I don’t know about you all, but I am busy suffering from withdrawal symptoms due to the lack of a proper LAN.
As such, without any further ado, let’s get down to business. 
I am keen to arrange my second LAN
for 2010 for the weekend of the 6th of May. 
I trust that this is sufficient notification for those prospective LAN’ners to mentally prepare those around them for yet another dramatic event. 
For the benefit of those that have never participated in a LAN at Norita, this is more or less how it goes down:
sycho:1. We start anything from 20:00 the Friday evening with several “reality-constrained-individuals” only joining the Saturday morning. The network will be up ‘til the last man goes home.
2. Bring your own computer; any computer will do as long as it has a NIC in it and have some form of graphics card. If you don’t have a computer, fear not I have a couple of spares that can be pressed into service. If you need a new computer, let me know and I can provide you with a quote…
3. Group sanity suggests that we stick to headsets only, full range speakers are not a good idea at a LAN.
4. Bring whatever you plan to consume. I’ll show you where the fridge, ice and glasses are, you help yourself. If there are no veggies amongst us, I was thinking to braai the Saturday evening. There is a SPAR and Checkers very close by in case anyone needs to go for refills.
5. I have enough sleeping space for those that do need to “meditate” a little bit. Gamers don’t sleep…
6. Reality-constrained-individuals that plan to go straight from the LAN back to reality should bring their own toothbrush…
7. Everyone should bring their own deodorant
8. A swimming pool is provided; bring your own towel.
9. If you have a good game that you think we should play, then bring it with. The games played are a very simple matter of democracy if you can convince other people to play your preferred game, then that game will be played.
10. I will not stop anybody from copying whatever, bring enough hard drives.
11. We tend to be around 8 regulars, but I can cater for around 25 people with minimum issues and around 40 with some additional logistics. I just need to know as soon as possible who will be joining, and how many people will be coming.
12. Any other questions (and RSVP) can be send to
13. Internet access will again be available.
So, in summary:
Date: 7th and 8th of May 2010.
Time: Starting the 7th May at 20:00, and ending when the last person leaves on Sunday.
Place: Norita 13, Rosendal, Durbanvile, Cape Town, South Africa, Planet Earth. See directions below
Games: Anything / Everything.
Food: Bring whatever you plan to consume. We could club together on Saturday and go and buy meat for a braai.
