Silent Bob has 40 chronicles

1. Cyber Ops Summer 08
   

   Player Chronicle -- Posted on May 12 2008

   Boobacca and I have been brainstorming the last couple days coming up with new ideas to reward our existing clientele and draw in new customers now that we're approaching the end of another school year.
   
   We're hoping that summer keeps us hopping.
   
   Anyway, here's a couple of the promotions we're running. Starting Monday May 12th, we're having a Membership Drive Contest. If you're already a Cyber Ops member (monthly/quarterly/VIP), you can earn points when you get another person to sign up for a membership. Other than the monthly membership, all our other packages include free hours. Members will earn 1 point for a monthly membership signup, 3 points for a quarterly, 6 points for a semi-annual, and 10 points for a VIP membership. We'll run the promotion through Monday, June 9th. Highest number of points accumulated wins 2 weeks free unlimited game play at Cyber Ops. There may be additional prizes as well depending on level of participation.
   
   We're also going to have Flick & Frag events where we have people join us for a blockbuster summer movie and then head back to Cyber Ops for a night of gaming and pizza. This all starts Friday May 23rd with Indiana Jones. Other movies on our radar include The Incredible Hulk, Hellboy II, The Dark Knight, and Star Wars: Clone Wars. We'll provide transportation to and from the theater. Movie tickets are included in the price of the package. (Treats at the theater are NOT, however.) There's more info with dates on the website http://www.cyberops.com
   
   I'm still designing the card, but we'll have a Frequent Fragger members card that can earn you free game time. There will be ten slots on the card, and you'll earn a punch with each 3-hour block of time purchased. Fill all ten and you'll get a 10-hour block of time FREE as our "thank you" for your continued patronage.
   
   We're also going to have some members-only free gaming nights this summer, some members-only tournaments and other events, so watch the site for info. A lot of our customers that have been reluctant to get into a tournament before now are jazzed to have a members-only tournament. These will be free of charge, and the prizes will consist of free game time, posters and other swag.
   
   Lastly, we've got XBox LIVE HD game nights every Wednesday and Sunday. Team Ginormous is representing Cyber Ops in the national iGames ladder for Call of Duty 4 and Team Bunny Ranchers is our team for the Rainbow Six Vegas 2 ladder. Team Ginormous is currently ranked 15th out of 50 teams, and the Bunny Ranchers are 6th overall in their ladder. The top 16 teams in each game move on to post-season play for a total of $1500 in prize money. The COD4 team plays on Wednesday nights from 6:00PM to 9:00PM, and the RSV2 squad plays on Sunday nights from 6:00PM to 9:00PM. Come a couple hours before the ladder starts to watch an HD movie downloaded from XBox LIVE Marketplace on our 52" DLP screen in the VIP room. We've got a couple large comfy leather couches for you to kick it. The first movie we'll show is I Am Legend.
   
   The best part about our LIVE HD game nights is we'll be giving out some XBox swag randomly to some of the participants. We've got points cards, XBox 360 memory cards, hot rod face plates for your 360, XBox 360 hooded sweatshirts, and XBox 360 blankets. We'll have items for giveaway for the duration of the program. See the website for details on some of the other movies, TV programs and such that we'll have available for viewing. Come up and play some XBox LIVE Arcade games, check out new maps for COD4 and Halo 3. This is all free of charge. Then stay and cheer on our ladder teams or get in some action of your own (standard rates apply to gaming during/after the ladder).
   
   I almost forgot - we'll be having at least one lock-in a month, starting with an all-nighter on May 30th (Friday night 8:00PM to Saturday morning 8:00AM). For those who haven't been to one of our lock-ins before, they're just a ton of fun. We run mini-tournaments throughout the night for prizes, we order in pizza, stock up R2D2 with sodas and then have donuts & milk in the morning before you have to go. We're going to make the lock-ins smaller (around 15 people or so). We may have these more frequently than once per month if there is enough interest. I should have details on the site this week for the May 30th lock-in.

   Wow, that some nice brainstorming there guys It sounds like you've got some great ideas and I'm down for a few of those events for sure!
   
   Hopefully as you continue to push new members here, they can communicate with each other and organize more trips up to the gaming center...keep up the great work and let me know if you need anything.
   
   So you know, I'd like to discuss a GoG event to be held at CyberOps...it could be huge
