Following up in Hallow's tradition I figured I'd make this thread as everything wraps up while I edit photos at 5 AM and send Dashner over VODs to upload later. Thanks again to the lads for putting up with me getting up all in their face/over their shoulders again taking photos you don't want to see get posted on the internet, but also for coming to help us put on a great show even if I never want to see a 40-minute golden cap ever again. I have specific memories of skeej teaching me why food thermometers are important for cooking meat, Vani letting me use his laptop, tek flicking my nose & understanding me not knowing French despite being Canadian, kaja hugging me twice, and spudd dabbing on stream. Particular shoutout to Beavern who helped bring and return that camera that caught player reactions on his way from Stockholm to Jönköping.
Thank you to the other lads who came by to watch and meet peeps, it was awesome to meet you whether for the 1st or 2nd time, including but not limited to mya (thank you for helping me find my monopod & being a sweetheart), maks (thank you for telling me your stories about how you joined TF2 & also being a sweetheart), and Ed - particular shoutout to Ed for helping me set up the GoPros that got knocked over with the zipties as well as housing us morons even though we broke shit. Glad you liked the maple cremes and the caricature I drew live before I had to fly out; hope the whiskey's from Ads is also good. Sorry about the air mattress again on that potato's behalf.
Thanks to the production crew for being on fucking point as always with the production, particularly my Canadian partner-in-crime Dashner for paying for all the camera shit we bought & returned to net-on-net because I'm a dumbass who didn't realize t5 =/= t5i, Kaiser and Turbo for helping back Dashner up before he had an aneurysm, David for cooking me food and bringing out your all for a non-Cheat Feed stream, hope you and Kaiser had fun! Shoutout as well to all the caster boys for being on-point with their Twitter/dress/casting game, including getting me/each other food & water and circlejerking each other's Twitter posts. (Especially Turbo who ends up being me & Dashner's moral life coach, and newcomer Bren who got really smart about not blowing out his vocals before Sideshow did.)
Thank you Sideshow for basically doing the equivalent once again of taking the goddamn dice, rolling it, watching it ricochet off the walls, go down a drainpipe, fly out and hit somebody's car, watch that car's safety breaks turn off, watch that car hit an old person, have the dice fall down the drain, have it eaten by a duck, killing the duck and splitting it open, watch the dice fall out of its intestinal tract on anything but snake-eyes, and then deciding for whatever fucking reason: "yeah, let's have another Dreamhack event". Stay gold, Dribbleboy. Stay gold.
Thanks to the sponsor folk, particularly Geel of Marketplace.tf who helped me and DHS happen this year, as well as Wolf of essentials.tf for helping fund the sweet new camera Dashner got to nearly blow his shoulder holding it for player/crowd reactions. Thanks to Plantronics for the headsets that drowned out all the other bullshit trying to drown us out in the expo area, and thanks to Esport United for all the help with setup, equipment and whatever they could help us with. Personal thanks as well for the chocolate mint sweets in exchange for maple cremes from last year.
Shoutout to that guy who was part of that cycling marathon happening at the same time as Dreamhack who stopped by at our bus stop, gave us a talk about what the fuck the cyclists were doing, then went on his merry way.
Shoutout to the cab dude Ed recommended for putting up with us when we were inebriated.
Shoutout to Dreamhack in an attempt to get us a tourney spot next year instead of an expo spot SO WE CAN STAY PAST NINE THANK YOU ANYWAY SORRY WE SUCK
As always, thanks to everybody who stuck around and supported the production lads + player lads throughout this all, whether it was live at the venue or from behind a monitor. Whether we could hear your shouts from the chairs scattered across the front of the booth or the stupid ass "PERMZILLA DAB ON STREAM" memes in the Twitch chat, we're glad we could put on a show even if you thought we were trolling at the end. It was cool to see r/tf2 light up in nothing but stream highlights, and all the newcomers understanding that while we couldn't have a GF, that it wasn't a fault of competitive TF2's - if anything, that you want to see more competitive TF2 like that.
tl;dr: Thank you all.

i realy think DHS had a positive impact on reddit, many people said it was there first comp match they watched and that they liked it enough to stay in till the end
and the only way to end the cliffhanger is S24 Grand Finals obviously ;)

All of my biggest shoutout to the BEAST and hero Dashner who did one hell of a job, and being patient with me while I tried to pick up and learn as fast as possible, also thanks you DavidTheWin for the moral support and help with the score since i was overwelmed by the awesome tight games between the teams so once or twice I might have forgotten my responsibilitys and just cried and cheered with the teams. Shoutout to uberchain for pointing me to right place to get my food just as I was about to die and probably saving my life by doing so ;D!
Shoutout to Crowns/publiclir for the awesome nights/days. Thanks to Hank, Setlet and Beavern who gave me some inspiration about tf2 teamplay and the way to approach the game in new. If I ever play a lan or even close to prem it will be because of this event and the inspirational atmosphere. Ofcourse AMS, Potato, Atomic, Thaigrr, Smirre, Ondkaja, Heny as well!
Big shoutout to all the coaches that attended lan!
Thanks to EsportUnited ofcourse hopefully you can be part in a lot more of Tf2 at Dreamhack!
EDIT
Shit almost for forgott my bro, Turbrotabs :o. Was good seing you again, a shame we didnt have for sparetime to chew some fat and go eat :(.

Also big thanks to our sponsors Leo Vegas, G2A, Arozzi, Swedishhost and Qpad. See you guys at i58.

In all seriousness tho big thanks to everyone at the event for making my first LAN so sick, was so good to finally meet people you've looked up to for years and the pillars of this community. Thanks to uberchain and dashner for helping me out Thurs night also David for containing ads mad drunken rampage.
And thanks Mike for letting me have access to your knees and milky for ur house and airbed. Probably missing a lot more but the entire week is just a mesh of memories so apologies for that.
Roll on i58 is all I can say

Shout out to everyone at Crowns (TF2 team,Girls CS:GO team,and Managers) for making my first LAN one to remember for sure. Also to everyone who helped with production watched most of it all last night and it was incredible. To the community who helped a lot with the funding to get people to LAN wouldn't have been possible without you guys. To Maks for the menthol cigarette, and to everyone else who made it a great LAN. CU@i58!

Shoutouts to everyone who was there. Sick event.
Shoutout to my team mates, you guys are wonderful.
Shoutout to the production crew and casters. The production value was astonishing. So damn impressed; thanks for your hard work.
Shoutout for Milky for being so hospitable. Would this event even have been able to go through without you?
Shoutout to the other teams for playing well and being great people. Same for non-playing attendees. When lately your "TF2 life" mainly consists of just showing up for scrims and officials, you lose a bit of that community feeling, and relations might feel a little cold and distant from an online perspective. But when you actually get together, you realise again how unique it is to have this single thing in common, and how fucking cool it is how we are so passionate about it. I wish I had more time to chill with people. You guys are great.
Same for Jönköping and the rest of what I've seen of Sweden by the way; amazing place, lovely people. A+++, would go back again.
edit: Oh yeah and thanks to the donators and organisers for making this possible of course! Thanks to all the other orgs and sponsors that were involved, awesome that you guys believe in TF2.
