Peace to:

The Spades' Slick gamers
Saam for being completely insane and hilarious
CookieJake for not giving me shit the whole time and being an awesome gamer
Spades for being Spades (basically)
Tojo for playing a video game with me (why me, iunno)
Ex for being a complete beast, carrying my dead weight, and being an awesome guy to hang out with

Everybody in production
Dashner for being the gamer we all need
Fragile for putting on the biggest NA LAN and being an absolute champ the whole time, trying to work out the rave situation
Kevin for staying up and doing interviews way too late at night
Buick for being completely impossible to keep up with
Getawhale for being actually insane and awesome because of that
Shdwpuppet/Shdwpuppy for driving out to be there even with that injury and still putting out servers and organizing.

Everybody else
Owl for stopping by for a bit to say hi before he went on his insane rescue mission
Fox Peace for hanging out in the hotel lobby even though he was exhausted
Auzzie for being an awesome bud and for shouting my name right as his elevator door closed to scare the shit out of me
Remedy for letting me in his room to hang out
Face and Ctrl+f Muffin for letting me tag along when nothing was happening on Thursday
Steven for being an actually pleasant guy and his incessant use of a selfie stick to bother Muffin
Showstopper and Marmaduke for providing some drinks late Thursday
Indust for dropping by to hang out at the venue and for filling out my pretty empty room
All those HL players who stayed in their own little world, especially Hidi, Snook, Jackster, and Willmatic
Kresnik for shooting the shit for awhile, the ability to talk about anything, and being cool about the delays on Saturday
SteveC for being an awesome gamer and hanging out on Sunday morning
Kay for going out of the way to find me and talk with me
Big Nik saving production by giving us rides for supply runs
Big Ordoo for saving production for far less than it would have cost me
Jerma and Star for being really pleasant and for letting me record Jerma's attempt to play arcade golf
Leaky and Wrech for being cool guys to hang out with and being awesome to speak with
Bear for hanging out and for sending me on a goose chase to find him
Blues for great times on Saturday and being able to shittalk me no matter what time it is
Juicy for his ability to pass out anywhere, including on top of Ex
Truktruk for hanging out and having an awesome personality
Ma3la for tolerating me somehow while I was invading the room
Duwatna for saying hi to me before I realized he was there and for hanging out Friday evening
Sezco for hanging out and always being free to talk when he was around
Alfa for being amazing as always and somehow remembering at least some of last year
Jaguar for talking to Saam when Saam was completely gone, that was hilarious
Pie Hero for letting me borrow him and his phone for sign holding
Capnfapn for baiting everybody at BWW by falling asleep and for being another gorgeous gamer
CJ for confirming CJLAN2016 and being a cool guy
Hooli for being an awesome guy and for helping out with pugs
Couch for yelling at me when I missed my shots
Clorg for being a cool guy, even for a sadboy
Boulder for putting up with my shit and being awesome
Cole for giving me shit about my laptop and being a short lived survivor of the annual last meal, next time no anime in my room please
The guy who stood behind me and watched me play for so long (I'm sorry for subjecting you to that, and I can't remember your name :( )
Everyone who played in the tournament to make it the big event it was

If I didn't list you, hang out next year or quit dodging LAN. C u @

Thank you Mr. Chen, I wanted to be prepared for whatever happened, although if kainoa ended up going I'm sure I would've been safe and we would've chilled out together.

Also, if you didn't go to Wawa at all, I feel so fucking bad for you. Gottahava Wawa is the greatest gas station on the planet

I'm on the road back to Nebraska but I had a lot of fun. I didn't say hi to a lot of people but it was a lot to take in, nerves got the better of me I guess. Not to worry though, assuming life stays good to me, I plan on coming back next year.

See you in 2016 gamers

Wonderful turnout, beautiful people. There's something about the size of this community that still makes these sort of lans such an intimate, personal experience while leaving the community with a solid core as this game continues to take off over the next year.

I'd like to thank you all for giving me to opportunity to talk about video games with my good friend Mike, I cannot even begin to list how many times he made me utterly crack up or non-stop smile while live; I hope it wasn't too detracting and yet I also hope you guys enjoyed the banter. We don't get to cast together much if at all anymore so it truly meant a lot. Production wise I really don't know how else to put this... but thank you to everyone for putting their heart and soul into these events. I don't know what needs to happen to ever pay back these guys, but I just wish it was as simple as dropping loads of money into dashners (or the lot of you's) lap for all of their selfless time spent. (Any takers?)

Whether it's mala's cookies and smile or Geck's fresh style. Showstopper's crisp haircut and memes or b4nny sharing his gin after another lan victory. Various gamer self-roasts or MLX's Canadian accents. (meeting luc after soo many years!) There are so many funny little intricacies about this community that truly make LAN environments worth it. I implore each and every one of you to come to future events. Whether you are there to game, or just to socialize with people who's voices you know and recognize for ages online but have never got the chance to meet.. DO IT. cu@GXL next year EU. :D

Geel, mutual feeling. <3 Thank you oodles for believing in and supporting this little community that could.

Finally, Nick Leon ladies and gentlemen *5 minutes of clapping* keep on carrying these lans, putting the team on your back.

xoxo

It was nice seeing my friends again, even better seeing the new faces I've befriended over the years. Meeting names I've only read was fun, as well as drunk convos and drunk Miggy.

Recover from that wawa's farns.

Also getting rolled up on by the cops at 2am in the Bob Evans parking lot was great.
