Well, I haven't had a party at my house yet... but I don't know if I want to make a LAN party my first. Although I do have a big place...
hmm, but would you be able to handle a bunch of yelling rowdy men in ur house? i dunno if you could handle this...
I think I can handle the kind of men that play LAN video games. Although you're like 3 feet taller than I am, all the other guys are whimps. Bring it.
wow... thats a dis to gamers... haha, im just big and fat... im sure theres some jacked gamers out there...
Please - there are very few muscle-bound gamers. And you're not fat, you're just big-boned.
i dunno, ive seen a few... lol and yeah... im gettin fat... its KILLING me...
Stop it! You're not fat. Compare yourself now to how you looked when you were 15 - you're at a much healthier weight now.
nah he's fat, stop trying to build up his self esteem!
Well then he must have a really big bone in his...
Too much South Park
I think I may have to take offense to this. lol
i would if i were you....
if it's on a saturday, it would have to be later in sept for us since we are going to the JC project. or it would have to be a fri or sun. night. and since the world DOES revolve around me-DO IT!
im away in Dallas alot in Sept and middle of Oct... soo... id need to plan around that...
ok, well since I'm not a nerd...I'm going to go with...no...but thanks for the invite (no offense to all those who like this stuff....except Mike...he can take offense, cause I just really don't like him)
um... and WHY arent you a nerd? You have not presented me with any evidence to support this... from where im standing, a good 3 feet taller than you... you ARE a nerd... so take THAT buddy...
yea, you really got me there...good one
why dont you come up with come backs that ARENT from Can't Hardly Wait...
Are you guys playing Halo? Or whatever it was you played last time cause that looked fun.
yup, we are gonna play Halo probably... some Half Life and probably Unreal 2004.... i think
Playing on PC or X-box?
hmm im feeling PC... just cause we have more of a varity... but, xbox is easier to setup. I mean when it comes to Halo... ill mop the floor with any of you regardless of what you play me on...
Yeah whatever mike I've heard that from you I can't even count how many times and it seems like everytime you get housed. lol
uh uh... im gettin better... i owned all in the last xbox party... im telling ya... im gettin better... i think everyone can beat me in unreal tho... im horrible at that.
I was thinking more along the lines of mech assault because from what I've heard Janine owns you in that game. lol
You owned all in the last xbox party in halo?? I hope that wasnt the time you played with us, because I dont even think you showed, and if you did, I couldnt tell...
haha, not that time, altho, i have to say, we gotta good team going up here.. i think we could stomp you guys pretty badly....
Thats what the previous eight players who came down from NY said, and they went home probably crying. They were whineing about having a 4 on 4 so we did, our worse 4 against their best four, and we beat them. Good times....
hmm well if thats the case ill just sit on you.
you guys always kick butt.... mike stinks in comparison. hahah
if you play any fighting games i would deff come...(and win, of course) ;)
if somes got a PS2 with Soul Calibur2 and the new Street Fighter 10th Anniversary compilation--that'll be a happenin' clam bake.
why is this on a wednesday night?? that's my evening witnessing time.
dude.. didnt you READ!!!... i just made up the date... we need to discuss and DECIDE on a date...
Ok good because my ASL bookstudy is on wed nights.
but i am not good at halo at all - will there be any car racing games (shows how much of a chick i am - don't know the names of the games)
mike can my brother come, he's really good at halo?
hahaha... well it depends on where we are... i mean, if we are AT my apt... i can see if we can set up some GameCube action and there will some car games.... i cant fit THAT many people in my apt is the only problem.
but yeah, ur bro can def come... i KNOW i met him somewhere before... i cant remember where tho.
Could have it my place, but I think i'm pretty much way too far for just about everyone here
You're out in PA, right? how far? lol
hehe south jersey dude, tuckerton, near LBI
oh.. why did i think u were out in PA? you LIED to me last night!!! lol.. hmm thats not THAT far... 2 hours driving at a good clip for me... i mean... we are somewhat outta options... i mean my apt is kinda small and upstairs... i got enough equipment tho... and if we get IWZ to contribute and help out... im sure we could set up a pretty sweet wireless network as well.
last night? huh hehe i didnt talk to you last night!
im kinda nill on equipment at the moment, i only have a 10mb hub
apartment is sorta big, could rearrange some of the furniture pretty easily
aw man, not even a 10/100? lol. Sok... i think between all the nerds on here we could come up with a few hubs... i got a 4 port myself. Yeah... i dont wanna impose that on anyone, i know how much trouble IIII get into if i rearrange the apt TOO much.
Whats the usual setup? Big long conference table? Otherwise we could just setup on my dining room and living room pretty much the way it is, just put up some cardboard, some covers, good to go
haha, ideally yeah, what we did last time was just setup a buncha folding card tables and told people to bring laptops. I had wires running all over the floor and taped to walls, it was great!
