Ok, so I was right. The house is a $1m house, not that they spent $1m to make it a lan party house.

Nope.

But at this point I don't understand why you haven't just read the article...

[–] Blue_Morpho 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Did you not read?

" The house overall was a 7-digit number"

Nowhere did they say they spent $1 million for the PCs, networking, and custom desks.

Bud...

You're having a separate conversation than anyone else...

This isn't the first time this has happened, and I don't think me putting effort in has ever helped you understand anything.

I'm sorry, I can't help you anymore.

This isn't the first time this has happened

How about a quote from the article where it says they spent $1M just on the Lan party part of the house instead of insults?

I said they didn't spend $1M only on the Lan part. You replied, "$75k on PCs from the article plus custom desks".

Then you got hostile?

Edit: I scrolled through your history and only saw a long list of your posts that I up voted. I'm not sure what you meant by "this isn't the first time" as if we have a history of arguing.

Agreed. The lan aspect of the house did not cost $1 million. The house did. The house minus the lan party section still cost a million dollars.

12 tables, 12 computers, 12 monitors, 12 chairs, one switch... Does not cost a million dollars
