i34 Seating/Booking Arrangements

[Chalex4]

http://www.atkcommunity.com/banners/news/multiplay.png

I have just booked for i34 and this is the area that we are sitting in:

Section: Other Games (purple)
Row: W

I am currently sitting in W-18 which is about in the middle of where we are going to be seated. We are going to be taking over all of the right half of that row so please get booked up ASAP before anyone else takes your position!

Please discuss below who you would like to be seated next to and make sure you let us know when you have booked.

Seating Plan - REVISION 7:
http://www.atkcommunity.com/chalex4/i34/seating_7r1.png

NB: This is a VERY early version. It is your responsibility to add yourself to the full seating plan here (http://i34.multiplay.co.uk/seating/).

Also, if you are creating a new Multiplay account, make sure that your clan tag is "|ATK|" (no quotes).

[Chazlene]

I'm fine with that position, not sat next to same person as last time and sat with someone I haven't met yet.

I should be booking tonight after my guitar lesson or tomorrow.

[Isphera]

Awesome.

[Hutch]

Probably booking tommorow. rents say I can go.

[ez64]

Im happy were im sitting, a lo ha Cillit Bang and Chalex!

Disclaimer: ez64 neighbours get free untainted supplys of beer delicious beer.

will book and pay asap.

one question are any of us going EAS? if so im up for it.

[Chalex4]

At this rate I am hardly going to have to make any changes to the seating plan :). Yeah, I am going EAS to grab the best tent space for us all and get my servers running :D. BTW don't let Hutch get his paws on any of that beer lol.

[ez64]

ok meet you there at eas £64 to £79 isnt bad for another lan day IMO, Ill probs be sleeping the warm/ac car but if theres one big community tent that would be a laugh.


Payment recieved successfully, thank you. You will receive an email confirming your payment shortly.

[Chalex4]

Revision 3 is now up. Quite a few people have been moved so let me know if you are unhappy with where you are. Obviously, once Marshy, GaryGK and Stalker have been confirmed, there may be some more changes.

[Isphera]

AFAIK, a few people are going on the EAS day, but won't buy and will just camp outside the day before, just to get the camping space. This will be good for sport and playing with Colonel's Wii.

[Calneon]

Does Hutch smell?

[Hutch]

No I keep my bodily functions to myself

[ez64]

AFAIK, a few people are going on the EAS day, but won't buy and will just camp outside the day before, just to get the camping space. This will be good for sport and playing with Colonel's Wii.

Oric has just turned EAS into "GET READY TO PLAY SOME FOOTBAL!"

Im not atheltic in the slightest and break easy so I may just have to watch or do a insane amount of cheating.

"Theres no trucks in american footbal" :p

anyone up for my Vectra on the 4X4 track if they allow ill be taking it on there, remember to save some money for other fun as quad bikes probs will be there and paintballing in ATK shirts would be awesome.

[Snerfs]

I only have some cleanin to do and i can go

i can also confirm that GarkGK is still going and that he knows of Multiplay.co.uk

[Chazlene]

hey, hey, hey, I'm not sitting next to Hutch, for the obvious reasons and because I'd prefer to sit next to someone I haven't met yet.

[silentlord.2008]

i am goin :), am so happy my dad let me.

could some1 help me carry my pc to the place or i will send it, and also could i borrow a tent as i don't have one, if not i will get a m8 to lend me one.


i am there on the 7th so should be fun. i am not playing football.


Not saying this to screw up the plan but me and my dad are talking to my mum about it and i might not be able to go, will say an answer once i know whats goin on.

might have to take a bus instead of a train, witch will suck.

[ez64]

Just give me a call when your outside on the EAS day and ill be more than happy to give a since there are no lifts this lan and most dont have wheel's on there cases like moi ^&^.

[silentlord.2008]

would but i have no numbers :P

[ez64]

will give out closer to the event and via pm's because of bots.

[Snerfs]

if anybody needs me btw,

*number, just realised with ez that he is right*, spam the number and ill get the number blocked

:P

all you have to do is ask

[Chazlene]

That's a point, forgot to say that, everyone exchange mobile numbers, will be really useful once we're there, here's mine:

07946805860

[ez64]

can we make a thread only avalible to i34 atendees so we can post numbers freely?

