sounds like the stuff's pretty good too......one of em have Ginseng, a really good supplement for energy and whatnot (and the buttload of caffeine doesn't hurt either

).....ya, I thought people were just talking like rednecks when they kept saying BAWLS, roflmao

HAHA that's funny

tomorrow, we're gonna have our seating arrangement system up and running for pre-paid members...

prepare to be blown away... it's gonna look sweet

illuminati, are you gonna make an appearance?

by the way, the seating arrangement system will be up and running today. we're working out the kinks so that it's ready to go.

SEAT RESERVATIONS ARE OPEN FOR PRE-PAID MEMBERS!

to choose your seat (so you can sit by friends or with your team, etc), you must pre-pay. COST OF RESERVING YOUR SEAT IS FREE!

all you have to do is pick which seat you want from the drop menu.

if you wish to change your seat at any time, you can do so (for example, let's say i chose a seat and a week later, i wish to sit elsewhere. if the seat i want is still open, i can simply click to reserve that seat instead of the seat i previously had).

the names of the members and their corresponding seats are listed beneath the seating chart.

it's that easy

you don't have to register a seat... it's just something extra we made to make things easier for people.

Unfortunately, I'll be out of town that day. Wish I could be there! Look forward to seeing the pics!

If I do make it by, it would only be as a onlooker/lurker. No time for that sort of thing lately with the wife and I just starting up another side business (more the wifes) but I end up making a lot of wood items for her. Besides, I don't think I'm a good enough gamer to commpete at a Lan. My son on the other hand is good enough, but he is also starting a new computer tech job at Boeing this week and I think he's pretty short on time also.

-mogwai · Post by **-mogwai** » Wed Dec 21, 2005 12:47 pm

well, this event will be on a saturday

also, you don't have to be good at gaming to play at a lan party

that's why it's a PARTY ;) those who want to can compete in the tournaments, but it's not required. we'll have other game servers up for people to play on while people are busy with the tournament.

by the way, we have 101 people registered.... 19 to go.

don't forget to pre-pay. that's the best way to help us buy you lots of sweet things as door prizes.

-mogwai · Post by **-mogwai** » Wed Dec 21, 2005 11:32 pm

109 registered....
