Second Operation Lan Party

The 2nd Operation LAN was held on July 12 in Houston, Texas. The attendance was about 170 people, with about 50% increase in total players from the first show. Much of the power issue was resolved. The games were started approximately on time; but because of the increased attendance (13 teams vs. previous 6 teams), the DFI Counter Strike tournament was not finished until 4:30am. A total of more than $4200 prizes were given out to the winners (vs. $3200 last time), including more than $1000 worth of products through raffles. The Antec Case Mod Contest attracted some serious contestants. We expanded to reward three top winners from five finalists. We decided to give prizes also to the second team of the DFI Counter Strike Tournament. The entire night had 18 individual winners besides raffle winners.

Here are the winners:

Zalman Street Fighter Showdown

1st, Toefr, Thang Cao
2nd, Sungjin, Sunjin Park

Thermaltake Command & Conquer Generals

Canceled due to lack of participants. The prizes were dispursed to the case mod contest and the Counter Strike tournament.

Maxtor Battlefield 1942

1st, Arc Angel, Matt Gill
2nd, say No to War, Neal Richards
3rd, Sercus Addict, Alex Oeorq

Antec Case Mod Contest

1st, Bojan Eclez, Laptop inside a water-cooled PC
2nd, Ian Pellman, Psycho Cabbage’s Chameleon
3rd, Neal Richards, Refrigerated, Liquid Chilled Cube

DFI Counter Strike Tournament

1st, Team TOG, SLiver (Michael Ngueyen), Warden (Matt Oiekens), Nark (Robert Ramghur), Mr. Cal O (Justin Rtuh), and Hung (Hung Le). (Note: although the same team won, this team has several different players from the last TOG. The competition is much more intensive than the last one).

2nd, Team NOL, Scorion (David Inster), Rawool (Paul Genealoz), Tylelc (Tylel Cooper), McSpadden (Ian McSpadden), Bojangles (Sam Eckhardt).

(Winners: If I spelled your name wrong, please correct me by sending an email to info @ directron.com)

Pictures of this event have been published here.

Next Operation LAN is scheduled for August 16. We expect to make some adjustments and improvements such as pre online registration, early start, and more playtime. Stay tuned.
