Registration Payments

PinguWaaWaa — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 20:44:31 +0000

Hi all,

Registrations are flowing in quite nicely, and so are your payments. However, we do ask that you use your gamer handle as a reference. At the moment there is a payment showing that we are unable to match to a registration. If you can tell us which account name it came from and how much the payment was, we will mark you as paid. If you don't do this, we are unable to confirm your spot and you will be denied access to the LAN. Please email jase@urbanlan.co.nz to advise us who you are.

So keep the registrations and payments coming! - At last count, we have 45 people registered for 55 possible spots, and only 25 of those have been confirmed.
Get in quick, or miss out! - We are NOT having door sales.

legal gaming I don't understand. Jokes I own most if not all of those, but yeah encourage easy lan games more. I pretty much agree with jase's list, need more RA3

Oh I know they don't have LAN. There should be enough people whom own the games though to warrant at least visiting the prospect of a game altogether.

my thinking exactly. although, my new case (cm690 11 advanced) has no window so not much point cold cathoding it up, might get the special window side panel though depending if i can find it and then ill make a laser show

lucky that shot doesnt show up scratches or weird green stuff aye aaron

I'm thinking about doing a mod on my old P.O.S Xcase Dracula... throwing up some extra spaces for fans, fan filters, etc. It's all money and time though

Might just chuck some cold cathodes in my main box and pretend like I've modded it.

Radar has 3x 1.5TB and 2x 2TB drives at the moment
The drives aren't full though, share is sitting just over 3.5TB. So a baby by comparison to others

Being Linux it also has no DC++ client

after probably a years debate with a guy in auckland, and after alot of thought. ive decided to change my name from phoenix to Paleo-Phoenix (it was gonna be leviathan, but jase helped me with a better solution)

for those of you who don't know me from my previous alias, ill provide a little break down of information

- my names Aaron, im 22, male and i live in hamilton nz
- currently i have 3 pc's 1 desktop, 1 laptop, 1 media center, soon to add a 4th- a server.
- ive attended pretty much most of the lans since urbanlans launch, mainly missing the others cos i was stuck in a ward in hospital >.<
- i play wow (don't beat me!), blur, trackmania, cs, and probably starcraft 2 when i get.
- i also like rts games like AOE and C&C

thats all i can think of, hope to see you guys at the lan!

- Aaron

Im liking the game ideas PinguWaaWaa has put forth
Red Faction Guerilla sounds like it could be interesting should try it out first though
I wouldnt mind some F.E.A.R Coop Warfare got a copy paste of it, if you want more info on it just ask
Mount & Blade Warband is also a possible though i remember others had probs with the multiplayer
Im also looking into LAN options for Flatout Ultimate Carnage (will look soon cbf atm)

Agree with all of Pingu's games, would add in Men of War, and a couple of other RTS games. Demigod was good last time. MW2, i know heaps dont have this, but would be fun to have a private match with those of us that have it (legit of course)

open to Red Faction (Guerrilla) too but i doubt many others will be.
