I'm going to say this again just in case I missed anyone. Intel sponsors this event, they send prizes to us that we raffle off with raffle tickets you are given when your buy your ticket and that you can purchase right before the raffle itself. Intel decides on what prizes and the number of them to actually send to us by how many people are PAID ...not on the number of people just signed up, BUT ACTUALLY PAID :). Prizes CAN range anywhere from cpu fans to top of the line computer cases even i7 extremes and SSD's.

SO IF YOU KNOW YOU ARE GOING FOR SURE, SIGN UP AND PAY FOR YOUR SEAT ASAP!

If you DO NOT have a team or need a few more for yours that WILL be taken care of dont worry :)

I believe you man lol PEOPLE ARE JUST LAZY :/

bump

Try to get signed up ASAP guys. Intel will be checking numbers in the next few weeks :)

Tournaments: While you can see all sorts of games being played at Atlanta LANFest events, each year we pick three popular games to serve as our main tournaments. These tournaments will be run in a more competitive format than the rest of the LAN, and the winning teams will be presented with awesome custom-made trophies during the huge raffle near the end of the LAN. This years tournaments are:

In addition to these main tournaments, we will also be holding numerous other contests and events during the LAN, that anybody can participate in.

If anyone hasnt signed up because they are worried about not alot of people actually showing to the LAN. We always get about 20-30 at the door. If the LAN was tomorrow and right now we have 87 signed up, we would expect atleast 110.

Were expecting anywhere from 130 atleast once the venue date rolls around.

So get signed up guys and choose your seat :)

Trophies done. They look great, unique and professional.
YOU CAN GET A REFUND, IF YOU CANT MAKE IT.

So if you are planning on it just pay and pick your seat ASAP

Intel looks a few weeks out to see prereg numbers so they can decide how many what type of prizes to send. 10 people could LITERALLY make the difference between Intel sending one more i7 or SSD.

So again get signed up and and payed ASAP!

Thanks guys!

If you guys are planning on going, get paid up ASAP! You can always get a refund if your plans change.

Both will be Bo3 finals no matter what

Ill only consider the outcome if we get a good number of votes. Otherwise we can figure all that out at the event itself :)

Glad to see alot of you coming back out. Was alot of fun last time, and great meeting all of you!

Hey guys. I'm one of the Admins for LANfest and was just letting you guys know, Intel checks for prereg numbers about a month or so BEFORE the actual event date to see the appropriate amount of prizes to send.

In a nutshell. The more people that get signed up ASAP pretty much guarantees ALOT more and BETTER prizes. (ie Computer cases, motherboards, mouses, keyboards, processors, SSD's)

SO try to get your plans worked out ASAP and get signed up as soon as you can!

Thanks guys!
