BurningLAN June Event PDF Print E-mail

Aaaalriiight! 

So I know many of you are wondering what's up with the lack of updates, so I thought I'd make some announcements. 

First of all, the BurningLAN June date has been announced!

 BurningLAN: June
June 27th/28th - 9:00pm-9:00am
Doors open at 8:30
Admission is $8.00 per person

Yeah, and now you're like "Uhhh... $8.00?" Yeah, eight bucks. For everyone. We're breaking it down a little better this time. Everyone will pay $8.00, and if they want to compete, they just pay $5.00 per tournament (but only for tournaments with prizes). Why? Because that way, nobody feels ripped off.

Now for the fun stuff: read on for the games!  Games for the June event will be as follows:

PC
  • Unreal Tournament - All of them, from 2000 to UT3. There will be some big Vehicle CTF matches for anyone who wants to play.
  • Quake - Again, all of them, including Enemy Territory: Quake Wars. We will be holding a 1v1 deathmatch for a big prize of some kind.
  • XTCS - If you don't know, it's Extreme Counter-Strike, which is basically a port of Source to the 1.6 engine. I'll post a link to necessary files closer to the LAN date. We will have a big tournament in XTCS for anyone who wishes to participate!
  • DotA - Yeah, that's right you warcraft-heads. We've got a DotA tournament for you.
  • Beat Tran in StarCraft - If you can beat Adam Tran in starcraft, we'll give you $20. And no, I'm not kidding.

Xbox 360
  • Call of Duty 4 - Everyone's favorite, apparently. We'll be holding a 4v4 tournament for prizes.
  • Halo 3 - Also a classic... kinda. Another 4v4 NOW DOUBLES (2v2), but for glory.
  • Rainbow Six Vegas 2 - Hot off the shelves. Not sure on tournament configuration, but we'll git'r'done.

Other
  • Guitar Hero - Oh yes, it will be epic. Most likely a prized tournament, but it depends on turnout.
  • Super Smash Brothers: Brawl - 2v2 or 1v1 matches, we're undecided on that.

So drop us a comment, tell me what you think. We've got lots of time to custom-tailor it!

Great Setup
written by Sins, April 23, 2008
Thats an awesome setup! and its CHEAP! but maybe you could make that there halo 3 tournament doubles instead of 4v4. I think that 2v2 would be uber awesome, and the tournament would be bigger (teamwise) so that would be pretty cool. and that guitar hero tournament will own, but im not good enough for expert yet, so i might not be doing that haha. oh and i got free admittance to this lan (im the kid that won everything but the power supply haha) but you didnt get my name or anything. thats all i got to complain about haha. awesome setup and i cant wait to go.
Peece all,
Sins

I agree. I couldnt go to the last Lan, but i can go now. I know Sins, and ive played him before. And he and his partner are great together, nohomo. But really, having doubles would be most epic. If it doesnt work out Sins, call me, you know who i am, i'll be glad to play with you. no homo. But yeah, make us happy, higher powers of BurningLAN. You gots my vote Sins.XdX

P.S. your whole put in the security code thing sucks. It wont take whatever i put in haha. see ya

Dexarck? Your partner's gangSTAR right? HA. You didnt play me before. I blew your ass out of the water. HA. That was great, you've played me before. Ha. its not so funny anymore. But yeah man, i know you pretty well, and your partner too. Im not really as leet as i was then, but im sure i could kick ass. you should join the site, and try to get te SparkLAN back and happening.than i could play you more often. I lost my high speed, right before i got my 360 haha, so i cant play live, but call me sometime and ill see if you can hang out one weekend. We got like 2 months left, so we can scrimmage a bit before the real thing. haha. but yea maybe the LAN people will pity us enough at our forum fighting antics to let us play a doubles tournament haha. Ill own you sometime dude, promise.
Peece all,
Sins
