It's LAN time...!

[Arseynimz]

Hey all,

So in the background of this fair site, we've been working away. It may look like a static site of just a forum, but changes and implementations are afoot, and we're trying our best to re-establish thew gaming communities in NZ with a home they can all congregate to - as big of a task as that may seem.

As a reminder, the 5 directors of Get Some Ltd are myself, Craigor, DV, osiRiS, and prolax, and we've all worked together for a decent amount of time to know how each other works, what our strengths are, and what our crossover is. I mainly look after the general project dealings, Craigor & DV look after all the servers hardware & base set ups, as well as the web sites, prolax does all the design and prettiness, as well as the site look and feel, and osiRiS makes sure the forums, and game servers are sorted.

I'm really pleased to finally be able to say that we're working alongside Digital NatioNZ and in conjunction with the September 28 and 29 expo we'll be hosting a LAN. This will be a combination of a pro competitive event, and a full social set up and will be at Vector Arena, overlooking the Digital NatioNZ and Gadget, Gizmos & Technology Show.

This has been announced today, and given the weekend just gone would have marked the typical time that we would have seen a major LAN event, it's party time for sure. We're really pleased to be able to be involved, and hopefully be ready to bring some gaming awesome back to these shores in a fully competitive event alongside a social atmosphere, but just as importantly, inside a fully tricked out expo! It's been three years since we ran our last event, and this next one is the revival of good things to come.


So, what next!?
Tickets for the show will be available next month, and although this is quite late in the piece for the LAN event, we're working on our side of things for registration and the likes to ensure we know who's going to come, and what games will be getting the most support.

We're hoping to update the site at the end of the month with some changes including a few customised bits & pieces. We hope you'll support both these changes, and the upcoming event which is only 10 weeks away, and will be all sorts of amazing at the same time.

Questions!?

Will probably head up from welly, so we can bunk together on a single mattress and conserve body heat.

As for games, I'd like:
- Battlefield 4
- Heroes of the Storm
- Hearthstone
- Starcraft 2
- Grid - or another aweseomesauce driving game. Trackmania?
- A fighting game of some description

[sgt_munter]

[Retardobot]

I'm keen for:

CS:GO (will be a good excuse to actually buy the game).
BF 4 (will be a good excuse to actually buy the game).

[Apostrophe Spacemonkey]

CS:GO would go down well.

[Lythieus]

Rii, I have long dreamed of you picking me up and taking me to a LAN. PS, we could make it an extra long weekend and Ingress on the way up, if you know what I mean...

[Speakman]