Everyone should come to my place....I'll host it AND I'll fed everyone. And you'll have a place to sleep. :)
It's a bit of a drive, though.......
i'll only come if Halo or Unreal is played on Xbox. i'm not really the COMPUTER gaming sort. consoles are for me.
but i'll keep an eye open, and if it turns into an Xbox Halo tourny--i'll join! doesn't look promising tho. i know a lot of people play these games on computers. i may have to make an event of my own of one these days.
we actually have had a few xbox gaming sessions.. they are fun, but there is way more games for PC and lan parties... its just easier to do it that way... cmon man, do it up!
my computer is weak and unnetworked. i've got a measly 2GHz Pentium4, 256mb DDR SDRAM, a pretty weak graphics card. I've never REALLY tried to play games on here, but I have a good feeling it wouldn't work out well. I got it at Circuit City for crying out loud!
"i've got a measly 2GHz Pentium4, 256mb DDR SDRAM"
Im assuming this is sarcastic.
Get a 512MB or another 256MB DDR for like under 100 bucks, get ATI radeon, lets re-os that system with win2k or winXP (not that trashone that comes preloaded) and your good to go my man.
I only got a 1.4GHZ, 512MB, but it rocks. You'd be suprised at how much the ATI Radeon can handle.
If you need help let me know
I DO need help. Lets do it!
I'd like to add 512mb and some fancy graphics card. how much would those run?
Yeah I'm pretty much the same way.
im not a gamer so im not gonna come take up space
Ok, well my bro has two tvs and plenty of space but no xboxes, but if we do it in the next week or two we might be able to do it there.
sorry. i work on wed. nights. and i don't wanna sit and watch you all play again. so stupid.
for the BILLIONTH time... its NOT a real date... i just made it up... and really... what ELSE do you do on a weekend...? hm?
I'll come, but I prolly won't play. Unless of course there is a MADDEN tourney happening.
yeah, i'm not playing unless it's Amped 2.
hmm, heres a thought... why dont you guys go shop at the mall with the rest of the girls... oh.. and maybe you can pick up some food while ur out prancing around... ya know, for all the MEN that are back at the house.
OK, I've been waiting for an oppotunity like this.... I can have it at my house. The whole house is wired with jacks (16) I really want to have Pcs and Xboxs going at the same time. I love both. Come one come all. Either day on the weekend, No fridays... Xbox down stairs, PCs upstairs.
Where do you live?
Stanhope NJ 07874, its close to where Mike lives.
Wow. Brandon, right? THIS sounds amazing. Pick a date!
hahaha... i knew bran would come through for me... what dates from the poll can you pull off man? Any weekends other than that maybe?
Well, I'm not sure is people are planning on going on vacation or not but I'm thinking the 5th would be great. sunday night, no work the next day.. no meetings the next morning..
I have my District convetion that weekend so I guess I won't be attending. Maybe next time.
lol you are the ONLY one that doesnt have work the next day! lol... i think saturday would work best for me and maybe go to your meeting, lol. Does that work for anyone else?
word!
well I work nights, so I really never work the next day I just work later that same day.
Actually most people do have off it is labor day on that monday.
wow... good thinking mike... 2000 RockSupastar eZabel points to you! So yes... we COULD have it sunday!
haha, i thought you realized there was a holiday the next day, thats what I meant by no work the next day oh man...
Yeah I know that, Mikes just a little slow sometimes and needs things pointed out to him, as I'm sure your aware. lol
talk alot now big man, well see who gets royally beaten at this party...
Yeah well you might have gotten that chance but I can't make it the weekend you guys are doing it. :-P
the whole weekend?
Yeah I have the district convention and am staying up there.
hey thanks for the invite, i just started playin halo, maybe i can drop by this time
but i just looked at the date, i got college lol so i dunno, not sure yet
a bunch of guys playing computer games. sounds like fun. If you feel like driving down past LBI, you guys can have it at our place and you can arrange the furniture any way you like..... but only if i'm allowed to go shopping or something, or otherwise just not be home! hahaha
xbox or pc.. which one..
i have no pc games though.. except UNREAL 2004 and i'd totally own..
halo for xbox .. i used to be good at, but it's been at least a year since i've played.
So what games will be played the most... so i can practice
Halo!
we should have a twister tournament. I will pants fivezero haha
maybe if you DID come around and we all talked this years-long crazy streak would finally blow over. it's not like we'd try anything.
don't pants me--cuz i usually go commando!
Now there was way too much information given.
Do you wear underwear all the time?
I really don't think this is a conversation I want to have. lol
Chicken. Do you want to talk about D&D and perhaps how to talk with your fingers?
Why would I want to talk about D&D and I already know how to talk with my fingers. lol
Would you like to speak about talking with our fingers with our mouths?
