- Signing up - The entry fee is €10 on the day and just so you all know you can signup on our site at http://games.dcu.ie/#signup3 If you have a account you should be signed up automatically otherwise just supply your email address and you're good to go.
- What to bring - This is a BYOPC LAN so you'll need a PC obviously, but you'll also need a extension cord, Cat-5 cable and snacks. We have cords and cables to spare but please bring your own in case of shortages.

- Tournaments - Polls are locked and your choices for tournaments are the following:

Glorious prizes for the winners and harsh beatings for the losers!
- What to play - We'll be playing plenty of games but just to name a few: Quake 3 Call of Duty 4 Dawn of War 2: Retribution Left 4 Dead 2 Defence of the Ancients Age Of Empires 2 Diablo 2
Of course I strongly suggest you fill your PC to the brim with games for the LAN, you never know just what to play at a LAN so its best to bring everything.
- Q-Con Trip - QCon is on the 24th - 26th of June and Games Soc's going to it. It's located in Belfast at Queens University. We have 20 places and most of the cost will be funded by Games Soc. Simply email us back if your interested in going. For more info on this great convention go to: http://www.q-con.org.uk/.
Thats it for this week, hope you're all thinking of me covered in honey on your bed, nekkid.
Yours Deliciously, Chairman Sir Saint John Percival Oisin Christopher Kelly Preston Esquire, Secretary DCU Games Society
