Yeah IF there are no issues right away from the patch I will upgrade the servers to 1.6 but going to watch the net for a day before I do it. The maps will be added to the rotation for sure probably more then once with different modes so they pop up more often as they are new.
I would say plan to be 1.6 for the tournaments though.
As for the grenade kill cam I would assume the killcam off setting turns both off but will check into it.
Last weekend was not a open house etc it was a test for staff so the building was not open to as it will be for events so no it will not be locked. You can park in that lot if room.
On the subject of consoles. We will have a limited # of open play consoles at the events. Usually 2-3 units 360, wii, xbox 1 etc. We will try to have what is needed for tournaments most of the time for instance when only 1 or 2 units needed. When we do larger console tournaments like 4 on 4 Halo 3 or larger etc those tournaments will require people to bring there own equipment as we just cant supply that many units. I personally prefer to bring my own unit when playing if allowed.
All paid attendee's get with there admission a spot for 1 PC or 1 Console. Power connection, and 1 network jack. So console players will be given space to setup there consoles and access to the LAN if needed/wanted.

Drop me an email at renegade@nexuslan.org. Had not thought about it and honestly no clue on music for the LAN's. Since they are monthly who knows but yeah lets talk.
I am using a Logitech G7 Wireless Laser. This is by far the best fitting, most comfortable mouse I have used. Its way more accutate then my old Microsoft optical mouse and my Logitech optical. I love the look of it. Has 2 rechargable batteries and a base station that the wireless reciever and spare battery plug into. If I dont want to take the station with me just take out a little reciever (looks like a small mem key) and the spare battery and go. I can get 24+ hours of gaming out of 1 battery not tried to run one out completly yet though so not sure how long it will last total hours.