[Chalex4]

Seating plan 4 has been released and Hutch is no longer next to Chazlene. Since the LAN is quite a way away in August I will give out my number closer to the time.

[Hutch]

Darf ich in der mitte sitzen?
Ich will neben EZ64 sitzen um ein lustiger erlebnis zu haben.

[ez64]

Do I may would avoid sit in that? I want to sit next to EZ64 to have around an experience funny.

translators suck......


join the neigbourhood of awesomeness at will, you shall be missing out chazlene ^&^

[Isphera]

Since the LAN is quite a way away in August I will give out my number closer to the time.

I will PM my number the week before.

And lol at the translators.

[Chazlene]

Just a thought, since we're going to have quite a large presence at i34, about 14 people, don't you think we should enter a tournament? Might seem that we're admitting we're shit if we don't.

[Colonel Mitch]

Last time me chris and freddie didnt get EAS but we were allowed to set up tents etc, just not enter the halls. as we live so far away we dnt reely see the point in paying the extra for EAS if we can set up our tents n outdoor stuff the day before without

[Hutch]

Might get EAS. Also we should have a BF2 Pilot competition. Testing flying skills including dogfights, landing, flying through tight areas etc.

[Calneon]

Myself and Trigger would definately be interested in entering one of the tournaments. We could do CSS, TF2, CoD4.

[Hutch]

most have css, tf2 and cod4, except the tourneys for CSS and Cod4 will be full of people who have no life or soul and are lyk uber pr0 nd cnt spel 4 der livs. TF2 we have a chance with as the game mechanics allow noobs to kill people.

[Snerfs]

booked W-21, got it and going, ROAD TRIP :D

[ez64]

is it just me or is everyone past W-21 ages away from us all.

as in there on a lower row and to the left.

[Hutch]

No, same row, more to the right.
Could I please have 16 as I really want to sit next to ez64, he's my rock.

[ez64]

Its true me and hutch have been engaged since last year, we thought it only fitting to release this information before i34 to make everyone else uneasy.

[Hutch]

I34 will be our honeymoon you see, keep us together and you won't hear as much angry frustrated sex in the tents next to you.

[ez64]

So were not just going to do it in the town center then?

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2008/03/22/norgy122.xml

[Hutch]

Thats not very befitting of a telegraph reader now is it?

[Vicious Horizon]

Bwaha at the telegraph, damn i wish i could go to i34, maybe next year... I'm gonna save up for some 1000 quid gaming laptop, just because I'm tired of desktop computers, and they aren't as bad as you think...
Do you have to bring your own computer or can you nick one from the event?

[ez64]

The best bit of that article had to be

"a newly fitted sink had been smashed"

OH NOES!!!11 one

[Hutch]

what ever floats your boat hun... sinks are good to lean against.

[Snerfs]

hey ez, don't forget the drinks, :D

[ez64]

Infact scrap it I want to be able to drink moderatly without having to drive every night and sort out everyone getting there.

its just the fact that MPUK screwed us by charging more for a hostel than a 3 star hotel with a jacuzzi for four nights.

Hey im looking to share a hotel if anyones interested, not the overpriced tat on the site but a hotel thats really near and would be able to get to by my car.

for 4 nights its either

£248 for 2 people so £124 each which is cheaper than multiplay by far and a hell of a lot nicer.


This room contains 2 single beds.

Room Facilities: Shower, Bath, TV, Telephone, Toilet, Bathroom, Heating, Tea/Coffee Maker, Hairdryer, Wake Up Service/Alarm Clock, Trouser Press, Work Desk

Breakfast: Full English breakfast is not included and costs GBP 10.95 per person.


or £328 for 2 people for four nights so £164 per person with

Room Facilities: Shower, TV, Telephone, Jacuzzi, Toilet, Bathroom, Heating, Tea/Coffee Maker, Hairdryer, Wake Up Service/Alarm Clock, Trouser Press, Work Desk

Breakfast: Full English breakfast is not included and costs GBP 10.95 per person.

and im sure we could fit 2 more people or even 3 on the floor since my car is a 5 seater so that would bring costs down insanley even with our own shower and jacuzzi.

