It's been a long day for a lot of us, but not as long a day as it's been for Power Gaming and OVERLOAd. After a lot of initially-worrying delays, we have pulled through at the first edition of ET E-Series by Kaos TV. Your champions, ladies and gentlemen, are OVERLOAd - a team who had everybody talking about whether or not they would actually go once they had signed up. For those who doubted them, let this be a lesson.

Date: 15th May 2010
Time: 21:30 CET
Maps: Frostbite, Goldrush, Supply
Event: Kaos TV E-Series
E-Series was an event that was created as a trial-run for a potential new Enemy Teritory LAN series seemed to create an unexpected hype parade with ET community dwellers wakening up to watch their beloved game on ETTV. However, those hopes were destroyed when it became apparent that ETTV could not connect to the local servers. At that point, the community's expectations still had to be met and players started their 2nd round games by playing on online servers just to give the community their ETTV fix. Soon after that, there seemed to be something or somebody affecting the upstream at the venue which caused everybody's ping to sky rocket. Back to local servers it was. We eventually managed to connect to the local network at Weesp thanks to Hamachi and the rest of the event was caught on ETTV.
Final standings

Congrats ati, zak und fighter
yeah the building looked kinda crappy but the PCs were good, lan area was fine for me except that we could hear exactly what you guys said (and vice versa I suppose) when we had to play you. Weesp wasn't very busy but the supermarket & cafetaria wasn't far away, few minutes drive. Didn't bother getting food inside the "lan center". Yeah coverage was badly arranged but got fixed before our last group game so the "important" games atleast got shown.
when we arrived at the building we thought we got trolled by seanza:S until some dutch guy who kept speaking english to me (eventhough I spoke dutch to him for 5 mins already ) told us we were at the right place:))))
As for the venue, what difference does it make if the building is empty or for sale? There were PCs there for you to use. As for Weesp being a ghost town, why does THAT matter when you're in a building playing games anyway? Were you planning on going to a club or something after? Amsterdam is like 15/20 mins away if you wanna do that.
As for a "retarded guy" making toasties, give some feedback about what food you'd like to see there for future events (should there be any). At least there were some sort of facilities there for people who wanted to use them.
This event was a trial run for ET at E-Series, give proper feedback rather than flaming and being disrespectful to people that try and help this community (ie. Kaos) otherwise you can consider yourself disallowed from any events that they (and I) run in future.
+ The chairs are shit ..
gg all see ya next time
ps: well played jallaaaaaaaaa
