News
It's been a while since ET has seen any sort of notable LAN action. The last event being Adroits LAN where One Pound Fish took the win. In order to bring some LAN action back, we've decided to give it another shot and this time with a 6on6 and 3on3 ET offline tournament.
Read on for all the available information at this time.
Dates: 17 - 19 April 2015
Entry 6on6: €65 per person
Entry 3on3: €35 per person
Entry 6on6 & 3on3: €90 per person
Money raised from sign-ups will be used for the following:
Prizepool:
6on6: 2.000 (based on the raise from sign-ups)
3on3: 750 (based on the raise from sign-ups)
General tournament information
Based on the tournament having 16 teams per format, the structure will be 4 groups of 4 teams followed by a full 8-team playoff bracket on day 2 and 3. The event will take place on Friday the 17 of April until and Sunday the 19 of April 2015.
In order for the tournament to go ahead, we will require a minimum of 14 teams for both formats to be signed up and fully paid.
Venue details
The game hall is located in the wzzrd cafe located in the Dutch town Enschede which is the same place as where the Adroits LAN was hosted. We will probably have 30 computers available for use, 24 of which will be used as tournament computers with 6 being on reserve in case of faults.
Travel
The location is very accessible via all taxis, busses and trains. Full travel guide will be published in a later stadium.
My team is interested - what should I do?

- A team name;
- Lineup;

Another LAN is now in the ET scenes hands, there are the teams and players for this to be a very enjoyable event so lets not drop the ball! Get proactive if you wish to attend!

Also, is there an estimated prize pool for the top3 placements of the 6on6 bracket?
Estimated prize pool for 6on6 is €2000 and for 3on3 is €500.
There were players playing QL tournaments before at LAN...
That still doesn't take away the fact that 6on6 players can sign up for the 3on3 aswell and they can't play at the same time. So you'd need a separate day for the 3on3 tourney atleast even with 8 pc's.
if by ql players you mean at the time i think mAus owzo and some others, that was a very small 1on1 tournament they cramped into free time. gl with that with a full 3on3 tournament.
And there is also Frag`Stealer who pretty much types his cfg in <3
Also alot of guys i heard had the same issues with et being to "old" for those computers, and using tons of settings and tons of autoexecs... that didnt work.
but mostly it was about mad kids fucking up pcs for others :P
so for every1 reading that comment here and is going to attend the lan remember do deinstall every shit that is installed :p
my 5 cents here combined with shit english
:D..
ye pretty sure iam going with highbot :D
6on6 12 teams in groups of 3:
You have 24 pc's available (6 reserves), that means 4 teams can play at once so you can only play 1 group at a time. Let's say you need ~2 hours of time per match(depending on if you allow draws in groups), plus lets say 30 minutes of setup time+ 2 hours x 3 is 6,5 hours per group. times 4 groups = 26 hours just for groups. Brackets are even more horrible because even if you play the upper part of the whole bracket first all the way you still have to swap people around because of lack of pc's. Then do the same thing all over for the lower part of the bracket. Probably smarter maths peoples on here than me to do the math exactly but let's say you need atleast another 30 hours for that. In 3 days I don't see where you plan to accomodate that 3on3 tournament, especially if people sign up for both and you can't run it at the same time.
( i can be wrong on some of the math parts, it's far from my strongest point. but you get the idea)
edit: I'm all down for an ET LAN and I'll attend if the dates are good for me for sure as a spec or a player. But just being realistic scheduling wise, the last lans already had trouble fitting a 6on6 tournament into 3 days, I think you have less pc's available and plan to do a side tournament aswell to cover funding, simply don't see how you plan to do it :P
Wanted to send some information to them.
What is the point of playing a group stage if all 16 teams will proceed to playoffs anyway? Seeding tournament before the LAN runs the same purpose and if you want to ensure all teams more games than just the group games, run a consolation tournament for those who didn't make the playoffs.
Also like adeto mentioned before me, running two different tournaments with mostly the same players in them will likely create you lots of extra trouble. I don't remember participating any LAN where the scheduling would've gone smoothly as planned and I don't think that it's very likely to happen this time either. Personally I'd either fully drop the 3on3 tournament or at least not allow people to play in both tournaments.
e:winner , seeds online -> 4 groups of 4 , 1st and 2nd go to winner playoffs , 3rd 4th go to looser tournament would be great
Lows can't handle the 60/75hz hahahahaa
but if the others folks are still around i would be glad to watch u on ettv :D
nazi admin are on fire
#FOLLOW.ET SOLDIERS, THIS IS A CALL TO ARMS
so..
Sebhes: Does the signup income cover the costs of a bodyguard for me?
My mate, aDman saw your comment and he told me you are good friends. If you accept back-up position I can offer you a place in our professional team. Leave these kids, play with us. Alllleeee urwal!
edit: Teams who sign up may give a preference date. Final date will be chosen based on these votes.
gl with it though
I enjoyed d3, for a while, but once you reach a certain point (i'd say around the time you solo 40's), everything becomes pointless. Speed running rifts for that 1%? Grifts for.. a 2% upgrade chance? Meh.
best money investment i ever had.
there are shitloads of teams who are in need of players
lOL
If biqqz actually gonna do this,I'm converting to Islam.

