Favorite Lan Memories

Post by Polak »

I've been to quite a few Lans and I feel like being Nostalgic.

Winter CPL 04

-Hearing the stories of Frozentruth Puddlecakes, and Warchyld??? When they went to a strip club in the Dallas area. I was 17 at the time so I didn't go :(
-Hitting moosh will a pillow and getting threaten to have the cops called on me
-Punching Bullet in the face (lightly, but I said I would do it)
-Sitting right by Prostar
-Josh Brown indirectly telling me I'm bad right in my face. "Oh you are from despise? Man that Polak kid can't do it on lan"
-Watching the CS finals
-Playing with duality when he went 0-16 on donnor and he actually naded us like 5 times before getting a kill. I love you sean
-Going to hooters with my team and cursing off the waitress. I was and still am a tool

Summer CPL 05
- Staying at Farva's house was a blast
- Only played one match because we didn't qualify for the fucking double elim bracket. Who ever set up the ranking system can go fuck themselves
- Pooping on the Euro kiddies but I didn't realize they didn't know RR1
- Prostar pooping himself, but I wasn't there for that
-Josh brown fighting deadbolt or whatever his name is dead something or idk
- Kellens streak live
- Doing adderal for the first time and not sleeping for three straight days
- Ghandi checking out my computer for cheats
- Playing wild buck hunter
- Telling Sparz he has a nice smile
- I'm not sure if I remember this correctly or not because i was fucked up. I remember being in some sort of hotel room party and I remember Kellen holding the check and two Asian girls with him. I could really be making this one up, not sure.

Summer WSVG 06
- I don't remember who it was with exactly and I could be confusing this with Summer CPL 05 but there was a bunch of us sitting in a cafe. And the guy was definitly asian who sad this Suntin Tin something I don't know, but Shaguar comes up to us and says "Hey guys, I don't know if you know who I am but I'm Shaguar, do any of you guys want to buy me an orange juice" And this asian kid without hesitation just says "bro we play dod" and laughter everywhere.
- Almost getting into a fight with Tragik, I think
- Seeing COL 1 screaming at the dod team at the time.
- Having to pay for our eximius team shirts from Eximius | brad whose a total dick and a terrible manager.
- Having people find out that we actually had to pay for our shirts = embarrassing.
- Having a hotel room party and some douche bag through something out the window. The security came in and corey's legs were under the bed so it seemed like someone was crushed other there. The security freaks out and then corey walked out of the bathroom with his stumps asking if there was a problem. They left right away after that, awesome.
- THIS IS PROBABLY THE BEST MEMORY OF ALL TIME and I KNOW WE RECORDED THIS FROM A DISTANCE. I took one of corey's legs and reported to the front desk of the hotel. "Hey, listen we had some people over at the room and it was a little crazy. After cleaning up, we found this leg. It has to belong to someone" After about 15-20 mins of waiting someone had corey on their shoulder as he hopped to the first desk asking if anyone found his leg. Seeing the front desks reaction to the whole situation was pure gold

First w2z lan 05?
-I met up with Heniken and disturbed who had a stripper or some kind of sluts up at his hotel room or something. I think Russian was there. I think you were there too duality, not too sure.
- I really can't remember much from this one

Second w2z lan
- a whole bunch of nerds over at my house playing beer pong including bewton and the marko brothers.
- chaos crying at the lan
- the lan lasting for fucking HOURS
- was there any after party at a hotel in north bergen NJ? I can't exactly recall
- seeing how much weight rgv lost. I'm still very happy for him

first x3o
- driving all the way to pick up the marko brothers, did a fucking road trip with motive (am i right?)
- sold a lot of bad stuff at that lan or at least I remember trying to
- falling a sleep at the lan and the douche bags took pictures of me sleeping on the couch. seriously the people from rockville are fags

second x3o
-I really don't remember much

Socal lan
-Telling our sponser of devery to go fuck themselves and their education is terrible
-boxing seven
-partaking in some festivates with Tenks
-being in a hot tub with ryanemo and a bunch of chicks from europe
-pizza


I know I'm missing a lot and I took no time with my grammar or writing because I'm leaving work in two seconds.


EDIT I FORGOT KY LAN
-Cain asking me to fight a cop right before he got arrested
-Epic finals with FD
-e`man and specops sitting next to eachother
-long as car ride with coolwhip and I think Joel? I'm not sure
-I herd Hackencruz was a dick with the a/c but I wasn't even in his room.

