I was being sarcastic bro, I'm not paleo. I mean, my diet usually ends up being mostly paleo, but it's not cause I'm trying to follow some paleo ideology.

Do people actually like the idea of a draft LAN? Are that many people going to skip because they can't win the thing? Making it a draft would make me not want to go. I'd rather play with the people I want to then randomly get put on a team with the 5 people most likely to win. At both x3o and w2z, I had a blast simply because of the people on my team, not any ambition to win any money.

I'd rather it be a draft because that makes it more about meeting everyone. you can still hang out with your friends kevin!

I think the draft idea is bad like stealth said.

I think drafts are a bad idea for trying to plan a LAN. In ramping up for a potential lan, we want people participating in the game again, and getting a team together to play with at the LAN.

This is pretty much the most exciting part of this for me, is realy having a decent reason to get into playing this game again. Wouldn't be there for a draft.

I'm not someone who would win money at something like this. It's just nice to have something to actually play for. I'm going to be playing with the same people but we'll actually have a reason to scrim together.

i think theres a lot of advantages in taking plenty of time to plan this. if we do this lan, say in the next few months, youre not going to bring back that many old players that arent playing now already. and i think giving more time would allow more teams to form, especially if the older players come back, and play together over the next year. if the goal is to have a big send off, then having the build up to something like this to make sure everything is in order is a smart idea.

as sears and some others mentioned before, i dont think having one or two small lans is out of the question either. i just think going all out would be something really amazing for this game, so if we could do it, i think we should try.
