Yes, you need your own account. And it will be in the same room, so you'll have to use team chat, or headphones/mic with the mic volume jacked up so you can whisper.
Perfect Faust, and thanks for talking to him. Sorry I couldn't.
12-12 sounds great. I should add that we also need to pay an additional $15 for the server, but thats $16 per person if we get 15 people, so no worries.
Apparantly there is a Pizza/Donair shop literally next door to the place, with $1 slices, so food isn't a problem. There are also corner stores and a Domino's where we can get cheap pizzas en masse.
So now the only thing we need is an attendance list. Remeber, final list by March 19th, that's next Saturday.
List is currently at: 1 definate 1 maybe
That's myself and my friend.
All yes's and nos before this post will be disregarded, please repost, for clarity.
i say we do this thing if definates + 0.5*maybes = 14 or more
oh and after we all confirm, i guess someone should send out reminders by pm just before so no one forgets <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I *may* have more, but I doubt it, and they are pretty much ns n00bs.
And, I may also be able to give a ride to one person who lives on the north shore, I have to check something, more on whether I can or not tomorrow.
Note to swiftspear and all others: Proposed date of lan is on <b>March. 26</b>. I have to know who/how many people are going by <i>march 18th</i>, and call the internet cafe owner the next to let him know.
Another note: Could we all try to bring headphones? this would significantly cut down on the noise factor? That, and i'm sure if you bring headphones, the sound quality is definitly going to be above par compared to what is provided at an internet cafe anyway.
*groan* I am currently groveling with my management to get the 26th off, I thought I would be in the clear, but then i'm told others have booked that day off already. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

my friend ray has confirmed, but he cannot stay for the whole day, probably only a few hours. can he just pay hourly rates? or does he have to pay the $15 in advance?

My parents decided to spring on me this morning the fact that we're hosting easter dinner on the 26th, even though they had cleared that date with me last week... Needless to say, I have no choice but to back out.
i think april is like a few days before finals for people in post-secondary. with finals usually worth 60-90% of your term grade, i don't think people will want to play NS then...

Sigh...
Bring me back some good stories.
How does everyone feel about a date change?
I propose the saturday after, which is <b>April 2nd</b>. Does this still fall under 'spring break' for those who go to post-secondary instituions?
