H3XU5.LAN - 20/21/22nd November 2009 - Uttoxeter

[Gerrard]

I think if we fill it up by the end of the month, Rasher will look at increasing the amount of places, probably with the same setup as the November one last year, with the sleeping room by the toilets.

I'm sure there's enough spare bit 'n' pieces between us to build another rig. However, it would mean spending most of Friday night putting it together, trying to get it to work, installing Windows and then installing games. Then there's the taking it apart on Sunday! As I said earlier, I might be breaking my cardinal rule of LANs and try and build a new rig just before it, leaving me with a spare.

iv sold most of my second rig, or we could just have used that as usual

If your willing to bring a hard drive and install windows on it at the lan I could be persuaded to bring my media PC for you to use?
Dual core Athlon and 9600 GSO, not the fastest machine out there but better than being gaffa taped to the top floor balcony...

[Salazaar]

I just popped over to Game at lunch time and grabbed Grid, C&C Generals, Unreal Anthology (including Tournament and Tournament 2004) and BF2, all for £30

Reckon I'm all set now.

That's what I run... it's perfectly acceptable for LAN use.

4 more and we'll be equalling our team attendance record! Go H3XU5!

Shirts were about £20-22 but are customised with your name on the back

9 Hexus so far, impressive

[tiggerai]

You should see the BP meets - they're even more impressive!

Sounds pretty reasonable for personalised shirts.

What are the sizes like? I'm always stuck between choosing L and XL.

[tiggerai]

Go for XL as a precaution - you can always wear another t-shirt underneath (as Fin does)

I wouldn't know for the boys... but generally they come out about right... those who thought they were an L have fitted correctly etc.

Guys - reports on the T-shirts? mine is a lady-build shirt so I can't comment.

Er can't remember off hand, I am pretty sure mine was a large, and its ok it did shrink a bit in the wash, so now its erm a little *snug*

[tiggerai]

Rasta - Polo shirts were coming out at £30 for the printing we wanted.

I've tried a different design

Anyone interested in a Polo Shirt - I can get them down to about £25 each with personalisation, £23 without - as the more I order the more I can spread the postage around.

Most definately Not to mention quite a few others on the list as well.

As for the shirts, I'd definately go for a polo shirt rather than a t-shirt.

Edit: Question on headsets and mics, what do people use? I've got a decent headset but my (seperate) mic wouldn't be a lot of use in that kind of environment.

[TAKTAK]
