hehe.....secret :3 (if u ask b4nny u will be assured they are coming soon*)

*+1 month per request +tax

I'm not affiliated with RESUP anymore (I stepped down last week). Still, I can confirm that one person is working on sorting and editing the photos before they become available to the public. There is a Google Drive folder that exists with the photos. I've seen it and if some of you have a better memory from my previous post, I even said I'd make an imgur album about it before being politely asked by the admin team to not do that. They insisted that the photos were being worked on and would be uploaded soon after I made that post and I edited it to comply.

Bear pretty much hits the nail on the head, very few resources were allocated to getting the photos prepared and uploaded.

I mentioned in my previous post before anything was done with photos, leadership was adamant that REUSP fulfill donor obligations first. I'll give an abridged version of events that followed this decision:

The process of making sure these dues were met was pretty long due to the gap between LAN ending and staff reaching out, but after 2-3 weeks of either reaching out to donors who may have forgotten and figuring out who had working SteamTradeURL links, RESUP moved on with photos and other dues. Soon after this (and fairly recently), some other events popped up that pushed the release back of photos further.

I hope for future events, RESUP makes more considerations for quality assurance after LAN (photos, donor rewards).

tldr photos are being worked on with limited resourced but are slowly getting completed gg

I have asked in the staff discord twice (I'm not involved with media), so hopefully, the ball gets rolling. I'm a part of the staff and I don't even know what's going on with them. The full folder of photos from the weekend exists, it's in our discord.

EDIT: Staff has spoken, and photos are mostly done. They will be released only when RESUP closes out previous obligations (donor weapon signings, etc).

One last bump before we head into the event weekend! For those attending, we're really excited to see you, present lots of great matches and we hope those viewing from home enjoy our production!

We are still offering plenty of cool donation incentives and merch over at https://donate.resup.gg and https://shop.resup.gg

Don't miss out on submitting interview questions for the top teams with any donation of $20 or more, or joining the top teams for a cheesesteak meal with $100+ donations.

Full crowdfunding campaign can be seen on our website @ http://resup.gg/

Let's see if we can pump up the prize pool and potentially surpass last year's prize pool of $9000. We really appreciate the support!

If you have donated and would like to redeem perks, swing on over to our Discord!

Thanks!

Hello everyone!

TEAM REGISTRATION IS LIVE NOW

Standard Team Entry- $360 ($60/player) - Includes assigned access to PCs for the duration of tournament matches on Saturday and Sunday. Players will need to individually purchase hours on a Localhost account for any non-tournament gameplay.

VIP Team Pass- $500 ($83.33/player) - All-inclusive weekend pass! Includes tournament entry, assigned and reserved PCs for your team starting from 12PM on Friday to 9PM on Sunday! No need to purchase additional hours, a dedicated row of 6 PCs designated with your team's name for the entire weekend!

Spectator passes will be purchasable on the registration page soon, so check back for that if you want to buy one in advance, otherwise, we welcome anyone to just buy one at the door on the day of the event.

Based on our feedback from the last RESUP event, we devised the VIP tier for teams that would like to get set up on the computers the day before the tournament to warm up and scrim, as well as to include PC access after your tournament run ends for pugs or whatever you want to do. This pass will offer the best bang for your buck for the entire weekend with no stress about needing to pay for additional PC time.

The standard team pass will be for those that just need PC access during their matches, or who don’t mind paying a la carte for any extra PC time. The standard rate for open PC usage at LocalHost is $5/hour. This time is limited to Philly ONLY.

Please keep in mind that we currently have 12 teams already forming for this event, which only leaves 4 slots remaining. Please make sure to get your teams fully paid up and registered ASAP to guarantee your spot in our event!

We plan to help LFT attendees form teams to fill the remaining slots in the coming days, so make sure to contact witness__ on Discord and join our community Discord if you have any questions regarding the event itself!

The 2023 Team and LFT Sheet is now live!