I dont mind sleeping on the floor as well.

£248 full four nights option
2 people:£124
4 people:£62
5 people:£49.60

£328 full four nights option(with jacuzzi)
2 people:£164
4 people:£82
5 people:£65.60

if theres any interest give me a shout 5 would probably be too many people though 4 is really the limit with a good amount of space.

[Chalex4]

Ok, I just updated our seating plan to revision 5 since Marshy can't come. At the moment on the i34 seat picker there are only 5 of us. Please make sure that you book and pay ASAP so that your seat doesn't get taken by someone else!

[Hutch]

Booked and paid for, they said I could decide on EAS later on...
Seat W12.

Getting EAS anyway :)

thought I was not going to commit?

[Isphera]

See you all at i34!, ill bring the mud pit and bikins someone else bring the camera for the physical continuation of the Oric-Hutch Chronicles.

In that thread, I was joking, this is not occuring, but the community events should be interesting.

[Chazlene]

I've booked, I didn't get EAS since I'd rather pay less and turn up a day early anyway just to enjoy camping (jokes).

[ez64]

and if it rains, we can pass you food through the heated windows tehehhee.

[Isphera]

We can all squeeze into my van :)

[Paper Tiger]

Ticket ordered and paid for! WHOOP! Seat chosen. W11.

Can't wait!

Hopefully, I'll have a new PC by then... XD

[ez64]

We can all squeeze into my van :)

http://www.apileofdogbones.com/images/uploads/free_candy_van.jpg

Im sure we can all fit into that box :D

[Snerfs]

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA lol ez, but 19 weeks isnt far away at all :) can't wait, im also going a day early like charlie, not going in, just setting up campin n tha

any possibility that i can share a tent with anyone since i will have very limited bag room?

i can provide my own lilo thingy and sleeping bag n stuff

[Hutch]

My 2 man tent is fairly roomy, but the mitch has a huge tent if he is willing to share.

[ez64]

Our tents all within Mitch's city of a tent then? :)

and a little stargate on the entrace.............................

[Hutch]

Our tents all within Mitch's city of a tent then? :)

and a little stargate on the entrace.............................

P90's for all... CHARLIE BRING THE FLAG... OMG BRING THE FUCKING FLAG... We carried it along way, and it gave Kris Cao cancer... take it to the lan!

[ez64]

I have my P90 bb gun /sad

WE NEED THE ATK FLAG!


£60 for a custom flag 153*91cm hahaha.

[Chazlene]

Are you saying the ATK flag aint proper?

Of course I'll bring the flag, it's pinned to the wall above my bed at the moment.

[ez64]

Ah youve got it ok thats fine, have we got a pole?

Hutch do you take rivets? :)

[Paper Tiger]

hmm... Anyone else got space for another camper? I'll have my own sleeping stuff, just need a tent, lol.

[Hutch]

My tent is 2 man so if you want to flag me down do so, just dont fill the tent with crap lol.

[Paper Tiger]

That should be cool. Cheers Hutch
Bring portable speakers and blast Rammstein in the middle of the night! XD

[ez64]

That should be cool. Cheers Hutch
Bring portable speakers and blast Rammstein in the middle of the night! XD


*edges tent away from the mob thats about to lynch you in the night made up of zombie like gamers:eek:*

[Paper Tiger]

Haha, we'll plant speakers in your tent too!! HA

[Hutch]

That should be cool. Cheers Hutch
Bring portable speakers and blast Rammstein in the middle of the night! XD

And So It Begins,

[Isphera]

Is the EZ-Hutch marriage over? :)

[ez64]

Chalex wouldnt approve it. :p

[Chazlene]

It is over, but now there's the Hutch-Paper Tiger marriage. :p

[Hutch]

I AM NOT HAVING AN AFFAIR!!!... Paper Tiger is Daemon's special friend.

[ez64]

YOU BASTARD!

*eastenders closing drums and theme tune*

perhaps today is a good day to die, PREPARE FOR RAMMING SPEED!

