A massive thank you to Stewie (Chula Vista owner) for allowing the tournament to be held at his facility, and general props all around to everyone who was there and played.
The Syracuse, NY center has expressed early interest in hosting the 2011 US Nats. More information on that when I get it.
In addition to the “Laserforce” feed that automatically updates on this website, Atlantis laser tag has also set up an in-house feed as well. Follow both “Laserforce” and “SM5tournament” on twitter to get your up to the minute updates.
Also, Atlantis is working on getting the scoreboard for the tournament games to stream live over the internet. Failing that, the games will be uploaded to youtube at a later time.
*EDIT* EVEN MORE IMPORTANT – http://www.ustream.tv/channel/atlantis-scoreboard – live feed of the score monitor. Very cool.
Another small update – go here to download your very own copy of the original LFAnalysis program to keep track of your members night stats.
I’ve used this program since it was released in 2002 to track everything from members nights to tournaments – it definitely makes stat collecting a much easier task.
There’s a known bug with the tournament module – it doesn’t work. It’ll let you generate a schedule, but if you try to actually do anything with it [i.e. actually enter games], it’ll give you a program-crashing “null” error. Just FYI.
No, no it really is.
This years US Nats has the distinction of being the largest tournament we’ve ever had in this hemisphere in terms of total sites being represented (8 different sites making up 6 teams). It also marks the 3rd time that the southern hemisphere will be represented at a US nationals – the 1st time with a full 6 person team [2002 had 3 southern hemisphere players, 2004 had 5]. Given the best the northern hemisphere has ever done as far as representation in the southern hemisphere was 2 people in 2001, we really are due to repay the favor with some sort of more complete team.
Best of luck to all.
Another huge thank you to Liro who installed the new version of WordPress and updated the theming slightly.
Definitely much win.
Hard to believe that in roughly 6 weeks US nats will be upon us, and roughly 2 weeks after that AU/NZ nats. Where does the time go?
Well, ok – I know in my case the answer to that question is “work”, “school” and “family” (not necessarily in that order).
In other news, I FINALLY got the games list fully moved over. Why’d it take so long? See the above reason.
Looking forward to seeing everyone in Chula Vista – should be a good time.
It’s not so much a change as a I finally got around to updating the shielding rule to what it was actually changed to before last AU/NZ nats.
Please go here to see the update. It essentially moves part C of the rule (which was the show a shoulder part) into part A. It’s not functionally different than before for the US version – for the AU/NZ version it added referencing to the chest sensor since AU/NZ does not consider the front of the gun to be a visible hit zone due to IR issues.
I know for some of you in the southern hemisphere the day has already passed, but still