Please shoot me a DM on Discord, witness__ if would you like to be added or removed from the LFT section.

If you would like to be added to the LFT section and love making my life easier, please include your most RECENT RGL division history/Experience. This ensures I can add you quickly!

Team reg will be live in the near future, if you have a team and plan on attending please DM me or b4nny on Discord with your full roster. Please include names and who's playing what.

I am working to get everyone who made an LFT prior to this post included, so if I miss anyone or make an error please reach out and I'll try to get it resolved ASAP.

Thank you, cu@!

We are excited to announce the next TF2 community LAN by RESUP.GG. We’ll be returning to The Block in Philadelphia from September 30th - October 1st, 2023. Some details are still forthcoming, but we wanted to get this basic announcement out to you guys quickly so you can start planning as soon as possible!

As a heads-up, one important change to this year's event is we are limiting the number of teams to a maximum of 16. We’ve implemented this as a solution to feedback from our previous event in Philadelphia to improve the player experience by eliminating PC swapping and moving around the venue during the tournament, so once you’re seated once, you’re settled!

For RESUP, we pride ourselves on our drive for quality and supporting the greater TF2 community. Feel free to ask any questions you may have and we’ll be happy to help! Developing changes and updates will be posted on this thread, so check back every now and then to see what’s new! You can also join our official Discord to keep up to date with event news!

Some details, such as event registration are still forthcoming but will be announced soon.

Help spread the word! Likes and Retweets are appreciated!

The 2023 Team and LFT Sheet is now live!

TLDR;

• Philly LAN!
  
• September 30th - October 1st, 2023!
  
• 16 team cap!

Im joining my first basketball rec league since high school in November and I'm happy it's given me more motivation to get back in the gym and starting relearning about a sport I've always enjoyed playing :)

Respectfully, no :)

After reading this thread up and down for about 30 minutes and bottling some thoughts knowing this log existed, I wanted to share some thoughts. If I get any concrete information wrong regarding the situation, please let me know so I can appropriately correct myself!

First and foremost, racism and transphobia is not cool. I care a lot about this community and love the game, priority number one is making sure we do our best as a community to not harbor hate. The Match Comm chat logs were disgusting, deplorable and a gross reminder that a living human specifically chose those words to cause harm.

Seeing a response like the one Hubida posted in the Match Comms really breaks my heart. This was over a ringer...in a video game? Just now getting an apology 11 months after the fact is suspect, but I'm happy he's starting to take a tiny step towards getting better.

Hubida, you're very lucky b4nny is giving you a chance as a player to prove yourself in the top of Invite and a platform as a person to demonstrate change. I don't know you very well and my limited reference for how you are as a person currently is that Match Comms page, but I currently have zero respect for you and believe you're still getting off way too easy.

You mentioned in your TwitLonger that you're working on it, which is very good! I can respect a person who is actively trying to get better and can admit fault but please don't stop here. Healing and growing is a process and shouldn't stop after 11 months. Don't stop trying to learn and improve because people aren't watching. Don't stop years later when you're not playing this game anymore.

Show the community in positive, constructive ways that you can act like an adult and demonstrate decency.
Show me and others that you're capable of empathy, understanding, and growing up.
Most importantly, show everyone that you're being sincere and serious about getting better as a person.

Hi everyone! I hope you all made it back home safe after LAN and if you were watching from home, had as much fun as we did on staff spectating the event over the course of the weekend.

Thanks!
Firstly, We’d like to open this post by humbly and genuinely thanking everyone who made this event happen:

- Our production crew, for grinding incredibly long hours to make a fantastic show happen.

- Our administrative staff, who worked diligently to ensure the tournament ran as smoothly as possible.

- Competitors who made the trek out to Philly and participated. Without the players, it’s hard to imagine an event even happening in the first place. From the Invite teams to the NC PUG teams, thank you all so much.

- Everyone who took time out of their day to watch live. Your support for our players and teams is a great motivator and drives us to bring you the best viewing experience possible.

