Hey everyone;

Well we had an amazing weekend; but did you?! we want to know!

We want POSITIVE -and- NEGATIVE feedback, we like to hear what we did well, but we also like to hear what we need to do better.


all i need to ask is that to be constructive;

instead of "Respawn sucked." put "I didn't enjoy Respawn because of....."


and ditto for Positive biggrin.gif Please :3


thanks!

Pros -
New pizzas were win
From what I saw, more people were gaming then at previous Respawns
Lots of Nerf
Less Steam problems around me than at previous LANs
Respawn-Tank-Cafe-Thing seemed very organised
Pings stayed open, woot

Cons (which are probably out of your control)-
Power outages causing delay in competitions
Steam Friday updates... They are far too annoying
Some players in the TF2 comp didn't know the rules (as seen on the forums), and were rolling out mini-sentries (not that they were much of an issue).
I know the guy who was sitting accross from me had an issue connecting to the mumble server and to the tf2 server (competition servers) without getting a ping of >400, I did check his task manager, all he had open besides Steam.exe and hl2.exe were the standard vista stuff noone cares about

Only annoying thing was the power outage, delayed the Flatout 2 comp which I didn't wanna miss out on, luckily I didn't, and I didn't get to purchase a hot dog this time sad.gif

Other than that was great as usual.

Pros;
- Cheap food.
- More gaming.
- No Steam issues (for myself or anybody I knew).
- I personally had a more enjoyable time overall, as opposed to v17... which was largely related to not having a dickhead behind me yelling shit out to people across the hall/in general every 3 seconds, and yelling to his friends only 1-2 seats away. MUCH better this time around.

Cons;
Respawn participant issues;
- Intense body odour from at least 60% of the participants.
- Morons constantly yelling stupid shit out across the hall.
- Tools with NERF guns.
- General dickheads with ego problems.
- Some failure abusing me on DC, 'cause I didn't want any of his shared files...

General Respawn issues;
- Power outages (they got me last time, but not this time, so I know how much it sucks for all involved).
- Network cables taking foreverrrrrrrr to rock up... but I am glad they got there eventually... as my cable wasn't quite long enough due to the new table layouts.


I think that's all, really.

coruphius aka fartbag:

had a ball! yelling was entertaining but it did get annoying but you'd expect that at LAN's (cant be serious all the time)

comps were great even tho i kept on getting pwnd!

needed more AFK comps to get people up and about to stratch their legs etc

needed random stuff put on the big screen lol!

NERF GUNS FTW!!!

was my first time going to respawn was pretty sick... but i reckon respawn should maybe have more afk and games comps cause it did get a bit boring after the comps were finished but apart from that everything was pretty sweet and the food was pretty cool... as for the power oo well shit happens i didnt mind having a break anyway smile.gif

pros;

- fun fun fun, as per usual
- i got to sticky tape and duct tape my ethernet cable to my case...
- free chupachups**
- free redbull**

** saw post above tongue.gif

- watching like 30 people get up and go looking for the loser turning off the power was lol.

- SMALL nerf guns, SMALL AMMO alright

cons;

- power out for me once
- our switch kept fucking up. zardoz said it was "randomly decided to restart" or something. it did it a fair few times just randomly through the night.

- BIG nerf guns, BIG AMMO can go get fucked.
- BIG nerf guns, BIG AMMO can go get fucked.
- BIG nerf guns, BIG AMMO can go get fucked. (srsly)

- 353/425 ppl ---> saddens me, cause you compare how many ppl actually rego'd for it and how many didnt show. i reckon you should introduce some sort of blacklisting system, if you are confirmed and don't show up, mark next to your account.... and then next lan, when you bump the player list, ppl with 0 marks nxt to their name are sorted up to the top, then ppl with 1 mark nxt to their name, etc etc... so its sort of like a penalty for not showing up, while also somewhat helping to prevent those 70 ppl who didnt show from doing it again.

(excuse the lack of formatting on that last dot point, i'm still buggered biggrin.gif)

hope that helps

Pro:

- TF2 comp. Our team was randoms 2 of us only starting to play this weekend. We lost, but had heaps of fun!

- Cafe up front. Good food, good prices!

-Diablo2, not many of us played but it was a great blast from the past.

-Helpful techies up the front for noobs like me.

Cons:

-The loud COD players screaming crap at others across the room. Not necessary.

-The person who smelled like they pooped their pants sitting near me. Winning a match of COD is not as important as personal dignity!

-The scary power cable sparking up and threatening to kill us all. (was fixed thankfuly)

-Lack of AFK stuff...

First time coming and it was a blast! Thanks heaps.

Hey guys,

I've been reading this since I got in the door about 20mins ago from Respawn LAN. Thank you for the candid feedback. It's only because of you honest "Spawners" (I couldn't think of a witty comment), that we can go "hey that worked, or wow, that really sucked....

Do you have friends who sat with you? Or near you? nudge them to write a post on our forums! We want to stay the best LAN party out there! And it's only with your help and comments that we can! Be as candid as you like, for example....

Candid Comment: That squid guy gives great High5's
Non Candid: oh yeah, it didnt seem to work.... <-- What didnt work? Thats what we mean

HELP US HELP YOU!

Jeffy smile.gif

Edit: ShotgunPreacher I think... :3 - We love that you had a blast, the effort we put in, is to see you guys go... "WOW THEY CAN LANPARTY"... (ps: Tell your friends)... Yes that cable was bad, but we got it fixed biggrin.gif

PROS:
It's a lan, lans are cool

CONS:
I tried to "Volunteer", but found there was little order AND Tabk felt the need to yell at us like we we're earning $6 an hour at Mcdonalds. Yes We realise you asked for help once, but did we hear it the first time? NO. Was there reason to yell the second time because you assumed everyone was ignoring you? NO. so STFU

LTU was blocking something funky coz even though i allowed a few ppl full access to the network is still wouldnt connect to b.net!

hopefully next lan i can sort something out.

I spent most of the LAN up stairs in bed due to having food poisoning friday night and thus feeling sick saturday and being extremely tired. What I can comment on though is :

Pro's

- Pizza! 10 billion times better than the usual. Greta work on the switch.
- Network was crazy quick,

Con's

- To much yelling as usual, why people feel the need to yell abuse across the hall ill never know.

Really enjoyed this respawn, you guys really had stuff down but whenever i went to ask a question on dc++ or talk to someone everyone seemed to jizz them self with my presence o.0. Dead man i want to talk to you about the timetable etc when you've got some free time, add me on steam or something :S = phoenix4675
