Guys,
As you all should know by now, Euro is under new management.
We have done some stuff to the place that we hope the membership will appreciate.
1) New GAMES. That's right. Prince of Persia the Sands of Time, Spell Force, Unreal 2004, RC Racers, Yu-Gi-Oh, Soul Calibur 2, Tekken 4, Grand Theft Auto Vice City, Painkiller, Sacred, Desert Combat 0.7 and more. (We are the gamers association after all, what else did you expect?)
2) New Hard Ware! What would new games be if you did not have the right power under the hood to run them? 512MB of RAM, 2100+ processors and Blisteringly fast Geforce 4 TI 4200 cards that make the rest of our 440 MX fleet look like they were run over by Reaper and Akeel. (At a combined muscle mass of about 4000lbs you don't want to be run over by Reaper and Akeel)
3) DSL!! Yes, no more satellite driven, high latency cable connection for us. We have bitten the bullet and switched over to DSL. (Especially critical for our matches again Jamaica and the rest of the world!)
4) New CyberCafe Pro Client and Server.
This is the lastest in Cafe Management software with tons of cool features for us and lower operating overhead for you. This means less resources go into monitoring the machine and more resources go into giving you higher frame rates in games.
5) Console / Anime / Movie TV.
We have placed a dedicated PC with a TV card connected to a Playstation 2 in one of the gaming rooms. Great for watching games on the big screen, anime, movies and most of all, RECORDING WHEN I BEAT IMPERIAL X to a an mpg file for the world to see. MUHAHAHAHA (Bob, SHUT UP)
A second TV is provided as well for those wanting to bring their own console.
6) Well stocked fridge. Not that this was much of a problem before, but we are trying to keep the fridge up to date with the latest in gaming accessories. Namely Mountain Dew!!
7) Cup Ramen!!! Naruto fans rejoice. Now you too can eat Ramen and work on Chakra control right within the hallow halls of Euro.
Promotions, Promotions, Promotions. We are giving away stuff....reallly reallly cool stuff. All you need to do to get in on this action is sweat @ euro. It's that simple....we like simple.
9) Tournament scheduling software. No more messy hard to read paper sheets with chicken scratches. We have firmed up the tournament scheduling process using some kick ass software. Random seeding iwmc.
10) Girls. What would GATT men be without GATT girls? In a word...GAY. To stemmy this scary trend, we have been leaving trails of cosmetic products outside leading into the GL to encourage some measure of female presence. So far it has been working. Thank you Penny Wise.
11) Mug Shots. Every GATT member that walks in our doors get their mug shot taken for inclusion in sweat reports, "The Most Wanted" post on the Euro bulletin board and submission to the "FBI 10 Deadliest Men" list.
12) New Staff.
A star studded team made up mainly of our own people. GATT members true and true. Here to serve the gamedom as best we can.
13) New opening hours.
8AM - 10PM. EVERY DAY. (Yes, even on Sunday, yes even on carnival monday/tuesday) You know the drill. Suhuhuweat!!!!!!!!
14) Functional Printers. From the speedy black and white laser, to the slow but colorful HP inkjet. We got you covered. We've also fixed up our auto cutting receipt printer so that the timecodes print faster and is easier to read. You know you don't wanna be standing around waiting for your timecode when there is good gaming to be had.
15) ART. IYMC. The decor has gone game. Shizz has made use of his talants (and those printers mentioned before) to give some added decor and personality to the machines. As a gamer, you'll feel right @ home.
16) Suhuweat!!! Every weekend, sweat action guaranteed. Tournaments will be running red. Expect all your favourite games to make the list. Ask for them. People who make the most noise will be heard!
17) Home of Caribbean Gamers Association. Yes folks, we are taking you international. The bachanal has already begun. Tired of killin your own brethren? Let's take the beatings overseas. First stop, the caribbean, next...the WORLD. (Be sure to go and raise some hell on the GAJ forum, you can find it here....
http://www.carigamers.com18) Sweat for FREE!! That's right. We are not just here to take your money. We aim to give some of it back, I said some, not all of it....give me back that money RB....
As I was saying, on Sunday....BYOC....is FREE. Walk with your computer and up to 8 people can hook up to the network and get their game on without paying a red cent...or a brown cent for that matter.
19) Got Clan? Got Game? Sweat Free! Bring 8 of your members and you get 1 guy playing for free. A clan account. Unlimited time. Don't abuse it....or you'll lose it. You know how we Trinis are. We like free.
20) DVD Blazing services. Got a ton of stuff you need backed up from your hard drive. Too big to fit on a CD? Too lazy too shuffle through 8-9 pengos? We have the solution. An External USB2 DVD Burner. It's yours to use on BYOC/ Anime Sunday for a modest fee of $10 a burn. (Can life get any sweeter you must be saying, lol)
(well it does)
21) Anime Sunday! Sit down and take in the latest anime episodes and movies with your crew on every other sunday. Walk with your AMVs, clips, pop corn, etc....actually, don't walk with the pop corn...buy it from us. lol
That's it.
It's all good...it's all game.
A lot of changes, which we think the membership will appreciate. Other GLs, I hope will follow our lead and help increase the level of gameage and digital entertainment facilities on the island and the caribbean as a whole.
Got a cool idea? Something we missed? Suggestions? Rest it on our chest it. Our door is always open. Send an email, call, fax, smoke signal, carrier pigeon, etc...
