The problem with that is, Miniwalks spends hours planning the power with slov. If we start adding applicances it can throw the delicate balance off and cause more power to be used elsewhere. So hence Zardoz's straight out "NO".

Just imagine that.

Everyone goes 'z0mg! generator lol!'. And all of a sudden, the entire grass area out the back of the hall is filled with small generators and the doorway has a 50cm thick layer of extension cables running through it just to power everyone's personal kettle and toaster....

Epic.

Hrm. Now there's an idea. Let's power respawn off solar!

I wonder how big the solar farm would have to be.

Actually.. fuck that. What are we gonna do at night? =(

I realise this, but that means a few things.
The most expensive one being we need to essentially double our solar panel array's size to make up for the power used during the night, and then we need huge amounts of SLA (or even just LA) batteries to store the charge, which sort of defeats the purpose of using solar panels if we're only going to use it for one night, 'cos we may as well just charge all the batteries up from mains over the lead up to Respawn, and then use them instead of charging using the extra solar panels that we put in especially for charging the batteries.

Or we could set something on fire during the night to power said solar panels. Let's make it a rule... if you trip out the power by plugging in a kettle or the like, you get to be the next sacrificial lamb. Your PC goes with you. If you have a car that's got flammable stuff, so does it. tongue.gif

Fuckit. Let's go NUCLEAR. It sounds easier. (Dibs on not dealing with the waste after the LAN).

Nuclear, I like it.
I'm sure ne0n's monster rig will be able to absorb the leftover waste into its psu.