- LocalHost and NerdStreet for giving us a wonderful platform and venue to operate this event. The staff was a joy to work with and very helpful in making sure any hardware issues were dealt with as best as their powers would allow.

- Every single person who went the extra mile to donate and support our project. RESUP.gg is a team that works tirelessly to elevate the game we love to higher levels. We strive to give our all to support our community and feeling the warmth of those who similarly believe in us is truthfully humbling, thank you all so much!

- Finally, we’d like to express our gratitude for our event sponsor, Marketplace.tf! Running a business is difficult enough as is, but you went the extra mile and supported RESUP.gg and the greater TF2 community anyway to enable us to make this event truly one of the most memorable ones in North America. Thank you!

Speed.

Hello everyone! Can you believe we're nearly 2 weeks away from LAN in Philly? Everyone has been working really hard on our end at RESUP.GG to bring you the most premium, hassle-free LAN experience in NA!

Per tradition, we'd like to make sure everyone is well informed about what we've been working on every one to two weeks. Here's a taste!

LFT/LFP Reminder, Sign up today!

We're currently sitting at 18 confirmed teams for LocalHost Philadelphia, which is already 7 more teams than our previous event in Fullerton! RESUP.GG would like to thank everyone for turning up and expressing eagerness to participate! Currently, our goal is to try and fill out the remaining slots to cap our event at 20 teams. If you're still LFT, we urge you to consider reaching out to others trying to get a taste of their first LAN participation experience. You can find our official LFT/LFP Sheet here, as well as start conversations in our community Discord here.

Our dedicated staff will happily assist with assembling teams for those interested!

Groups, Tournament Structure, Map Pool

For LocalHost Philadelphia, RESUP.GG will be separating teams into a 4 Invite group and two Open groups, all three groups will be facing off in a Round Robin scheduling structure within their respective groups. For the first day of the competition (Group Stages), the smaller Invite group will be playing out their matches on the stage while the Open groups will utilize the floor PCs to complete their matches.

As Group Stages concludes, the top 2 teams from each Open group and all of the Invite teams will continue into a double elimination playoff format.

The format for the group stages and playoffs will be:

• All Day 1 matches (group stages through playoffs round 1) will be Bo1.
  
• All remaining playoffs matches, including all elimination matches will be Bo3.
  
• Grand Finals will be a pick/ban Bo5 with a map advantage for the upper bracket finalist.

The RESUP.GG Map Pool will mirror the RGL.GG Map Pool from the current Traditional Sixes season. The list of eligible maps is as follows:

Should be the S9 Invite map pool:

cp_snakewater_final1
cp_gullywash_f7
cp_sunshine
koth_product_final
cp_granary_pro_rc8
cp_process_f11
koth_bagel_rc5
cp_metalworks_f4
cp_prolands_rc2ta

Schedule

Our event schedule will be jam-packed with some of the best in the country showcasing their skills! Here are some notes regarding what to expect while attending LocalHost Philadelphia:

• Teams will be required to check in no later than 10:30 a.m. on both Saturday and Sunday.
  
• The venue will run late for our event both Saturday and Sunday, with extended hours up to 12 a.m.
  
• Saturday will feature a 1-hour long break from 5:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. to allow teams time to rest, refresh, and refuel.

RESUP.GG would like to thank everyone for their interest, enthusiasm, and eagerness to bring TF2 LAN back with splendor! Everyone on staff is excited to see you in Philadelphia!

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to DM b4nny or me over on Discord @ b4nny#0323 and Witness#3415

Have a great week, everyone!

Post Edit: Hi everyone! I had made some errors regarding the map pool we'll be using for this event and we had some slight changes to the tournament schedule (specifically Bo1s and Bo3s). Apologies for any misunderstandings this may have caused! I pledge to be better in the future!

6/10/22 Edit: This update comes from a LocalHost PH employee. There is construction going on around the building so please planning accordingly when showing up to the venue!
