friday 23rd to sunday 25th january
9am to 11pm each day
everyone must download, print out and fill in this form
under 18s must have it co-signed by a parent/legal guardian

we'll have the use of 1 if not 2 data projectors at this lan, so if you've got a console with the appropriate cables (rca audio and composite/s-video) bring it along

will be running a cs knockout, qw/q3 duels and prehaps ca, maybe battlefield
hopefully prizes, if people pay in on time
games:
quakeworld v0.3 (build 4xx)
quake3 - osp pointrelease v1.32+
unreal tournament 2003 v2225+
battlefield 1942 v1.5 + dc 0.6f
operation flashpoint + resistance v1.91+
mohaa + spearhead v2.15+
xiii
jedi knight academy
mariokart zsnes + .rom
avp(old but fast 'n fun) patch1+ // avp2 v1.0.9.5+
warcraft3 v1.05+
vietcong v1.01+
command&conquer generals v1.05+
mechwarrior4 mercenaries pointrelease1+
gaggle of halflife mods including that one with the guns in it. 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.0+
anything else if you can find someone else to play with you (il-2 sturmovik? )

requirements:

  • your box and everything needed to game
  • 10/100mbit network card
  • a decent length of network cable (cat5 or cat5e) if you want, we have cable ourselves but not loads
  • 4-way gang adapter/power strip and whatever extension cables you can lay your hands on.
  • headphones (no speakers!).
  • money for food, drink, accomodation etc.
  • your signed waiver - no admission without one
  • a cd/dvd burner and blank cdrs are advisable
  • melee weapon of choice (eg: batleth, frying pan, hampster etc.)
  • drivers/games/apps discs, os + cdkeys just in case you need to reformat on the day.
  • anti-virus software fully updated. i recommend avg free edition from grisoft.comno lan access without some.
  • an ftp daemon (server). this is because there will be no windows shares allowed.cuts down on traffic due to little or no smb packets on the network, is more flexibleand removes a vector for worms/virusii.
    the one i've linked to is freeware, can be run as a service and is just plain great.another one is servu, which some of you may have already. either way i can sort you out on the day.


there will be no frivolous leeching during the day.
people are expected to have their shares setup as soon as possible.
ye can browse around and queue up files for download (leechftp or filezilla are great clients).
then as we leave at night, eveyone can start their queues downloading and it'll all be there waiting in the morning.
this method is neccessary because leeching can put quite a load on somemachines' cpus if they're being hammered constantly by multiple clients/threadswhile in a game and is unfair.


anyone caught leeching without the machine owner's permission will be corn-holed by asok / sodomised by the shotgun-toting number6

Yeah, the general SMB leeching used lag people out anyways and the FTPds would often leave my machine at 100% load because a few people would be hammering it. This gets around that. Obviousbly if someone needs a patch urgently they just go to the person with it, ask em if it's ok and then leech that immediately. The "frivolous" leeching can be left till alter. Just make sure ye've enough disk space for everything.

Napalm Sticks to Kids We shoot the sick, the young, the lame, We do our best to maim, Because the kills all count the same, Napalm sticks to kids. Chorus: Napalm sticks to kids, Napalm sticks to kids. Flying low across the trees, Pilots doing what they please, Dropping frags on refugees, Napalm sticks to kids. Goods in the open, making hay, But I can hear the gunships say, "There'll be no Chieu Hoi today," Napalm sticks to kids. See those farmers over there, Watch me get them with a pair, Blood and guts just everywhere, Napalm sticks to kids. I've only seen it happen twice, But both times it was mighty nice, Shooting peasants planting rice, Napalm sticks to kids. Napalm, son, is lots of fun, Dropped in a bomb or shot from a gun, It gets the gooks when on the run, Napalm sticks to kids. Drop some napalm on a farm, It won't do them any harm, Just burn off their legs and arms, Napalm sticks to kids. CIA with guns for hire, Montagnards around a fire, Napalm makes the fire go higher, Napalm sticks to kids. I've been told it's not so neat, To catch gooks burning in the street, But burning flesh, it smells to sweet, Napalm sticks to kids. Children sucking on a mother's tit, Wounded gooks down in a pit, Dow Chemical doesn't give a shit, Napalm sticks to kids. Bombadiers don't care a bit, Just as long as the pieces fit, When you stuff the bodies in a pit, Napalm sticks to kids. Eighteen kids in a No Fire Zone, Rooks under arms and going home, Last in line goes home alone, Napalm sticks to kids. Chuck in a sampan, sitting in the stern, They don't think their boats will burn, Those damn gooks will never learn, Napalm sticks to kids. Cobras flying in the sun, Killing gooks is lots of fun, Get one pregnant and it's two for one, Napalm sticks to kids. Shoot civilians where they sit, Take some pictures as you split, All your life you'll remember it, Napalm sticks to kids. NVA are all hard core, Flechettes never are a bore, Throw those PSYOPS out the door, Napalm sticks to kids. Gather kids as you fly over town, By throwing candy on the ground, Then grease 'em when they gather 'round, Napalm sticks to kids.

There's a very slim chance (if Bog smiles sweetly on me) that we will have net access (ports 80, 22 and 6667) at the LAN. It'll be a bit jiggery-pokery, but it's possible. Just don't expect to be gaming online over it.
