+ PC
+ Extension cord
+ Cat-5 cable

Dont worry if your favourite game doesn't win the tournament poll because
they'll all be there and i'm sure we'll have plenty of time to rack up a
few matches in all of them. Other then the game listed in those polls we
have plenty more:
- Counter Strike Source/1.6
- Dawn of War Dark Crusade & DoW 2
- Battlefield: Bad company 2
- League of Legend & Heroes of Newearth
- Starcraft 1 & 2
- Left 4 Dead 1 & 2
- Company of Heroes
- Monday Night Combat
- Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory
- Diablo II
and a lot more that I cant list without making this email a two-parter.
Dont forget that we'll have the consoles set up with us and tables for any
RPGs, wargaming and board games since the storeroom is below the venue.
I just want to send out a thanks to all members who have taken part in the
survey so far. It's going to be a great help for the new year. If you
haven't taken the survey yet and want to just go to

First off, we have a survey. It's simply 13 questions that can help us
determine the areas we need to focus on and improve as well as find out
our strong points and make sure we dont change them.
