any good locations for lan parties in darwin
for less than 20 ppl, like with a/c, tables, sufficient power etc, without costing
fifteen billion dollars for pretend air
conditioning power consumption??

Mostly community centres, the Darwin Public Library, Its hard to find the right location . just ask Layoric [Image: http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/smile.gif] or you could go all out and try the Bigger Hotels around darwin ..

You could try the uni dorms they are free, and comfortably hold 20 people.

sounds good, but to use uni rooms for free you have to associate a club with the student onion, and they have some seriously average rules and requirements which are more work than its worth.

we've been having regular lans for a while now, maximum of 15 ppl and rising, but so far all we've done is morning till evening.
But we're considering an all nighter. Don't quite have the numbers to keep a decent attendance for a whole weekend :P
we're trying to start a club with the student union now, but its gonna take ages cos they only approve clubs on the 14th!!!
been busting our balls trying to find a place for this weekend, but we're screwed im afraid.

bluddy student union, they r sticking with the "0 an hour for a/c!!!
if you work this out with 14c per kWh, this means they are running a 97 hp air conditioner
who needs a fridge with that running????

THat's a pretty good price actually... If there's no other costs involved, that'd be an ideal location! ^O^

Why not align with one of the existing LAN's that r held every month or so.
Or is this supposed to be a exclusive club.

if we manage to get a uni club started, it gets all "equal opportunity" cos we arnt allowed to put a "no wankers" clause in the constitution. AND we are allowed to have 20% non student membership, so we can probably have some octa4 gamers join :P
unfortunately we like to keep the membership with a skill level somewhere along the lines of a blind donkey with one leg.
I forget why i started writing this... @:P

because they never have lans when we want em [Image: http://bbs.gamers.octa4.net.au/smile.gif]
this way we can organise them around our study timetable and when its convenient for us. and it doesnt cost us any money except for food and drinks
