[Announce-gamesoc] Lab Gaming starts tomorrow! 6pm - C204

by David Connolly

Hello members, Make sure you're sitting securely in your seats. I'm extremely proud to announce that after a long haul and lots of stress, we finally have CSD approved Lab Gaming! This means that we have a lab in Henry Grattan, C204, that we can game in on a weekly basis. The machines are 3GHz Pentium 4s, 1gig of RAM, and Intel Extreme graphics on 17inch LCD screens. Perfect for now. We have our own dedicated GamesSoc image we can play on, so when you sit down to play, everything instantly works. No setting up steam, no copying files. It's all go. So without further ado, tomorrow night we will be holding our first semi-official event. All members of GamesSoc are being invited to attend, on a first-come first-get-a-pc basis. Pop along to C204 tomorrow evening at 6pm where we will be playing CS until 9pm. We would encourage as many as possible to show up so we can see what the demand is like for future events, and also to get feedback from you guys as to what you'd like to see at the upcoming events. You guys might want to bring along your own mice and pads, currently the lab only has ball mice. Headphones would also be extremely helpful. Oh, and no food/drink - this is a CSD lab which we must repsect. Thursday 1st December, 6pm, C204. See you there :) - David Connolly Chairperson, DCU Games Society ps. Newbies: C204 is located on the second floor of Henry Grattan. We'll stick some GamesSoc posters on the door.

[Announce-gamesoc] BYOPC LAN, Halo 2 and Console afternoons

by DCU Games Society

Hey everyone, Big thanks to everyone who came to the BYOPC LAN this weekend, all went smoothly and the fragging was mighty. Next semester's LAN will be bigger and better, don't miss it! Unfortunately due to room and projector booking mishaps, we've had to postpone the Halo 2 tournament a second time. It's now happening Wednesday 16th, 2-5pm, Seminar room. For the same room and projector booking reasons, we won't be having a console afternoon this week either. :( Apologies for screwing up the bookings for stuff, we promise things will return to normal soon. ;) -- DCU Gaming Society. http://games.redbrick.dcu.ie/forums mail games(a)redbrick.dcu.ie for more information

by DCU Games Society

Hi everyone, Apologies about the rediculously late notice. The Halo 2 tournament scheduled for today at 2 has had to be postponed until next Tuesday, 8th November, between 3pm and 6pm in the seminar room. On a more positive note, the BYOPC LAN party is going ahead this weekend, starting Saturday at midday, in the venue in the hub. If you haven't signed up yet, we'll have a table in the Street (Henry Grattan) today from 1-2, and tomorrow from 11-2. It's just five euro, and there are prizes for the tournaments in Counter-Strike, Quake 3 and one other game, yet to be decided. Thanks. -- DCU Gaming Society. http://games.redbrick.dcu.ie/forums mail games(a)redbrick.dcu.ie for more information
