General Tournament rules for NeXus LAN Events -
Most of these go with out saying but wanted to make sure they were in writing.
1 - No cheating of any kind period. If someone is caught cheating they will be DQed from the tournament, removed from the event, and asked not to come back again.
2 - Treat everyone with respect as you would want to be treated.
3 - All players must use their own account when competing in a tournament. You are not allowed to use another players account that is lvled up higher then yours etc. (exceptions made by tournament admins only!)
4 - Matches will not be restarted due to a PC crash, etc. The person that crashed just needs to reboot asap an get back into the game asap.
5 - If a player drops out of a team event mid tournament that team will have to go on minus a player. Teams can not sub in a different player, nor can someone sit down at the players PC that dropped out and continue playing for that player. Your team is set from the moment the tournament starts.
6 - Keep your language during the event and in tournaments as clean as possible. The venue is a family facility and F-bombs etc are frowned upon.

PUBG SPECIAL RULES: No teaming. No assisting. No ringers. No talking to a player in game outside of in-game communications during the solo event. In game comms is fine as that's part of the solo experience. Discord may be used for the team event. We will review the replays if we have to.

I want to apologize for not having the website updated, tournament info posted etc. I got married recently, honeymoon, and this week landed in the hospital. I am getting all this updated tonight/tomorrow on tournaments etc.
The staff had planned to run a total of 2 more events NeXus LAN 24 & 25 and then end the events, however we are seeing that the trend of lessor attendance, getting less and less sponsors due to the cut backs in sponsorship for events of our size is continuing at a higher rate then expected. With this in mind we have decided that it would be better to make NeXus LAN 24 our final event.
We plan to make this event just as fun filled etc as ever and hopefully more so with some added events going on etc.
So with that news we currently have 62 seats available for NeXus LAN 24 at this time.
If you were thinking about attending now is the time as this we be our last NeXus LAN event ever....

Added Trackmania and Super Smash to the list, but Apex Legends doesnt have a private match ability yet. We plan to keep an eye out for that to be added before the event as I think this would be a great game to add to the tournament line up.

COD 4 PUBG League of Legends Heroes of the Storm Rocket League CS GO Overwatch UT 2k4 Quake Live Rainbow Six Siege Hearthstone Trackmania Super Smash Brothers Ultimate

We will update this thread as we get closer to the event with schedules etc
NeXus LAN’rs - today we want to inform you that NeXus LAN 24 will be the last event for Renegade and Sideout , and for NeXus LAN itself. It is not an easy decision to make as nothing can replace the feeling and excitement of watching and participating in a successful event , but we feel that it is time to retire and pursue other interests.
Since inception born from the death of Dayton LANFest , the journey from a small 50 person LAN to the graduation as one of the premier LAN’s in Ohio , NeXus LAN has been dedicated to one mission and goal - providing the casual gamer an experience that is second to none , a great casual gaming event , and a family friendly environment.
Over the course of the last several years there has been a shift in the LAN party world. The expanse of home broadband , the cost of manufacturing tech / gaming products , and the general march of time has impacted both attendance and sponsorship. The changes by game design and creators shifting to public lobbies and catering to streaming has limited the choices in tournament play. All of these factors have contributed to a steady decline in sponsorship , attendance , and participation at the last several events.
Everyone wants to go out on top and both Renegade and myself feel that it is time to retire from NeXus LAN with the many great memories that we have. We also feel that the NeXus LAN name , brand and reputation deserves to be retired as well.
We want everyone one to know how much your support over the past years have meant in terms of the people attending and the sponsors for helping out.
We want to thank our staff who work tirelessly at each event and sacrifice their time twice a year.
We hope a new event and organizers will be found or step forward to keep the NeXus LAN tradition of casual gaming alive in the area but those details are not solidified as of yet. Either way the NeXus LAN name , brand and reputation will be retired after NeXus LAN 24.
Again , thanks to you and all past attendees , who made NeXus LAN what it is today. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
