Spring 2011 – Events

We have an event schedule confirmed for this term. It’s going to be a quiet term, a bunch of people are busy with school work and the Spring term is normally quiet anyway. Enough excuses though, here are the events that we have planned:

• May 28th – LAN Event
• June 11th – Fighting Games Tournament (a.k.a. Bison Tournament)
• July 13th – Game On
• July 27th – LAN Event

We’re running the Fighting Games Tournament in association with Bison’s Auto Shop, a KW based group that plays fighting games. Specific information about that event can be found on the shoryuken.com forums. Other than that, we’ll be running everything as normal.

LAN Event – Saturday May 28th, 11am-midnight, RCH307

We’re having a LAN event in RCH 307 on Saturday May 28th. It’ll run from 11am until midnight, which I’m sure is a surprise if you’ve read the title of this article.

We’ll be running Team Fortress 2, Starcraft II, League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth, DotA, Left 4 Dead 2, (maybe Brink) and more! Be sure to bring your own computer and your own ethernet cable to connect to our setup. We’ll have a wireless access point available, but connecting with an ethernet cable is much cooler. We might setup a Minecraft server to collaboratively build something if we get enough people interested.

Food (pizza) will be brought in at 12:30pm and 6:30pm, so have some spare change around so you can buy food without going out places. Types of money we take: cash. Pop will be available for $0.50/can since we’ve found that water fountains aren’t always convenient enough.

For more information please see our LAN page if you need more information but don’t want to ask. If you’ve been to one of our LANs before (or even a different LAN) it’s likely the same deal.

May 28: LAN

We’re hosting a LAN event in RCH 307, it’ll run from 11am until midnight.

Bring your own ethernet cable and some money for food, should be a fun time. If not, you can at least play some video games.
