one of my great regrets (Of a great many, I'l concede) is that I never had the opportunity to attend a lan party in my younger days.. In these days of the photo.

I have always looked at this picture with a mixture of jealousy and admiration.

Providing my weekend LAN party with the Warcraft 3 beta was the highlight of my early nerd career

Most of the guys i played with are dead now.

My friend, I am so, so sorry to hear this. I choked up reading it, I cannot imagine living it. If you want to share stories about them I would love to hear them.

My last LAN Partay was in 2016, that one weekend where Overwatch wat F2P, and we wanted to play Dota but had a party of 6. It was fantastic

Even if he was floating up in the sky in the most comfortable high tech invisible fluff pillow levitator, just being 3f/1m higher then everyone else will already feel quite a bit warmer. Maybe this is that one guy in your group that never wears socks and is always hot.

so I recalled hearing about some kid who watched the lion king and wrote about wanting to 'become lion king'. Part of the discussion where I heard about it was questioning if he meant becoming the movie or one of the lions.

Anyway, he wrote about having the movie buried with him, and maybe killed himself. I'm fuzzy on that part and never found it again to verify.

And just like that....I'm planning a LAN party for my birthday. Done. It's been close to 7 years but I want one.
