    Does anyone know where in UCD this yokey is?
    I know to get out to it I can grab a 46A or 46E bus, but UCD's a fairly large campus =D

    EDIT: They'll probably have signs up all around he college since it's a convention. Silly me~

    It's on in the UCD Student Centre.

    It's labelled as 17 in quadrant D5 in this map.

    Most of the buses leave from O Connell St. so it shouldn't be a problem getting someone to meet you at the spire, Tinja and Ramza.

    I'll find out for you tomorrow.

    I'll be checking the place out on Saturday so I'll be able to give people as much info as possible on Saturday evening.

    If anyone who is driving could bring even a small CRT it'd be handy, but I think consoles is the one thing that they are afraid they'll be short of, so if a few people could bring an xbox or a PS3 that'd be very handy.

    I just realised I'm on Easter holidays next week, so I'll definiely be at this yoke. I can bring a 360 with me with VGA/Component/HDMI cables, so there'll probably be something that it'll run on. =D

    Thank you guys for all the support!This looks like it'll be some craic!:D

    The tournament will start at 1,there will be sign ups and warm up games from 12.

    As for getting there,there's 2 places buses stop,on campus itself and at the slip road outside.The 10,2,3 and 17 stop on campus itself,while the 46a,145(these 2 are the most freqent) and other buses that I currently can't remember stop at the slip road!I'd recommend getting the 10 if you've no idea how to get to UCD,as the stop you want is the last one and it goes from O'Connell Street.

    I will put signs at both places to make sure you can find your way to the student centre in any event.

    Finally lads,one last thing: The clocks go forward an hour on Sunday so make sure you take that into account!(Damn Gaelcon and their stealing of time from us.:P)

    That's the one chunkis.

    Thanks for all the offer of hardware. We'll let people know individually if we want them to bring their gear when we have a better idea of what we have overall.

    Can we get a roll call for this to get a rough idea of numbers?

    why would you be asked to unsticky it, that makes no sense.

    Some people believe that people don't read stickies and ignore them.

    (Personally I am not so sure, the charter over in the Nocturnal forum has over 5,000 views, and that's the least interesting sticky there).

    This thread will likely be constantly bumped this week anyway, but I too thought it odd that Jim wanted it unstickied.

    Yea, it was me.

    I am of the belief that people rarely read stickies and glance over them to get to the first unread unstickied post. When I used to do lots of work for Battlefield forums with tournaments etc I found this to be true. Maybe its not so much the case anymore. Perhaps I am superstitious!

    When I go to the forum I check all new posts, meaning all thread titles that are highlighted in bold. However farz's post in the other thread kinda proved jims point. & I know people such as terry check the forums based on notifications by subscribing to a thread or something liek that.

    She looks like a more masculine Brian Molko, but all this has nothing to do with Vaticon, so any chance a mod could clean the thread up a bit?
