-- Once again this year we shall be hosting our 48 Hour LAN in DCU! We shall be running it from the 22nd of April at 6pm to the 24th at 6pm.
For those unaware, our LAN comprises of everyone bringing their PCs and Laptops to DCU and playing games, entering in tournaments and trying to stay awake for 48 Hours straight! (Don't worry you can go home to sleep and come back at anytime during the event. We will also have a special sleeping area so you can bring a pillow and blanket or sleeping bag or whatever in case travel is inconvenient for you.)
And for those who don't have a PC or Laptop or can't bring their own no worries we shall be bringing our Console and Trad games to the event as well so there is something for everyone to enjoy and to give the PC players a break every once in a while.
Entry to the LAN is €25 and that includes entry into any and all tournaments we will be running during the event for which all will have prizes!
We haven't decided the tournaments or their prizes yet however we have been sponsored by Logitech with them donating TWO G910 Orion Spectrum mechanical gaming keyboards and TWO G502 Proteus Core Tunable Gaming mice (which retail at €189 and €75 each respectively)
