November 29th, 2003

A total of 28 gamers in the basement! Woo! What a good turnout we had. Having everyone in the basement together is great instead of being split up on two floors. The trash-talking never ends. But everyone liked being together for the gaming like this.

The reason for putting everyone in the basement was to leave the upstairs room open for the Air Hockey table that Jason recently bought. It rules. Everyone likes Air Hockey. Jesse came up with the Air Hockey tournament idea and executed it very well, good jorb! We'll be having more of these in the future. The walls around the air-hockey table may not last long. Torgo managed to turn off the dining-room lights with a skilled puck-shot. Nobody up stairs is safe from stray, flying pucks. Especially when they're Lesh-Seeking pucks. Oh yeah, the whiteboard we used for keeping the scores was provided by Keith. He just so happened to be carrying one around in his car trunk.

I decided to award one of the shirts as the Air Hockey tournament prize, which Svarog / pr0nvoznik won.

Unreal 2 XMP (Extended Multiplayer) is a great game, well worth breaking your keyboard over which Blue Brat managed to do. Coming back to your base after 10 minutes of skulking around to retrieve an artifact only to find a fully-manned Juggernaught parked in your driveway will do that. But the balancing & objectives work out very nice. The vehicles are great, and the jumping-jet packs seemed to agree with everyone.

Call of Duty is a great game. The retrieval missions did not go over well at all, they weren't liked very much. Team Deathmatch, however, was perfect. The sniping boards are great fun. We'll be seeing more of this game at our lan parties.

We actually have a favored RTS game! Rise of Nations seems to have won over the people. The usually tedious RTS management has been automated nicely in this game, which make sit more fun to play for the non-micromanagement folk.

We tried Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory again. It went better than last time, but still wasn't very even.

There were some great Quake 3 matches going on. We explored a bunch of the Orange Smoothy maps that haven't been played at this LAN.

And then of course we had our Bomberman tournament. Torgo 0wn3d, he was ahead for the whole thing and clinched it by round 13 of 16. Japi almost got B-point king, but MDGeist and Torgo both focused on kills instead of overall wins once they knew that Torgo had secured 1st place (i.e., MDGeist was killing himself off immediately so he could mad-bomber everyone). A special thanks to Lime Green Goth for drawing a great Bomberman picture for our prize!

Once again thanks for everyone who brought food and stuff to eat. And eat we did, there was some major bellyaching going on around 7:00AM the next morning. With the return of Mark for this netfest, we had our star chef cooking up the food on the grill.
