The Biggest LAN PARTY IN CEBU! JOIN NATA!!

[LeGeNdS]

---

But on the positive side the Overclocking was the best. The war3 challenge and starcraft challenge are nice too watch even though most people who joined the challenge expected prizes and thats all.

What is done is done nothing we can do about it.

sorry sa na offend mga peeps. na carried away ra tingali ko sa akong anger. -_^

my last reply.

[Der FüHRER]

sagdai nlng ang mga mu-complain, naa gyud silay right mu-complain kay nagbayad bya silag 350 den nagdala pa gyud sa ilang rigs :/ part ra na sa growing up..hehe

[muzikfreakah]

@lokster: You haven't responded to my question, where did you buy your ticket? I will investigate why you are THE ONLY ONE nga wala ka dawat ug shirt sa 350. Out of almost 500 gamers ikaw ra ang wala kadawat.

Oh, ikaw batu ang namaligya unta ug cod4 nga shirt?

@Legends: Were you part of any team during the event? If you dont want to join next time no one is forcing you too, you dont even need to spectate kay para dili magsakit imung dughan. Better to use your 50 pesos or 350 pesos wisely kanang dili gyud nimu kamahayan bro para dili mahugno imung kalibutan sa mga nahitabo.

Out of 1400+ people, so far two complains pa gyud ang nakuha.

And for those winners sa challenge games, again let me know, kay wala ko kabaw nga daghan nakaayo nakadaog and tungod sa ka busy nato ngad2 wala ma atiman, pasensya na, let me know who you are and I will give you your prizes. Just let me know the name of your competitor.

A lan party is really suppose to be bring your own rig. When you rent a PC sa internet Cafe you can't complain to them nga imung gi bayad dili up to spec sa ilang PC. That is basically why people bring their own rigs, well customized and upgraded rigs, to play the games in every aspect they want too- at the highest resolutions, fastest speeds and the best graphic settings possible. But knowing that the LAN PARTY would still be very new to a lot of people, we strived and did our best to provide PCs. Yes we had problems, walay video cards at first etc.. etc.. but atleast they got video cards to make up for it. And its not like one team nindut, the other team bati, both teams played on the same kind of rigs. In golf, its called Handicap, mas challenging hinuun, thats one way of looking at it. FAIR play gyud to.

To cut the long story short, BRING YOUR OWN RIG. If you dont have one, try to go to your fav cafe and negotiate with them nga imung i-rent ilang PC. Mau rana akong suggestion sa next LP if plano gyud mu mu apil.


Pranka pranka lang, 350 isnt that much for an event like that. Tanaw kag concert nga pila ka uras lang 500 naman gani. Pangita ug LAN PARTY sa kalibutan nga ingun ato kadaka nga less than 350 wala gyud kay makitan. Mostly $10 USD and above ang rate for very small LPs. Katu, provided tanan, Aside form playing- free internet, free wifi, naay food stations, pwede ka mag shopping and most especially the feell of playing beside your openents and laughing with them afterwards, mau na ang essential sa LP, mauna ang purpose sa LP, its not just to win the money or get the prize.

Sa monthly LP nato sa BFW which has been going on for years, 250 ang bayad, no prizes at all. Just pure fun lang lingaw lingaw, wala gyuy ni compain for mga 8 years na! imagine that!

That, we apologize. That was beyond our control. It was Ngkai's tech people who were supposed to be in charge of that stuff. Unfortunately, most of the techs there don't know sh*t.

Again, Let's take these as lessons for the next big LP/tournament.

@lokster
Still have those shirts? I was planning to buy during the LP but was too busy to look for you.

[muzikfreakah]

Yes we apologize for that. It was ngkhais first time sad to do all of this stuff. Dili man namo ma atol tanan nga kami mu trabaho. Sila man in charge and dili sad mi ganahan mang hilabot kay that hardware isnt ours man gud. Kana we deeply apologize, ang secret unta is during the event i bring up lang gyud pirmi ang problem para naay mu attend, nya kulitun lang gyud para gyud trabahuon pirmi.

As for the internet, dissapointed sad ko sa PLDT. Amo pana i bring up nila sad gyud. coz ilang gi commit wala nila ma provide Ang Egames grabeh sad ka affected. Luoy kaayo sila kay wala na nadayun ilang tourni pag gabii kay naputol gyud

In Fairness to Ngkhai, dili sad lalim sa ilaha when all of those hardware and all of those people setting up the Tables, Cabling, Servers, PCs, Registration, iyaha to tanan without compensation. Dako sad cya nagasto ato just to help make the event succesful. Again learning experience sad to nila kay first time to nila. Sa sunud, we assure you dili na gyud na mahitabo usab. Kuwang pato ug coordination ang technical team nila mauna naay uban individuals nag install install ug ilaha. Sige lang, next time ma ok nana

[rishee]

I didnt join the event.. but I entertained myself by reading this thing here.
Some people just don't understand the hazards of event planning..
Sa mga disappointed kay wala na tarong inyong event..
pasinsya sa mo kay mo kay I think this was a First.. and based on the feedback on my friends who went there.. lingaw kono although naa jud prob..

