-It seems there are lans in every country apart from uk :(
-If the main organizer in et is english why not?
-Its easy and cheap to get to (Eurostar).
-UK prolly has the smallest amount of et players,apart from that its ideal.

Jetzt hab ich grad voll Lust auf Weißwürste bekommen.
Parent
bei der Hitze? :(
Parent
Bei uns ists heute nicht ganz so warm. Aber selbst wenn, Weißwürste würde ich bei jedem Wetter essen. Verstehe das prinzipiell schon gar nicht, warum man bei Hitze kein warmes Essen essen sollte, mir ist das einerlei.
Parent
du bist so cool. das ist der wahnsinn!
Parent
wenn's warm is hab ich überhaupt keinen hunger ;/
Parent
Dann tust du mir Leid. :P
Parent
please dont. the cheat whine brits provide even without attending any lans themselves is already too much.

I'm pretty sure Luxembourg has less players.
Nevertheless good idea, then Jinosta could go to LAN.
Nah m8 needs to be in Scotland for that to happen.
Parent
Probably in his home pub.

wondered this myself!
Eurostar is certainly not cheap, and is only really useful for France and Belgium.

However, the big advantage the UK (London in particular) does have is that it's the hub for the two biggest European budget airlines, EasyJet and RyanAir. If you book far enough in advance, you can get to/from almost anywhere in Europe for under 100 euros.

The major disadvantage is venue cost - the cost of hiring a large event venue in or around London is incredibly high. Hotels are also a problem - yes you can travel here relatively cheaply, but staying 3-4 days is going to cost a lot of money.
+ There are excellent services in London, Hotels in there thousands, Underground, Buses. Entertainement...

I think you could say the same things about Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin. Hosting events in major European cities is generally pretty expensive, I doubt you would see a crossfire LAN near central London. Perhaps somewhere like Reading or Newbury but not London.
Parent
Around 76 euro for a eurostar ticket and you can go for free to any other train station in Belgium with that ticket too. I don't think it's too expensive.
Parent
it cos englands shit bruv
BECAUSE THE UK IS SHIT :D
flying to amsterdam is probably about the same cost as getting the train to london for me so it isn't like i'd save any money. uk is difficult to get to from mainland europe, whereas de/be/fr/nl are all pretty tightly linked.

i honestly don't see too many benefits of having the lan in the uk, would be nice to have good beer instead of shitty european lagers and be able to eat pies & pasties i guess but attendance would probably suffer, particularly those 8th-24th benelux teams who attend merely because it costs them nothing
Wait, wait, did u just say there are GOOD english beer brands?
Parent
shit food shit weather!! mmh let me summarize! uk sucks!
cause they live seperated on an island where no1 wants to go, no matter how cheap the trip will be
you still mad
Parent
why still?
Parent
"UK prolly has the smallest amount of et players"

?
money money money
-It seems there are lans in every country apart from uk :(

maybe u mean italy?
eurostar, cheap ?
LEEDS IS PERFECT
fucking wot fucking hell
Parent
Perfect if you wanna have your wheels stolen off your car :D:D::D:D:D:D:D
Parent
all part of the fun tbh
Parent
I think ScotLAN'd has a better ring to it, myself, probably because 'Scot' is a word referring to the natives, whereas 'Eng' means nothing. Not saying it's a good idea though! :D
Yeah, lets have a LAN @ scotland because 'scot' means something .. ":D"
Parent
I love you Adam <3
Parent
best place for lan = Irak
more Brits there than in the UK atm
Parent
There are LANs in the UK just not ones that host ET. Maybe someone could talk to multi play? But in all honesty I doubt it would be played there.

All though to you and me it sounds ideal how many people from countries, where its cheaper to live in general, would pay to come play a game and on top of that pay premium rates for hotels/food/drink/ect?
Lets all go round pottys house? :>
Parent
depends what part your from
Yet you all use our language n1. :)
Name one other country that speaks Welsh :>

tourists disagree
wanna LAN at Moscow? :PPPPPPPPP

-It seems there are lans in every country apart from russia :(
-If the main organizer in et is english why not make it in Russia? :P
-Its easy and cheap to get to (Horse carriage).
-Russia prolly has no et players,apart from that its ideal.
Time will tell if there'll be any LANs in the UK.

Main factor that there isn't is due to UK being quite pricey to host the event itself.
SMALL
