Seattle forumer gatherings - Version 20.15
Posts
I'd prefer a PC but can supply my own if somebody else needs it.
PC's are all claimed at this point.
If it helps, I have a monitor you can use so you dont have to bring that.
No L? I'm sure Ribbons would love some L time.
Newborn immune system + 20 people during flu season = bad idea
Also, I bet Jenn will be grateful to have mateo and Z out of the house for an afternoon and return with food. :P
There goes Cakiea, bein' all rational and stuff.
My idea as it stands:
Every two hours everybody rolls a D20 to select 4 people. The highest roll must empty their inventory and get teleported (Or walk to, if nearby) to THUNDERDOME.
The three lowest rolls must empty their inventory AND destroy their sleeping bag(s) and get teleported to THUNDERDOME
You will have a short time to empty your inventory, dont want this shit to take forever.
You are only allowed burlap clothes and a rock as your weapon.
Of those 4 people they have the chance to spin the shots-go-round, under each of the 16 (?) shots on the wheel there will be a post it note that mentions an item. If you spin the shots-go-round you will be allowed to only take that item into THUNDERDOME with you.
(Could be some raw materials, could be a weapon)
The victor gets... something in addition to the below.
If you win THUNDERDOME then you are allowed to build a small house inside of barter town and keep a sleeping bag in it as a spawn point (even if you roll low for THUDNERDOME next time).
Other generic rules would be:
No fighting in Barter Town
No stealing in Barter Town
No being a huge dick in game (Like sniping the exit to someones house constantly so they cant leave).
No alliances larger than 2 people. No allying with other alliances. (To prevent fuckery from last time)
Feel free to raid internet randos that join the server.
So thats the base I am working off of. I have other ideas like:
Setting up an in-game economy using tokens IRL to buy resources or to purchase events.
Example event:
Teleport Oz into a pit filled with bears.
Or you could buy information.. like buy the location of a player.
Winners of THUNDERDOME could get monetary bonuses as well as being allowed entry to Barter Town.
The arena battles will be a way to keep score so we have some kind of endgame (other than just fucking up the internet randos & Snickers), what other challenges could we do?
Ideas welcome.
Anytime after 2 I suppose.
Since I am assuming most people have the day off.
12/31 4pm until NEXT YEAR
House has limited space so likely this will be capped at 50-ish peoples.
Come ring in the new year with friends, booze, and boardgames! We will also bust out some beerio kart again as well.
(I will have downstairs cleared out with a table setup for those who are interested in playing things)
Where:
(PM ME FOR ADDY IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE I LIVE BY NOW)
(House rules for those who aren't familiar; 21+, No coming if you are sick, no drinking until you are sick, No being stupid (usually not a problem), Pay your keg beer tab, if you want access to the massive booze stash then you donate a bottle to it, be quiet outside after 10pm, leave stuff that's not yours alone.)
Bring a food/drink/mixer item for sharing. Bring booze if you wish to partake of the stash. Champagne for new years if you want (ill have a couple bottles for sharing, not much though).
Beer out of the keg is 2 for $5 ($2.50ea). Make sure to settle up your tab at the end of the party (or shortly afterward).
On tap: Irish Death
This is at about 50% as of this posting. North coast brewing old rasputin will be the replacement.
Show up no earlier than 4pm.
Any questions feel free to ask away, either on here or via PM.

Jan 2nd - 4th (hell even that Thursday if people want most of us have New Years day off + that friday)
Cost:
$20 for utilities & food on Saturday
Either Tequila tacos or a ham dinner, haven't decided yet.
I have 12 computers that can play BF4. I also have 5 spare BF4 accounts available for use if you dont happen to own the game. We will also play some TF2, possibly Natural Selection 2, and might even bust out some UT2k4 for old times sake. Slower times we will likely do some RTS stuff.
Let me know if you are using a computer and if you need BF4. If you state nothing I will assume you are using one of my computers here and you have your own BF4
If you are crashing here, due to wear and tear over the years a bunch of my sumos now RIP at the dump. Please bring a sleeping mat or something to sleep on since my sumo supply is now half of what it was.
Normal haethaus party rules apply.
(Bring a bottle (or two if you consume a lot) if you are drinking, no making yourself sick, no screwing with things that arent yours, etc)
ALSO THIS IS OZ'S LAST LAN! HE MOVES BACK TO ALASKA SHORTLY AFTER THIS LAN!

Need computer, have BF4.
Hey, it's me, Teldra! Did someone say "greatsword"? [Eternity]
If you can bring your own this time, please do so (Since they are almost gone). If somehow I end up with an extra, ill let you know.
Also, If you want to borrow a monitor so you dont have to haul that, I have plenty
Did you end up buying the Premium edition one that was on the origin black friday deal?
For real real?
Do you need a PC/BF4 account?
Will need a PC, have BF4 of course.
Check 'em: My Pins!
Yes we do.
All my spare accounts have premium if you dont have it by the LAN.
