QotL 2020 Location Voting

The time has come to discuss QotL houses and vote for a location. All properties are available for our target week of July 26-Aug 01.

Atlanta GA Duplex

This house is two single units put together. We’d have to use one of the living rooms for the LAN. It’s not ideal space but the price is the lowest and it has good download speeds at 600 down / 10 up.

Atlanta GA Luxurious

For only $25 more this house is more comfortable and features Xfinity internet at 200Mbps. The basement area should provide for a comfortable LAN. Further away from OH and NC than the next two houses though.

Washington DC House

Same price as the bigger ATL house and internet speed confirmed with a speedtest at 70 down / 70 up. Easy access to Wash DC. Least travel from OH and NC but no firearms I believe? Has ideal Party Hall space.

Gatlinburg Cabin

Most expensive option but in the familiar area of Gatlinburg which is centrally located for most people. Claims “Spectrum Wifi” but don’t know the speed. Judging from the Spectrum website, it should be at least 200Mbps. If the room with the ping pong table isn’t big enough we might have to use the living room for the LAN.

So we are happy to announce that this year’s QotL can join the ranks of Forknife and Chicken Pox Legends by offering our event at no cost**! Players can enjoy sleeping in a tent, foraging in the woods for berries, running gasoline generators to power their PCs, and tethering to their phones for internet.

Don’t want to grind all week long? We’ve got you covered.

QotL 2018 Announcement!

We start with nothing. No Information, nothing to go on. The circle is wide open, could go anywhere. Where do we drop? DC? Atlanta? Somewhere in the middle maybe? Gatlinburg? No, we did that last time. Something different but familiar. Someone call it.. Poconos? I could do Poconos. It’s northeast on the map but not too far in case the circle goes bad. Almost time to jump. 3.. 2.. 1.. DROP!

Date is August 5th 2018, perfect timing. This could go well! Feeling the rush of wind on my face as we speed to the drop point. Now it begins.. Just need to secure a house and set up shop. This one will do.. 7 bedrooms, large basement, hot tub, big screen projector setup. Fast internet. Air conditioning. Great loot! Going very well so far but the circle is shrinking.

Other players making their way here! 12 is my count, could change. I hear shots coming from their computers, it’s officially a LAN Party! Each player in a battle to the death. Having a great time but there must be a winner. One by one each person is defeated by sleep. Until there is only one remaining..

This is Quake on the Lake!
