[Photos++]Boston LAN (tl.net)

Just got back from the Boston, MA LAN! It was a lot of fun. I wish more people had shown up, but hopefully more will next time.

In total iirc 8 people showed up.

Edit: For clarification (in case you couldn't tell), the captions are for the image BELOW the caption.

Here's slog and saranghae

Here's my friend TheAfterEffect

This is... shit I can't remember your name/id SORRY IM TERRIBLE WITH NAMES /wrists

Here's LastShadow (left) vs -orb- (right)

Here's a front shot of me (-orb-)

Here's a shot of LastShadow

Another of last shadow

Here's last shadow's screen

Dark partial group shot clustered around Jamel's computer (sorry my camera sucks)

Here's Keeper-Auhsoj

Here's another front shot of Keeper-Auhsoj (aka Yoshiva)

From the back I can't tell who this is but it looks like it's probably slog

Slog's friend that I can't remember his name

From left to right: LastShadow, Slog's friend, Slog

Another LastShadow shot

TheAfterEffect front shot while he's playing

SaRangHae chillaxin

TheAfterEffect on the left preparing for a game, SaRangHae on right playing in a game

Same two people reversed

zomg 3 people playing counter strike next to each other (2 afk lol). These guys are prolly like cal-o noobs, i could totally beat them 3v1 with no monitor or mouse or keyboard or computer

same two guys again, this time in game i believe

Keeper-Auhsoj

slog

Slog

SLOG

LastShadow

LastShadow (offrace is for nubs amirite)

Group Shot hooray! 2 people already left when we took this shot though

Surprisingly, despite all the bad stuff I had heard about him, Last Shadow actually seemed pretty chill. I had heard so much stuff about him being ridiculously egotistical on the point of narcissism, but he didn't really bring up anything brag-wise, and even when I asked him about stuff he didn't overdo it (wasn't modest either but w/e

). He definitely had skills. I beat him in one game (lost 2-1 in the bo3), but I was the only one to take a single game off him in the whole tourney -_-;;

Everyone was chill and really cool. Overall it was a ton of fun, and I hope more people come next time

Yeah actually LastShadow played random for a number of matches, and so did SaRangHae. TheAfterEffect was terran, and everyone else was protoss

orly?

Because I don't see Chill anywhere.

Cool LAN though, my school just recently had one with about 12 people and it was pretty sweet.
We should just start a teamliquid cult and take over a small town, turn the community centre or school gym into a giant LAN room

Lol. I think if chill were there last shadow would have had the shit beat out of him.

I understand now why lastshadow was such an idiot/etc.... I asked him his age and he said 16.... so if he's 16 now, back when he did all that stupid shit he was younger. Obv not a good excuse, but kids that age are constantly known for cheating/etc in games. T_T

Am I the only one who's never heard of lastshadow before?

Anyway, looked like you guys had fun. About what ICCup level was everyone?

it should surprise no one that someone acts different in real life than he does online

and lastshadow was known for rigging maps to give him the advantage (and he'd still lose to idra)

LastShadow is B+ currently, TheAfterEffect is about C, max C+ iirc, I'm C-, and everyone else was somewhere between D and C

If he practiced, for sure, but he was pretty out of practice at this tournament. He got eliminated pretty early