[Marshy]

Sorry everyone cant come to I34 my dad is going to meet the people he stayed with as a med studednt and would like me there and yeh i know its like i already tried that one anyway hope i can come to i35 is there is one

[Hutch]

Something I noticed with all our names all together in the multiplay list, HOW FUCKING BORING AND UNORIGINAL ARE WE???!!
Why do loads of people have 4s in their name, and why do a few take their nick name from their own? Added Gary's old nick to prove my point more... but he has learned his error.

http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/7069/umwtfqs0.jpg

[ez64]

Im the first of the ez series, theres 5 of us going ez64/ez65/ez66 and so on.

and I run everything 64bit, and the fact that most registrations for anything including games require 4 letters.

I go by "ez" in the american term or thats what everyone usually shouts at lans anyway.


The Hutchhence thing sort of worked

Charles Hutchhence


hence "Hutch" ^&^

[Chazlene]

So you're moaning at yourself for your nickname being Hutch?

And I only added 42 because Chazlene was already taken when I created an account, even though It said all old accounts were deleted.

[Hutch]

I just noticed a trend... whats the attraction with the number 4, thats all... I thought 3 or 69 would be more common lol.

[ez64]

So you're moaning at yourself for your nickname being Hutch?

And I only added 42 because Chazlene was already taken when I created an account, even though It said all old accounts were deleted.

and of course 42 is the answer to EVERYTHING :p

[Isphera]

OK, 400 i34 seats have been sold, and only 7 of us have booked. The following people need to BOOK AND PAY before 11th April in order to get the 20% discount, as well as make it easier for you to sit with the community at the event. I have also put your allocated seat next to your name. The full plan is at the beginning of the thread. Any problems, post in this thread;


Stalker, W-13
Trigger, W-14
Phantom, W-15
Target, W-19
Cillit Bang, W-20
SilentLord, W-23
Col. Mitch, W-24

[Colonel Mitch]

ok i have now paid and booked and booked seat W 24. i would enter css and tf2 tournys

[Isphera]

Left to do;
1. Stalker, W-13
2. Trigger, W-14
3. Phantom, W-15
4. Target, W-19
5. Cillit Bang, W-20
6. SilentLord, W-23

[VoX]

Oh come on, this is becoming an excuse for posting lol :p.

[Isphera]

Sorry, but it has to be done, and without proper pestering and information, it will never be done.

[Colonel Mitch]

just thought i'd add here - me chris and freddie will bo coming all the way from barrow-in-furness in the north west again to i34 and will PROBABLY have space for 1 more in the car if someone needs a lift whos on the way and willing to contribute toward petrol.

[Colonel Mitch]

im reading the comments i missed and yeah theres space for 7 more people in my tent if chris n freddie dont stay in it again :P so if anyone needs somewhere to stay i have space to offer =]. also again i intend to bring the wii and projector so we can have more ATK wii sports in the tent :)

[Snerfs]

just so i dont forget, if you need any help with the 360, i can provide some accessories ^^

[Isphera]

And if you bring Wii, I have GH3, but I think we have GH3 on 360 with 2 guitars, am I right (1 from Col. , 1 from John)

[Chazlene]

Bah, Oric, let's do the real thing, I'll bring my guitar and you can bring your bass, since I'll get electricity in the caravan.

[Isphera]

You want me to bring an amp?

[VoX]

Dam I so wish I could come now and hear Oric play bass :p.

[Isphera]

Believe me, you don't.

[Chazlene]

I have two, but one's huge and might not work since it's 30 years old, If you have a bass amp you should bring that.

[Snerfs]

i would offer to bring my guitar and amp but my bag space is limited xD

[Chalex4]

Over 600 people have now booked for i34 so those of you that haven't booked and paid need to make sure that you do ASAP. On another note:


All caravans / motorhomes will need to purchase permits from Stoneleigh Park directly. We will be confirming pricing on this shortly but I can say there will be the ability to get a proper power hook up as well if required

This quote was from taken from this (http://forums.multiplay.co.uk/showthread.php?p=739324) thread on the i34 forums. Looks like taking a caravan Chazlene will be quite problematic...

[ez64]

dont worry he will rent it out to some eastern europeans and we can take the roof :)

[Isphera]

Just say its an oddly shaped custom van with no engine. I'm fine with mah Transit.

