Adroits ET Masters

It's been over 8 months since ET has seen any sort of notable LAN action. The last event of course being SAGE where Anexis took the win. Since then, it looks like the community has settled back into the 6on6 format for online tournaments. In order to not rock the boat, we've decided to make our return to ET and this time with a 6on6 offline tournament. Whilst the ET community may be familiar with the name "ET Masters", I'd like to clarify that it is in no way connected to the previous tournaments.

Read on for all the available information at this time.

Essential information overviewimage: logo
Dates: 2nd & 3rd June 2012 (09:00 each day)
Entry: €350 per team of 6
Slots: 16
Prize pool: €3,000

General tournament information[/b]]
We will be hosting a 6 vs. 6 Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory tournament which will a maximum of 16 slots available. Based on the tournament being full, the structure will be 4 groups of 4 teams followed by a full 16-team playoff bracket on day 2. The event will take place on Saturday the 2nd of June and Sunday the 3rd of June this year. Again, on the basis of the tournament being filled with all 16 slots, the minimum prize pool will be €3,000 which will be split between the top 3 finishers of the tournament.

In order for the tournament to go ahead, we will require a minimum of 10 teams to be signed up and fully paid. Information on deadline will be published once the signups have opened. On the basis of a 10-team tournament, the group stage will be 2 groups of 5 teams followed by a 10-team playoff bracket. The minimum prize pot on this basis will be €1,500 split between the top 2 finishers of the tournament.

Venue details[/b]]
The game hall is located in an industrial estate located in the Dutch town of Weesp which is just outside of Amsterdam. We will have 30 computers available for use, 24 of which will be used as tournament computers with 6 being on reserve in case of faults.

There are vending machines on-site for drinks and snacks as well as a kitchen area for hot food. You can buy food tickets which can be used to buy burgers and toasties. Unlike other venues, the smoking area is INSIDE the venue!

Travel[/b]]
The location is very accessible via all taxis, busses and trains. Schiphol airport is around 30 minutes away by car. Full travel guide will be published shortly.

Accommodation[/b]]
We will be partnering with one of the local hotels in Weesp in order to provide all attendees with a discount of 5%. The hotel is a 10 minute walk away from the venue itself or a 2 minute car journey. We would highly recommend booking the hotel through us in order to achieve your booking discount. More information will be published shortly about this.

Parent

Parent
drnkn mnkeys ?
Parent
cu there !
great to hear,

is it the same location as that 1day benelux LAN ?
Cuz if so it might be a bit small, no ?
Same place as E-series!
Parent
if it's in the same room that we were, I have no clue how ur gonna fit 12+ teams in there :D
Parent
I suppose you wouldn't want to be inside seeing as its SUMMER! :D
Parent
summer @ nl cant be trusted, alot of rain ;P
Parent
Warm rain is still good! Bare in mind, it aint much better over here in the UK!
Parent
there was an other room upstairs i think
Parent
Well E-Series was fucking small so how the fuck do you want to get there 16 teams?
Parent
Read my reply to lazio
Parent
back2gaming Aleks?
Parent
I'll talk to the guys but nothing serious atm.
Parent
Not sure if it's the same room as where you played. They have like 5 areas. I ran an 18-team LAN there in December for CoD4 without any problems. LOADS of room.

Check our ESM photo galleries to settle any doubts :) http://www.flickr.com/photos/adroits/sets/
Parent
count #bd.com in :D
Mott4 lets gooooo!
Parent
Friday night poker tournament?
Will pester seanza now to see if we can do this!
Parent
Maybe bro, maybe!
Parent
no discussing gambling online bro, take it to irc lol
Parent
Helll yeah! :>
Parent
no ronner no poker
Parent
SHIT, same weekend as rock im park :/
avi for this !!!
cu there.
Amazing.
Planning on going there.

EDIT:
I see groups of 4 without consolidation tournament, that would mean that 8 teams only get to play 3 games each :(
This is based on 16 teams signing up!
Parent
Poker & drinking contest.
Parent
Sounds great ;)


Didnt see that Playoff Ro16.

