LAN tourneys

After talking to some people from last year and a few that want to go this year, ive decided to see what kind of interest there is in getting some Tourneys setup for the lan room ahead of time, so that people can get there teams/schedules/equipment sorted out, and so we have a little bit of friendly competition going on in the lan room this year.

let me know what you would be interested in doing as far as games go, off the top of my head ive come up with:

COD4
COD5
UT 2004
UT III
CS 1.6
CS:S
HL2:DM
TF2
WC3
StarCraft

i am planning on having isos of any games that tournements are held for, but players will be responsible for serial keys and what not

Other games

Would it be possible to play some Left 4 Dead, I played it at one of my own personal LANs and it really lends itself to LAN play. (I'm bringing all my LAN friends, its gonna be awesome)
Also, what Warcraft III maps are you planning on playing (DotA?)

I'm down for L4D. And no one

I'm down for L4D. And no one is interested in League of Legends?

WC3 Maps

Warcraft Maps we should have

DotA (I hate the DotA community but the map is good)
MadBall (Dodgeball with a physics system)
IceWind (Battleships but good. 1.X cause 2.X sucks)
Uther Party (Preferably 2)

And some other things like Tower Defenses

Also, I second Left 4 Dead.

Thirded on L4D Also would be

Thirded on L4D

Also would be nice to see a Civ4 tourney.

L4D

Another for Left 4 Dead.

updates

i will be incorporating some sort of left 4 dead shenanigans, and of course you all are always welcome to host your own servers. i will just be hosting some of the more popular stuff, as well as some free for lan games that you may not of heard of/played.

as far as tourney sign ups go, im still working out the exact details, but there will be some sort of signup system in place in the lan room, and i will try my best to schedule the tourneys around the rest of the event.

Addendum

I might be running a few tourneys myself - but most of these games will be either oddities or older games people forgot about:

Alien vs. Predator 2
Oregon Trail
Worms Armageddon
FEAR Combat
Trackmania Nations
Pirates, Vikings, and Knights II

...plus whatever others suit my fancy.

L4D AVP2 UT3

Ill take on any :D

+1 for Trackmania

+1 for Trackmania

I am so in for a Worms tourney. Let's make it happen.

Alliance of Valiant Arms!!!

My friends and I have been really getting into this game called Alliance of Valiant Arms. It is a free game to download, it uses the UT3 Engine and is a very very fun and competitive game to play. It out scores combat arms in everyway. Heavy weapon customization, multiple game modes. I have played this game since Beta and it has only gotten better. My clan and I out of nowhere ended up in a clan tournament with Pandemic, a very well known sponsored gaming team. They were known for there skills in CSS and Warcraft. We played them but we lost 6-1. I wanted to share this game to everyone in hopes that there might be a tournament at MAGfest for the LAN room. This game is very worth it and would be very popular since its free. Here is the link to check it out. My Clans name is PartyFoul. Thanks for reading and interest, hopefully we can see a tournament at MAGfest!

How about League of Legends?

How about League of Legends? It's F2P so it'll be easy to set up!

QuakeLive would be pretty

QuakeLive would be pretty easy (and free) to set up on all the machines, and you could even possibly get a dedicated local server set up if you get in touch with id. I'm sure MagFest is big enough to warrant their attention.

HONK

TF2

We need more TF2 and fewer spys sappin our sentry's. Just saying.

TF2

TF2 because it's the best multiplayer ever!