Games to be played:
PC:
Unreal Tournament 2004
Halo PC
Starcraft (if we have enough people who want to play)
Quake 3
Xbox:

Man starcraft is such a great game. I haven't played that in ages.
ian you have a copy of starcraft for me... like you have a copy of something else.... I can't remember what that was, do you know?

anyone got a copy of that?
dud i'm so there this saturday, i need directions...

i call dibs on half of that six pack
lets make it a 12 pack then. haah
good idea, because i was gonna call dibs on the other half of that six pack.
don't forget Mouse/Keyboard
Hey, this better be on Sunday. There's no way I'll be able to stay late if it's on Saturday.
Come on now, the night before Labor Day is such a better night than the night before a meeting. Seriously now. Come on.
I agree completely. Sunday is perfect. It seems a couple have a grad party or something. I say bail.
YEA SUNDAY NIGHT COME ON.. SUNDAY
dude i'm going to a Halo lan party sunday with way more alcohol than this. We need for this one to be on Saturday..
Ok, everybody, Sunday it is!
btw, this is not an official announcement, as i have nothing to do with the planning on this event
Ok, sunday it is.
Why is there only 3 people going to this event???? Are all you losers in the maybe catagory not going? Ian? wake up dude... Superhero? Fivezero? Anyone that doesnt click yes will NOT be allowed in the door. I will personally throw you beating, throw you outside and run you over with my honda! DO IT
I feel as though this hostility is coming from a very angry place (a place where nobody's comin' to the party) AH HA HA HA tosses head back... evil laughter ensues :-X
Don't be fooled--Ezabelers don't like saying they'll be anywhere until the last moment! That may seem like we're fairweather friends, but HEY, WHATEVAH. Most of us decide at the last moment which direction our weekends will take.
Stillll, I'm thinking this parties gonna be hoppin'.
I invited Larry Dedio and Sal Scavuzzo. Larry was into it, but they're going to Malea's grad party, so who knows if he'll show up. Dunno about Sal either.
nice!!! anyone else you can think of?
Could I bring a couple guys?
you can bring people ONLY if they are HARD core gamers... no lame people that are just looking to do something on a Sunday...
and, they NEED to have pc's... we are trying to lean this towards a PC lan party... we CAN have Xboxes there... but playing only one game the entire night will be lame. And regardless, ill beat everyone in Halo on Xbox as it is...
You're nuts. Looks like you're going back to SCHOOL on SUNDAY before all the kiddies.
lotta talk ... you better clean your shoes my friend... cause your gonna be stuffing it ALL up ur mouth after im done with you... OHHHHHHHHH
yeah, but not soo hardcore I can't beat them.... make sure they are hardcore but to too hardcore, a pushover/hardcore type would be perfect.
lol, like mike!
so it's definitely on Sunday?
most def man... you gonna be there?
bah im out :( aint happening
beat. sunday no good?
too many cons, its like 2 hour drive, i only got quakeIII, and breaking the PC down its too tedious, plus not a good idea since the wifey needs it for business :\
ah well time for a new notebook
proxy me in? hehe
haha, WAN games....niceeeeee
if we can get a VPN working, we'll give you the info, np
holy....now thats impressive
hahaha... ian talks alot.. but then when it gets down to the setting up and troubleshooting, he's off shooting the breeze with the ladies...
ladies in the video game
haha... hm that would be a new low for him hahaha
so there were a bunch of 'xbox playas' coming from dover, but I found out that they are having thier own lan party. I tried to get then all to come here, but its too late. so we will have some, but little support for the xbox. sorry gents
I'm down with the xbox, yo. I know of a couple others who'd be down, too.
I'm down too.
for those of you that are coming... feel free to bring something. I like to tell people to bring what they want to have there, so everyone is coverred. I'm talking snacks, drinks, beer is fine, but lets keep it reasonable (ilikebirds)
thanks
playa please
I need directions and to know what time it is. I want to show up...
it's all in the info up top
this thing is tomorrow. i doubt anyone will see this in time, but ARE PEOPLE PLAYING XBOX!? i sure hope so. if not i'll stay home...and play xbox.
is it me or is the time screwy?
yeah, the time is screwy!
ha yea cus it's like 3:15 am
My good excuse is that I'm not within driving distance. Also a recent talk that we had.
Wow. 12 player in the basement. I happen to know--had I attended--NO ONE WOULDA PLAYED HALO ON XBOX. seems like that how things go for me. stinks. i was excited.
family from florida visited. i really couldn't bail. part of me wishes i had, HA! next time for sure.
of course i was a NO show again. stupid people.
i hate it. something always has to go wrong.
yeah, like you turn gay!!!!!!!!!!
ok, i voted 4 Oct. since it's almost the end of Sept. & i've bin away & just got back on Sept. 13th. Hey everyone!
