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

[Gerrard]

It's not all over yet. Rasher was suppose to have increased the size over the weekend, but hasn't yet. The last post he made said they were extending the main room and using a separate sleeping room (same as last year). Azrael hasn't paid yet either and will no doubt make some noise about it! I would keep an eye on it this evening and tomorrow evening, as it will no doubt be confirmed what's going on soon.

If the sleeping room is next to the toilets again, then I might ditch the tent idea and go with plan B, the back of my car (which you can still share if you want to Rai ). There's probably more room in there anyway. I'll still bring the tent and make my decision Friday.

guys, are there going to be any "new since the last lan" games i should be getting asap? l4d2? i know about but anything else?

[Gerrard]

I believe L4D2 is the only one, which I've noticed is released tomorrow. Not sure if MW2 will be played or not.

so, it's monday night, i'm not busy emptying the contents of the house anymore, madduck seems to be online, so what time for friday then ?

i will be in all day, stuff will be by the front door thursday night, some of it is already waiting there now.

what time are you aiming for at my house?

and its up to you whether to bring spare monitor, my dad got one for a few quid from auction 2 weeks ago (im sure i mentioned it) so i'll bring my own. its a 15" NEC-summat-or-other. i'm quite happy using that, unless you want to bring yours along too. im not fussed either way.

other than that i have everything i could need. even the haribo

Left4Dead 2 unlocks in 10 hours. managed to download it last night at 2.30am whilst watching those iwo jima films.

roughly an hour from mine to yours, i think i set off for the lan proper at 6 last time, but i stopped for suppliesbefore so i can knock 30 mins off there. soo ill be at yours 15mins either side of 18:30

do you want me to put it in the car, then when i get there say "no, no room for that iv already got one for you"

Not sure if MW2 will be played or not.

I may be able to help people out for MW2

Is it worth me bringing my Wii, got the new Super mario bros and think it would be fun with drunks on co-op (as well as the racing games)

I'll get my 360 along with the following:
Grid
Dirt
PGR4
Forza 2
Burnout Paradise
GoW 1/2
Halo 3
Halo Wars
UFC Undisputed (this is fun when drinking!)
Borderlands (if someone wants to help me grind lol, or bring a memory unit with their character)

Got a 5 port switch for system link games (and running my pc at the same time as the 360)

I was thinking about guitar hero/beatles rock band but I dont think there will be a huge amount of space....

see you at 18.30ish then.

as for the monitor, if it does happen to take up enough room for mine to not fit anymore, then a DVI lead wouldnt go amiss either

[MadduckUK]

i think a power cable would probably seal the deal as far as space goes, shame. you'll have to use it then

Just make sure you bring your ear defenders.... I've got a bit of a cold. If there is a seperate room then a bit of spare floor will be fine... the duvet trick will be good. How much room is in the back of an estate... isn't it a bit ummm cosy?!

[Gerrard]

No more cosy than the tent will be!

[tiggerai]

Guys - Can I ask a massive favour?

If I send my PC up with GK on friday afternoon (and possibly Chilli's too) would you be able to set them up for us so that we can get straight into it when we arrive?

I'll sleep anywhere - I'm not fussy!

[GAteKeeper]

I'll be bringing the hardware, you guys bring the admin password cracking tools.

GK

[tiggerai]

hmmm ok, scratch that....

What time is everyone aiming to be there?

[GAteKeeper]

ahh where is your sense of letting your peers 'use' (read abuse) your rig?

[tiggerai]

Not my brand new rig no.

if you want to abuse something.... abuse Guy.

[MadduckUK]

yes rai we can do that

im aiming to be there aaaaaat.. presuming i get away from stevies at 1830 then a few mins before 20:00
