Firstly, I hope everyone got some sleep last night!
tim, i dont think 30 hour lans are a good idea, because the guys dont seem to be able to stay awake :P lol. just kidding guys.
What games are under discussion for RAW WARS? i know Tim said something about it when the pizzas came, but i wasnt listening. I'm sure i heard something about DOTA, which would be AWESOME!

If you want us to try a game at the 30 hour LAN then please bring it along and we can try it. It would be a good thing if you could let us know in advance though. Don't forget to sign up and register for the 30 hour LAN

List the games you would like to play here - I'll do my wish list as an example.

Warcraft 3 DOTA Allstars
Far Cry
UT2004 Invasion (maybe with Instagib)
Flat Out
V8 Supercars 2
First To Fight
Wolfenstein ET
C&C Generals
Empire Earth 2
Battlefield 2

Wayne is going to trial a new concept in 2006 for at least the first couple of RAW WAR Tournaments.

For both the Driving Game and the Strategy Game we will run 2 simultaneous games on multiple servers if necessary. This will allow players to choose the game they join.

For example when its the drving game we will run servers of V8 Supercars2 and possibly Flat Out or Powerslide (any other alternatives anybody?) Players can then choose which game type they join. Top ranked players will be required to join the top server if there is more than one server.
Thus you will be able to compete at your level and still gain points out of the round.
Ask Wayne for the details on the points but basically players will be ranked in a server and given points from the results.

We will also consider this with the Strategy game running maybe Warcraft DOTA Allstars alongside Generals.

What do you reckon? Which games do you prefer? If you have any others to recommend add them in the comments. They need to be a 8 (or more) player game so this rules out Need For Speed unfortunately.

Wayne has suggested that we run 2 games together (say V8 & Powerslide). People can then join whatever server they like. That will give people a choice of a straight racer and a slapstick muck around. We can try that for a couple of rounds and see how it goes.

What do you think?
