    Streaming video?

    So great. They show ALL the matches, give tons of commentary, do tons of interviews, and give away stuff randomly.


    I'll see about that random interviewing.

    Mad Man, they have another CPL event here in Texas during Winter break.

    Just got here this morning. Decided to take more pics while the place was pretty empty.

    This is the front entrance and registration booth. Both the entrance and the exit are guarded by two big guys that check any bags you're bringing in or out. Well, not in, but they'll have a quick check when you're on your way out.
    <a href='http://img159.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc000924aj.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img159.imageshack.us/img159/5001/dsc000924aj.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>

    The first thing I did when I went in was to see if my friend was there. He wasn't, but his computer was. I woulda played on it, but he wasn't logged in. I decided to take a pic of this, because it made me laugh.
    <a href='http://img159.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc000932ul.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img159.imageshack.us/img159/3586/dsc000932ul.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>

    HOORAY, THEY'RE SHOWING SPACEBALLS! I love this scene.

    Oh, did I forget to mention the rock climbing wall?
    <a href='http://img159.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc000967lb.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img159.imageshack.us/img159/3415/dsc000967lb.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>

    I went over to the big stage/theater, only to find that Fatal1ty was playing a Painkiller match!
    <a href='http://img159.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc001002tn.jpg' target='_blank'><img src='http://img159.imageshack.us/img159/1122/dsc001002tn.th.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a>
    Fatal1ty isn't really the best player around anymore, but he's still one of the most well-known guys and still really good. In this match, he won the first round by one point, lost the second round by one point, and then in the final round he was getting **** and just went ON FIRE, ending the round with a 14 point lead.

    These were the two commenators on the match. They're very good at their jobs, they don't get overly excited over nothing and they actually know the maps and weapons and players.

    What's that? You can't see them well? Well, let me try again.

    Lets see if this is better...

    Eh? You still can't see them well? Let me try one last time...

    A very special thanks to the members of the Team Sportscast Network (TSN), for letting me go up the off-limits stairs which they would normally NEVER allow.

    As if geeks rock climb! They'd just use the footholds to store their Bawls in.
  • OmegamanOmegaman Join Date: 2004-01-11 Member: 25239Members
    I believe if you reached the top you would find a pile of free sponser t-shirt, which I know most geeks would try to climb for. I think once they start getting free stuff, they feel the need to get them all, like a game they want to 100% complete.

    SG: Just sitting down there, having a good time, eh?
    OmegaNoxim: Yup. Good news: There's this really reall really cute chick with hawt glasses using the laptop next to me. Bad news: Her boyfriend is with her in the beanbag and they're totally cuddling.
    OmegaNoxim: Using my superstealthy ninja skills, I just secretly got two pictures of her without them ever noticing. The angle;s kinda bad, but let's see how they came out.
    KB: Aight. XD
    OmegaNoxim: God, she's hot. Tanned skin, great curves but not too busty, and glasses that make her ten time even hotter/cuter.
    KB: imageshack.us
    OmegaNoxim: I'm on it right now.
    KB: k :-(
    KB: *:-)
    OmegaNoxim: Damnit! the angle on the first one was too low to get her boobs. Let's try the second one.
    KB: k. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    KB: I would laugh if they looked over onto your laptop and saw themselvesa. XD
    OmegaNoxim: Double damnit!
    KB: Awww.
    OmegaNoxim: Okay, I'm going for a third pic. It's riscky, but I HAVE to do it.
    KB: GOOD LUCK, SOLDIER.,
    KB: Or for fun, get up and leave for a few minutes, run over with a mask, and take a picture in plain view of them, and RUN AWAYYY
    OmegaNoxim: K, got tree more pics. They're all a bit off target so it wouldnt look like it's aimed at them.
    KB: Woo.
    OmegaNoxim: I've never felt like such a creep. But this is really outstandingly hot. I don't I could caputre the perfectly tanned skin with all the neon lighting.
    OmegaNoxim: Yeah, theses are much better.
    KB: Koo.
    KB: Hah
    KB: Being a creep is fine.
    KB: So long as you give me the pics. ;-)

    Note: To protect the innocent, all of the names have been changed except mine, because while one part of me feels it was totally worth it, the other does not feel very innocent right now. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    P.S. I got those three pictures <i>right</i> on time, because as of now, my camera is offically out of batteries for the day. Batteries well spent?

    Do you have to take a route or is it just scramble to the top? And more pics of the girl at all costs <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I hear you Mullet.

    But damn. That hotel looks niiiiiice~
  • OmegamanOmegaman Join Date: 2004-01-11 Member: 25239Members
    Yeah, dudes. The Gaylord hotel is gigantic, they practically had to tear down an entire forest to make room. And it's effing nice too, and when I say nice, I mean ROYALTY nice. Like, you can order your food to be made by Wolfgang Puck himself.

    Actually, there were quite a few more hot chicks there (at their own free will) than I thought there would be. I'm no stranger to the concept of a hot gamer, but I swear every year it gets more and more popular. I mean, dude, we got JOHN ROMERO this year.

    If I see ONE MORE Painkiller match, I'm going to rip my hair out. IT'S THE SAME MAP, SAME KILLS, SAME WEAPONS, SAME STRATEGY OVER AND OVER AND OVER FOR A NONSTOP 15 MINUTES.

    I WANT MY WARCRAFT 3.

    Btw, check out my neat-o beanie and tshirt I got. $15 for both of them.
