Post 6

*sigh* ohh well, there goes my 4 weeks annual leave *grumble*

Hey Howie, what kind of miracle would it take to get Evo #2 up on time? I have some spare time starting the week after next, and hey, there might be some highschool kids who need to be kept out of trouble (Neo :wink:)

Consider my services volunteered for miracle procurement duty should you need it.

Post 7

only thing i could imagine it being is the venue?
in which case its doomed... DOOMED!!!
otherwise it has to be fixableableableitable

Post 8

hmm... not necessarily, we just need to find another venue - what do you think, 150+ people at the greek school? :twisted:

Post 9

i was under the impression that was where it was planned to be, and if its cancelled then that idea is stuffed :P

Post 24

Howie, if you want Octa4 as a sponsor this year, let me know and i'll try to sweet talk the sales girls - you have one week to respond till i'm on holidays and then you'll be s**t out of luck :P

The greek school is like a few blocks from my place, so if anyone I know that lives far away needs a place to crash to get SOME sleep............I have two spare beds, but i'm sure you could throw a sleeping abg on the floor and sleep like that no probs!

cool raker, prolly need your help setting edonkey up...confuses the hell outta me :|

Post 61

The 8 clans have been filled Neo and we are missing a few clans as well.

Whatcha gonna do?

Post 62

Its only my job to allow people to register :)
It will stay open, more clans can register, however i'll assume the first 8 clans have the priority. If the extra clans still get to participate is upto the Competition organisers, namely CrazyC and Unseen.

Post 63

I thought 8 clans was a bit *lite*.

Oh well see what 'the powers that make things happen' do..:)

Post 64

HMMMM yeah 8 clans is a little to few, really this is Evo this is like the lan that Darwin clans wait to play for, it would be a shame to see some clans not be able to war just cos we want 8. I know time is a major factor here, but Im sure you can easily have 2-3 wars going at once no prbs.

Anyway Id like to see everyone get the opportunity to war.

Later

Post 65

Ok Due to popular demand ...and someone threating to hang my dog.
We will increase the number for the CS Comp to 12 Teams in total.
Please sign up here for your clan to be in it. Good luck to all teams in the Comp, And go TOB…

Post 66

whats that TOB gonna die again :) whats new :)

Post 67

BAHAHAHA

We NOOBS here at BM would like to have a war against TOB (that is if the draw doesnt let us play that is), you reckon yous are up to it :D

yeah 12 is better, TA

Later

Post 68

Have two stages to the tourney, the first one being some form of round-robin game (have each clan play 3-4 others and take the 8 clans with the most wins).

Just a suggestion.

Post 69

20 hours to do wahoo wahooo

everyone with avis and mpegs and reed dwarf bring em and share em cause the 1st day there is no comps

Post 70

Evo 2 will open the doors at Midday, no ealier.

When you arrive at EVO, Please head over to Crazy C or Clackers, for Payment and a seat location, you will NOT be allowed to setup before seeing the Admins. Also their will be a web server running with most of the info regarding then LAN and Comp times...

See you at EVO :)
