Raw War 2007 Round 9

Start: 20 Oct 2007 - 2:00pm

End: 20 Oct 2007 - 20 Oct 2007 - 2:00pm

End: 20 Oct 2007 - 11:30pm

Bonus Event will be a single player (1 vs 1) tournament of Counter-Strike, plus more if we have time.

This will be the last regular round of Raw War, meaning this is your last chance to improve your points tally for the end-of-year prizes. The November Raw War will be Grand Final night with some special events for the highly ranked players and the also-rans, along with some more prizes.

For the drivers, I’m looking for some interest to hold a Grand V8 event either early December or late January. Haven’t decided on the exact format but I’ve listed some options below. Please reply if you’d be interested and which formats you like and don’t like (all formats only use the V8 Supercar Championship).

Option A
2 player teams (choose your own)
10 laps each track
Partners must finish consecutively (ie: 1-2 or 7-8. If they don’t finish consecutively, they are disqualified)
Total points score wins.

Option B
2 player teams (choose your own)
100 laps of Bathurst
Share one vehicle and mandatory pit every 10 laps to swap drivers.

Option C
2 player teams (allocated by me on handicap basis)
10 laps each track
Lead car must enter pits every 5 laps and drivers swap vehicles.

Option D
3 player teams (choose your own, but must have at least one driver outside the Top 10 Racers)
150 laps Bathurst
Share 2 vehicles between 3 drivers
Mandatory pit every 10 laps (for the lead car only)
At each pit, drivers take turns sitting out.
Remaining drivers can takeover whichever car they like.

Let me know what you think.

Also don’t forget Tim is running an overnight Lan around New Year’s Eve (28th) and also the annual 30 hour in January. See www.krostech.biz for more info and to register for these events (compulsory).

As of yesterday I finally have the keys and can start moving and setting up furniture. Not too sure if the actual move is something to look forward to, but the final result will be worth it.

View of the fireplace and the mirror above it! Currently I am aiming to have fully moved by Tuesday, allowing me enough time to set everything up and not have too much stress on one day.

My internet router/modem has been dispatched and will be with me today which is perfect timing as my internet is meant to be connected today as well.

In other news, I also picked up my new glasses yesterday and it’s quite hard getting used to them. I do remember the change always being a problem or taking a while, but this time I’m experiencing double vision, a very much moving floor and I feel about three feet shorter! But that is all to be expected and I am sure it will sort itself soonish.

And now to leave you with this, yet another Halo 3 image. This one is me shooting someone and getting two kills with one shot.

Last but not least, there will be a change to this blog within the next few days, more shall be announced soon.

Lan Party Weekend

This Saturday I attended a Lan Party house party from an invite from my buddy Praxis. Now I’ve been to some lan parties, and Lucky (better known as the hobbit) has some sweet hardware to host lan parties, but we have nothing on these guys. Mickey, the host and the guys that were there are part of Austin Modders.

You may have seen some of their systems if you’ve been to QuakeCon before:
Aside from mucho file sharing we got in a bit of WIC, I got a taste of Supreme Commander, and Praxis and I snuck in some Team Fortress 2 when Mickey wasn’t looking. Unfortunately since I have been feeling under the weather and still recovering from a cold I didn’t feel up to par and booked out a bit early (if you call midnight early).

Here are some pics:

Anyway much thanks to Mickey for opening up his house - was a great party and it was good to meet some other cool ass gamers in the Austin area.
