i have a very narrow attention span, yes seriously, i do have a problem with being able to focus on multiple things when my attention is focused on one particular thing. sometimes i even get to the point where it takes a very large event just to get my attention away from the first time.
one time it got to the point, i was reading a very good book at my parents place.....my father was alittle tipsy-topsy on bacardi....and was fooling with the shotgun in the closet........
he had a Accidental Discharge............ i never heard it! and he was less than 20 feet away from me in the other room.
when i have things to do and i get focused on one thing.........
or searching through the empty wine bottles for that last quarter hit of backwashed alcohol. Iâ??m so fortunate to have a recycling container close to my apartment building. You should try it sometime Andrew.
Wow... So did we pretty much decide this was out of the question? I'd be all over it. $50? $100? As long as I can get a room cheap I'd be there. I've got a reliable ride, too, so there'd be no doubt I'd be there (probably even be up for a road-trip type occurrence if I had a few weeks notice). I haven't played but for 2 days since the last LAN (August 13th-15th last year). Even though, I'm sure I could come to the LAN and still play as suckily as I did last year.
I think its too late given that people need to know when the event takes place in advance because of vacation/work. At this point I think we should plan for winter break. Yea its the holiday season but im sure some of us want to get away from nutty relatives.
Lets shoot some dates. I think the weekend after New Years. Before the holidays it will always be hectic so its not a good idea, same goes for in between Christmas and New Years. I know that I said I would find a venue but I never had much time while balancing 2 jobs and college. It would be nice if other people from the Chicagoland community would help out and just find us a cheap place rather than relying on someone else to do the job.
