[mod note: If this is in the wrong forum or inappropriate to post I appologize in advance]

I know there are some Easterners on these boards so I thought I'd post this up as an FYI

Lansomnia Canada is already the largest LAN party in Atlantic Canada and this year we've pretty much gone bigger on everything. Bigger room (8000sq/ft), More Gamers (300), More tournaments (12 PC and Xbox Combined) and more prizes!

We are a WCG preliminary qualifying event this year (WCG Website - win a WCG tournament and you get an invite to the nationals in Montreal). Note that you can still compete in WCG tournaments if you're not Canadian, just can't qualify for the nationals obviously if you win.

Lansomnia II will also be the first official MGA (Maritime Gaming Association) event. The MGA is a collaboration between all smaller LAN events in Atlantic Canada with a purpose of furthering the gaming scene in our region.

On top of that, we are also donating $5 from every event registration to the IWK children's hospital to help buy gaming consoles for sick kids to play during their stay at the regional hospital.

So if you're within driving distance you might want to check us out at www.lansomnia.ca. Even if you're not feel free to drop by the forums and say hello.

That's awesome, I didn't know there was something like that in Fredericton, if I still lived in Sussex I would be all over this, but Bridewater is a little far away :(.

Yeah, getting the word out to people in the area always seems to be a task for some reason. If you know of anyone else that might be interested please feel free to pass the information on. Thanks!

Hurry and get your registration in before July 14th so that you can save on the pre-registration fee otherwise you will pay more after the 14th and especially if you wait to pay at the door.

It's a good event and is going to be even bigger this year with even more and better prizes.
