Major advantage with CS:Go, COD4, and UT is that we won't need a strong internet connection.

I'm not sure if you can create local LAN games in Black Ops 2.

Yes you can. Custom games in Black OPs II will be on the LAN if everyone in the game (party) is on the same LAN. All custom games in Black OPs II is P2P.  All public games are dedicated servers (their servers).  So although not as simple and quick to setup/start as COD4 for example, you can still do Black OPS II on a LAN.

You still need inet to get the black ops 2 game to launch but its p2p once launched.  I am not sure if the data has to go out an back in or if it will just stay inside once launched though but yes with custom game Black Ops 2 should work just fine as long as steam is authenticating etc.     Setup for black ops 2 is harder as each match someone will need to be the admin, set it up, make map changes etc then make sure all select right side an the launch the game etc wherre as COD 4 its all server side and admin run.

Was there any reason why shootmania wasn't put into the vote?

Well this was round 2 of voting, and no one ever mentioned that game nor have I seen anyone play it etc.   I will be happy to add it to the main vote for the oct/nov Nexus 12.

I looked into Shootmania which I had never seen etc and I assume your refering to shootmania: Storm which is due to release in April.   So when we started voting we only went with known games that were in full release.   I will put it on the round 1 voting for NeXus 12 though and if enough vote for it then we might see it then as a tournament.
