AI-Con Lans

General Info:

Because most of us have played StarCraft religiously in some part of our life, we’re decided to co-opt the ‘Spawn more overlord.depot.pylons’ joke for this, our 15th LAN which is around about the release date for SC2.

However on with the actual important information!  This LAN will be held on Saturday, July 31. Noon start-up, though doors open at 11.30AM. Event wraps up at 1AM, so a full 13 hours of madness.

Even bigger news though! With the recent vote to merge the TUU Anime Society into the TUU Digivisipop Society (who fund and control AI-CON LAN’s), its been decided that future screenings will be held at the LAN venue! See further below for a screening schedule. We will be screening all new current material, most of which is released in high def. Don’t hesitate to email me if you want to see something added. Nothing is too obscure!

Please remember that entrance is via the MAIN GATE via Howard Rd. Click here for a map specifying adjacent parking and event location. For those in the know we will be in the Administration Building, in the Patrons Room.

No Internet will be available, so Steam users please switch to offline. Boxes on the table this time, however you can place on floor at your own risk.  We also remind people to bring a surge protecting device if possible as the LAN cannot provide that equipment.

Copies will be provided for the unfortunate. Game play-list WILL NOT be subject to majority vote.  Wireless may be available but this is no excuse for not bringing a network cable.

Console gamers will be provided space as part of the ongoing console fight game tournaments. This continues to be a crowd drawer so please come along & pick up a controller. If your only attending to participate in console games its only $5dls. Venue does not have a projector so we will be relying on televisions in the console area.

Standard rules & common sense apply as we are on Hobart Showgrounds property so please remember to be courteous, clean and no alcohol. IF YOU MAKE A MESS CLEAN IT UP.

 Also all our LAN all our events are of a MA15+ rating, so please bear this in mind.

 We will be operating a DC++ HUB. This will be the only method of leeching available. We’ll be using YnHub and we STRONGLY encourage the use of DC++ 0.762 or ApexDC++ 1.3.3. Please pre-hash your files.

As we are paying venue hire for this event, all participants are required to pay $10.00 dollars to attend or $5 if you only play the consoles.

We now provide refreshments during the event. $1.00 for a can Solo or Coke. 600ml water also going for $1. Rockstar will be available for $3.75 for a 500ml can. We will also be making bowls of Mi-Goreng for $2.00 .
