This is relatively close for me as well, strongly considering this.

If I can get a ride from Van Wert i'm in. I am not driving 10 hours.

Hopefully it will work out.

Hey guys! Just under 2 weeks untill the LAN and I just wanted to give an update. We recently added a Counter Strike: Global Offensive Tournament Sponsored by Club Conflict in cooperation with Valve! Everyone that enters the tournament will receive a beta key for CS:GO. In other news we now have over $9000 in prizes to give out at Iron Storm XIII. This is shaping up to be out best party ever so make sure you don't miss it!