make the 3on3 or 1on1 tournament 1day event with playoff bracket only, no losers bracket. Force longer skill maps for each stake untill the final where you can pick your own map. There will be many players with big egos like myself thinking they can win. it can start at like 6-10pm and end 3-4am.
e: Make it 2on2 tournament with mp_sillyctf (the best map ever). like this: http://www.crossfire.nu/news/1999/desu-are-the-team-dignitas-et-2on2-cup-champions
6on6 or 5on5? I prefer 5on5, there is a lot more action in that format, also gotta aim hard and not to selfkill to longspawns :D. But yeah it's gonna be 6on6.
Best idea on the last day of the year, good job Matias !
Also should be good to stream a lot of the games if needed, would be happy to do 3on3 also if no one else was avi :) might have a small idea in terms of raising extra prize money - I guess that would be dependent on sign ups though.
PS one thing, imo do NOT do reduced sign up if people sign up to both 3on3 and 6on6. I doubt getting 3on3 players will be a problem if you have 6on6 players - better to have more prize pool for both =)
And I need a fokin flight support so I can stream from Enschede, yolo take dat shit in the wall"

seriously, this made me cry. And some actually belive it will happen.
Top two teams of the group go to playoff bracket, bottom two to consolation bracket. That way all the teams get about the same amount of games.
Removing prizepool would definitely decrease the level of competition and I think it might even decrease the amount of sign ups.
Personally I can say that every LAN trip I've made has been a blast and each time I would've probably played better in the tournaments if I went there with just the games and competition in my mind (read: not getting wasted to the point of being ridiculed by the whole community). However I wouldn't travel to NL from Finland just for a regular meet up with ET guys, because it wouldn't be nearly as special as it is when you also get to compete.
edit: Also if you just want to come there to have fun and meet people, you don't have to pay the 65€ anyway. Assuming that spectating is going to be free this time too, you can just come there for the fun and giggles without having to pay any entrance fee.
But hey maybe you're right and more people feel like it's necessary to have a prizepool.
lololo et lan on my birthday?
gl to everyone
Have you discussed prices with wzzrd?
Are you fully aware that wzzrd has like 8 pcs now and their desks are longer in the building?
Good luck. Any more questions you have fire them my way
We have discussed prizes with Wzzrd.
Wzzrd has no more PC's in their building, we rent them from another company. They have enough chairs and desks to facilitate us.
Casters/Streamings?
Have wzzrd set a minimum amount to be spent behind bar to have the place subsidized?
-mental
-finns care about bar stuffs
Imagined all sightings of you being people looking at your butt #nohomo
avi for the lan
So once again
edit: lol'd at the lineup, those two poles are the only known players Karrde ever got in touch with. How sad.
Thanks.

This won't happen. Good of you to try, though.
Does this mean if your 6on6 team wants to form two team to 3on3 they can do it both in entry fee of 25e? To clarify 'xD trickjump team 1 (me, seb and tam) and 'xD trickjump team 2 (eddo, tele and sner) all have to pay that lowered fee?
sebhes gonna have that beer then :)
E: Also ardberg 10yo whisky with me if they have that there
glaub ich flieg da nur jff hin wenn es was wird

NOSTALGIA IS KILLING ME GUYS
Zie je daar, copain x
Then when all teams are registered sell them to raise more money
Will be attending.
Attending to bash faces that is.
Too old for comeback thou :(
living in NL
When comes to ET they had some decent final placements tbh :p
jst make like 6 teams tourn or smth... even if its just one day cup or smth im sure lots of these ET players would have some fun playing it as well.
I have no clue about that wizzard space but i supose it has space for all of us right? I belive RTCW players dont care that much about prize pools etc... i dunno maybe its just a mirage but i have this feeling that its possible. Way possible.
CAVE !!
P.S. -> H2o will attend for sure
take a look at this and tell me if its random... i dont know who you are and i dont even care but i suppose even you can recognize some names here.
http://www.rtcwcup.com/competing-teams.htm
http://www.rtcwcup.com/teams-reich.htm
RtCW was way more interesting then ET in 2014 and proved there is still a lot of interested ppl on it. If this admins dont want to organise it because they already have a lot of stuff to think they could, at least, try to find a 3rd admin to organize the RtCW part like merlinator or smth.
So unless there is no space enough for every one, i see no reason to not try the RtCW lan together with this one since there are a lot of ET players who played RTCW in the previous year.
And played a LOT...
You want one bad enough? Do it yourself. Don't burden others with your pipe-dream.
Anyways not up to me but sebhes and timbolina i guess. Maybe you should prepare a plan and show them what you got. :D Much easier to ask for something if you got some sort of scratch of an idea what you want to do instead of just suggesting things without anything to show.
Nothing away from you and wzzard cafe can held 200 persons I thought.
confirmed
http://www.edenhoteldebroeierd.com/
Right now could get rooms from De Broeierd for pretty cheap, but it's non-refundable so don't wanna risk it in case the LAN doesn't happen. It's a great hotel (been there twice), but the normal room rates are quite high.
booking.com
less than 230e pp for 4 nights (3 twin rooms)
we paid for 3 nights 65 euro per person really cheap and we had a pool tho :D
also, phyZic@LAN?!?!?!?!
Hf opa
Might come and spectate if it's going to be held.
(and gib)
I'm not telling you to be paranoid, however, this has in the past been a trap for me (and others I've known) when being too honest with "superiors" :D you may of course be lucky to have a genuinely understanding boss, just be warned that sometimes they're nice in order to get easy information & answers.
Might stop by for a day and a half or something, if this LAN actually happens.
Also, have fun trying to get Potter to install ET :^^:
nurd
Joop, hayaa, spho en Ati zijn er ook weer af en toe :}
Random Facebook post in Crossifre about a LAN, I was quite suprised. And seeind idle.ee there :O
Good luck. Fuck the prize pool and lower the attending cost.
I am here as always to help a good and motivated team to go and attend the event as
Just contact me ;)