Watching tony compton knock a controller out of some 14 year old kid's hand playing super smash bros was a great moment at w2z.

Let's see...

-Road tripping with Tony Compton, Sik, and Christian Hatmaker. Could write a novel from this alone. Christian made a lot of trash baskets, Sik slept for 28 hours straight, seaN did not keep his eyes on the road for more than 3 seconds at a time, we saw Tiger Woods driving next to us, construction workers are lazy assholes, and some person with the license plate jane39 accompanied us on our journey for a while.
-"Is that Khoi wearing a corduroy jacket?" - upon first seeing Khoi waiting for us to pick him up at the corner flower shop. And then Khoi having to sit between Tony Compton's legs for 40 minutes, and refusing to stay down as we went through toll booths.
-The infamous coL|chaos LAN meltdown.
-I think I sarcastically threatened to kick Polak in the shins numerous times leading up to w2z, and when he first introduced himself he just held his shin out.
-Andrew (ao) has a smile that lights up a room.
-Kyle "lockdown" Brosnan's epic nacho plate. "Nachos are on me, guys," then the waitress brings out a plate with 8 chips. We all got one. And Christian Hatmaker's confusion between "being offered a Coke" and asking how he wanted his meal cooked.
-Stealth's 1911 avi shows the famous image of finding Khoi asleep with his hand in his pants, taken on the floor of our w2z hotel room.
-Playing against some of the best players (going against bleargh on harrington middle was fun...and johngale and Scorch and every other player on that team because everyone went middle).
-Denying Sean Kalas a handshake. Fuck that guy.

Forever butthurt from attempting to shake my hand and me not knowing who you are nor shaking it :p Or perhaps I did know and figured "fuck that kirk guy."

Lan moments?
- playing SoCAL 2? 3? (in irvine) w/ being pretty unknown, placing 2nd, and being asked by dicE to maybe play for them at cpl
- getting to really know the coL and x6 guys while they bootcamped, later leading to being recruited (pre-cpl)
- josh brown needing tonya to save him with a juice box (cpl)
- prostar pooping himself and passing out in kellen's bathroom (pre-wsvg)
- kellen breaking/badly spraining his hand right before (pre-wsvg)
- driving to the gaylord hotel from kellen's with it raining and our computer accessories/luggage in the back of a truck (wsvg)
- playing finals against bewton, moneyb, etc. dead tired while they're drugged up on adderall (w2z)
- corey leaning on the makeshift beer pong table at mogers' and making it crash to the floor along with himself (pre-ky)
- corey running off from mogers' and talking about cats over the phone as we're trying to find him (pre-ky)
- habib talking up a storm online and then staying as quiet as a mouse when confronted (ky)

dude when Payam and I arrived at the hotel that night to set up, this was the first thing I saw... cory's leg on the front desk. Literally. I watched the whole thing go down. PAyam, the TOG owner had no idea what was going on, I myself was trying so hard not to laugh...oh man..what a night tht was.


Polak if I remember correctly, you were telling the front desk you found the leg in your room and it must have belonged to the previous person who had the room. You were looking for a lost and found.. :lol:

I didn't attempt to shake your hand, bro. I don't know where that hand has been. It was probably up some dude's b-hole shortly prior.

I also remember propaganda questioning his sexuality as he was peering at me from across the room. He likes to downplay it and act like he wasn't considering going homer, but he was full homer that day.

LANing was outrageously awesome. I made a ton of what I'd consider life long friends and wish I had attended more.

Alex Kirk pretty much listed all of the good parts and a novel SHOULD be written about our adventure.

As for as the actual playing goes... against whatever team jaggon was on that lan, I had a pretty great 1st half on harrington.
Leading up to that LAN stealth and I were playing a lot of Silkroad(lol) and when I was playing DoD I wasn't ever on heavy. Thought it would have been fun to snipe, I was the utility glue for my makeshift pug team. We lost to 3h by like 4 points (fluxxx's fault) and had we won that match it would have been quite the surprise to have advanced.

Oh, I remember jaggon and I exchanging laughs at nude pictures of girls on our cell phones.


It was all a lot of hothothothot fun.
I wish I had attended more LANs and wished I introduced myself more to people.

