Since the only thing that affects me is Evo weekend, how does the Kami place 
look for extended stays – more than 24hrs?

I'm also leaning towards Kamimodo. In addition to the reasons you posted, I 
really used to enjoy session at Geco while it lasted, and we could get a 
similar vibe at Kamimodo.
Hopefully we can get a decent rate, since like you said, we'll be using our own 
equipment.

All we really need is the space, internet usage, and maybe one of their PCs 
would be nice.

Hi all

Some of you already know my feelings on this matter, so I'm just sharing this 
with those who don't.

In light of recent 'developments' at the GamerNET house, I think it's time for 
us to consider relocating.

We've had a good run there, but things are changing - and not necessarily for 
the better, in my opinion.

I don't mind change. If it is good, or beneficial in some way, I'm all for it. 
Right now, it seems like these changes are benefiting an individual and not a 
collective.

So let me get right to the 'meat and potatoes' of what this is all about. We 
get there on Saturday and start setting up. There's a car parked outside at 
Jeeva's house that most of the regulars have already come to associate with 
'quiet time'. Now, this 'quiet time' I'm referring to is when IT training has 
been scheduled at Jeeva's house. During the training period, we are promptly 
told to shut the fuck up until such time as training has been concluded.

I understand that Jeeva's house is a registered training institution. I 
understand that he has to make ends meet and that this is just another source 
of income. What I don't like is that other people who pay to be there get the 
shaft because of how he feels he should conduct business. This is gripe number 
one.

Gripe number two was when I wanted to set up the Challonge brackets for the 
standard Sat tourney, only to realise that the internet connection wasn't 
working (ethernet link to Jeeva's network). Not only that, but the wireless 
details had also changed. Again, not typically something that one would feel 
the need to complain about, provided that shit gets properly communicated.

Which brings me to gripe number three; a distinct lack of communication these 
days. Jeeva's just making changes without informing anyone. Maybe we're just 
not 'important' enough to inform. Or perhaps, changes like these don't warrant 
explanation, as far as he's concerned. It's fine for him to send me an sms on 
any given Saturday to inform me that 'the guys are making too much noise, can 
they please keep it down between 12pm and 1pm', but he can't even communicate 
something as simple as 'hi guys, I had to change the internet/network settings 
to accommodate the students/training personnel, so if you want to use the 
internet, please use these new credentials'. Shit like this pisses me off.

I'm starting to feel like we've overstayed our welcome and that Jeeva is 
trying, in a very subtle, manner, to get us to leave. It's an assumption on my 
part, I'll admit - but if someone isn't setting the record straight and 
actually communicating this shit, then assumptions are all I have.

So here's what I'm looking to do. I'll be chatting to Zaid this week about 
sessioning at Kamimodo and ask him if it would be possible for us to perhaps 
get a discount on the monthly rate, seeing as how we'd be bringing our own 
consoles and screens.

What I would like is to hear from everyone before we commit to anything. I'd 
like to hear your thoughts on the matter. How do you feel about the way things 
are at the GamerNET house currently? Do you feel there's some merit to what I'm 
saying? Would you prefer that we try to make the most of a slightly unpleasant 
situation or consider alternatives? Please feel free to voice your opinions.

rush and the dmg is reduced to 500%.