As long as I get more than 3 games there, I'll be comming
Parent
Make a team with the same players from the last lan you played!!!!
Parent
16 teams, ALL teams go to playoffs!
Parent
so the group match is basically a seeding game?
Parent
Sup with the prizes?
Parent
sent them out but the keyboard came back, told you on IRC 1.5 weeks ago. Check the adressdate pls.
Parent
cool news
can't afford+it's right before exams and Euro 2012
Parent
Props to Seanza for organising this. We basically spoke for 1 hour last night and within that hour of discussions he decided to book and finalise the lan. I love the way he works!

In all seriousness I would like to help any teams and or players out for this. I know i have messaged a few before this newspost went live, but i really want to maximise the signups for this and i think its time that the COMMUNITY steps up and doesnt just watch the "highskilled" teams turn up and play. Contrary to what many say and believe, these tournaments are great fun to attend and socially they are one great weekend. Look forward to seeing you all there!
With my topic, can you make sure spam gets deleted as I dont have any rights.

jumaaalauta

Parent

Hmmm, 6on6 LAN. Not sure if I'm available over that weekend :(
Whatever plans you have, change them.
Parent
sc2 tourney? king of crossfire for the lolz
Parent
Its work. Not much I can do to change :(

Shame. Enjoy though!
Parent
They have this thing called Holiday allowance in most companies.....
Parent
Yes it exists, but when you're alone in a department and know that over those days there is lots of work, + my only colleague that can cover for me is on leave over those days. literally.... no chance!
Parent
pft sick day imo
Parent
someone wants to see me :P
Parent
of course however i wont be there mate
Parent
everyone wants to see you there! :D
Parent
Well make sure you are! :)
Parent
Too bad mate.
Would've been nice to meet you again ;)
Parent
yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
great stuff, unfortunate as I'll be surfing in south france that time. Enjoy lads ;)
neeiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin :(
Parent
which city ? p:
Parent
Seignosse. It will be the german university championship from 26th May to 2nd June with around 1000 Germany students rolling that place
Parent
Lucky bastard! Seignosse - Hossegor is an awesome spot (with loads of chicks hehe). Enjoy :)
Parent
Looking forward :D Will be cheap aswell. Around 300€ for the week including bungalow, surf, travel and pardyy
Parent
Oh please... I'm so jealous right now :p I spent 3 weeks there 3 years ago with some friends and I did the exact same things. Best holidays of my life.
You won't regret it :)
Parent
yea :D Was in Moliets-Plage for two weeks once already. Guess that is similar :p
Parent
Kinda yeah, but Seignosse/Hossegor's surfing spot is way more known than any other French one. It means more opened areas to practice surf, more chicks and more parties :p
Parent
uuultra ;D
Parent
spend money on tomorrowland > this

tMoe need full support sponsor pmme
there are better festivals than tomorrowland (imo) :P if you're willing to travel atleast (and even in belgium aswell)
Parent
sonnemondsterne!!
Parent
looks like a good festival, eventho I had stuff like Exit Festival, Outlook Festival, Sun & Bass and my personal favorite Dour Festival in mind

(eventho last year @ dour, 4 out of 6 days rain -> whole camping + festival area = big pile of mud. still best week of my life tho)
Parent
i liked it very much! it was like a wonderland for techno enthusiasts :)))
you would like to come?
tomorrow they post the first big part of the lineup.
Parent
depends on the line-up but its very unlikely that I could go

not a bad lineup at all. :) tho I prefer dnb over other electronic music! and i've seen almost every performer on the line-up thats attracting to me :P

also I try to avoid every festival that has Skrillex on the lineup, so that's a definite no-go!
Parent
yes thats what many people saying...
the most fans of SMS dont like that guy :/
Parent
sziget > all
gg bb
Parent
when you like that kind of music then tommorrowland is quite decent.
Parent
Seanza, a true legend indeed! Thanks for the effort!
Beware, BelgiumEUNd coming
Are you allowed to bring your own food/drinks (especially beer)?

And with a kitchen around I call out Waki for a massive cook up!

Real life/time "wat r u eatiN?"

Cu there (maybe :<)
I don't think it was a problem at my last event there, nobody really asked that question. I'll double-check with the Kaos guys. Naturally, I want to promote as much business to them as I can, everybody wins that way. They get business, ET gets LANs.

