Shout out to all the fine people who helped me put this event on.

Our fine casting and analyst team. Getawhale, kaidus, bren, truktruk, fragile, dreamboat, maelaa, slin and extine.

To our production team who worked crazy hours to bring you the show. Thanks Todd (Director) Sam (Graphics Operator) Kyle (Replay Operator) and Tino (Observer) and DrShadowPuppet (Server Admin) who ran like 12 servers by himself. These guys did a phenomenal job!

All the volunteers we had at Esports Arena that made the event a possibility.

To Dan (Teapot) from the Halo and Shadowrun communities for the work he did to make those games happen.

To all the teams that came out from all over the world. It was amazing to meet you all. I truly felt like a part of your community!

To Dashner who created the textures in game for us and loves this community more than anyone I think. Can't wait for the Doc.

To everyone that let me interview them for the documentary I'm working on! You were all amazing

To Cody and all those at Weedmaps for making this event the spectacle it deserved to be.

To marketplace.tf for always supporting TF2 to the fullest.

I'm sure I'm forgetting so many people but I just want to say how much I truly enjoyed making this event a possibility. I would love to have a Rewind 2.0 and don't see a reason why it wouldnt happen!

Thank you so much to everyone that tuned in and watched the event. From everyone at Esports Arena, we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!

P.S. A massive shout-out to Samiface who I didn't forget, I just like to give her a hard time. This was the first event she's worked on since joining our team here at Esports Arena and I think it's safe to say it was a great success. Amazing job Samantha. I'm proud of you!

Thanks to everyone who came out to lan and participated! Still here at the hotel missing all my fellow gamers, but from talking with everyone, it sounds like everyone had a blast.

Thanks for those who organized the event, behind the scenes and the ones who played.

It takes a great deal of work from a bunch of people for these events to come together, and it appears to have been done right.

Thanks everyone to make this awesome community :D ,but am sad cause some teams maybe are gonna disband

Big thank you to you for keeping logs updated frequently with the Invite Tournament as well as with the Oven Tournament, it is great to analyze stats and you did an amazing job on top of things.

Thanks to everyone for the support over the last 2.5 years, It was one hell of a ride

Can confirm.

I would like to thank nature for not killing the tf2 community with the flash flood.

Huuuge thank you to Moof for giving me and a billion other people rides to and from airports and the arena... and also to her and falking for just making it possible for me to attend LAN in the first place.

YOU'RE SO BAD

Getawhale is really good at what he does, thanks getawhale.

HUGE thanks to samiface for being the best host I've literally ever met. She planned, ran, and adminned the event, opened up her home (and her wallet) far too many times to help all of us out, she was extremely welcoming and always upbeat, I could go on. The rest of the foreigners and I were just astounded at how lovely she was. Thanks for making the LAN a success and realising the dream of an intercontinental tournament on North American soil.

This x100
Huge shout out to moof for picking me up from the airport and taking us to tgi Fridays at 11am and driving us around all weekend. Honestly don't know what would have happened if it hadn't been for her paying for my hotel room when my clown ass couldn't show a proper ID... and that's not even to mention letting me borrow her webcam and headphones and monitor once her team was knocked out of the tourney... thanks so much moof you are literally my mom lmao
Shoutout to my teammates and everyone on rik's team who patiently waited Sunday morning when I got into the venue like an hour and a half after we were supposed to have stsrted grand finals, and for making the games super close and interesting. Some of the most intense tf2 I have ever played and I had a blast doing it.
Shout out to cookie for keeping me company and mooching off moof's hotel room, shout out to shiki and frenzy for letting me borrow a mousepad on friday, shoutout to everyone else I met and hung out with along with anyone I didn't get the chance to talk to. Was an amazing weekend and am super glad I got to come out and spend time with you guys.
Also shoutout to smesi and all the clowns in chat who tuned in to watch my stream at lan (also shoutout to ondkaja for putting up with my shit and carrying the fuck out of us when we ran no medic in lower bracket finals)

s8 harbleu carried that team way harder than raymon did lolz

Shoutouts to:
-Every single person who helped make this LAN happen.
-My team! (Jojo, Redshirt, Soggy, Ly, and Quartz)
-Everyone who randomly dropped by our hotel room to play melee, and helped us get rid of excess alcohol.
-All the people I got to meet. It was so cool to finally put names to new faces, and see some familiar ones as well.
-Antecedent, for letting me teach him Invite-level solitaire strats
