Isn't that a contradiction? Someone being with the computer would kinda make it attended

so your stealing it because your not.
wtf
------------------
What if there were no hypothetical questions?
my computer sux0rz too, but im getting better in CS. although i dont think ill be half as good in sniping as i am in Unreal Tournament. pulling off headshots from the hip is a GIFT, damnit.
but it doesnt say what games theyre playing!
it only mentions TFC and CS
what? no Homeworld? or AoE?

and you can play any game you want, with 1250 gamers, youre bound to find someone with everything...or somethin...
i think its because that's the name of the company or something
So anyway...theyre gonna fuck it all up unless its only like 250 people.
We do need a Det.net clan. Something like [DND] Det Net Destroyers or something.

Decaffinated coffee is like unleaded fuel, it tastes like shit.

Recon 2000's HUGE LAN gaming event will occur all in one facility, connected to a network with virtually no latency! How will we achieve this? We will use multiple gigabit switches to power the core of of the gaming event. Each gigabit switch will branch off to multiple 10/100mbit switches where you, the gamer, will be directly connected with your own computer. Remember, this event is a "Bring Your Own PC" event, so be sure and check our computer specs page to see what you need to do to prepare for connection.
The switches will be connected to the gigabit core at 100mbit. A maximum of 24 computers will be placed on each 10/100mbit switch to provide maximum throughput, minimal latency and reduce the threat of any bottlenecks. The dedicated servers themselves will be directly connected to the gigabit switches. So, if all of this is not totally geek, er..I mean Greek to you, then you'll easily see what we mean when we say, "virtually no latency!"The participants on the network will be issued an IP address automatically through our dedicated DHCP server. We strongly encourage all participants to be sure your computer is network ready when you arrive. We will not be able to provide you with hardware, although there will be hardware vendors at the event where you can purchase last minute hardware items. Of course, Recon 2000 technical staff will be available to help configure your computer for actual tournament play, if it isn't already. Have it configured ahead of time, and you'll get to the fragfest that much sooner.

Ok yea that was when we were gonna provide some badass gigabit switches.. then they bitched about the money to rent them so they decided on using some fucking hubs. Now we got intel to sponser it so EVERYTHING there network related is going to be Intel. And were gonna raffle off a P IV. Your gonna see banners that either say XELIX or XRAM EVERY FUCKING WHERE cause thats whose running the show. And thats where I fit in. I get to "help" with the fun. he he he
