Get those pics up pronto!

And yeah, it rocked \o/
*clap* well done on lan adacore, but i didnt understand until sunday that you were adacore :P
Parent
lol, thanks. I shall remember in future to go round to the people I've not already met and do a proper "Hi, I'm Adacore, I'm running the tournament" talk. We almost called a big group meeting for ET before the tourney on friday, actually, but decided we didn't need it.
Parent
it was great, im looking forward to the next lan :)
did u admins get payed, or did you only get the trip for free? afaik you guys worked pretty hard getting it to work the way it was supposed 2 :)
We didn't get paid, but it was all free. Flights, food, hostel room all provided. Being paid would be a nice extra, but I enjoy adminning LANs so much it'd just be a bonus really ;D

EDIT: And yeah, running LANs is by far the hardest work I've ever done. QuakeCon, CPC and SHG were all loads of work, but definitely worth it!
Parent
yeh you were running back and forth telling teams what servers to join :D

good work !
Parent
im missing free coke zero :D
Parent
Same, I tried to reach for the constantly respawning can of coke zero that's been sitting by my monitor for 72 hours a few minutes ago and realised I don't have an endless free supply any more :(
Parent
team dtekt took 30 cans with us in the car :D, some girl came with the big cooler, and we snatched quite many :D. and btw <3 the girl in see trhu skirt giving out little lotto papers to win motherboard :D, she had nice cleveage too ;D.
Parent
true really nice admin'ing at the lan, structured and on schedule... and thanks for our own little "special olympics" (consolation bracket) :D
im jealous
we came 5th
and u won the consolation
u get prices that are worth aound 500 euros, while we get 140 euros :P
Parent
so true... :-/
Parent
We talked about exactly that when we saw u guys "only" getting the money :P
Parent
If some lan need more admins for the matches and I aint going there with a team, I would be very interested on going just as an admin. free trip for work as an admin is very nice actually. you get to meet a lot of people. I really didnt expect to have such a great time on lan but this was surely worth it. all the ppl I met and talked with were very nice guys. a weekend was just way too short time for this.


random quote:

Parent

Parent