LMAO alex fitzmyer had this video for a very long time. mr. newton wanted it for a movie but we couldn't get our hands on it. within about 12 hours of this same incident, there was another one which scott gordon can elaborate on in more detail but basically Bert from revamped had apparently told scott online that he had plotted to steal my legs at the lan. the first night i was drinking with bert and nick and me and polak had no place to stay that night so nick let me sleep in the bathtub in his room LOL now, scott wasn't there yet. and bert asks me if he could borrow my legs for something. he placed them directly in front of the door immediately prior to scott's arrival apparently, and scott walked in the room and was in awe thinking that bert had successfully stolen my legs. then he walked into the bathroom to take a piss and saw me out cold in the bath tub, legs off, and proceeded to die laughing. absolutely two of my favorite lan memories right here and they're from the first one i attended which made it all the more awesome

" Having a hotel room party and some douche bag through something out the window. The security came in and corey's legs were under the bed so it seemed like someone was crushed other there. The security freaks out and then corey walked out of the bathroom with his stumps asking if there was a problem. They left right away after that, awesome."
^^that one was funny too. im noticing the common theme here, the humor of corey marko is often, if not always, derived from the power of the legs. I'M A NOVELTY ITEM. lmao

god after all those listed for me in advance it'll be tough to come up with much but here it goes-

-WSVG, my first lan, was all fuckin awesome getting to meet a bunch of guys from online, not to mention experience baloo play on lan which was probably one of the greatest things ive ever seen. kid was unreal. other than the moments already documented in prior posts, one of my favorite ones was the first night; I was in the process of making "the triple threat movie"
which was bewton, money-b and shifty powers. so the first night we had a film production smoking session kind of deal, basically i just got to smoke with those 3 guys, got super high and we laughed a lot and then rob took my leg to the front desk and hilarity ensued. as far as the actual playing of this lan, it was not great for me as the thumb trackball went out with a whisper and i moved on to normal mice and significantly better dod skill (thank you baloo for threatening to never play on a team with me again if i didnt start using a normal mouse lmao)

-x3o lan, this one was fuckin weird but one of my favorite memories was actually 24 hours before the lan at the marko residence, site of many interesting dod player memories, when me and chuck 'motive' d'angelo got super fucked up and talked about dod and sniping for roughly 7 hours, before he then prepared himself a vegan breakfast while having to watch me ryan and polak eat home made chicken wings for breakfast :/ poor chuck.
at the lan itself, meeting the jetty guys was awesome, as they went on to be some of my best internet bros and team mates, plus the cevo season leading up to this lan brought a looot of speculation from guys that i was "no scope aimbotting" as it was so eloquently put, or no spreading (didnt even know what that was at the time) so going to the lan, sniping, and performing extremely well and getting the lan stamp of approval from all my former critics was super fun. plus talking to dan schey about sniping/getting to snipe against him twice on lan was really cool for me since I'm a giant nerd! we got second place.....i wouldn't settle for second place again ;]

-w2z lan, getting to play with some of my favorite dod players of all time, shifty money b bewtron, greg's melt down, tilljim's ball riding, meeting the thunder guys for the first time who i then played with for almost 6 years, seeing that jared is in fact a person and not a robot, watching john simpson walk, meeting ao and kirk and christian hatmaker (our nude photo comparison convo was the kind of stuff legends are made of, amirightchristian?) , tony compton, so many new faces that weren't at the 2 previous lans i had attended. and most of all, yeah, most of allllll, we went undefeated and i got my first lan ring along with two very successful lan players in shifty and bewton who hadn't won it all yet so that was awesome.