If we do allow it, I would ask that it's kept away from the PCs as much as possible. Especially alcohol.
Parent
Yeah absolutely. Just gotta make sure if I have to bring a ton of coins for the vending machines or not :-P
Prefer not to! Poor student is poor :-(
Parent
Confirmed it's fine. Just don't make a mess or bring in shitloads.
Parent
tons? I thought you slim now
Parent
Coins are kinda heavy! At least if you need so many to buy yourself a couple of drinks from the machines and can't pay with paper/plastic!
Parent
easy for Olga and me :P
haha nice!
would be nice to go, too bad i dont know too much ppl from the scene
cu at lan.
exams :(
Nice, might come and have a look :-)
interesting :)
NICE!

CU @ LAN
very nice!
this is nice

hope they can put together really good teams to compete against Anexis :>
any cannabis coffee shops nearby?

and how much does a beer cost?
Amsterdam is reachable by train for 4-6 euros :)
Parent
Do what I do. Pickup on the way to where I am going :D
Parent
Not but there is lots of non-cannabis coffee shops and tobacco coffee shops.
Parent
since the venue is "located in an industrial estate" i highly doubt there will be any in the area.
however, you can just bring a big bag to lan since its not far from amsterdam :PPPP
Parent
Very nice! :D
see you at lan? ;)
Parent
Too right you will :D
Parent
haha beef still goin?
Parent
was just joking : D

but cu there ;p
Parent
haha! cu at lan homeslice! ;p
Parent

Parent
rofl you never had aim pigeon, stp :D
Parent

Parent
Awesome :)
cu there
35 euros by train 4me cu there
welche Bahn? 82 für mich von Hamburg aus :o
Parent
Rheine DB direkt verbindung nach schiphol
Parent
Europa Spezial Berlin - Amsterdam fährt über Hannover & Hiversum. Zu shitty Zeiten irgendwann Nachts (who cares) für 29€ von Hamburg nach Amsterdam.

http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query2.exe/dn?ld=9645&seqnr=9&ident=oq.02246345.1329335961&rt=1&rememberSortType=minDeparture&REQ0HafasScrollDir=1

nur früh genug buchen^^
Parent
gibt es auch i-was zu dem Zeitpunkt oder muss ich 92 Tage warten bis ich das sehe?
Parent
musst warten. Die Fahrten sind halt vorher nicht buchbar und es gibt immer nen begrenztes Kontingent an Sparpreisen. Sparpreise gibts in verschiedenen Stufen. Erst kostets so 29€ dann 69€ dann vollen Preis. Wenn du direkt 92 Tage vorher in die Buchung gehst (ausrechnen :P) sollte es kein Problem sein für sone nächtliche Fahrt den 29€ Tarif zu bekommen
Parent
Und was ist mit der Rückfahrt?
Parent
same story? :D "Rückfahrt buchen" etc
Parent
ok danke <3 ich meld mich nochmal in 15tage
Parent
oK meNtal fahren wir zusammen cu hamburg hbf <3
Parent
haha auf jeden <3
Parent
u should buy boombox and at finals play Imperial on full sound during game!
Parent
Wont be there , gl & hf all! :)
for Germany check DB's Europa Spezial for 19€ from Cologne to Amsterdam (one way). You can book it 92 days before the desired date and the amount of tickets is always limited. So count backwards and make sure to get one of those.

Frankfurt - Amsterdam 39€
Berlin - Amsterdam 39€
Hamburg - Amsterdam 29€
...
damn that's pretty expensive.. I always find the trains outside of belgium really expensive (probably cuz I travel every week for 1,20euro/ride)
Parent
tbh that is cheap as shit for a fast and quality train travel through two whole countries
Parent
he doesn't understand that belgium is fucking small :P
Parent
true but its still fucking expensive :P wouldnt it be much cheaper to hire a car with like alot of ppl
Parent
Depends for me it would pretty much be not that much of a difference but its allowed to be drunk while driving train
Parent
Train in France is fucking expensive this is nothing :P
Parent
fucking france
Parent

Parent

e: wenn du bei der bahn arbeitest weisst ob dann auch gruppen tickets usw auf der fahrt gueltig waehren weil das ja DB zug ist der ins ausland faehrt
Parent
gruppentickets als sparpreis oder normalpreiskarte - ja
ländertickets für mehrer personen, oder das queer durchs land ticket - nein
Parent
DB wie ich sie hasse!

Nice fail at replying :D:D:D
Parent
Really nice!

