Hey guys.
Im realy into gaming and i know that there are quite a few people on ehere that are aswell. So i was thinking of maybe a majority of people interested come a CKA Lan party. I run lan parties at www.playas.ca which is alot of fun. I mean like brent and brandon are great.
Anyways, im just curious to see who is all interested. Vote in the poll. Depending on that decides the next steps.
Not a HUGE gamer, but i play them enough to know my way around them..
What type of games u talkin here? I assume FPS..
Yea maybe have a few different games going on at once. Some counter-strike, some bf2. I can pull all the sponsers over from playas to sponser us, so hardware (switches ect..) are no problem.
I definitely love BF2, and as of in two days, hardware won't be a prob for me anyways...
As for sponsors, not an issue.. i work and co-own a web template sales team and webhosting provider.. but like i said, gaming isn't my real specialty
thats great because i help and 'co-own' a colocation center (ironcolo.com) and im starting a webhosting company in about a month..
Maybe we could build a website for the CKA LAN.. i can code php, perl, mysql and learning oracle.
BF1942 ??
I would love to do this, problem is.. "CANADA IS REALLY BIG"
But such is Canada, there are lots of members in Ontario, an Ontario lan might be possible for those members.
i figured that this would come and glad you did.
I have some friends in high places. Aslong as we did a a vpn setup all locations would be able to play.
*(GIVE AND TAKE)*
We could easily do a bc, alberta, ontario, quebec lan. We could even divide them up into provincial teams, that would connect to like a vpn host, (likely my colo comp could do somerthing along tier-3 or oc3 which would give us about 50-100 ping from bc to onario
I don't have BF2 :/ or BF1942, or any of the games you lsited except CSS...
well that sounds good there dodd. add me on msn. we'll talk. and im already calling bc too see where the best fibre location is that can fit a bunch of gamers
I have hosted numerous lans in Hope,BC with friends. We have used this site many times for organization:
http://lan.canadaka.net/
its just sitting there unused atm.
some of you might know I also do web hosting to help pay for the rack servers i bought for this site. I also do web design, but hanv't had the time recently becasue of my work. But since i quit my job last month i have moe time now.

As for a interprovince lan, it all depends if there is the interest to get enough people out. Its definatly a project worth trying
