Its my First RESPAWN LAN this weekend (Yay), does anyone have any suggestions of what to bring, apart from the obvious. Just don't want to leave anything out and look like a NooB!

All jokes aside heres a pretty standard list for any LAN party that you go to...

- Your computer (no shit)
- Cables (power, display, wireless adapters, etc)
- Storage (Hard Drive (Internal or external))
- Power Board (You know, that thing with all the sockets to plug stuff into.)
- Ethernet Cable (Mine is 20 meters smile.gif )
- A Pillow or cushion. (Cos sitting on your ass hurts after a while)
- Food (even though there are things on sale it's always nice to have a sandwich ready.)


Not Allowed...

- Speakers (How would you like it if the person next to you blasted Beiber all night long?)
- Illegal/Illicit Items (This includes drugs, child porn, weapons, etc...)
- Basically anything that is illegal outside, is illegal inside.

I'd quite like that actually.

I think I shall suggest this as music. Even though that 3minute techno loop played last lan will get jealous.

5m usually does the trick for me... however if you need one longer, you could ask your mates, or they always have a store set up that sells basic PC parts?

Lol considering that i bought my 20 meter for just $16, and the place i get it from has combinations of 5m = $5 and 10m = $9. that would be a good idea, so good i could cover my ticket costs smile.gif

Lots of drinks too, nothing worse than running out of water or other drinks.
Also, bring a bit of money. Just in case you feel like pizza when they do the run or some snacks from the shop.