[LeGeNdS]

pag uli namo ni palit mi og yellow cab nalang para maka wala sa labad ulo.

Legends: I sympathize with how you feel. If I were in your place, I would probably be as pissed off as you... difference is, my anger and frustration would probably last only 5 minutes. Hey, you were part of the FIRST and BIGGEST LAN PARTY in the REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES. What's more, you SHOULD be proud that it was organized, marshalled, worked so hard for by fellow BISAYAS like, I assume, you are.

For the next LAN PARTY, I invite you to volunteer and join the organizing team since you obviously know so much about these things. Help us instead of whining about it.

To Everyone: NG KHAI, had to spend for this. Like how much? I don't even want to know. And they didn't really get anything out of it. Just the love of promoting our Cebu. Just did it for the goal of showing the rest of the country and the world that, yes, we can. So please, forgive a little. As for the techs, it was their first time. And like all first times, you don't really know what you're doing, and you break out in cold sweat, you're mind "hangs"... you get the drift.

To the organizers and marshalls and everyone who made history happen: You guys are number 1 in my book. Your selfless sacrifice shows just what you guys are made of. Congratulations!

Bree

P.S. to Legends... I hope the Yellow Cab Pizza stood up to your lofty standards... :mrgreen:

Out of 1400+ people, so far two complains pa gyud ang nakuha.

A lan party is really suppose to be bring your own rig. When you rent a PC sa internet Cafe you can't complain to them nga imung gi bayad dili up to spec sa ilang PC. That is basically why people bring their own rigs, well customized and upgraded rigs, to play the games in every aspect they want too- at the highest resolutions, fastest speeds and the best graphic settings possible. But knowing that the LAN PARTY would still be very new to a lot of people, we strived and did our best to provide PCs. Yes we had problems, walay video cards at first etc.. etc.. but atleast they got video cards to make up for it. And its not like one team nindut, the other team bati, both teams played on the same kind of rigs. In golf, its called Handicap, mas challenging hinuun, thats one way of looking at it. FAIR play gyud to.

> my take on this:
LAN party in theory is not just new, it's not possible to grow big YET if we take it in it's pure meaning of bringing our own rigs to the event. DREAMHACK Philippine version will remain as it is, a DREAM.

We have to face the fact that 95% of the local gaming community can't afford to have their own rigs. With this in mind, we have to be very thankful for NgKai for providing the computers no matter how bad/good they performed because without them, there would have been less than 500 people who could have gone to the event.

I can't totally agree with sir Ryan regarding the FAIR handicapped in relation to the units not having video cards. Many of the gamers that competed in DOTA were used to 800 x 600 resolutions. Others however, like myself, can't see much on resolutions like that. I know this might sound too little, but in competitive gaming, a little difference is too much. Good thing I was able to play on my laptop though. Hehe

> my take:
We also have to understand sir Ryan that most of the gamers can only play on cafes that are at most PHP 15.00/hour. In fact, I'm willing to be 85% of the gamers there are playing on cafes that are less than PHP 15.00/hour. Money is quite a big issue for these gamers. But still, they are gamers.

Sa monthly LP nato sa BFW which has been going on for years, 250 ang bayad, no prizes at all. Just pure fun lang lingaw lingaw, wala gyuy ni compain for mga 8 years na! imagine that!

> my take:
again, not all people have the same capacity as the people who join the smaller LAN parties.

Finally, we should just all be thankful that the LAN party happened with tournaments not just for COD4 (which i believe was the initial plan), but also for the mainstream games, DOTA and the not so mainstream game anymore, counterstrike. There was even a both for starcraft/warcraft challenge that was very nicely set-up specially for those who are interested to see how these competitive games are played and for those who want to challenge the gamers as well.

Yes, we all agree it could have been better. And surely, on the next one, IT'LL BE SO MUCH BETTER (not saying the first one was bad - I had a great time but some did not though)!

Can't wait for the next one! Hopefully we can make enough noise for the big industry players to notice the scene. I'm still hopeful despite having seen the major yearly tournament (WCG) diminishing over the last 7 years.