[Isphera]

1. Stalker, W-13
2. Trigger, W-14
3. Phantom, W-15
4. Target, W-19
5. Cillit Bang, W-20
6. SilentLord, W-23

YOU MUST MUST MUST BOOK QUICKLY!

The seats around us are filling up and it is beginning to become a concern that those seats won't be filled. Please book as soon as you can, because it won't be likely they will be available in the near future.

[silentlord.2008]

i have bad news :( i can't go to I34 my mums says so, but i can goto I35 and i will as soon as it is open for booking. and i will pay for it, will talk to ya all later.

[Chalex4]

i35 is usually in the middle of the term, so why would your Mum let you go to that and not one in the middle of the summer holidays? I usually only go to the Easter and Summer ones, the November one is just badly placed.

[ez64]

Just say its an oddly shaped custom van with no engine. I'm fine with mah Transit.

I was going to sleep in the car but then I realised I would be in secured parking.............

[Isphera]

Chalex, change the diagram to compensate for the fact that SL is not coming i.e put someone I am not going to kill in W-23

[VoX]

Lol, that really narrows down the choices Oric.

[Isphera]

Your telling me...

[Snerfs]

look, i will fill W-23 and everyone moves up, EASY AND SIMPLE!

[Chazlene]

Well I really don't think we should worry about where exactly everyone sits until everyone has booked, which should be before the 11th April anyway, since some people might say they can't come suddenly, etc. Right now we should just concentrate on everyone getting booked so seats don't out and so they can get the discount.

[Isphera]

Point being the people that need to book are either never on, ignorant or waiting for someone else to help them pay. And if we sort it now, people that book after the 11th can just book their seats where we allocate them, since they are enclosed within the ends which we have taken by Piers and GaryGK, and I will agree with you Chaz that someone would have to be pretty stupid to book in between us.

[Isphera]

750 BYOC Seats Booked

tick, tock, tick, tock.....


look, i will fill W-23 and everyone moves up, EASY AND SIMPLE!

Everyone gogo.

[VoX]

Everyone gogo.


Down, set! Texas 36, Cowboy 72. Motion, Motion left, Switchout, single 4-out 2-motion 8379 H-Fake draw block, set purple 73, Z-Motion wide out, Ohio 56, HUT!

[Isphera]

That's my code for everyone to book. If you want a diagramatic version, I can do a step by step translation.

[Isphera]

Just a reminder that you have under a week left to get 20% off i34. The offer ends this Friday (11th April) at 23:59

[Chalex4]

Indeed guys, get booking! I have produced 2 more seating plans since Silent Lord can't go. Please choose which one you prefer:

#1
http://www.atkcommunity.com/chalex4/i34/seating_6r1.png

#2
http://www.atkcommunity.com/chalex4/i34/seating_6r2.png

I realise #2 is a complete swap around but it does seem to fix a lot of the problems. I know that Oric has ideas about this, but for now it would be best if you could just say which of the above you prefer.

[Snerfs]

i like both of them chalex, i had friend round me all time, so all good from me

but i prefer 1 :D

[Chazlene]

I prefer No.2, we'll regret going with a plan that's easier to organise but doesn't satisfy everyone once we're there.

[silentlord.2008]

i am sorry about the not coming, but prents not wanting to let me go.

but if you were goin to next years one then i will love to come, but not alot of people might go

[Chazlene]

Compromise that both Chalex and Oric agree with - Swapping Oric and Daemon around in Chalex's No.1 plan.

[Chalex4]

Swapping Oric and Daemon around in Chalex's No.1 plan.

Sounds good to me. Revision 6 is now up.

[Isphera]

This gets:

Im happy with both seating plan get's a "seal" of approval,

http://www.hickerphoto.com/data/media/40/whitecoat_seal_T3506.jpg

How would you like it, clubbed or fried?

[Chazlene]

Well if everyone else is, look what I just made:

http://www.atkcommunity.com/imagehosting/347fab7219e3bc.jpg

[Calneon]

Booked Paid and Seated.

[ez64]

Booked Paid and Seated.

Good lad!

[Isphera]

Good, now everyone else follow his lead.

