I'm not giving up TF2, it's major fun with the new Arena mode in the Heavy update, but I did sign up for some Warhammer Online.

Can you believe the client download is 10GB!

And what's up with the fileplanet download manager as the delivery mechanism...

Basking in the glow of nerdom.  Signed up an registered for two Portland local area network (PDXLAN) gaming events.

It's a chance to show off your desktop hotrod, rub elbows with fellow gamers, and get a chance to win some nice stuff (the previous PDXLAN  had $130,000 in prizes) due to local sponsors like Intel.

The more the merrier, here's my seat selection if you are interested in coming.

PDXLAN 12.5 Nov 21-23 , 2008		PDXLAN 13 Jan16-19, 2009

Matt, and old friend from my previous job, is sitting next to me.

Hopefully there's some good TF2 tournament action going down.

Later.

I'm now at table 17, seat 17K for PDXLAN 13.  Someone asked us to move so he could sit next to his friend... and hold hands.
