Sup?
Hope you all had a great LAN! Once again your feedback is invaluable so we know how to improve for our next event which is already in deep planning for January 17-18th next year!
So how did we go?
Awesome. We sold out almost every seat! A big shout to the guys from FragFest who came down and LANned with us right till the end! Hawks supporters were also in luck with their glorious win over the Cats as we watched the Grand Final on the projector.
When's the next Respawn?
January 17th-18th 2009. Mark this one in the calendars! We'll be sure to let you know when registrations are open. Be warned that unregistered players will be charged $30 at the door!
What's the deal with that anyway?
Well, glad that we pretend that you asked! Expect the biggest Respawn LAN ever with more prizes, competitions and general mayhem. We'll do a few things differently, like run the Flatout 2 competition on the latest version and draw a door prize on the Saturday night.
So who won what?
Door prizes: ThermalTake LANBOX: Evil Zero Footy Money Boxes: Curacao, Deadeye, WooKiEs_GuRL, Mio, Gyix Razer Keyboard (thanks to Centre Com): Mikeyn Curacao: Footy money box + empty cardboard box! (which he left behind..)
Competitions: Call Of Duty 4: MCDN who won $250 cash Flatout 2: oohms (again). Someone needs to beat this guy! He won a Razer mouse thanks to Centre Com.

HDD throwing: Z_Brutalis did the most damage to the PC and won a TT Xaser Bag for his efforts!
Well done to all competitors!
A big thanks to everyone who was involved. This includes the core admin team, the team leaders, the gophers and everybody who lent us a hand during the event.. and at pack-up when things are the most critical. We do notice this and this assistance is appreciated!
