How the deuce does that happen? I'm happy and all, but was the VP of Epic just, you know, trolling the forums here like "I should totally give these guys money to play games they were going to find a way to play anyway"<br><br>Awesome news, but comepletely surreal. <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.ryanaaron.com/dtm/images/ava ... riable.gif" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--><br><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center">The world will not end in a blinding flash of light or virulent pestilence.

I am sure Ice or someone sent them an email. The PR for may game companies and other game related services often gladly sponsor lan parties and such. It does'nt take too much to get them to pimp their wares. <p><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/gryphav.gif/sigs.php"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.thzclan.com/gryphav.gif" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.thzclan.com/index.php?p=4"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.thzclan.com/cam/gryphon/thb_ccam.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="font-size:xx-small;"><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://site.gryphonllc.com/tcdb">Tribes Clan DB</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> - List your Tribes1/2 Clan, Guild, Fansite, League, or Script site<br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.gryphonllc.com">Gryphon, LLC</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> - My WebDev Adventures<br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.planettribes.com">PlanetTribes</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> - Adminstrator<br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.planetside-universe.com">PlanetSide Universe</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> - Code Monkey<br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.planetplanetside.com">PlanetSide Shuttle</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> - Newsie Extraordinaire<br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.alliedtribalforces.com">Allied Tribal Forces</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> - A PlanetSide alliance started by Tribesplayers</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></p><i></i>

I think we can safely assume that he's sent one of these emails off to Sierra. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

Oh...I talked to Kyle Bennett at HardOCP, but his birthday is that weekend. I have extended an offer of beer and wings on Friday night if he comes for the Friday night at Hooters. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

Send an e-mail off to Hooters to see if they will sponsor the event.
