Hey everyone, this is the first time we are attempting a LAN Party. With the opportunity to host it along side of the Fort Frances Bass tournament we thought it would be a good chance to give it a go.
For this year we are gonna be doing Computer gaming only (PC & Mac); as were not very organized at the moment. This will be just a small event to have fun and get the grounds for what to except for next year.
Lan party will be taking event on Friday, July 23 - Saturday July 24 between 12:00 pm - 8:00 pm
So if your interested in coming you will be required to bring your own computer (pc or mac) to the event. The following games we are looking at playing together are
While its technically not until tomorrow, why not start a bit early?
The founders just want to thank everyone who has stuck with us from the start, anyone who has joined along the way and anyone who has just recently joined up as well. This community couldn't have gotten to where it is now with out each and every one of you, and your tremendous support that you have shown us.
TF2 Party mode has been activated on our servers starting now until Sunday.
Our 1 Year Anniversary is coming up soon so we had another admin meeting. Here is the list of the changes that will be rolled out over the next few days:
To celebrate our Anniversary, we are going to be running the "Birthday" mod on our servers for a couple days.
Medics now start with a uber/kritz charge at the begining of the round (setup maps only) so they can screw around like the rest of us.
We are replacing the Vanilla mod with the Dodgeball mod.
Due to the update that is currently underway for Counter Strike: Source, we are going to add a CS:S server.
Votekick and Voteban have been added to the servers. This may be revoked in the future because we have alot of admins now. Don't abuse this, guys!
Nominate has also been added to the servers.
We have changed the Valve hat mod to Custom hat mod due to recent acts by VALVE. (We got duke nukem!)
That's right! Valve is offering Portal for free on steam currently to advertise the new compatibility with Macs. The link to download is http://store.steampowered.com/freeportal/
Coming from someone who's played Portal, I was glad I BOUGHT the game. Since you have the chance to get it for free, if you haven't played it yet, I suggest you do so!
I want to thank Pretendica for pointing out this should be posted in the News Section