[Colonel Mitch]

im happy with seating plan 1 of 2 - (revision 6)

[Snerfs]

only cos u dont have to move piers xD

[Calneon]

Good lad!
Don't patronise me lol.

Trigger and Stalker should be paying today, provided Stalker is gonna come.

[ez64]

was not my intention but im sure I can do better than that ^&^

[Calneon]

Trigger booked, paid, and seated.

[Trigger]

yeah go me :S, and btw stalker aint coming he told me today so u can scratch him off the seating plan. sorry took so long 2 tell u

[Hutch]

Shall I move up to seat 13 then?

[Calneon]

I guess that would be the sensible thing to do.

[Chalex4]

Before I started making the plans, I was hoping to sit next to Trigger but since Stalker needed to sit next to him because he knew noone else, there was no way that could happen. Now that Stalker is unable to go, I could flip a few people to the left of me around, leaving everyone except ez64 and Hutch (obviously) sitting next to the same person as before.

So yeah, I will probably just move Hutch up one, but I am going to think a little more before I cement it. Don't want to break ez64's heart :p, although it would mean that Hutch and ez64 were together like they originally wanted.

EDIT: For those of you that can't visualise it:

http://www.atkcommunity.com/chalex4/i34/seating_7r1.png

EDIT2: Does anyone actually have any serious objections to the plan above?

[Hutch]

Fine, is ok for me.

[Calneon]

Looks fine to me.

[Trigger]

yeah it all loks gd just hopeing everyone else is fine and if there is, well dont blame me :P

[Chazlene]

I'll reluctantly say it's fine with me.

[ez64]

No objections here fine with moi.

[Isphera]

I haven't moved.
Daemon hasn't moved.
Freddie hasn't moved.

I am fine.

[Chalex4]

Looks like we will go with the new revision 7 then :). It is now on the homepage.

[Paper Tiger]

Fine by me. I'm next to someone I know XD So all's good!

[Hutch]

Seating plan related, this seems to be the clan whose ugly mugs we will be able to see through our monitors, and they look like a pretty rowdy bunch of adult gamers... who dont seem to have a general game to play, kind of like us.. I think someone should initiate first contact as these will be the people we will have to talk to for 3 days... also, I believe a FUCK load are going as about 30 went to i33, and look at the seating plan ATM with those gaps.... TWO huge communities together... uhoh. [DG] clan http://www.dagodz.com/v7/index.php

EDIT: It appears they also change peoples desktop backgrounds and homepages etc to NSFW pics as humourous jokes, so lock your PCs.

[ez64]

first contact LOL

ill bring my vulcan ears.................

[Isphera]

It appears they also change peoples desktop backgrounds and homepages etc to NSFW pics as humourous jokes, so lock your PCs.

By the looks of the pictures on their website, they only seem to do it to each others PC's, not other attendendees. But still, use caution. And when refering to ugly mugs Hutch, you seemed to remain quiet about who your sitting opposite to. You seemed to make a big deal before you were sitting opposite to a female gamer before, why quieten up now? (Not meant in a harsh way - Meant as a matey-type joke)

[ez64]

=Oricalcos;10593before you were sitting opposite to a female gamer

answered your own Q ^&^

[Hutch]

Sitting next to EZ (YAY) as soon as trigger and everyone else shifts to the new seating plan.

[Trigger]

ok ive requested to swap seats with ez so whenever he accepts i should be in correct position

[Calneon]

ok ive requested to swap seats with ez so whenever he accepts i should be in correct position

Same with me, but to Chazlene. Then I think Ez and Chaz will switch to make things right.

[ez64]

done trigger.

allright cheers

EDIT: It appears they also change peoples desktop backgrounds and homepages etc to NSFW pics as humourous jokes, so lock your PCs.

Hey guys how's it going ??

You don't have a thing to worry about. We wouldn't dream of touching anyone else's gear, that is totally overstepping the mark and we all know it.

We do look a bit rowdy on some of those pics I guess, but we're just normal guys who are up for a laugh. I wouldn't say we're any rowdier than the next clan :)

There are only 25 of us coming to i34 so it's a cut-down version of our i33 group. And yeah, we don't specialise in a specific game really, we just play games for fun. We are a friendly bunch, I think the more "pro" clans seem to take things too seriously and as such seem unapproachable, because we just play for fun I think it's reflected in our attitudes towards other people.

