First Official Lan Party!!!! November 21, 2008
Here it is, the announcement of the first PoiXson Lan Party!! November 21, 2008. We hope to make it the best weekend of your whole year! this can obviously only be done if you attend, so hurry and let us know you’re coming! here are some of the details
Location: my house. the living room and kitchen are connected, so we have 14×35 feet of space to fill. we have enough power for 20 people to attend. directions will be given out when it’s closer to the date. there is a wawa, mr z’s, at least 5 pizza places within a 10 minute drive, and a walmart within 25 minutes.
Network: we have a very powerful network for you to tap into. there is enough bandwidth for everyone at the event to share and trade files all at the same time, with no decrease in speed, and can still handle a good 5 times more! 15mb/s cable internet with a reliable linux router with QoS, so everyone gets a good stable internet connection, and no one person can hog it no matter what. 19 people playing world of warcraft and one person being dumb sharing a torrent, shouldn’t cause a problem with this set up.
Free Food: there are 2 options. if you choose to pay the small door fee to attend the event, you will have plenty of FREE pizza subs and soda to enjoy all weekend, as well as qualify for a raffle entry and tournament prizes. a shopping cart full of mountain dew, I’ll drink a bunch of bottles myself. maybe we can even find the new root beer bawls someplace to try.
Door Fee: $12 prepaid or $15 at the door.
Prizes: are yet to be desided and annoynced. feel free to give us ideas
Games: here is a short list of games that we will be playing for sure. any other games not listed here are very welcome and will surely be played.
- Quake III
- Unreal Tournament 2004
- Flat Out 2
- Rock Band
- Worms World Party
- Counter Strike
- World of Warcraft
- Warcraft 3 and Starcraft
Entertainment: there will be movies and music playing all weekend. maybe some funny youtube clips, gotta have Kung Pow playing at some point, and Pineapple Express. We’ll have a 400 watt pa system and a 2000 watt sub for movies and music and Rock Band!
Plenty more info to come. please ask us any questions and offer all your suggestions!
