The calendar on the wall tells us that we're less than two weeks away from Respawn LAN v4! So we'd thought we'd give you an update on our developments so far.
So, competitions:
$750 CS:Source 5v5 - we're told that Livid and Wu (two of the top clans in the state) will NOT be attending this event! This is good news for previous clans who have attempted to compete in previous events.
$250 Warcraft III DOTA 5v5 first prize
$150 Warcraft III 1v1 first prize
DOOM 2 (using
zdaemon)
Quake III Instagib
Hard drive throwing
Console tournaments on the Wii and XBOX 360 consoles run by NGU.
Many door prizes including a top of the line DFI motherboard, a ThermalTake Mozart T Entertainment centre and other giveaways throughout the event!
Food:
We'll be running the usual BBQs throughout the event, cold cans of drink will be $1 each and all attendees of Respawn LAN v4 will receive a 10% discount at the Kingsbury McDonalds, which is about a 15-20 minute walking distance from the venue. We've also got some McDonalds food vouchers which will be given away throughout the event for odd competitions here and there.
Console Games:
NGU will be there in full force, running the console LAN along the side with XBOX, XBOX360 and Nintendo Wii consoles! They'll be running a few comps for us on these which all attendees are welcome to play. If you own such a console, space can be provided in their area for you to set it up, however, you do require a display device (TV, LCD etc) which can connect to your console.
More details will emerge over the next few days - watch this space!