Some of us smoke and yeah, we do like a drink, but we're mature enough to stop ourselves getting in any kind of drunken state - especially around so much expensive equipment. We have been known to shout a little during games, but who doesn't when you get carried away? and even when we do we're nothing like that inconsiderate rabble on Floor 1 at i33.

If you need to break the ice ( or as Hutch put it - initiate first contact - makes us sound like the Borg :o ), come and see me! I'm not shy! You'll recognise me because I'm the oldest one in our clan (probably) - and yes, I get some stick about it!

We look forward to meeting you at Stoneleigh, we might even be able to get some games on or something, though we are mainly an "irc chatroom" clan since the UKCCL folded. Having said that, we play a wicked game of Worms Armageddon ;)

Thank you for coming on and introducing yourself. I have looked at some of your vids and you guys look like a fun bunch of people to play with. I share your feelings and look forward to playing you at i34. See you there.

EDIT: I also hope you can help us with some of our video plans :D

[Chalex4]

Cheers for sharing your thoughts Goots and signing up on the forum. Hutch looks to have been a little harsh in his post, especially since he has never been to a Multiplay LAN before. I don't think I had ever been to a LAN where people haven't been rowdy, but it is all fun really. We are all in a massive warehouse after all, so it's not exactly going to be quiet.

I remember checking out the seating plan a few weeks ago and noticing you guys positioned there, and to be honest I was quite pleased with it since I had seen what you were like in your videos and you guys looked like a laugh. I can see us getting on quite well really, since neither of us play matches seriously and just game for fun. What are your favourite games? I will definitely be hosting servers for CSS, TF2 and CoD4. We do have the videos in common (I assume you can remember mine) and I can see an awesome opportunity for some cool community/clan interview type things among other crazy stuff.

Anyway, cheers for posting and see you there!


EDIT: Do you guys have a forum?

[[DG]Goots]

Thanks for the words of welcome guys.

We play a load of stuff really, TF2, CoD4, UT3, WA, CSs, RTCW, FlatOut2, iSketch!, MidtownMadness, CnC3, Act of War etc, pretty much anything really :) We're in it for the social fun as much as the multiplayer gaming.

Yep, Chalex4 I remember your i33 video, very impressive :)

Not sure how our guys would react to a "video interview" as such, we only really made the i33 vids for historical value but I always say you can never have enough raw footage, so I guess whatever happens, happens :)

We are more of a realtime chat group in #dagodz . We do use a forum (a bit) at m3xuk.net, but with being in #dagodz every night, there isn't much left to say on a forum, so it doesn't get used anywhere as near as much as this professional looking one :)

im a noob to IRC, can you tell me how to join it please? :) thanks

btw, POST 150! :D

[[DG]Goots]

Your guy Hutch gave a shout HERE (http://www.atkcommunity.com/showthread.php?t=552) which pretty much explains it all.

We are on the quakenet network, channel name #dagodz when you get it sorted :)

[Snerfs]

Yeppers, got it sorted, thanks goots ^^

[[DG]Goots]

Sorry no-one was there to chat much tonight guys, we often disappear for games. In fact, we use irc as a staging post from which to arrange the games. The beauty of it is that when you get back, you can read up on the conversation missed while you were away.

Like the one between Daemon and Chalex4 ;)

Also, as mentioned elsewhere on this forum, it takes negligible system resources, so you can leave it running in the background.

Anyhow, catch you again sometime, I'm up in 5 hours for work damnit...

[Chazlene]

Yep, IRC is just multiplayer notepad. :p

[ez64]

just a heads up for i34, It did get quite hot in newbury but some of us were saved with USB fans.

If you have one already I reccomend brining it if not orders are going from the guy that sells them every lan.

what do you mean +1?

[Chalex4]

It means that I agree with you. If we had the reputation feature enabled on this forum, I would have given you some positive reputation.

[Chazlene]

Just a quick point, does anyone happen to have a banana suit they can bring to i34? That coupled with Ez's gorilla suit will be quite lolworthy.

Also if anyone has a digital video camera it would be useful to bring it.
