Is there anything about this event you found particually good or bad?

Horrible.

Starting from Beginning to Ending.

Entry:
The opening time of the LAN was terrible. I can assume that the delayed (10-20min) opening was important, but it's inexcusable considering you're running a business of sorts, you should have some sort of management in place to make sure your customers are happy - I came late, and it was still sad to see.

Once again, The prepaid line was extending out the building, while noticing the confirmed players had NO LINE. Fundamentally, We're the people that are your safeguard in money terms anyway. The sad thing is that this happened last LAN. Each line consisted of 2 validating team members, the same same as last LAN. Wouldn't you of learnt from the mistake last LAN - Which I made a clear note of last time I put my two cents in. I prepay for the extra benefits that entitles a greater assist over non prepaying members. I expect these benefits (I assume a faster validation is one of them.)

Turn-Up
The turn up was pathetic. That isn't your the Admin Teams fault however. It's like this was the Christmas holiday's event. It's just sad. I'm actually glad the Christmas Holidays Respawn was cancelled (Postponed Idk) Because it would of been a worse turn up of people.

Music
The music has been a growing improvement. It offered a variety - which is good. I'd like to say some were just terrible - But that's personal opinion, So I won't.

The Vibe
The vibe of a feel-good respawn wasn't there, well I personally didn't feel it. Most likely due to lack of people. At some points I was bored despite the fact I was at a computer with multiple games, chatting in an IRC etc. Possibly just me, but man I was just naturally disappointed.

BBQ
A bit late, 2 hours, didn't really bother me, wasn't hungry, but just goes back to managing effectively.

Hoodies
I enjoyed them, they actually gave incentive to come. They were something different, and something relatively new. Even though you offer T-Shirts every LAN - Which is still good, but a hoodie offers additional warmth - So good job.

Poker
Poker was reasonable. The only thing besides the prize money (As that relies on players - understandable) is the first round blinds. Although it's only minor, it effected everything. Ultimately the $10 chip was useless. You couldn't play it unless you exchanged for a $25, even then, the next round blinds couldn't do anything with them - unless you'd manage to get 5. To summarize it, Should of just included the 5-10 dollar blinds from last LAN.

Thats as much as I can remember, might extend on it in time.

Queenie and myself do the pre-paid check-ins, the line is caused by ones that just stand there or the slackers that are too lazy to even bother writing down the bar code or printing it which results in us having them log into respawn site (it's only the way we can verify they are who they say they are). Sure a 3rd hand might help speed up the process slightly, but again if people fail to write/print bar code then existing problem will just continue.

EDIT: redacted (bad suggestion on my be half) If you do have any suggestions post here, otherwise feel free to pm me.
