Hi Guys,

First of all, thank you to the forum admins for allowing me to post the advertisement here.

I’m the Event Manager for epic.LAN and we’ve been running casual LAN events for about 2 years as epic and previously you may remember some of us from the CentralanUK/CLUK series of events. So all in all we have around 7 years of experience running LANs both for casual and competitive gaming.

After spending some time rebuilding our events, we’ve decided to reintroduce competitive gaming to our LANs and as a large proportion of our community are already TF2 players, it seemed that the natural game of choice for our cash prize-winning launch tournament would be TF2.

Our first competitive event will be taking place in February 2011, so we have plenty of time to prepare and get everything absolutely right and we’ll have plenty more details about the event for you before that time. But the reason for posting here now is to advertise some vacancies to join our LAN admin team for the Team Fortress 2 tournament.

As I’ve already said, we want to do everything right from the outset, and one of the keys to that is ensuring that we have a knowledgeable and experienced admin team to not only run the tournament on the day, but to be a part of the design of that tournament from scratch. So this is where you guys come in!

We’re looking for a TF2 Lead Admin and at least 1 Game Admin, depending on the interest in the tournament there may be more positions. But we need someone who knows their stuff to be a part of the great team we already have at epic.LAN.

If this sounds interesting to you, or you would like further details, in the first place take a look at the news post about the positions on our site. Then feel free to contact us to apply or to ask more questions.

You can also find us in Quakenet IRC #epic.LAN

Thanks for taking the time to read and we look forward to speaking to some of you further.

Just incorporate your epicLANs with ETF2L. win/win.

Yeah official ETF2L would be a major boost :)

Do you mean to say.. TF2 isn’t dead?

Quoted from randa

Is it gonna be held in the uk ?

No, its held on a boat in the middle of the pacific.

Yeah will add you on Steam when I get home.

There is room to expand if things are successful in the current venue, but in sensible jumps! We’ve seen far too many initiatives fail because they’ve attempted a bajillion player LAN without the planning and experience, so we plan to start carefully and make sure we give the community something stable for the future.

Definitely worth going for this if you’re interested. Great bunch of guys and very cool event.

Having spoken with Winbar its deffinately a very solid project, with loads of plus points for the TF2 community including a very decent prize pot amougst other things! watch this space peeps.
