LAN WAN Countdown

[Zak33]

OK......in 1 week and a day it will begin

FIRST: I have reinstalled XP (so TiG will need to reset my network but he was so damn fast at it anyway, no worries )

Broad Band Phat Pipe is running full steam at 1mbit down and 256 up

1 gig DDR 333 installed and it helped loads

TiG has a 14 port hub and a long cable and loads of short ones.

I have a huge table and loads of chairs, plus a miedium table....Deck..still bring yours incase we split the LAN to seperate rooms later on.

YOU ALL NEED to consider.....BRING THE GAME ITSELF
Joysticks......I have three mains power splitters, but more would be good.......REMEBER SPEAKERS......I have spare set for Tumble to use on TiGs PC...and REMEBER SPEAKER LEADS....mini jack to phono.

Sleeping bags and pillow if you are girly and need sleep at all (Tumble, just a bag mate, you can rest your head on Deckards lap )

Data disks with MAPS ON......or URLS to download them from.

Microphones IF you want to be using Voice Comms...(although we should all be in the same room )

Any other game disks for other Lanning...(UT, Q3. Half Life etc) although Idont anitcipate much of that

Anyother stuff people? Beer clearly (Tumble, dont worry about that)

I shall go shopping on Firday , so everyone decide want ya wanna eat all weekend.....I'll nail it.

God Im looking forward to this.....

GL guys, sorry I can't be there, I'll be thinking of you whilst sunning myself in the US

[Zak33]

you go look after your new wife mate ...have a great time, and think about Marlins when that Boeing takes off and just PRAY it aint got a bloke in a fighter plane, escorting it across the sea who then clips the wing in a silly-arse manouvre

All the best dude

Zak u pusseh, I'm going to Hat's on Thursday nite so it'll be full power weekend as my B'Days on the Friday as well

[Zak33]

Pull Poweh lol......yu wait until you see my secret weapon...

the Wright Flyer ...its so lame I cant it get off the floor, so you cant shoot me down

[Tumble]

no need to sort speaks out Zak - bringing my headset - gives me better directional awareness of planes around me, plus helps cut out the noise from everyone else got a mic on that built in

[TiG]

I think Dungeon Siege would be amusing with a few people too, its great plus i'm sure its not possible to play FB for all that time, my experience of Lans in the past is i get bored of the same game after 6-8hrs, and need a change.

Quake 3 is also fun, not CS far to crap waiting when you get shot immediately, or bf1942.

Are we going to be playing some VEF?...

TiG

[Zak33]

you will look like an Air Stewardess in that

*imagines Tumble with his hair up, and his orange neck tie and Easy Jet skirt on*

[Zak33]

VEF would be good indeed

[[GSV]Trig]

VEF would own as 1 location could be [SF] the other [MA]

[Moby-Dick]

I'll bring my headset along too

which reminds me I've got to rebuild my LAN box its a little flakey atm

[Nick]

And guess who knows how to host VEF????

[TiG]

i've been told its easy, i guess any old tom, deck or harry could do it

[Tumble]

I've got half-life for light netertainment - more UT stylee, will run on the most basic of PC's and you only need the one disk to play on a LAN (and that's to install it) I'll bring that along

[Zak33]

good stuff........I gotta tell you TiG...that is THE WORST PLAY ON WORDS EVER

Any Tom Deck or Harry......:swoon symbol not yet made:

And Tumb, Deck or Moby would be better
