Since we have 38 people signed up to play and I'm sure a few of them wont show and a couple others are showing but I'm not 100% they are playing in the tournament (sadistx? hazelynut?) we should be able to fit everyone on at once so we should be straight for everyone to arrive at 11am-noon with tournament starting at around noon or so.

worst case is we have to hold a couple groups while early groups play. We will build the groups as people check in tomorrow.

It's important to note that anyone coming and not playing in the tournament will not have guaranteed computer access due to space/pc limitations.

edit : oh wow we both posted at once LOL

Torenhire we need to make an executive decision, do we break it up into morning and afternoon groups or do one massive double elim bracket ?

so far we have 39 signed up, a bit too many to all play at once considering we have like 35 pc's or so and I think the lan center reserves 5 now so we're down to like 30 that can be playing concurrently.

Isn't an executive decision an on-the-fly decision made by a non-in-charge person?

Seeing as I am the #2 (I am the shit, double meaning ftw) I shall executive my way to saying yes we should do groups. I'd wager we get 5-7 no shows or people who back out, but even so...we cut it REALLY close last time and I'd rather just play it safe. we're gonna be 30+ and that's enough for groups. If we were trying to put like 25 in, it'd be harder to make a choice.

So, that'smy thoughts. Also if you do homestory cup I'll use my awesome government salary to fly in all the top players, but we gotta get Sjow cause he's my favorite Swede. Deal? Deal.

What the hell man, posting an executive decision before I even posted my executive decision. Worst organized LAN ever.

Text me or call me next time, noobface.

Hey I gave you like 16 hours to respond you had to wait to respond at the very minute I figured you'd had enough time... LOL T_T

groups it is, we'll set em up as ppl check in. Hopefully not all 38 show up or we could get stuck with people waiting for pc's...not the worst thing in the world but it can make the lan much longer and have people waiting around alot.

Eh, the more people who show up around 11 the better. I am going to try my best to get our morning groups started by 12. If all 38 show up in the morning, than people can chill in the back or get some warm up games going on PCs that will not be used by people in the morning groups.

Good luck peeps.

It's not supposed to be, but the wifi also sucks. When I've brought my laptop I just plugged in at one of the broken computers.

I found taht the wifi is fasterthan 45 pc's on bnet 2.0 at once. But maybe that was just me.

And its not supposed to be free, just pay the guys up front for the hours you're on it.
