Re: LAN write-up
Posted By: (GT)Juggler <alex@halogt.com>	Date: 8/1/05 12:32 a.m.
In Response To: LAN write-up (KP) : There was another LAN in CT this past Saturday which I attended, at the house : of GT Juggler. It was a great time and he pulled off a pretty cool LAN. : This lan had a pretty good amount of guys there, I believe there were 19 : most of the day. Yep, 18-19 the whole time. : I arrived fashionably late at 1:30pm. When I got there most everybody was : there and had already setup their systems. I think I saw 3 projectors 2 projectors and : 2 HD TVs, there might've been more displays but I didn't do a large amount : of exploration. When I arrived Furhman was asleep on the floor, business : as usual (though surprisingly, no one put anything on his back this time). : I couldn't begin to list the attendees, there were some regulars there but : there were also several locals and some out of towners that I didn't know. : A bunch of new faces who mostly turned out to be pretty cool. Except that : guy who used his mic to make weird noises in the pre and post game lobbies : the whole day, not realizing that it ceased being hillarious after the : first time, he was pretty much a douche. : This LAN was a pretty good mix of Halo 1 and 2. When I got there it was Halo : 1, they were doing modded maps which turned out to be really fun. When you have good modded maps (not a bunch of blocks and smgs that shoot rockets), it can actually be great fun. :) We then : switched to Halo 2 and played the usual mix of slayer, CTF and KOTH : variants for a couple hours. Then the most fun I probably had was playing : the Halo 1 gametypes that we didn't get to at the last lan: HEH CTF Rox, : Wizard Oddy Rox, Longest KOTH Shotties and BC CTF Pro. They were all a : blast, especially the KOTH match. We stopped a couple times to have some : pizza and then later on to have some burgers and dogs from the grill. : Juggler's dad is quite the grill master. Of note was their soda dispensing : machine, which is just darn neat. The rest of the night was pretty much : Halo 2, with my end coming after a few Halo 1 modded map games (most of : them were maps made for Halo PC/CE and then ported to Xbox). : I had to leave around 11 because I had to work this morning, but I had a : great time and wished I could've stayed longer. I'd like to say thanks to : Juggler and his parents for letting a bunch of vagrants invade their home. : Everything was excellent and I can't thank them enough for their : hospitality. You are more than welcome. Hope to see some of you guys again in the future. Not sure how that will work out with college but I will meet up with all of you again. Thanks to everyone that came and drank all my bawls. Bastards.
