dga.octa4.net.au/content.php?menu=13&page_id=5" TARGET=_blank>
Admins </A>will be meeting this weekend to discuss how things should be run @ DGA 6 (at Clackers place *Hic*...)

Things like, setting up, CS comps [img]http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/smile.gif[/img], Quake 3 comp *Shannow is not to play*, Play Station 2 Demo (Vorly) etc...If you have any ideas and suggestions, please comment.

I have decided to hold it at the Carlton Hotel (3rd Floor), they are really nice to us and the venue is great, but a small problem, Monday is a public holiday and they want to charge me a 25% surcharge for Monday (they are getting back to me on this), so would you still like to extend it to Monday night or finish off Late Sunday night?

The Play station 2 Demo, Vorly and I are in talks about it, he wants to show it off (and why wouldn’t you), so I am tracking down some Data projectors ( one place wanted $300 per day [img]http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/frown.gif[/img] X 2 units )to display, and I plan to use them for the Quake 3 final comp [img]http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/biggrin.gif[/img], what do you think? [i]If you know anyone with a projector contact me[/i].

All the usual times for the LAN, it will start 11:00am Saturday (4th Aug) Price = $20 + $5 for pizza, morning till (TBA) free for all gaming till Saturday night then the Quake 3 Comp and Vorlys 15 minutes of fame [img]http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/biggrin.gif[/img]…and the CS Comp on Sunday arvo, These time might change as I said earlier the Admins will decided this Friday, how and when the LAN should go.

One more thing I would like to comment on is a post Vorly made [url=http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/Forum1/HTML/000879.html]here[/url]…
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR> Once other thing, a good friend of mine whom I won't name has actually been turned away from the LAN Scene. Why? Well its simple the environment in which we host LANs isn't exactly friendly. There are many people whom you don't know and well that can be off putting. I myself have come to know most people at both [url=http://landednt.net-games.com]LANded[/url] and [url=http://www.busted-ass.com]DGA[/url]
and it is far more easier for me enjoy a LAN because I know who is who and who I can trust. However I have a remedy, which [url=http://www.busted-ass.com]DGA[/url] and [url=http://landednt.net-games.com]LANded[/url] will probably go SIF to but who cares. I myself will be holding LANS but only for a select few people with a max amount of people reaching 8. Dunno what I’m gonna call it though but just like all MY previous Lans there will be no entry fee. [ [url=http://www.busted-ass.com]TOB[/url] ] guys can come [img]http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/biggrin.gif[/img] <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

I agree with him, (about the two groups of LANners…) if we had all the gamers under one roof, that would Rock [img]http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/biggrin.gif[/img]
[b]DGA welcomes all gamers…the LANs are for you … that mean all of you [i]Nerds[/b] [/i]… [img]http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/biggrin.gif[/img]

See you at the [b]DGA LAN[/b]

Ok ppl... listen up... TN1 has set the place and a preview of activities... We're gonna try up once again to have a [b]real[/b] [i]decent[/i] competition. I'm planning competitions not for CS alone but will cater for several games (Q3series, RA3, SCraft/BW, whatever<-Don't know what game this is [img]http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/smilies/cwm32.gif[/img] ).

[b]Things we will try to accomplish[/b]<UL TYPE=SQUARE><LI>Have lots of different game competitions
<LI>High player participance in contests
<LI>Maximum fun time, minimum lame time
<LI>And yeah there will be time for leeching too but we got to put a hold on things so 3 hours of that should be enough. If you have a grudge against Telstra for putting a 3 gig cap, this is your time... (R3C, do put on your F***** shirt all throughout)
[/list]

For RTS Games, there will be 1 on 1, tag teams and rumble. Same goes with Q3 Series of games...

Of course the CS comps are there... but lets add a bit more twist in the fun... lets play All stars this time; 2 teams versus 2 teams and let me see a real team workout... I personally want to oversee an all star match and make an article about it.

And Times will be set for the CS/Q3 tournaments BEFORE the LAN, I'll discuss it with TN1 and make sure it happens.
If clans arent ready within 10 minutes of the time their match is set to play, then they forfeit - They will know what time the tournament is, so if they aren't around, too bad.

Post 7

You're a joke Flam... THE X-BOX?!?!
If I wanted a powerful laptop - I would f**king buy one!
And that's all the X-Box comes down to really.

At least a REAL laptop (one without a big X and the MS logo) comes with a REAL operating system, some REAL games and its OWN screen. Not to mention supporting higher resolutions.

The only thing that the X-Box has over a laptop is simple... That georgous chick with the mech... Mmm.

I could name quite a damn few Lap-Tops that rape the specs of the X-Box, and they have those benifits listed above.

The price difference is massive... But in the long run, it's definately a better investment.

Stick to computers, consoles are for girls and 4 year olds... Oh and yeah, maybe for me too, when I wanna play Gran Turismo or Tekken. *grin*

Umm... If that's what turns you on...

Rightio Ho then, Lil Sponge and myself will be there. We now have 2 puters up and running and I must say the 1.2 Gig athlon with there mere 700 odd meg of ram pumps harder than a $2 dollar whore at a navy home coming party.

And to think the entire new puter cost me less than 1100 bucks. Damn its criminal but hey, gotta let them fingers do the walking.

So I guess I will see you all there and support my TOB compatriates in wiping the smiles from your faces with my MP5.

Damn Vorly is gonna kick my butt again....heh heh Unless I can get an edge.
