BATLL III( Bay Area Team Liquid LAN III) Saturday, June 5 Where:Eudemonia - Berkeley www.eudemonia.net2154 University Ave Berkeley, CA 94704 (510)883-0814 When:1:30 PM ~ 12:00 AM Cost:You’ll need $16 for the LAN and about $10 for dinner. I will see if I can get a reduced rate if we have enough attendees! + Show Spoiler [History] +We're going to be having another LAN on Saturday, June 5! The LAN Center has Starcraft II and we likely will have a Starcraft II tournament. To people without beta keys, you can get a chance to play Starcraft II off other people's keys (I have a few I can let people use too). I think the LAN center may have improved its steam too so we can play some more casual FPS and stuff like that too if we want. Hopefully we can get a discount deal and stay past midnight and possibly reserve the entire place as an official "event" for Eudemonia, but we'll have to see how many people we can get to come. Hope you can all come and have some fun now that school is out (For the UCs at least!). Some people may have left already for summer vacation, so I'm thinking about holding another LAN a bit before school starts. If we get a smaller turnout we will probably be more UMS / fun heavy than tournament heavy. We will have the dinner as well, which should be fun as always, and we can decide where we should go. Overall this will be a fun relaxed event and I hope everyone can come. A lot of people just graduated and this may be their last Berkeley LAN, so make this one the best! Berkeley represent!  Hope everyone can make it!

The first phase of beta is apparently ending on May 31st. I think I'll change date to memorial day weekend but the LAN center said that might not be the best day, probably since some of you guys will be leaving for the holiday. What do you guys think?. Alternatively, we can just wait until June to have this or just have a BW LAN
|
a lot of people are graduating :<
oh nooooooo
|
i can probably come.if were gonna play UMS can someone bring maps. lol last time we were struggling to find maps on iccup.
|
Ya, it's annoying that we can't use USBs. But seriously I wanted to have a little SC2 action too, since I asked and they have SC2 on their computers. That would increase the turnout a lot too. I was hoping this could become a semi-big event so that we can become an official event and when we go out to dinner we won't have to switch computers when we get back. Well, I guess we could get a few people even if it's just BW!
|
i cant make it memorial day weekend, but would like to come. alot closer then Sunnyvale
|
i never understood why i didnt find this till recently
|
|
So, you guys want to still do this or have it later in the summer? Post if you think you will come
|
I want to come especially since starcraft 2 will be there. But i think i work that day. Doesn't seem like many people are responding to this though. Probably because of school.
|
Well, the problem is that SC2 will not be there; the first phase of the beta ends on June 1, so unless Blizzard restarts beta within four days, SC2 likely will be down. Which is unfortunate due to the timing, so maybe having an August LAN instead may be a better alternative.
|
|
BETA EXTENDED. LET'S DO THIS. PUBLICIZE THIS!
We need to make up for the LAN B4 Time which was a bit un-exciting last time
|
WOOOO LETS DO ITTTTT
I'm down. My bro is probably down too
|
Yeah let's go! I sent PMs to a lot of people and hopefully we can get this thing to go :D Post updated with new confirmations!
|
I'm interested, but I think I'd need a ride from Cupertino/San Jose area.
|
T.T every other UC ends on the 10 which means the 5th is the weekend before finals
|
T_T Dang. Well, I'm planning to have another one in August sometime, so hopefully that will be a good time for people too We'll be losing a lot of people as they graduate but we should still probably be able to pull a good turnout in August.
Did you go to south bay one? You live around there right
|
sounds good. yeah south bay. I dropped by but it failed pretty hard it was right after patch 13 went out
|
I'm surprised at how few people have responded to PMs ;( But most of the time people confirm like just two days ahead in Berkeley XD.
|
I can finally make it to one of these. Looking forward to it.
|
ok now all thats stopping me from going is money, but i will try my hardest to go
|
noooo, unfortunately, I told my bro about this, and he said he has plans to go to SoCal that weekend so he won't be able to make it :S
|
Ah man oh well, there's always next time :D Are you leaving Berkeley after this summer?
|
I actually already moved back to San Jose :S
Anyways, so pumped up fro this. Ima try to get some of my other friends who I got into playing SC2 to come too~
|
Nice, we gotta get some good LAN action! I really hope we get a decent turnout. Trying to get Sherwin to come but he hasn't responded T_T. A lot of people aren't coming because they aren't out of school yet T_T
|
now all we hope for are servers not crapping out
|
Haha I think they might be good, I'm hoping this new patch will help things a bit. It will be sucky that we can't download R1CH's UDP Blocker to help a bit too but oh well How was the south bay LAN with all those server problems? From what I've heard seems like it still was pretty fun?
|
uhh i got to meet some people, but i didnt get in a game of sc2 and i got roflstomped in the bw tourny so yah it was a little disapointing
|
I'll try to bring video camera again and maybe if I have time I'll get some highlights from some games and make a small highlight video of the event Everyone try to get the word out! I just posted it on a lot of forums (got banned from Blizz forums for advertising... lol T_T) so hopefully word gets out!
|
lol wolf, so is moletrap coming? i see him on the tentative list
|
He hasn't confirmed, but I hope he is coming :p do you know if waffles is coming?
|
If i come im gonna be late. Is this still on? I mean patch 15 might be at ANY time rofl
since i might be coming late, i can go home and host all the maps before i head out if needed since eudamonia is like 10 blocks from my housel ol
|
Ya, this'll still happen By the way, I keep forgetting your real name, could you remind me T_T This is embarrassing, sorry!
|
if i get a ride i'll go i guess. dunno if i'll actually play lawl. i suck big time at BW
|
ronald lolol
if sc2 goes down we should play TMA.

