Calendar Event

This is the discussion thread for the i40 Gaming LAN...

The LAN will run from Fri 27th August (from Thursday if you go EAS) to Mon 30th, and will be held at Newbury Racecourse in Newbury.

There will be 2000 tickets available for this event, and it is expected that it will sell out too, so make sure you get in early to avoid disappointment!

If we can get enough people paid up early enough, I would like us to try and get a Clanbox - this is a 22 person self-contained box at the event, we will be on the same network as everyone else, but it will just be a different environment. See here for more info on the Clanbox.

If anyone has any questions about anything at all to do with this LAN, please ask them here and I or one of the other i-series veterans will answer them.

Here's a link to the i-series website - Ticket booking is now live!

Signing up
When you sign up, you need to make sure two things are set: firstly, in your information for your Multiplay profile, you will be asked for your "Clan Abbreviation" (clan tag). Make sure this is set to "[THN]"

Secondly, It will ask you for a "game area" to be sat in, it doesn't matter what you pick here as we can sit anywhere we like, however with enough people signing up we will try and get a clanbox. The "Game Area" is more of an indication for yourself such that you can more easily find people that will be playing the same game(s) as you that will be sat nearby.

I'll grab my ticket as soon as they open the bookings, including EAS.

I won't be staying on site, though. I'm going to base from home to avoid the drunken 3am antics and generally get a better sleep. Shouldn't affect things too much, though, as it'll be a 40-45 minute drive each way for me.

If Iro is going then I'll come too (as I say every time!) as I should have the money to afford a ticket and feed myself.

Can we sort out where we will sit if we dont / cant get a Clanbox? Earlier the better, tbh.

In relation to that it's all about where they put the game zones. Depending or where they put the CoD and MMO sections which is a preferable place to be and go from there is the best way to work it.

Also if we don't get a clanbox, no rush on seat picking as they will move ppl around to accomodate clans.

Go to the Main Multiplay site and on the left should be some account management options - go to the edit details page and you can change stuff on there

In addition to bob's comments, the seat picker is not active yet.

In the event that we do not get a box my current suggestion would be to try and all be together on the Concourse, which is Berkshire Ground Floor

What he said, if not then berkshire second floor is quite nice as well.
