GalwayLAN9 (GLIX)

po0k

Dates:
Friday 26th March 5pm onwards
Sat 27th March
Sun 28th March

Venue:
Bank of Ireland Theatre, NUIG

Cost: €25 for prepaid, €30 on the day

There will be no frivolous leeching during the day.
People are expected to have their shares setup as soon as possible.
Ye can browse around and queue up files for download (LeechFTP or FileZilla are great clients).
Then as we leave at night, eveyone can start their queues downloading and it'll all be there waiting in the morning.
This method is neccessary because leeching can put quite a load on some machines' cpus if they're being hammered constantly by multiple clients/threads while in a game and is unfair.

Anyone caught leeching without the machine owner's permission will be corn-holed by Asok / sodomised by the shotgun-toting Number6

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

It's got to be sassy, and take in the essence of Galway. Things like Claddagh Hookers, the craic and Buckfast.

All three can be combined into picture of a drunken chavette down the Sparch on a Saturday...

[CALIBUR]

That date is ok for me. I'll try to come this time...

po0k

sign up on Room01.org so

Sniipe

I'd put one 2gether 4 u but I've no artistic vision

Fobia

I'd put one 2gether 4 u but I don't want to :P

DRakE

Raven or sionnach would be the obvious candidates if you wanted a nice logo

Caliden

Fobia

Just a note on the times for this LAN:

On Friday the 26th from 2:30pm to 4:30pm I will be sitting the last of my 3rd year exams, "Microprocessor Systems".
The LAN is advertised as starting at 5pm.
This is due to there being a few people in there doing *something* till 5pm.
The furniture, tables and floormats will already be in the venue.
At 4:30pm (or earlier, depending on how fast I can complete the paper) I'll be leaving the Aula Maxima and heading straight to the college bar for a pint.
At 5pm I'll walk the 20m or so into the BOI Theatre and will start setting up the tables. At this time you can all bring in your kit and lend a hand setting stuff up if you want.
I hope to have the tables, chairs, mats, power cables and switches in place by 5:30pm at the latest at which point I'll start going around putting strips of masking tape with the IP numbers on them on each of the tables.
I hope to have everyone hooked up to the network by 5:40pm at the latest and gaming by 5:42pm, at which point I'm going to head back into the bar for another pint with my classmates and anyone else who wishes to join me.
I'm going to book the tables down the back of Massimo's for about 10:30pm and I'll get someone to take those of you who are going down to it, while I stay behind with anyone who's left till 11pm to ensure the place gets locked up all nice and secure like.
I'll then follow ye down.

I'll try my best to be in the venue at 9am on the Saturday and Sunday mornings, but sometimes shit happens.

Dunno what's happening Saturday night.
I'm planning on getting toasted back in the gaff after these two hard weeks of exams (where I couldn't go out for my birthday or Paddy's Day) before I head off to Dublin for the summer.
Things will probably start out in a pub somewhere. Probably Blue Note or something.
Saturday's are busy, but hopefully the norms will still be broke after Paddy's day.

Any questions/comments?

KinSlayer

I'm afraid myself and Rogue have had to pull out.
I'm in swinford this weekend doing an instructors coaching course in badminton

Rogue is off up to dublin for exams.

Right.
Prizes.
I got a free copy of BF:Vietnam off Smyth's.
There was a bit of a mix-up in communication.
I asked for 5 yesterday.
So I'm going to pop down at about 4:30 and buy another 4 copies (4 for CS, one for Quake Duels), hopefully Mary will give em to me at cost price.
We'll see how it plays out.

Asok

Those Bastards!

Anima

Good lan

Enjoyed it alot.

Fobia

Yarr.


/me grips his new copy of bf: Vietnam close to his heart

Caliden

best lan so far i thought, good bit of gaming however i failed to get DC working but had great fun with CS and quake2

tman

spent most of my time there leeching:rolleyes:
quakeworld - won the first round of the tourny, only to get utterly violated by cyan in the second (28 - 0 i think). great fun nonetheless
quake 2 - brightness wouldn't go up far enough to make it playable on my crappy crt. (if anybody has a 15" + to spare, let me know...)
cs - smeh.
dc - ****ing savage game, now i know what all the fuss is about

would've liked to play a game of warcraft 3, maybe next time...

DRakE

good enough lan, i enjoyed the cs.



but it just wouldn't have been a lan without a drake style storm off*









































*quakeworld :rolleyes:
