thank mr davidthewin for the pictures on twitter

big ups to Heny!

thanks to twitch chat for all the copypastas

also <3 nuze

thanks to all the casters and analysts who were great :) . Special shoutouts to Nuze who was amazing with his weather man screen and War who I really feel turned it up for this LAN. Also shoutout to Ombrack who was amazing despite being relatively new to casting.

And of course the backroom staff, the organisers etc. Shame I couldn't be there but it was an absolute joy to watch from my couch

Event was great, production was big, games were good. Congrats to Se7en!

Seriously though, I'm really impressed by the production value (Professor Nuze, rollout cams, stats, etc), good job and thanks to everyone involved!

This LAN was awesome!

It reached peaks i would have never thought that TF2 could touch. Thanks Mr. Production :+1:

War is our own 2GD. Never fucking change

thanks all the players for putting on this great show

thanks all the producers, casters and behind the scenes people for making this event possible, making the awesome HUD, and doing all of those things wonderfully

Shout out to essentials the production quality and all the visuals were fucking dope

thanks everyone, great lan and only gets better. especially thanks to heny and aoshi for dealing with the tournament arrangement and all the other organisers behind the scenes. see you next year :D

Shoutout to my friends I shared a gamer house with:
Mrjelly, a boy so special i61 staff gave him a wheelchair on the second day. He also somehow got a number which he believed belonged to b4niel. He tested it by calling. He was correct.
Stneve, a beautiful Scottish boy with a beautiful voice
Twiikuu, who will probably have finished i61.tf within the next week or so
Pie4life, generally awesome person who is fun to hug
ChrisWalkerTalker, a Russian angel and I hope she can be there again next year and not get shadowburn'd
Zoot, a beautiful American boy. I love him very much.
Dural, a really cool person who shared a house with people he barely knew aside from Twiikuu. I'm glad to have met you you're a cool person
ArchRythm, who helped out with production so we sadly did not spend a lot of time together. This man sacrificed himself for esports. true dedication

More shoutouts to:
Boomawrangler who was going to the gamer house as well but had to cancel only a couple of days before LAN. We'll meet one day
Spud and Donut. i'm glad to have finally met you. I've known Spud and some of the people above for almost 4 years now.
Davidthewin for being awesome, carrying tf2 for such a long time and getting me a BYOC guest pass
Troublemakers for helping my friends get BYOC guest passes
Aoshi and Aoshi's ETF2L shirt so I could recognize him on the flight to Birmingham
Landunderwave for being cool and traveling all the way from Singapore
Grumpykoi for being a cool dude
Plunk for being hilarious
Turbotabs and Paddie for being cool and trusting us enough to spend the night at our gamer house where we watched truktruk's stream on a big projector with like 12 people.
Sil for being the friendliest drunk person I've ever met
All the comp players I was too shy to approach and just admired from a distance
Can't forget about the entire essentials.tf crew ofcourse. They did amazing work. Not sure if it's common knowledge at this point how that HUD works but hats off to the guy who made it. The entire HUD was an OBS overlay
Shoutout to twitch chat. Chat replay doesn't show up in the VOD but chat was filled with hearts when I said goodbye https://clips.twitch.tv/GoodAuspiciousHummingbirdSwiftRage
I would never have met 99% of you if it wasn't for the TF2 Twitch community and I'm very grateful for that