|
|
Can't wait to see you guys tomorrow!
|
ok guys 3 hours to lan time lets go
|
|
heading up to Berkeley in like half an hour. my brother will be coming after all
|
Nice, can't wait to see everyone there
|
yah waffles will be there a bit late, he has SAT stuff to do. but ill be there sometime today
|
|
ugh I'm pretty disappointed I wasn't able to make it back there but the mass Raven/Overseer Strat was pretty awesome
|
Haha ya, had tons of fun everyone Really nice to see everyone again and meet new people, and our DotA/CS/SC2 was pretty awesome! So I think I might be doing another one in August or Early September, so be on the watch for that. Btw, if you guys wanna play online or anything just text my phone or something and I'm down to play stuff
|
I really enjoyed this LAN, Eudemonia is the spot. You guys were great, I arrived over an hour late and everyone was still cool. That Colossus killing about 50 of our troops was funny.
I can't wait to go to more of these. I might even go back this month again and play some of their other games available. Oh yeah, the sc2 DotA prank was also hilarious.
|
not the weekend of aug 8th i cant make it but yah that was really fun i had a great time. maby sc2 release party anyone?
|
Ya I won't do one before Aug 14th because I dont get back until about the 13th or something. Maybe we should do Aug 21st, which would be (almost) the one year anniversary of the first LAN! We'll see though, and we also need to figure out if we'd like to have a big LAN, which I could organize to get prizes for, or have another small one
|
aug 21 would be fine its right befr my b-day ^^
|
Hey guys, nice meeting you all at the LAN!! John, colossus killing your troops? you mean.... "three" colossi killing your troops? xDDD Can't believe somebody actually did the fake unit thing, so funny haha
|
Oh yeah, hallucination haha.
|
Yeah I liked it a lot, it is tons of fun. I actually prefer just casual 1v1 dueling style than elimination/prizes, but that's just me and I always come bit late hehehe... That's why I always liked BATLL instead of Lan beforeTime cuz everyone get eliminated just leave early in Lb4T and that's not very attractive...
|
Ya that is really true. I feel like when SC2 comes out though there might be a lot more people who will come to play, but we can still keep the light and fun theme. Occasionally we maybe could do a big tournament, since I think there will be a lot of new players once SC2 is out. I wonder if Eudemonia would be able to support such a LAN though, or if we'd have to find somewhere else.
|
if we get enough people we could probably rent out the whole place and get a nice lan going

But where would all the old fat people go to check facebook/ email people.
|
euphnet might be better, i checked them out and they go for a lot cheaper =\
|
How much cheaper is it? I remember I checked the rates before and the individual fees were more expensive, but maybe they give group discounts and stuff? Or are you talking about renting the whole place... Hmm I'm not sure if the next one should be a big LAN or small still.
|
lol the individual rate there was a dollar less than eudemonia.... and the drive sucks and ron ron, if we rent out the whole thing than we can kick out all the fat white people looking up videos of north korea
