I hope everyone had a great time.   I'll  post the pics later, but I just wanted to see what you all thought of the LAN.

had a great time as always. I really appreciate the staff at Nexuslan as they are always extremely nice, and ready to help in any way.

The prizes rocked as well!!!  Thanks to all the sponsors, especially Intel for providing the awesome motherboard and CPU! Hope that lucky winner comes back next lan with a kick arse computer.  :o


The only complaint I have was a weird power issue in the one corner of the room. Thankfully the staff was there to fix the problem immediately each time it reared it's ugly head!

Hopefully they will have that area prepared for the next party (if they even know what exactly the problem was?).

I was extremely impressed with the quality of this event.

Tournaments were fun, the swag (and Fax's ever-present offers of free 'singleplayer demos') flowed freely, the pro L4D team I got set up with got the gold medal achievement, and there was a good bit of TF2 Arena fun to be had.

More than anything, though, I have to wax poetic about the Rock Band setup.

Honest to God, that was the most defining, epic moment of the entire LAN -  the light kit, speakers, and the whole nine yards - I expected a projector and some goofy $20 speakers, not a setup that real professionals would have brought around.

The Nexus crew puts on a hell of a show and I'll be back in October to see the encore.

The Rock Band was epic... Brent (RedDog) was responsible for the cool set-up, and thanks to Plague for the use of his monitor for the band members to view.  All the bands rocked!  I am almost certain we are doing Rock Band again in Oct, and RedDog says he's got some new things planned.  ;D

I had fun in the L4D unofficial tournament too... thanks for running it InfamousD.  I will be more dangerous next time now that I know the controls a little better. LOL.

Ok, next time I will have to prepare better for the Rock band tourney.  One of our guitar players got a little zelous and failed us out of our song <ahem>, but we wanted to come back and make sure we finished the song and played it through.  Kudos to the winning band "IdRatherDieThanNotKillZombies" I think was the name of the band.  They did very well.

:) yeah we forgot to sync the screen and/or guitar again after power loss.  You had to hit before to adjust but once RedDog and I figured that out we were ok.

SORRY!  I usually have the pictures up in a more timely manner.  But, we had a couple of different people taking pictures and it is taking longer than normal to compile all of them.  I hope to have them up later today.
