Nor'easter Fall 2005 LAN Party - Wilmington, MA - September 17th and 18th

[jwkuipers]

Hey everyone,

I have been hosting LAN's in the Massachusetts area for around 4 years now with LANChelms and NELP. Last spring we got together with a group of LANs in the New England area and threw a 350 person party. This fall we are doing it again, aiming for our goal of 500 gamers. I'm hoping to have a large AnandTech presence there!

All the info is available at our website:

Some reviews of our April party:
Hot Hardware
Toms Hardware

Hope to see some of you there!

Lol. When I saw that I did a double take. Did he really say that to a newspaper!

Cool, thats sorta in my area (I'm in Bennington, VT). I'll talk to my friends and see if any of them want to go.

There's no age limit, right? (I'm 16).

I don't think so... you will need a note I think

 

[jwkuipers]

16 is fine. You will need a parents signature at the event. If they can't sign at the event a notarized waiver is fine.

 

[ssvegeta1010]

Wow, I may have to come down from Keene, NH to check this out.

 

[madogvt]

I'm in Vermont too, and will consider it.

 

[intogamer]

will you have this every year?

Hahahaha....I'm up in Essex Junction...aka "The Promised Land"

 

[Insane3D]

I don't really game much anymore, but at least Wilmington is not too far from southern NH if I wanted to.

 

[intogamer]

AT area?

 

[jwkuipers]

intogamer: We plan on hosting this event yearly. If you register you can make a AT clan/group. All clans larger than 5 members will be seated together.

ryanv12: Come to the forums. Last year we had a group from that area. You might be able to carpool.

 

[andy9o]

no tournament? no structured competetion at all? just a free for all lan?

 

[jwkuipers]

There are tournaments, but they have not been announced as we are drumming up sponsors for them. The tourneys will probably be, UT2004 1 on 1 DM, BF2 7 vs. 7, and CS:S 5 on 5. That?s not official yet, and is subject to change.
