Clarity,
We welcome others ready to help out with the LANs.  Renegade is our head person and he would be the best person to address this.  Is there anything in particular that you are interested in doing?

Yeah I didn't read the main homepage- I just found his e-mail address, so I'll be e-mailing him asap.

I'm not sure if you guys have went ahead and made a myspace for NeXus as of yet- I could help with that. I could physically help at the lan events, setting up and such. Also, I could help plan the events.

I've always wanted to be apart of something like this. :)

Eh, a myspace for a lan?

it's a great way to get more people into it. I started a myspace for a clan I created and recieved great feedback from it. We had 450 new members from the time I started it until the first MLG (2 months).

Well, hopefully you can find the NeXus group a fine substitute for gaming while you are back.  I'm sure we all look forward to meeting you.

I know we have a Myspace page. Nexus lan is 27 years old and lives in Middletown, because LAN Lord thought it meant were he lived and his age LOL. So we could use some updating I think. Also Ive been trying to add Nexus Lan events to facebook and invite people as well. So Clarity are you still in Florida and moving up here in August or sooner?

I leave Tampa on August 12th, and I arrive in Dayton. :) I can't wait!!!

Yes I have to agree, myspace is a great place to use for more than just personal home pages.  Its good for SEO towards your main site too.

Arrive in Dayton? I thought you say you are moving to Columbus, or you arrive at Dayton International Airport and drive to Columbus

I think Clarity would be well suited for helping run the console section of the LAN, in all honesty.  She's familiar with MLG rules and their tournaments, as well. :P  Just as long as she can still play though, because I kind've need her on my team. XD

And while I'm all for any one volunteering, be wary of the gas prices up here.  Driving back and forth to Columbus from Dayton isn't too bad as far as time spent (I've been doing it the past year), but the gas prices however are NOT something to scoff at.  It's only been real recently it's been hitting my wallet hard enough to make me have to cut back and re-do my routines a little.  And my car gets 35mpg.

Just my $.02.

As far as a myspace page, yeah - I've seen it done before for LANs.  It's a good way to promote an event especially if you want to become a staple in the gaming community of any particular area, and as previously stated, social media is an awesome SEO tool (if just for that).  You may also want to start a twitter page, as well and have somebody spamming stuff on facebook.

Just finding the time to update though is kind of hard.  You have to update as a seperate entity from the website and it can become trivial- the best idea for this is to find some body based on the web aspects solely.  I'd volunteer for that, especially for running a myspace/twitter page for you guys. :)  Seriously.  PM me if you need any help with it.

with that remark, i say any team fights, are to be random! Reason he wants her on his team is cause she kicks his ass at Helo!

Her and I haven't 1v1'd yet.  And, sir, if she can kick my ass in Halo (she IS one level higher than I am...) that means she could wipe the floor with you. :p

And in a real tournament, random teams?  Please. :>

Unless it is large yearly event, all NeXus LAN tournaments will be random teams if more than 2 players per team.  We find this to be the most enjoyable for everyone at the LAN.

dude you told me the other day at the apartment you played her in Halo and she was kicking your ass! And i don't play halo no more, so id hope she could kick my ass...

Action, that is not necessarily the case.  While we enjoy random teams, they may not all necessarily be that way.  It just kind of depends.

Hey Clarity,   Renegade (KarzakX on Xbox Live) just tried to add you to his friends list and got an error back saying your friends list is full.  Man, just how popular are you?!!!

No, I don't remember telling you that... I've yet to actually play her.  I told you the same thing, she could *probably* kick my ass as she is a higher level than I am.
