I just wanted to say that I had an amazing time. The event went smoothly. I had a blast. I hadn't been to any NeXus LAN events before this one. I look forward to making it to the next one.

In my opinion it was fun as usual. Been to several NeXus LAN events and they have all been fun but this was the first time I actually dealt with toxicity in a LAN tournament. Played in the Overwatch tournament and having people be jerks at a LAN? That was a first for me. Most likely would still come to the next one but that was not fun.

Glocky, was it your team amongst themselves or other team?

We had an issue where someone was trash talking.. and one of the team members was right next to the guy and could hear him.  That was handled, definitely not something we put up with.  Especially when we have minors playing in the tourneys, it's also against one of the core values of the LAN. 

That crap doesn't belong at our events.

Was my first nexus lan in a few years and it was great to be back and it was a blast as always.
Although as mentioned before the shit talking this year was honestly... I don't even know if I have words because I've never dealt with it at a nexus lan when all the teams are random and for FUN but it seems for whatever reason that left some peoples minds this year.
For the rocket league tournament and the league of legends tournament there was someone rather saying something rude or just down right unnecessary to the point in the LoL tournament I went up to the opposite team and told them that we could hear them and it was really uncalled for, although they apologized I just don't understand why it had to be an issue to begin with
BUT regardless of that I had a great time, food was awesome and I loved getting to see everyone again.

       I had a ton of fun at the LAN and I participated in the League tourney, again the obvious problem was the trash-talking. But I also know that it was really hard for some people because due to the strict restrictions we had alot of low level players who had to participate who didn't necessarily even WANT to play just so the prizing could be given out (which I appreciate being as we placed 2nd). However I hope in the future we get more league of legends players to the point where we can cap it out to atleast just being level 30. Not because I don't think low levels shouldn't be allowed but because the game goes from team oriented to "which high elo player can carry the hardest" and this resulted in alot of the trashtalk because people were focusing down on camping and killing the lower level players. However I don't think any of the trashtalk was malicious and just more unnecessary than anything, I talked to the two "instigators" and both of them admitted it was just in the moment. Overall I had a blast meeting and talking to all the players and the environment was super friendly outside of some loud individuals, very well set-up LAN. :)

We as a team will discuss this trash talking issue, but I am sure we will be making some kinda rule / announcement that vulgar/toxic trash talking will result in remove from the tournament, and possibly the event.  This is a family friendly event and we will not tolerate that kinda behavior in the future.   

Other teams need to understand they are not at their house other team members can and are right next to them and can hear them saying crap.

Trash talking is kind of a new thing

I mean, here and there.  But I haven't heard of it on this level yet.

Definitely something we'll announce when we call tournaments.  We are in a somewhat unique environment due to the Alcohol, but it's not really an excuse.

Evildoer, it was the enemy team on the Overwatch tournament. It was mostly a specific person but I don't want to name drop anyone.
