Christchurch Treehouse of Awesome-Where everyone knows your name

[Lias]

Sooooo are Woohoo and Bitchi still floating around?

They haven't come out of the woodwork yet.

Part of it is most people have no idea that ON3 morphed into GetSome.. the sudden death of ON3, and the head's continued lack of using the words ON3 Network in any way shape or form, including to tell people that what was icoonz/clearnet/gayarena/dontslagoffdeezillasville/whateverthefuck/ON3 is now GetSome, makes me speculate that the person who owns the trademarks for ON3 either threatened or initiated legal action against the heads.
It's been documented before, but for the record:

The owner of the trademark is Xlan Limited as per IPONZ
http://www.iponz.govt.nz/app/Extra/IP/Mutual/Browse.aspx?sid=635434478587953957
https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?resid=83A948691340AB54!5657&ithint=file%2c.pdf&app=WordPdf&authkey=!AG1A5OsDKzV4zls

The owner of Xlan Limited is Paul Kao
http://www.business.govt.nz/companies/app/ui/pages/companies/1496449

The director and general manager of Playtech is.... drum roll please.. Paul Kao
http://www.business.govt.nz/companies/app/ui/pages/companies/1947625
http://www.nbr.co.nz/article/trade-me-seller-pays-microsoft-15000-damages-over-pirated-software-ck-148205

That Paul Kao of Playtech owns the trademarks is beyond dispute, but anything else beyond that falls into opinion, hearsay and speculation. It's my hypothesis that the most likely reason many of the old crew are not around, is because they don't know we're the same community of freaks wierdos and misfits, and they don't know that because Paul Kao is in my not so humble opinion a complete cunt.

Maybe if we mention the name on3network enough, when someone goggles on3network , then Getsome, previously known as on3network , will come up as one of the results in a Google search for on3network .

Maybe it's because they come here and discover how bad this server is.

It's the worst I've ever seen.

Berg ran a better looking forum that was easier to use than this.

And he did it using his spare change while learning to fly.

Just googled "squirting the cat gif". At work.

I think we need to talk about on3network in a manner that google thinks we're actually being constructive.

Repeatedly spamming 'on3network' will push us to the bottom of the heap.

The computer games at on3 network was really great, I really enjoy playing Call of Duty and DOTA 2.

World of Warcraft was never really that great but I think Get Some is much better than on3network.

edit:

It just occurred to me that we need to discuss Kevin Summersby, we're 6th on google now, lagging behind his facebook profile too.

[Pyromanik]

I think it has more to do with the fact that most people grew the fuck up.
Sadly.

Side effect being that games aren't the centric point of lifestyle/sparetime/timekillers anymore.
Got shit to do.

I do.

Played Hitman (1: Codename 47) recently... for a few missions. That is about the extent of my gaming these days.

[Retardobot]

lol Paul Kao.

Haven't bought from Playtech in a long time but I'll be CL'ing in the future.

The guy is mentally ill.

Should probably let that one go.

I agree with Pyro, I think the previous "crew" have progressed a bit and the demise of the popular games we all cherished in to shitty ongoing remakes of shit means we're all doing other things. I play Hearthstone, Ingress (if you call it playing Ingress), and the odd FPS, but most of my time is spent trying to help the gaming industry more. From this perspective, once this LAN is done, I'll be looking to help with other LANs and make sure Get Some has article, podcast and video type stuff happening. I enjoy that side of things more than the liaising with industry people who are essentially hamstrung by virtue of the fact the Oceanic or Asia Pacific region is not worthy enough from a profitability perspective for money to come to gaming events, tournaments or other related activity in NZ. I don't say this in a negative or pessimistic way, I say this from over 8 years experience of dealing with and observing industry people through the period of growth of eSport as we have just seen.

I could rant for ages, but ultimately, myself and the 4 other dudes who bring this site and other related stuff to you do this out of passion and no income whatsoever for it. We want it to be the best it can be, and we want to provide facility for gamers - it may not be for you lot who regularly contribute to this thread, but it's you lot who I have on Facebook, and indeed call friends through out like mindedness. This LAN I look forward to as a catch up of all you fuckers. And if anyone doesn't show, I'll be mad. Like th3fairy mad. And she gets mad. So I'll be mad.

Pay for me to fly up and i'll go

Can we start a fund to get Codex big gaylord rectum to the party?

[Xenolightning]

Should make it as difficult as possible :>

I will pay for him to get from CHCH to Blenheim.

[Bounty Hunter]

Uninstalled a bunch of games, inc BF4.

Was spending waaaaay too much time playing and not enough doing study/getting shit done so chopped it.

It's only 4 months till I'm finished with uni and can spend my time as I please.

[Pyromanik]

I live out of a netbook now, so big time gaming is pretty much a no no. But that's ok because modern games are bollocks as mentioned.
I can play some indy things, and that's ok. Although gotta be carfeful with purchases.

Mostly I don't fuck around pseudo investing in nostalgia. I go right to the source and play old games. Because netbook, and actually fun, and stuff.
Hitman, Commandos, Quake, sim city 2000, etc.
Time allowing.

But can even play Banished, so that's a bonus. Although the time factor... pretty much leaves that on the wayside.

I'm amazed at how much I've managed to achieve in just the last few days.

It's incredible what you achieve if all you do is eat/sleep/work/poop.

OpenGL 4 assignment on the run at the moment.

Oh there's a 4 now?

I want to come, but I can't afford it, and even if I could I don't think I could get shit organized in the next 45 days.
