Hey folks,

Just dropping you a friendly GamesSoc mail to announce plans for our End Of Summer BYOPC LAN Event. This event will be run over two days, Saturday September 16th through to Sunday the 17th. Saturday will kick off at between 1 and 2pm which will give you guys plenty of time to set up your rigs. The event will then continue on through the day and night until midday on Sunday.

Throughout the weekend we’ll be running a series of competitions in Quake 3, Counter Strike, Dawn Of War, Starcaft and a mystery game which will be announced on the day. Outside of the competitions we’ll also be playing the likes of Unreal Tournament 2004, Battlefield 1942/ Battlefield 2 and Day Of Defeat.

There will be prizes for the Top 3 players of the event with points being accrued over the various Tournaments in order to select the winner.

Entry for the event is €5 for members and sign up will take place in advance via the relevant thread on the forums, found here... http://games.redbrick.dcu.ie/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=5&t=1272 Just post there and we'll add you to our sign up sheet. As usual our Summer event is smaller than our semesterly events so bear in mind places will be limited.

More details will follow but this is just to make sure you guys know about it and are able to make the necessary arrangements.

We'd also like to remind you guys about the soon-to-be-ordered Games Soc hoodies. You can learn more about them on the forum thread found here, http://games.redbrick.dcu.ie/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=1&t=1269 Just follow the instructions to purchase your own!

As usual keep an eye on the site and forums for more info on our upcoming events. :)
