After riding high on the success of N.W.C #1 (some say the Best Darwin LAN to date (e.g Me + Tsu)).
It has come to my attention, a few people got into the LAN with out paying, this is very disturbing to hear, (I know thirty eight of you guys). It also turns out these people have been bragging to their friends, “We went to N.W.C and it didn’t cost us a cent” well it costs me and the other Admins in the end. We tried our best to bring you a perfect LAN, after LAN rights success. Hearing about what you individuals said troubled me, all the effort us Admins go through to organise venues, tables, switches, free tech support etc etc,. All for you, out of our Free time… apparently means nothing to some of you gamers, in the end it will affect you guys. E.g: no more Organised LANs.
The reason most of you enjoyed the LAN, at the Student Lounge was a favourite venue and the equipment we had, the Dedicated servers, 10/100 switches, etc., all was possible with tn1s contributions.
There were plans to hold N.W.C #2 within 4 weeks, but those plans have been put on
Hold, or until Tsunami and I decide when we will hold the next LAN event. Sorry to the honest people out there, but this is a serious issue and needs to be addressed.
If and when the next N.W.C LAN event will be held there will be tight security, no one is to set up unless the Admins are awake, or you show a bit of leg. Then you may set-up. The N.W.C Admins will be discussing this and other issues (e.g Penthouse issue #745) at our next meeting, if you have any issues you would like us to discuss, please mail me.

In short, $0.00 for roughly 9-12 hours of LANing on a 100mbit network, sitting with your friends/flam, food and air delivered. Plus, foul mouthed un-friendly support from the Admin Guys, ready to tell you to get fucked at a moments notice..
Is that too much to ask
p.s everyone who didn't pay the entrance fee at this lan will be forced to pay 10 times the fee at the next lan. I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!!
