"Haters say that the Earth is flat, but I know that it is round. For I have seen the shadow of the earth on the moon and you know what? Haters gonna hate."*
--Ferdinand Magellan, captain of the first voyage to circumnavigate the world

Who: You, me, Roker, and Phineas Fogg
What: Around the World event
When: 7 EST, 6 CST, 5 MST, 4 PST on Sunday, February 12
Where: The events server at 68.168.100.122:27015
Why: Win a hat! (hatters gonna hat)
How: Password is round​




* His actual words. No, really.
 
apparently internet terms and the ability to travel to the Moon existed during Magellan's time.
 
I'm sure Magellan actually said that.

No. Really. He totally would have like said something like that! xD
 
This looks like a lot of fun! :)

I'd like to ask something, and I totally understand if it's not possible. I play on a 4+ year old Macbook with a wireless internet connection - it takes me FOREVER to download a map. Would it be possible to make the maps known in advance, so I can make sure they're in my maps folder before the event? That way, I don't have to spend most of my event time downloading. Last event I came to, it was literally "download for 10 minutes, play map for 2 minutes, map changes, start over." :crying:
 
The entire event is actually a reenactment of this music video,

Enjoy!

In the interest of continuing to bring you different maps, I have planned to host the event on ctf_steamroll. I'm also planning to open the server at least a few minutes in advance to allow people to download the map if they do not have it. Should anything go wrong with this, the event will be hosted on a standard Valve map to minimize time lost.
