I'll be honest sure there are people who shout alot, i do it too, but honestly i'm hearing alot of grumpy old men talk

:>
Get some proper noise cancelling headphones if you can hear people through them. Sure if people are playing consoles and intruding on your space that's fair enough get them dealt with, but shouting and such is expected and always happens it's just the nature of the majority of the crowd no matter what game or age. So honestly, reading the posts on complaining about noise and such is almost as bad as the noise..
If you are going to complain about noise and profanity then be consistent and complain about the utter shit and rudeness and penis on DC, i like to think people at respawn are pretty much chill and it's fun to muck around specially because you can bullshit and people bullshit with you.
Just deal with it and move on lol.
As for lights, sure 2am is a fine time but need to make sure the major comps are done before that gets done. IMO i would like to say i know for a fact that the tf2 comp wasn't done by 2am, it had hardly started so the lights should have been on longer. The light were off well before the comp finished. TF2 seems to be a comp which no matter how popular it gets it gets pushed on the back burner.
If you can't sleep with lights on buy one of those things that go over your eyes or just take them from an airline :>. There is so much ambient light in the place anyway.
I also noticed that this time there were a LOT more people gone by sunday morning so moving a major comp like TF2 to then would surely kill it.
The lan was fine sure it had it's issues but i know i enjoyed myself thoroughly. I think the key is (for grumpy people young and old

) to just let things go? Try to loosen up or wrap yourselves in sound proof bubble wrap and then attend, (once again bullshitting don't take things so seriously)
Deodorant! Maybe you should add deodorants to the list of things that are sold at respawn like mini travel ones :>
