Prepayment should be in the form of PAYPAL, CASH or CHECK. I will need the prepayment to make sure we have the attendance numbers to pay for the hall...

Full refunds will be offered if something were to happen and the event not take place. Also, if we have the attendance numbers to cover the hall, then you can get your moneyback if you don't show.

Will bring server and will also see about having it do autoDNS name to your lan party manager.

Not sure if it will work when you do have internet connectivity..

BTW, did you want me to help you scout out the location for connecting to the net?

Getting STEAM to work in off line mode.

Everyone - Please read and ask questions if necessary. Please click on the link below and follow the instructions before shutting down your pc prior to packing it up. It looks like the internet connection will be iffy so you really want to be prepared to play off line.

I’m sorry to take so long to get this out. I wanted to say “THANKS!” to everyone who showed up to game and to all those who helped out. We couldn’t have done it with out you!

Thanks to The Heavy Machine guys who braved the weather to head on over to our party. Well, heading over wasn’t the hard part, it was the heading back in the snow that was the tricky part. We tried to get them to crash for the night…maybe next time. http://www.7hmgaming.com

Thanks to the NJLP regulars…too many to list…I am really glad you could make it, and I’m glad you had a good time!

Thanks to CorpusD for the excellent work on the servers…and THE NETWORK!!! Yeaaaa Corpus!!!!

Thanks to Tome for all the work getting things organized, and for taking the Sunday 8:00am shift! Man I needed some sleep! Also, it was TOME who brought and scheduled most of the board games.

Thanks goes to NJLPs new tabletop gaming friend NORM! (Everyone…”N O R M !”) Norm was the guy who brought the rest of the board games! Hopefully we’ll see NORM at “Ubercon V”, or maybe at one of his gaming parties!

Thanks to HOUSE who came to play Quake III, and had to install the server! Sorry about that…

I have to say playing Q3 was my highlight of the weekend. I forgot how much fun it was to just run and shoot! And now that we have a fully config’d server, we’ll have it at all of our parties. THANKS HOUSE!

And again, thanks to “The Brown Bag Blues Band” for providing the entertainment for the weekend.

Thanks to the guys at the http://www.nerdclub.net for the use of their Advanced Lan Party Manager.

And Last but not least…Thanks to the sponsors!
Ubercon! http://www.ubercon.com
Zboard! http://www.zboard.com
CaseAce! http://www.geargrip.com
nVidia! http://www.nvidia.com
Bawls http://www.bawls.com (And they did come through. I will pick up the award and I’ll get it to Nill somehow.)
And of course, our LOCAL sponsor http://www.bigbruin.com ! I hope everyone has gone there and made a few posts! And if you won something from BB, make sure you go and post a thank you!

If you have pictures from the party, please send me a zip or a link so I can put them on the site.

The next events we have on the calendar are CorpusD’s party (2/26), followed by UBERCON (3/11-3/13), and of course THM 6.0 (3/25). I hope to see you there!
