Update from TooManyGames:

Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update

TooManyGames Scheduled to Continue as Planned:

TooManyGames has been following the recent news coverage of coronavirus (COVID-19). We are in contact with the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center and Montgomery County Office of Public Health (OPH) to monitor the situation. As of now, TooManyGames will be hosted as planned on June 26-28, 2020.

We are still a few months out from TooManyGames, if there are any updates about the status of the show, we will update this page for you. Vendors have received a separate email with communication about the event.

Even though the LAN is still on, obviously this may change if things with the coronavirus get worse. But as of this very moment, the LAN is still happening.

Why did you leave FNRGFE? The team was essentially bound to be picked up in OWL (which they were). Were you not interested in OWL?

I'll find a way to cut down on the tournament time. Just give me a bit of time. :)

It's possible, but we really wouldn't be able to fit much in on Friday. There's quite a few players that don't get in until late on Friday / early Saturday morning, so this will hurt the number of teams. I don't know exactly how badly it will impact the numbers, but I'd also feel bad if people decide to just not go to the LAN at all because they can't arrive early enough on Friday.

I completely understand that a top 3 team will spend a good portion of their day playing in the tournament, but I really do my best to make sure the tournament runs as quickly as possible. Whenever I'm rushing people to get their team in the server / ready up, it's not because I'm being irrational or impatient, but that I'm trying to make it so you're not holding up the tournament for literally everyone else. Every single LAN I get close to DQ'ing a team because people go randomly MIA without asking me, so this can cause heavy delays.

Also as a means to speed things up, I tried to poll people on if we should just remove group stage. I think I did this poll at RGB LAN 3, and out of roughly 16 teams, I think 15 of the teams said that they wanted group stage.

If everyone wants a not-so-long tournament, then we either need to make it without the group stage as double elimination, or group stage into single elimination. If we do group stage into single elimination, then we'd also need to make the groups a bit larger so the seeding is more accurate for the single elimination stage.

Again, we can try to keep it the way as it is and move group stage to Friday night, but I'm extremely apprehensive that 1) team numbers will suffer, 2) because it's purely for seeding, some teams will ask if they can use a ringer if not all of their team has showed up, and 3) matches will already get delayed enough because not everyone has arrived / is still setting up.

When I have an update on rentals, you will hear from me on here immediately.

A lot of people forget about this one, but this was AI's only win of the season. EG ended up tying with my team for the 4th LAN spot, but we won due to head-to-head record I think.

If EG won this match, they would have qualified for LAN.

TooManyGames and RGB LAN have been canceled.

Full statement and details on refunds are here: https://toomanygames.com/news/toomanygames-2020-cancelled/

Sorry, everyone. 2020 continues to suck. Stay safe.

You do not need to drink this much water, lol. Nothing anecdotal will ever show this. Most doctors will tell you to drink when you're thirsty, and you can also gauge this by the color of your urine. The whole "8 glasses of water per day" or anything like that is total bullshit.

A bottle of multivitamins can be a good investment if your diet is pretty bad and/or really lacking in certain areas. This answer entirely depends on your diet in general, as you'll just pee out everything you don't need.

Dashner's actions are completely reprehensible, and I'm extremely saddened for Console and Uberchain that they had to go through what they did. Even though Dashner has helped with production for GXL, he didn't give off any impressions that he was abusive in this way at that time. I think I remember he had some trouble with drinking, but certainly not this.

If anything like this happens (or has happened) at RGB, please do not hesitate to let me know, as uncomfortable as that may be. LANs are meant to be a fun and safe space for everyone to meet, play, and have a wonderful time. These kinds of disgusting acts deserve no excuses.

I still stand by the statement that this is the best community, period. This isn't indicative of what this community represents, and we deserve better.

Yeah, this is bullshit. Not contacting Alfa (or anyone) that's banned from the event to let them know they are no longer allowed to come is not cool, but to not even tell Alfa what this behavior concern is? Total bullshit. The idiot vomited in my hotel room after a big italian dinner and a few drinks, sure, but he's never been anywhere close to a problem at any LAN I've attended or help run (GXL / RGB). Additionally, not a single person has ever approached me at GXL / RGB or messaged me through Steam to report concerning behavior about Alfa.

Of course, if the evidence is extremely egregious, then obviously he should be banned, but he should still have the right to know what it is. While I think Alfa is sometimes a bit of a dumbass, I don't think he'd go through all of this trouble if he knew that his possibly awful act of whatever could get leaked out. If it's about the oofpez thing that happened months ago, yeah Alfa was dramatic and dumb. Go let the boy "take a run in the woods" or whatever. However, if the ban is over that, I'm honestly gonna be disappointed.

People have been banned from GXL / RGB, and it wasn't a mystery to any of them on the details or why it happened. But are you really sure that Alfa has concerning behavior? It's Alfa. Just make fun of him and he'll go away. All he does at LAN is drink shitty beer and reminisce about moments in pugs that no one gives a shit about.

edit: Alfa has been reinstated while I typed this up, but I'll keep this up because I made fun of him.

This is easily the most important post in this thread.

I'll actually go to this eventually. :(

Regardless, looking forward to another great event. :3
