They DO have Broodwar on all their computers, but sadly, they dont have Iccup on it, or have a way of installing it unless you talk to the owners and have them do it for you. But yea, when I dropped by to check the place out the other day to see if they had Broodwar installed, I started playing some US East pub scrub and then like a couple guys started waching and one of the guys was like, "damn, you'd make boxer proud" lulz | ||

1) There are two MAIN rooms that are not closed by doors, each with about around 16ish computers. 2) There are I believe three or four smaller rooms, each with 4-6 computers each. These rooms are closed rooms used for lanning. 3) Friday-Sunday nights are incredibly crowded, but when you go during a weekday afternoon, you can usually have at least two of the smaller rooms and a large majority of one of the big rooms free. 4) The rates are $3.50 an hour, but you can print a coupon for buy one hour, get one free. I have never tried using that coupon for more than once in a day. Also, I don't know if this coupon will help us a ton if we are buying in bulk and are trying to work out a deal with Euphnet. 5) There are happy hour rates, but I always forget what time they are at. You might have to call them to figure that out, or check their website. 6) I DO NOT KNOW ANY RESTAURANTS VERY CLOSE BY! I usually just hit up Taco Bell or El Pollo Loco, both of which are right next to it. Could someone possibly yelp it? (Sorry, I'm in Taiwan right now and am about to teach some students how to learn English so this is a very rushed post!) If anyone has any other information or disagrees with some of this stuff, please feel free to post! BTW, COUNT ME IN FOR THE LAN =D, unless it's on August 8th. | ||

Asian ghetto ftw! In fact I propose we all go to Steve's Korean BBQ (place run by mexicans) which is dirt cheap and serve generous quantities and eat the place out. If anyone want to show up earlier I'll tour the campus with you guys if you want. Just make sure it's after 8/15th where I'd be taking my finals for my summer classes and I'll gladly help organize the event | ||

Why can't we just have dinner at like 7/8 and then drive back to Euphnet, most people will have cars anyways I would think. And I guess then find some 24 hour place to kick it after. Since Cal starts at like the 23rd and summer classes are ending a couple weeks before that, and combining that with the poll, I guess we're looking at the 15th/16th? Or if superiorwolf gets back from wherever we COULD have it on the 8th, but I think that might be a little soon. Unless we get our shit together asap Those are all our weekends that we can use before college starts for a lot of people. And then if those don't work we have all the weekdays I guess, but I think that is not preferred by most people. | ||

It's funny that he and his wife both actually talk to them in spanish though. | ||
