Im just after sending all the update Emails/PM's to those attending. If you didnt get one, it goes a lil' sumtin sumtin like this : ----------- Im sending this PM to everyone attending, just to confirm attendance. Only 18 days left till Ennis LAN I. We've had to cap the LAN at 20 people, so everyone will fit upstairs. If your bringing two PC's (one for gaming, one for leeching) PM me in advance. There might'nt be enough network points. If you havent signed up, we're full, but reply to this if your interested, and i'll see what i can do. Are you renting a PC? - If so have you booked one one room101? If you havent, you'll be stuck with 233mhz, 64mb pc66mb ram, on board 2mb graphics, and a 13'' monitor Echo is going to take apart a few house PC's to beef up rental Pc's for the LAN. (If you have any spare PC/Networking parts etc, he would be grateful - he's going to a lot of trouble setting up the Cafe for the LAN.) PC's on the night should be ~700mhz, GF2's (I think), 512mb ram, 10gig HD's. Mice/Keyboards in the cafe are pretty basic, so if your bringing your own, bring nescessary drivers etc. Monitors are supplied. You will need to bring headphones on the night, even if renting. No speakers. Games on the night will include CS, Quake, Quake 3, BF1942, DC, UT, and more. If you have any suggestions for games/mods please reply with download links etc. Bring Game CD's & spare CD Keys with you on the night. Also bring along any App's/Drivers you think will be needed/someone might need. I suggest you bring a nice big Hard Drive with you and maybe a CD burner. Echo has a few spare NIC's for sale in the cafe, and iv been informed of 120gig HD's for ~€130 if you need them, but tell me a good bit in advance if you need one. He also has a few computer parts on sale in the Cafe, so again, tell me in advance what you need and i'll see if he has them. On the night, we're gonna close the upstairs part of the cafe at about 6 or 7, to set it up. Those attending will be allowed in from ~7.30pm on. There are many Take-Aways/Pubs/Off-Licences near the Cafe so that wont be a problem. We'll make a few orders during the night The cafe will be closed during the duration of the LAN and im not sure if people will be allowed tear out during the LAN. Anyways, If your not attending, remove your name from http://www.room101.org/comments.asp?item=122&view=on and hit remove. If you want to sign up go to http://www.room101.org/comments.asp?item=122&view=on and hit sign up. Map of EdgeCom Internet Cafe : http://www.room101.org/gallery/122/ennismap.jpg I will PM you a phone number for the Cafe a few days before the LAN, just in case you get lost Any suggestions/queries etc., reply to this PM with your query. conZ ------------

Tom-The Box has 3 seats remaining in his car from Dublin. Post up here if you'd be interested in a lift. Echomadman has ordered a few GF4's for the rental PC's. If anyone has any spare GF4's, could you post here, as we still need one or two i think.

Games on the Rental PC's are... Counter-Strike, DOD v1, BF1942, Desert Combat, UT, Quake (quakeworld) Quake 3, Other games on the night will hopefully be... UT2k3, C&C Generals, And whatever else ye want (presuming you bring the CD) *************************************************** BRING GAME CD's, UTILS CD's, ANY MOVIES... ANYTHING OF INTEREST... ---------------------------- IF YOU'VE GOT EDO RAM FOR A LAPTOP (for me), OR 256 DDR RAM (for ryo hazuki), BRING IT. ---------------------------- PEOPLE RENTING PC'S, BRING HARD DRIVES IF YE WANT (WE'LL TRY GET THEM UP.. DONT KNOW WHAT CART'S ON ABOUT) - ECHO HAS 2 X USB2 HDD CADDIES. BRING YOUR HD'S. ---------------------------- BRING CD-KEYS (legit ones for HL) etc. ---------------------------- *************************************************** Directions from the bus & train station : (Walking directions.. If your getting a taxi, ask for Parnell Street Car Park and get him to drop you off outside PACE Videos.) Go out the entrance of the station and go towards the round-about. Go straight on at the round-a-bout to the end of the round and take a right. This will bring you up a one way street. Walk on till you come to the O'Connell monument. When your at the monument, walk towards Japan (the closed down shop). Walk past it and you should see a cobbled pedestrian street. Walk down near the end (past the cinema) until you meet a red coloured chipper called 'Enzos' (Enzo's on Parnell Street if your asking for directions). Take a right at Enzos, bringing you down a laneway. Then you'll see the "EDGECOM COMPUTERS" big gay blue building... Thats the Cafe. Just past the cafe, on that lane, is PACE VIDEOS. Thats where you'll be getting dropped off in a taxi. *************************************************** end of new messages.. Goodbye UPDATE : RYO HAZUKIE, EXHOMADMAN HAS "quot" I have 2 DDR333 512 sticks here. I may be able to lend/sell you one of em How much did you pay PC world for the 256?

Ennis LAN I was the second most viewed post (keep hitting refresh lad's), and was the 9th most commented LAN... and that was only on Room101.org. We got 106 replies and 1107 views on the Boards.ie thread. We R 1336. Anyways. I was thinking of another ~25/30 player LAN in October. Hows the Bank Holiday weekend of the 26th or 27th sound? We'll be the most commented and viewed yet...