Too bad ET is not 5v5 otherwise we could have at least 4-5 of these every year :D! ;)! :-)

Hoping to attend but will see... :L >:O :C :I :>
I believe we already gave that 5v5 thing a go and it changed very little Lan-wise.
Parent
sometimes my sarcasm isn't very clear :(
Parent
for sarcasm it or has to be obvious in the scene(which isn't since some say yea 5o5 rules! others say 6o6!)or they have to know you and your pov about 5on5/6on6. If not, sarcasm is like not working on the internet ;)
Parent
I think in this case it very clear.

It's just some people are immune to that.
Parent
It's indeed very clear that he is used to people who laugh at his sarcasm and you've been around a lot with people who make such jokes perhaps. But you have to remind that everyone read it's from his pov, which is "strange?" enough not as you: "it's obvious". But in this case some people should indeed read as well the spam smilies before reacting on things ;P
Parent
as you pointed out, it's a double edged sword. a joke targeted to a small group leaves the rest baffled whether serious or not. I just tend to forget this from time to time.
Parent
Well the ones who know you smiled i hope! Ones who didn't: replied?:P
Parent
pretty much so I guess :P
Parent
thx for adding the smileys bro, now everything is clear :S
Parent
I got it ;)
Parent
still these comments :D 5on5 just brought more opportunities for LAN events that is all, 6on6 does not.

But as ET is only a 1 LAN / Year community now anyway, may as well play 6on6.
Parent
I just find the whole argument hilarious, "lets make ET 5on5 so we get more lans" but since some people actually believed this to the extent that it would actually be so... I guess my sarcasm indeed is misplaced here :P
Parent
indeed, its probably best to bury it along with the "6on6 will bring back all the old players", best to just make what is left of the game and hopefully have a decent lan in june :)
Parent
true, but for the sake of the "brings back players" argument, one wouldve not needed it in the first place if the experiment with 5on5 would've been more rational, instead of forcing whole community to switch over for a long period of time.
Parent
well ask Seanza about it. 6on6 makes this whole thing alot more complicated compared to 5on5. Fortunate for us it seems he has no big issues with running a 6on6 event in that location. But the point behind 5on5 stays the same, just as Merlinator pointed out, nearly noone would go for more than 1, maybe 2, events a year.
Parent
Now arguing whether lans are easier to organize in 5v5 is a whole different matter which I fully agree with.
But as we can see, this hasn't been the main reason for ET's decreasing activity or amount of lans being organized so it's quite invalid argument when it comes down to it.
Parent
You are a complete tool. Always commenting on the same old retarded shit. FYI it was discussions between myself and seanza that got the ball rolling and fortunately seanza is very quick and efficient in what he does. Just to let u know, there are 30 pcs which would allow 3 5on5 games at one time. With 6on6 only 2 games can be played at one time meaning it took some time for me to convince him to host a 6on6 lan. Logistically running a 2 day lan with hopefully 16 teams with a LB in 6on6 format is tight especially as there will be 6 pcs sitting there idle. So in regards to ur sarcastic comment regarding me and 5on5 lans, go fuck urself

Sounds like a possibility of a 3on3 tournament! I'm sure some teams would be found and even pay for playing. Saves you some additional cash on renting, accomodation etc. :-P

However there might be problems with players also playing in the 6on6 tournament. Just thinking about capacity utilisation here :-D
Parent
Backups / 3on3 Tournament / Coverage / Quakelive or other games / Surfing whatnot, it's not necessarily a bad thing to have few extra pc's.
Parent
The 3on3 idea was something i thought about when replying however the schedule will be tight and with various players playing with various teams it would be hard to schedule. Also never thought id say this but kinda agree with decem regarding spare pcs
Parent
Yep. As I said, I was just thinking from the economic point of capacity utilization.
Could have something to do with the stupid economics lecture notes in front of me. Wuargh :-[
Parent
Ah the good old days of economics. The 3on3 competion would have elastic demand imo!
Parent
Fuck those curves and graphs :-D

I can however assure you that you have the monopoly on the LAN currently! However you might wanna watch out for EU competition policy that you don't abuse your market power!
Parent
Oh it was you who made the argument in the first place? no wonder you got so seriously offended and be here all raging and stuff :)

