As I have stated in the past, I have been getting a lot of traffic and correspondences/requests from other LAN’s, groups, and the general public. Generally it’s been a good thing, making ties with other groups, building a community, things like that. But lately it’s been from the wannabe MLG ‘Pros’ with no MLG experience at all looking to get sponsorship or tournament wins from my site. I realize many of them are young and want to get noticed and succeed and it’s nice to have a dream and work toward it, but the increasing amount of ‘teams’ looking for sponsorship and/or tournament wins - which I’ve had no tournaments since the beginning months of the LAN - is just getting absurd. I’d love to have a tournament for all those asking but considering their… lack of age, time, and most likely transportation - many would have their parents drive them - I can’t really expect much. As for sponsorship, I don’t bring in lots of money doing the LAN; it’s a hobby basically and personally I’m not swimming in money either. I appreciate the interest and all it’s just become way too extreme.
I think I’m going to cancel the LAN for this week because of the low temperature forecast for the weekend however, I kinda hope to play on XBL that night instead. My GT is Hungry Anorexic. Long story, not so funny name. Hopefully see you online, internet availability permitting.
Welcome to the ‘08 season. This weeks LAN is on hold until further notice. Update on it’s happening can be found out at least by Friday by contacting me.
