There has GOT to be someone in Nebraska that knows what the internet is... seriously...there aren't ever any LAN parties around here other than in Omaha, which I dont even want to TRY to find my way around. Let me know if you're from Lincoln or somewhere near Seward! (Highly.. .highly... doubt it)

Yea, I live in Lincoln, we'll be hosting a lan at the very start of the summer. Looking for people, so far I have about 40-50 people confirmed, still looking for a place to host. If you're interested in joining up, entry fee is gonna be between $2-$5, food = free, drink = free. More info will be comming as the summer approaches.

So far I have at least 40 interested parties for this LAN, and I have sufficient funding to make it...very nice =)
Our switches/routing equipment will be borrowed from a cisco warehouse in omaha a friend works at, he has permission to take them.
Food and drinks will be provided free of charge - the cover charge of course.
Cover charge of $5-$10(undecided so far). That covers 48 hours of straight lan play, setup would be the first 6 hours before the lan. You can bring one guest, they get in at $2, but they can't have a computer.
As far as property wise, we're looking at renting a warehouse or something from a friend of mine for a few days, should get it cheap, this is our only setback really heh.
Any other ideas, etc? This is all still in plannning, and far from totally done. If this all works out as I think it will, this will probably become a regular thing every few months here for us.
Thats all for now, questions comments directed to this thread or travis@travisbsd.org Thanks!

Alright! Lincoln is the perfect place for me! 20 min away is all, and I go there frequently anyways. I've never been to a LAN party, mostly because I've only seen them around here in Omaha on a frequent basis, and the Doane College one in Crete every year or so. I'm looking forward to this, count me in!

He's in my Psychology class :o He was in my pre-cal one too but I dropped it.
I hear he's a great wrestler but I never go to any of the wrestling things.
Do you know who Tim Larsen is? He's a wrestler too. I hate that kid so much. He's such a tard.
And when you figure out a date on the LAN let me know...I'd need a week in advance if I were to go.

Sweeeet...Im just waiting to know when this will all go down. Im actually willing to chip in more than just the cover charge at the door if we need some more funding to get this off the ground. Monthly type thing would be awsome.
I actually got an Email from some local scottsbluff LAN'ers via this thread. I wonder if they would be game for smashing into the mustang and heading up.

Do you own Grandpa Johns now or something? I'll for sure be at the party if I'm not busy.. I hope its in EARLY june because late june is when I'm busy... later

Yeah, DaGeeks is run at the farm. Its in the old creamery. We have 3 dsl lines and we have a nice shop. We had an Idea. Since the lan will be 3 days we have alot of space out here for sleep what about makeing a little camping area. :)
d03boy
04-05-2004, 08:05 PM
this sounds awesome.. might as well hook up a wireless router so people like me with laptops can surf the net and stuff from the camping area haha
How many people do you know of, would come to it? I promise I will be there as long as i havn't already made any important plans (like going to mexico or kansas city mid june)

We already have wireless set up so you can most likely get it at the camp area. We set a date today. Not sure on the times yet but the dates are. June 11th - the 13th. Ive ran many lans, so we are looking at sponsors like ThermalTake, Bawls, and Nvidia usually throws out some shwag.
d03boy
04-06-2004, 05:56 PM
Those dates sound just about perfect... I think i leave to go somewhere on the 14th, but I'll have to triple check my schedule. I'm thrilled...
