I've met quite a few people here who like fighting games, and I've gathered some interest in going to EVO 2014. It's in Las Vegas during July 11-13. That's quite a while from now, but this gives everyone a bunch time to practice and get plane tickets / other transportation situated. We will split hotel rooms and such. If you have friends interested in going, it's fine if they join the group as well. Join the group if you're interested:

Also, registration is open: http://evo.shoryuken.com/registration/#

We play a few times a week in SF4 lobbies.

I went to EVO 2011, and I can tell you for the spectator experience alone, it's definitely worth it.

this is wonderful

it was pretty okay for the past week, now it's cold as fuck and snowed a little in south jersey

winter sucks

I really wanna know what "league level players" he talked to.

There are only about three I remember, all around the age of 11. I used TheFragile when I was about 13.

Solidsnake (One of my very first aliases, lol. SORRY MANNY.)
^_^ (No one knew how to pronounce this, not even myself.)
i-own-you (I was one of the best online at NHL Hitz Pro, so apparently I had to let everyone know.)

Holy fuck yes, I'm coming back.

I've been playing a bit more lately. Quake 3/Live CTF is the best shit in the world, but I enjoy duels, too.

If we got in-house 4v4 CTF, I would spray cum everywhere.

During the eighth grade, I was doing in-school suspension for some reason that I will never remember. At some point, someone threw up. Janitor gets called, he starts cleaning it up, etc. While that is happening, the kid in front of me is getting a little annoying. I was kinda friends with him, but he was still annoying lol. Eventually, I said something like "shut up before I smack your bald head" to the kid in front of me (he had a shaved head, he wasn't a cancer patient or anything l0l). It wasn't a malevolent statement, because we were joking with each other for a while.

Welp, after I said that, janitor turns around and said "I heard what you said" and walks out.

?

Janitor walks back in with principal, points at me, and says "He called me fat and bald."

????????

I get suspended for five days.

????????????????????????????????????????????

I met someone through a friend who was pretty chill. I knew him for about four or five years, something like that. I didn't see him often or talk to him much outside of social gatherings, but he was still a really cool guy that I could relate to.

He hung himself. Everyone was devastated, but it didn't hit me nearly as hard at first because I wasn't close friends with him compared to everyone else. Still, it sucked. Well, the viewing came, and I was absolutely a disaster. I was torn to pieces by losing someone I wasn't that close with. In fact, he is pretty much the only person I've known that passed away that had some sort of friendship with me.

I've had a very similar conversation with enigma a while ago, and we came to basically the same conclusion that you did. I absolutely wouldn't mind trying to get something together to host a TF2 LAN (very possible, since GXL could probably hold a tournament-only LAN party). However, I just know that not many people would be interested in traveling long distances to make it.

It would also be awesome to have European teams come, but there is no way that would happen without a decent guaranteed prize pot.

Try doing the commands that I gave you in the command prompt if you haven't already.

Actually, instead of me typing out one of five possible problems to this, just add me on steam: the_frail

I'll be on later tonight. We can cyber, etc. I can also use remote desktop software that I have at my job, so if you can at least get internet through a wired connection, I can look around on your computer.

So, if you're trying to set the default gateway manually, but it never saves it, what does it revert to? And what's the default gateway you're using?

Also, how are you adding it manually? Through the control panel? If so, try doing this through the command prompt:

route delete default

route add default 10.0.0.1 (or whatever your default gateway is)

Also also, is your router G or N? And is your computer G or N? Yes, I'm aware N broadcasts G as well, but answer the question. :p

It is incredibly dumb how subjective each and every situation can be handled by admin discretion because "it's up to the admins."

correct.

If Torbull says these kinds of decisions are "up to the admins," then boycotting the actual league itself is going down the wrong path.

hint hint.
