After some sad comment here on CF by Sean about passing the LAN torch I fear there might be no more lans.eu. I know the LAN.pl date isn't even 100% certain (90% for 16-17 February though) so it's quite far off but I guess deciding on going to Poland is not an easy thing for you .eu people to do. So here is my question:how many of you are actually willing to come?
Some unconfirmed info:
Place:Uniwerstytet Pedagogiczny, Krakow, Poland
Time:February (16-17 probably)
Entry:450pln (~110e)
Prizes:7600 pln (~1800e) @ 16 teams
Here are some random things to help you make up your mind:
Cons:
-Expensive travel
Eventhough you can always find some cheap flight tickets, the distance to lan is an important factor. Enschede's biggest advantage was fact that it was in car distance for most of the players
-If you come by car, it might get stolen
Can happen to you in Enschede to but more likely to happen in Poland
-Not for weak drinkers
Do not try to act tough and impress anyone with drinking, know your limit or you will end up in trouble (shoutout cousin) :D
Pros (one big, one small):
-Everything is cheaper
Compare to Europe everything is cheap as hell. Some examples:
pack of cigs:3 euro tops
beer in pub:1-2 euro (depending on pub, happy hours and all that crap)
beer in store:less than 1 euro (and before anyone says shit, you can get decent beer, really decent!)
Accomodation=like 15e for room for 2 so 7,50e each
-chance to meet some bigmouth internet polaks
quite clear, no need to elaborate on that :P if you have grudge against me, come and say it to my face!
-Krakow is quite beautiful
Since people there didn't fight with germans during WW2 (instasurender and shit) the city itself is quite beautiful with lots of old building and shit. Also quite a lot of clubs/pubs there and all near citycenter so go enjoy them ;) (ladies dig the UK accent hint hint R0SS)
That's about it, just tell meh if coming/no coming/strongly considering

anything can get stolen,anywhere,anytime. even while ur at home playing ET
Wish you god luck and all the best with CGS .. Looks like PL is more activ as the rest of EU..
And yes I would be interested, but no need for a LAN for that :D
and yeah, i do play LoL instead of ET
least i can stop gaming if i want to, still when u want to quit u cannot do it :d
