LTT LAN Party anyone?

Keen_Interest

Posted

So on the Live Stream week before last, I think, Slick brought up how geeks don't really come together that often anymore and that LAN parties are becoming less frequent due to the rise in online gaming.

 

So I was wondering would you guys be willing to travel to Canada or the USA for a LTT LAN Party? (The USA probably makes more sense, because international flights there are SO much cheaper.) 

 

If so, what sorta stuff would you like to see? What games? Ect. 

 

Cheers.

 

PS 

 

I do get that to an extent it would depend on the time year due to peoples work and schooling, but in theory.

A massive Minecraft LAN party doing a Hunger Games mode would be amazing.

 

Maybe BF3 if the party is big enough, CS:S/CS:GO(CS 1.6?), Halo:CE, classics like Quake...

 

I can't travel, I don't have money...

Sorry to hear that.. I just noticed your ' Sontaran' label thing. Is Dr. Who aired in the US?

I would love to but I'm pretty much busy year round because of college.

Well I guess not, but I just never really thought of it as something many Americans would watch, because of all the types of programs made in America. I guess I should endevour to have a more open mind. :)

I would have to say no. But I still think you guys should host one!

I live in Asia, flight tickets to the US would cost me a fortune. Plus, im a college student doing part time job as a IT technician and system builder.. I dont really have that kinda money...

The Internet is invented by cats. Why? Why else would it have so much cat videos?

I'm from the UK, but quite possibly, if I could find the money, I'd just do the LAN and then make a holiday of the trip, or maybe the other way around..

Some news for you guys. Soon, probably toward the end of this year I plan to start doing a few games in groups. Halo CE, DayZ. I probably won't host them but I'll certainly be down to play against some of you guys and organise things. :)

why not do an internet LAN... rather then going somewhere for this seeing this is a international site and it would be easier for people.

Im more than happy to go to a UK based lan, but i feel traveling to the USA and bringing my computer is pretty unreasonable :(

Im considering buying a vent/mumble/ts2 server so people can get together, talk and play. Maybe this is something I should discuss with the mod/admin teams. (does the server running the forum have the capability to run a server?)

I'd travel to the us, but having it in Canada makes more sense (since LMG is operated here). :P