Obviously I respect people like Seanza for they are needed to keep the game alive, unlike hypocrites like you who are too naive to see their actions doing more harm than good.
You convinced Seanza to go for 6on6? A smart move which frankly sounds pretty unexpected coming from you. Lastly, when it comes to PC's, having no backups isn't necessarily a good call, considering one of the Crossfire lans was a big disappointment if one has to play all his games with a laptop @ 0-30 FPS. That being said, even though the schedule might be harder to follow, it does have different pros and cons to it.
Parent
Its funny how you say the likes of me kill the game. I was against 6on6 because i knew it would reduce the activity and amount of tournaments. ET needs a boost atm and i have already put a team of admins together to start organiaing some regular tournaments on crossfire which will hopefully tie in with the lan in terms of creating new teams and maximising aignups. Say all you want about me, but untill YOU actually do anything for ET and the community, you are the only hypocrite here.
Parent
QuoteET needs a boost atm


its nice and all that u think of this, but this will never happen, ET is close to done, stop dreaming about making it huge and all, it wont happen.

ET activity has never been about 5o5 or 6o6.
Parent
master server down-> the end is near
Parent
there's a different master server
Parent
jaymoder dont know shit, same as me!
Parent
actually jaymoders know more about it than you, considering they made the new master server and it's posted on the id et forums.
Parent
well still i guess, most of the ppl starting / installing ET and see there are no servers will just deinstall again!
Parent
see SsAP's comment and read my comment again, especially the part where I mention you doing more harm than good. delusional (narrow-minded) is such a strong word, but in lack of a better one I'll use it to describe you.
"6on6 decreased activity, ET needs a boost, 5on5 is the answer, LANs are far more important than the majority who play online" etc..
Parent
I'm not going to get involved in a discussion between Ross & you, but I will say that he was the one who convinced me to do 6on6. People have been coming to me for 3 or 4 months asking me to run an event and I've declined due to the game not being 5on5. After speaking with Ross, I decided to go ahead with 6on6 since the last thing this community needs is to be split again.

Just because he's been over-confident about the prospects of 5on5, don't give him shit for it. Going by regular team-based FPS titles, he was right about saying 5on5 is better. But, let's not turn this into a debate. The community's too small to be broken up like this :)
Parent
I don't understand this part "Going by regular team-based FPS titles, he was right about saying 5on5 is better" could you elaborate?
Parent
I think he means pretty much every game not called ET is played 5on5 and has LANs that are played 5on5.
Parent
could've just said 5on5 is better lanwise.
Parent
QuoteI was against 6on6 because i knew it would reduce the activity
and here i was thinking that that's what 5on5 did in the first place :P

(if it wasn't just a matter of time anyway)
Parent
I'm there - will book flights as soon as I can.

Could do with a floor to sleep on too...
im there ! avi

but really he won't attend because he is frightened that people will hurt him ;p
Parent
no1 would hurt him : )
Parent
i know a few people that would :]
Parent
oh pks, they just said they would, its against the rules to fight/ try ti injure some1 at the lan centre, club's policy, doubt any1 is man enough to brake the RULES
Parent
say hi toItaly mama
Parent
thats diff, that was ingame. i would snap his neck with a keyboard and hang him with my mouse
Parent
highly doubt that mixer m8 cuz people are so nice and shit on lan lOL nerds
Parent
Avi for this
too bad I wont be able to attend this :(
venue address?

is it at http://www.kaosindustries.nl/ ?
their high end pcs are like my current pc which is below medium
We are partnered with Azerty.nl for our events.
Parent
Also, I've never seen that site lol. Don't know how old it is. I know even Kaos' PCs are fine for ET because they can run CoD4 at around 200 FPS.
Parent
ok good to here
i just read those specs etc are from 2010

sorry for my post
Parent
Awesome :D!
is this the Lan planned by stuart?
Stuart and Adroits? you high?
Parent

Parent
Thinking about it meight!
Parent
Seems like 2 LANs this year then?

Nice to see.
What's the second one?
Parent
stu is planning a lan, but has no location yet
Parent
Hmm, interesting! But I think I got exams that period ;(

Let's see!
yeah buddy

wtf at the scrolling I had to do to get at the bottom of this page btw
hopefully there will be 16 teams attending
sounds wicked, are there any shops near the venue btw? Supermarket or something, cuz vending machines are nice but shops are bettar!!

