Tf2 LAN meetup in Boston!

Hello everyone Pete here,

Last week I posted in the forums to find interest in a LAN tournament in Boston, we had so many awesome responses from people that we are (hopefully) going to be getting the wheels in motion for that. But until then we are going to be hosting some TF2 gaming nights!

The first one will be on December 30th, from 6 pm to 11 pm at our LAN center in Newton, MA

We have 10 gaming computers setup in soundproof booths, (I know most games are 6v6 but because this is a meetup I doubt everyone will be playing with each other) and room for 6 BYOC computers.

Here is a picture of one side

We hope you local TF2 players can make it down! If all goes well we hope to host these at least once a month. There will be a raffle at the end of the night for a prize (that we haven't decided).

Heres the link to the Facebook / Meetup event pages :

cage-why tuesday night

I was thinking its the Monday after Christmas, most people will be on vacation, relaxing at home with there new toys but not much to do! So we could host the first one then. Next one we will be more accommodating for jobs/school and try to get it on a weekend or Friday night. That is 100% open to discussion.

Yeah, it's a rather bad time of year, and given that it's not a full-on event, I can't justify being able to go (Add on that I have another commitment January 2-4).

its a local event. its not supposed to be a large event. If you are not from around the area its not worth it to come. This is how you build local communities though. Show up and support the local players from around the area and help each other get better.

I may stop by in some form--could bring my Surface for an easy 6th computer. Will try to see if any other gaming friends would be up for it.

This is the correct answer, its not worth driving far to come, especially for the first event, its going to be very relaxed.

How was the Quake event?

Will you have a server with MGE mod/map? That would be the best way to show off TF2 in a small group. Always nice to MGE with no ping.
