Bottom line? Come to lan. All of you.

Thank mr professor drshdwpuppet

ruwin is one of the greatest medics of all time.

Can we rename bigdoor to drackk

One of the nicest people at Rewind. He’s a grade A teammate.

Only thing making me sick is Canada’s hockey performance...

So sad to hear many of y’all are dying. Get well soon folks.

So much this.

Alright here we go. I'm probably going to miss a lot of you in this, but i'll do my best

• Jasbutts: Thank you for literally everything. For organizing the airbnb, for making sure we got where we needed to, when we're needed. For making sure I didn't get too fucked getting high for the first time. For being one of my absolute favorite people in this entire community. For working insanely hard to get incredible photos of everyone, and for being amazing company, and the very last person I saw from the community.
  
• ESA Wade This event couldn't have happened without the amount of work you put into it, and the amount you vouched for us. This community is forever in debt to you. Also thank you for hosting the party on the last night. I hope your house wasn't too big a mess.
  
• Turbotabs: Thanks for being the first person from LAN I saw, and it was a pleasure to catch up on the first night over a pint. You're a legend, and I'm so glad i58 wasn't the last time I got to see you.
  
• Jewlander, Funke and Witness: You guys chilled with me for almost the entire lan and were absolutely amazing company. You're all top notch people. Also we got the velocity chant going, and that was pretty loud.
  
• Smithsonian: I don't know where to start Cam? Thanks for dealing with a shit caster back in 2016 OZF land. Thanks for being a consistent casting rock that helped me get to where I am now. I wouldn't have casted at i58, or either Rewinds, if not for the amount of development I had casting with you. It was so surreal casting a LAN with you, and I'm blessed that I got to. Also thanks for losing some MGE games to me.
  
• Tino and Drshdwpuppet: You guys are two of my favorite people in this entire game. I loved you before we were teammates, I loved you after we were teammates, and I'm so glad we all got to spend a lot of time together again. Also shoutout to the most questionable bathroom door of all time for that one night in La Quinta... Sliding door with a giant peephole gap? Cause that wasn't sketchy.
  
• Dashner: This LAN wouldn't have been as brilliant as it was without the inhuman effort you put in. Thanks for not only the amazing show, but also for letting a no-name Dreamboat cast at i58.
  
• Cornpop: LAD! I met you and within 5 minutes I felt like we've known each other forever. We came into tftv together, we casted IM games together, and now we finally casted a LAN together. You're a brilliant caster with a hell of a future in it. I'm thrilled you got to cast the grand finals, and, as expected, hit it out of the park. You're also a hell of a friend, and that last day in the airport with you/jas was the perfect lan sendoff for me. I can't wait to keep working with you and also see you again. I63 here we come?
  
• Ma3la: While we didn't get to cast together this time, it was, as always, an blessing to see you again, you're an absolute legend and I already miss your grade A hugs.
  
• Ombrack: It's amazing how quickly you can absolutely love someone you've never met. In 3 days, you went from someone I had literally never interacted with, and became one of my favorite people. You're a legend.
  
• Nuze and Eepily: You two are also top tier blokes, you were amazing to talk to, both about tf2 and about literally anything. You brought a wealth of knowledge to the desk, and kept it fun and entertaining to watch. Also Nuze your accent totally gave me a boner. Real talk.
  
• Getwahale: Every single event I get blown away by your hosting. It's so pristine and smooth, and builds every event to be something truly special. You're also an awesome guy to be around. As well, I will never NOT appreciate how supportive you were of me early on in my casting career, you always encouraged me to keep going, and gave good feedback dating back to my EVLTV days.
  
• TSC: The whole pizza fiasco is literally your fault.
  
• Samiface: Thank you for everything you do for this scene (I literally could not list everything if I tried). Thanks for hosting us that saturday night, and thanks for causing me to lose it during ready up. You're one of TF2s greatest assets, and I fear the day that you leave. You're also such a genuinely nice and friendly person.
  
• Velocity TF2: You guys are some of my favorite people, and are definitely my favorite team. You were all so nice, and I had a fun time hanging with you guys. Shamoo, I'm so thrilled that you're farming at a high level, and it's something special casting you, since you were my regular UGC iron scrim partner in 2014. (Sneaky) Pete, you got me to play open back in S18 when I was convinced I wasn't good enough. The following season I started casting. I may not have been cut out for it as a player, but maybe I wouldn't be casting if you didnt push me to play open.
  
• Pie Hero: Words cannot describe you. You're a legend, and somehow even cooler than all the stories about you. Was special to finally meet you.
  
• Kings Crew: You guys came last, which sucks, but dear lord, you guys were the most fucking hype team ever. Made even the dullest parts of lan entertaining. You were all super nice too.
  
• Bren and Sideshow: For one, thanks for coming out, you make every event/party just that little bit more epic. Also those crowd chants, jesus christ, made the event.
  
• Froyotech: First off, congrats on winning it all for a second straight year (for the love of god someone please make a superteam to deny the 3peat). B4nny, thanks for FINALLY embracing the role of the villain and dropping some made shade in the interview. Also that taunt play might be the greatest bait play of all time. YOMPS, you were my MVP of the entire event, and you certainly endeared yourself to a lot of us in the crowd by smiling and bobbing your head around to the "YOMPS IS SHIT" chant. Definitely a LAN highlight for me.
  
• Se7en: For being amazing people as always. You're all always so approachable and fantastic to talk to. I'm so sorry the lan didn't go the way you hoped, but I hope this isn't the last we see of you. Raymon, you also give fantastic hugs. AMS, the compliments to my voice and casting you gave me thursday night literally almost put me to tears. Prior to coming, I was honestly on the verge of quitting casting after the event, your comments and the support from this entire community have at least delayed that from happening.
  
• Kaja: Thanks for keeping the trend of a euro guy kissing me every lan alive. I'm so glad you came, you're a quality dude who gives incredible hugs.
  
• Literally everybody else: This community is so loving and welcoming. After receiving threats following last rewind, I was super dreading coming to this lan. I was worried about how I'd be received, I was worried about people I could have hurt because I wasn't in a good place last rewind, and I'm so incredibly grateful to this community for welcoming me back with opens arms. As readyup made clear, everyone here is a part of something special, and I'm truly blessed to be apart of it. No matter what happens to me, knowing that all of you are out there and willing to give a hug, means more than I can put into words.
  
  Thank you TF2, thank you rewind, thank you everyone.
  See you at I63
  See you at Rewind3

Well done video.

Shoutout to Kenneth for letting me sign his chest.

(I’ll do a real one of these posts tonight, when I can drink and cry over how much I love this community)

Smithsonian is also an MVP for fucking crushing his first ever LAN cast. Australia's best kept secret has now been exposed.

Smithsonian is a legend.

This actually upsets me. It looked like high tier banter, upsetting. Oh well, he still went all in in his interview.

B4nny is the best villain in TF2 history.

It's OK sneaky pete. If he wont, I will.

Gotta agree with Houdini on Ascent/Se7en group stages snakewater game, that was insane to cast. As was the Black swan vs Kings Crew game on Process. those were the two best games I casted by a mile, so fucking hype.

Yomps was my MVP.