Also what is the actual name of the venue? Cuz right now i have idea where in weesp it actually is, and i'd like to know for some scouting and shizzle (used to live well close to weesp etc).
if it's the same location as E-Series there's a supermarket within 5 minutes by car I think..
Parent
hmm oki not bad, too bad i dont haz car :<
Parent
good job seanza and ross! cu all there hopefully the times for the games will be reasonable so you can go out and get legless :D
Can't wait to have a real life strafing contest with you.
Gonna roll you like always.
Parent
You're so fast; seen on cam!
Parent
About £240 for UK guys for flights and hotel from the Friday to Monday, not too bad!
Which hotel you looking at? We'll be selling hotel rooms via our site, we're just waiting on the confirmation back from the hotel. We'll be able to offer a 5% discount on the rooms.
Parent
Het Hart van Weesp. Friday - Monday = £149
BHX to Schiphol = £100

Flight has gone up by £10 since this morning!
Parent
That's the hotel we're working with for the discounts. Don't book it yet!
Parent
I won't be going, just intrigued about the costs!
Parent
Get g5 to come. Badest gangsters at a LAN event ever!!!
Parent
Place is not big enough for our ego's. We'd tear shit up... (plus I haven't played ET in 18 months, no desire too either!)
Parent
Shut the fuck up.
Parent
Woah. Easy you big loaf. Go take some steroids or somit.
Parent
I wish you come to LAN so I can smash that british fucking face of yours.
AHAHAH
BITCH
Parent
You'd rather smash my ass you raging faggot.
Parent
Nice pick. Been there a couple of times, place is great quality for the price.
Parent
Lovely little hotel indeed. Food's good :)
Parent
gonna dodge this one hard :<
Don't even think about it!
Parent
exams in june, just like most other students I guess
Parent
same here
but its just for 3-4days. so I will make an exception for this lan :) u should do it too :DDDDD
intelligent students know how to do that :DDDDDDD
Parent
nice calling me and jere stupid :)
Parent
anders leerde ook ni kei hard Jere, dus gewoon gaan!! :D
Parent
A date like that is probably going to rule out everyone who's still in college / university =)

Which 120 Hz monitors will Azerty supply btw?
not finnish students

KRP participating
Parent
that's because none of you work or study and just play games all day ;)
Parent
I was under the impression this was held during the weekend?
Parent
That's because you guys are a bunch of fucking lifeless nerds :D
Parent
geek spook

e: you're fucking disgusting human-like being licking asses

you're a fucking disease, you're nearly everything I despise
Parent
well im writing my exams from 24th july - 15th august
Parent
!ATTENTION TO ALL GERMANS!

Stop translating things literally from German. Seriously, makes me fucking puke.

Parent
Everyone's got an exam on either June the 2nd or the 3rd? I highly doubt that.
Parent
Most people from the benelux do. And since the LAN will be held in Holland, a date like that will surely slim down the number of participants.

Just CTRL+F "exams" in this thread and see for yourself.
Parent
I just find it hard to believe that everyone's got an exam on the weekend.
Parent
XDXDXDDXDXX
Parent
ye if i get a exam the following week (for example the 5th of june) i would prefer to go to a LAN instead of studying to pass my exam...
Parent
..and obviously you can't prepare for the exam earlier than the last couple days before it?
Parent
NOPE, it is just impossible to study before. People will forget everything over the weekend.
Parent
I would certainly do, considering the alcohol :D
Parent
I must be really responsible,but i couldnt enjoy it at all while being aware of my next exams, even more when these are hopefully my last exams :d
Parent
Busted guys allowed to play ?
do me a favor and atleast come to spectate, looking forward to meet with you.
Parent
Move it to July!
Im avi !
BRING ETBOT!
Parent
So any room for a lowbies Girls team ?
How much discount do we get ?
Add an extra -20% and we ll handle the cooking there.

Unless the nice polish team from SAGE decidse to sponsor us again :D
Depends on how hot you are. I'm gonna need some bitches on each arm if you fancy it. boom.
Parent
any coffeeshops in weesp? or u got to go to amsterdam for that?
There are coffeeshops in almost every city in Holland, so I'm pretty sure there are in Weesp :p
Parent
Im pretty sure the law has changed now, and people travelling cant get it in some places. Need someone from NL, to pick me up 10 g's of different types of skunk/ice/caramello
Parent
ask Tw1zZt, I would do it myself if i wouldve been there but its my bday that saturday
Parent
its still in discuss mate nothing has changed yet. ...