-KY lan, playing with thunder/FD on lan was a fuckin experience. we were fresh off an undefeated season, we were a well oiled machine with a couple solid rivalries with noluck, tap and ukz (we didn't get to play noluck but holy fuck iorio and jackson were fucking amazing on lan) seeing some big time online stars show up to the lan, even if i dont think HE played very well (avatar) the cain incident, the nick koehler vs specops feud that ended with nick and grant being sat next to eachother for the first match of the tourney, which we played vs one another LMAO nick in a fuckin sleeveless shirt and grant just cringing every time he kills nick, especially when he and ryan did the spawn boost on harrington and kept shooting nick in spawn lmao then of course, the finals was amazing. uKz took us down in the first match on harrington with a really well worked out strategy, forcing a second match on our best map rr2, which we won relatively handily but not without drama when i had to break a mid cap to keep us in the lead with a really stupid crouch hop sniper shot from ticket on a prone prefiring habib (see LaNGoN1) and we won! and that was awesome of course, just the whole lan with tox, ryan, grant, sean kalas, john gale, and our little entourage from the interweb like brad murdock who was our manager essentially, coolwhip, etc. tough to name everyone but that lan was amazing. OOOHHH I REMEMBER SOMETHING ELSE. one night our team plus a couple other guys were getting drunk in one of the FD rooms, we were watching enemy at the gates and the scene where rachel weisz gets fucked by vasiili zaitsev like in the butt came on, khoi was like "yo i dont think i can watch this, my parents never let me watch this part, eh fuck it ill watch it anyways" lmao we were all dying, so funny, khoi has been many of my favorite lan memories hahaha

-Socal 6- this may have been the most interesting of them all. brittany was amazing in paying for my trip and allowing me to put together a team for the lan, only requirements being that her and travis johnston be on the team, so i got kyran, menace, and iorio and we practiced hard. it was my first trip to cali, which i had wanted to do for my whole life and was noooot disappointed. the day before actually going to cali i spent a day/night with connor in arizona and got super high and ate chipotle for the first time and we saw the movie four christmases i think, super high, just awesome all around. then the trip to san diego with menace kyran and gaul was so much fucking fun those guys are the absolute best, i loved getting to hang out with them, they were one of the main reasons i still want to move out there to this day. (plus zack's sister...mmmmm jaymie) there was the white russian of pwn which menace kyran gaul and i just missed. there was menace's dolphin kick, me and zack arguing over the best thing to do as a kar in apts on rr2 with the front spawn (i won the argument of course) ummm getting insanely high with tilljim, menace, connor, rng, and travis, dipping his blunts in THC honey then me curling up in a ball with my legs off on the hotel balcony bc i was toooo high. me and khoi standing side by side with my legs off and me being taller LOL. then of course, us going undefeated and winning the lan making brittany's investment 100% worthwhile and of course making the whole trip all the more fun cus who wants to lose when they fly across the country to play a video game? <3 ron, bryan, scott, dan, greg, and eric g aka the washed^ guys who we had to beat twice which was fuckin intense, even though a few of them hadnt hardly touched dod in a while they were still fuckin outstanding. getting to have actual convos with guys like jason, vazzanna, johnny, jdub, bosley, all of whom i had attended lans with before but never really spent any considerable time with until then. just an amazing trip all around and i want to go back to san diego forever and ever, its the best place in the USA

i probably forgot so much stuff, dod lans are absolutely amazing in every facet. anyone who hasnt attended one and is thinking about going to vegas but kinda straddling the fence about it, just read these posts and i can assure you that you will be certain in your choice to go.

Alex Kirk pretty much listed all of the good parts and a novel SHOULD be written about our adventure.

As for as the actual playing goes against whatever team jaggon was on that lan, I had a pretty great 1st half on harrington.
Leading up to that LAN stealth and I were playing a lot of Silkroad(lol) and when I was playing DoD I wasn't ever on heavy. Thought it would have been fun to snipe, I was the utility glue for my makeshift pug team. We lost to 3h by like 4 points (fluxxx's fault) and had we won that match it would have been quite the surprise to have advanced.

Oh, I remember jaggon and I exchanging laughs at nude pictures of girls on our cell phones.


It was all a lot of hothothothot fun.

Just talked to Tony and Sik in Vent a few days ago for the first time in maybe two years. I'll go ahead and mark them down as "in" for a reunion road trip for Vegas LAN in 2014.
It might be a bit more difficult fit, but I'll volunteer to sit between tony's legs. Quite sad I missed that trip.

Khoi's obviously got dibs, but without Sean we'll have a spare seat. We have a rigorous application process with many applicants. I'll forward you the pdf, just get that send back asap along with parental consent and we'll get the process started.

I would legitimately go to Vegas LAN just for the road trip.

I'm realizing how much awesome shit I missed out on. Still on the fence about the Vegas thing, but this thread is making lean towards going.

I dunno, aren't you a little afraid of being raped by weirdos? That's part of whats holding me back. There's been a lot of homo on the forums lately, so much that I'm starting to question my own sexuality. If I get raped, I'd rather it be by non-weirdos.
