    Re: HEXUS.social - Group LAN team

    I going into town at the weekend, but want to make sure I don't forget to get anything. Here's my current list of what to to take to the LAN: -

    Computer (well, d'uh!)
    Monitor
    Alcohol
    Keyboard
    Mouse (x2 I happen to have a spare)
    Drink (caffine and taurine based)
    Headphones
    Mic
    Alcohol
    Power splitter
    Network cable(?)
    Food
    Ear plugs (I can sleep with jets going overhead, but people snoring may be a problem)
    Joystick
    Alcohol
    Camera (for anit-blackmailing - I won't show mine if you don't show yours )
    Airbed
    Sleeping bag
    Snacks
    Wash kit (more for damaged limitation I think )
    Spare clothes
    Software
    360 and PS3 control pads
    Sense of humour

    Think that's all. Oh, did I mention alcohol? I have in fact orderd that Beer Butler thing that was shown on the GameOn forums (rotating 4-way spirit dispenser). It was £9.99 from Robert Dyas.

    It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt; then it's bloody hilarious!

    ^good question.

    I love the way that the first round of alcohol comes in before the keyboard and mouse...

    Why do you want a sleeping bag? You can't possibly expect to have to sleep (or sleep safely)?

    No ones safe, we got someone in a car once who thought we wouldnt get him, bin bags round the car so not to damage the paint, then gaffer taped the doors shut

    We got another one by lubing up his steering wheel

    On the note of what to bring, dont bother with food or alcohol, theres a tescos round the corner, get there, set up then go shopping, saves fafing about.

    If you wanna get back to Reading in one piece, without the optional armco barrier attachment then I will need some sleep

    + Sleeping safely, I spent a good few nights sound asleep in the Scoob, not sure that can happen in the 200 though . . .


    Platinum: Is it one of the big 24 hour Tesco's? + Wheres the nearest Subway?!?!?!?!