I live 5 minutes from Weesp. ..

There are 2 cofeeshops in Weesp both sell shit stuff...

IF you want some nice stuff better get from amsterdam ;)
Parent
we'll i want the best availible i want to be knocked out everyday, stuff that gives a amazing buzz will help my performance ingame and make it a much better holiday, Anyone going to the Lan that would pick me up the best shit or meet me at the Lan center and get the train with me would be cool :P
Parent
What do you prefer ? Indica or Sativa?

I dont smoke Indica its more relaxing stuff and for pail relieve that kind of shit ...
I prefer good Sativa > Amnisia haze / Supersilver haze / g13 / lemon haze

You should try g13

or try HASH > Isolator that will do it ;)

But isolator is expensive 30/40 euro > 1 gram
But its rly heavy stuff ;)

MDMA CHRISTALS + ISOLATOR best combination ever :))

Iam living in Amsterdam i can show you some nice cofeeshops which has good stuff and also cheap price :)
Parent
lemon haze is one of my favourite types i have tried, i havnt tried Isolator yet atleast the proper stuff in AMS, I like the really smelly tasty bits that leave a lovely stone and a nice high :P. Amnesia was pretty wicked last time, g13 was amazing :D. Blue cheese and blueberry strawberry shit are wicked :D
Parent
try hashish > bong or isolator but i dont think you can play with that et :P hahaha ;)

its gives a nice ENERGETIC feeling :O)

most people combinate it with xtc/mdma after the pill or the christals are working out they smoke isolator or bong
Parent
nothing is comparable to jack herer, get some and you'll thanks me later
Parent
Jack Herrer is mostly spreaded :O) normally it isnt that strong
Parent
from my personal experience, its one of the weed that blew my face off when i lighted it
Parent
you should try diesel haze best upper i eva smoked :))))
Parent
diesel sour =/= diesel haze or from a same strain? because I got some sour diesel growing up at some friends since few week

i forgot to talk about sour diesel, first time I got my hands on it, after the smoke i fell like a baby in bed :p
Parent
it depends also on the way you grow it. Diesel Sour can also be indica plant i dont know about that....

But diesel haze is a good sativa :) RLY ENERGTIC
Parent
looks close to this what is growing atm: http://www.cannaweed.com/upload/server8/2fd95.jpg

except that I have more space and there is less plants lol

but Im just looking how its done, im not the one growing, I have no experiences in this
Parent
sorry man gisteren was ik egt fucking slecht ....

Maar geef me wat tijd dan ben ik weer terug ;)

Nieuwe muis is wennen en die kk sens verandert hele tijd man. Kapot vreemd ik verander mijn sens niet eens he en soms heb ik gewoon een ander sens wtf man.

Kanker steelseries xai alleen maar reclame maken en een kk dure muis terwijl het zo kapot slecht is.

Ik wil mijn mx510 weer terug :(

Vanavond ff warre ;)
Parent
geen probleem, je zou beeter een andere mx510/518 zoeken!

en sorry maar mijn neederlands is wel slecht :D
Parent
Btw, is it ET only or also CoD4?
I want to say the answer is in the name but that's not a bad question to be fair! :P
Parent
Well, it kinda is, but his last LAN included CoD4 aswell, so :p
Parent
would be cool with some photos, but QQ: how much deskspace? thx
We will have 30 computers available for use, 24 of which will be used as tournament computers with 6 being on reserve in case of faults.

Not enough pc's I guess, if 10 to 16 teams need to be able to play & setup..
u made me laugh hard.. watch the schedule^^

u think these guys are hosting a lan their first time and are too dumb in maths?
Parent
I don't think...
Parent
I ran a LAN with 34 teams with 40 PCs and 3 days. I'm confident I'll be able to run a LAN with 16 teams with 24 PCs and 2 days :D
Parent
any news about Accommodation & Registration opening with payment infos (you will get insta 350€ :P)?
Waiting on PC partner right now before we will allow people to pay anything. Once we clear the dates with them, we're all good :)
Parent
COVER YOUR BUMS, ERE HE COMES
Nice too see that there is a new lan coming but not sure if i can make it this time since i don`t play that mutch anymore.
I am avi for this. Real busy at the moment though and can only start playing end of May.
