Our next event may happen sooner than later. Check back at www.lanmaniac.com from time to time to see if there are any 50 MAN LAN updates.

Our next event is looking to be a little south of Los Angeles. About 30 miles south of reseda.

I think this is the first time that I have seen you without your complete military fatigue :P

I'm glad that you enjoyed yourself. I was too busy being LAN mommy :P

In addition to our current sponsors...

Cocaine Energy Drink
Nvidia
AMD/ATI
Patriot
CPU Magazine

Newegg and EggXpert have hooked us up as well with some random merchandise.

100 Window Clings
50 Cups
10 Shirts
15 backpacks
20 keychains
25 Orange bags
10 Newegg gift bags
10 Eggxpert gift bags

You won't see anything along the lines of say a video card, cpu or motherboard on that list. They save those goodies for the Newegg LANfest LAN Parties! But none the less its great to see Newegg support and sponsor the smaller local events!

Once again, they come through! I can't say the same for most hardware vendors and corporations.

If anyone happens to have a contact in the hardware or software industry that me be interested in sponsoring a 50 person event, be sure to let me know!

Thanks!

We already have several dedicated machines for hosting servers. Included are multiple COD4 server configs.

At the LAN we are going to try and get everyone into the same game at the same time. Hint the reason for 50 person servers :P

When the official game list has run its course, then it will be time for COD4 a** kickin time!

Sooo... leave the game server at home. But feel free to load up your rig with shares of your favorite *demos* and *trial-ware* of course ;)

...we will have multiple 24 port gigabit switches for your leeching!

...One computer per person due to power limitations.

Thanks!

I would have given you more credit if IT WAS 1.6 and not CSS.

BTW your comp is more than enough to take on the official games of the LAN. Quake3 is a 8yr old game. CODUO is a 4+/- year old game. BF2 has the highest system requierments, but I belive you meet them.

Your only problem will be later on in the event when people start to put up COD4 and your mouth drops and hits the floor.

If you are down to play the games the group is playing, WITH THE GROUP, I welcome anyone! If you need a ride, that can be worked out.
