Forgot to book Schoolies? Is it too expensive or do you think it’s just for retards? I’m thinking of hosting a LAN party primarily for school leavers. I reckon it’d be in the range of 50-70 people, I know about 15 who said they would come already. When: after the HSC, Somewhere around the 20th-30th of November. Where: Sydney, depends on the amount of people coming. Why: to let off steam and get to know others. I’d like the first night to be an all-nighter, no sleep, and then a few days of tournaments after that. Price would include security, hall hire, network and would depend on the amount of people and wether or not you’d want to go buy food. I’m guessing $15 without food. If I can be bothered, I’ll make merchandise(thinking shirts). The amount of people who reply to this post will affect whether or not I set it up as a business or do it just as a party. So please reply with haste and spread the word. Reply if you have ideas/suggestions/information as well. Suggestions can include suggestions for its name or volunteering to work! PS. Games played will depend on what people have/want. Suggest contact methods below too (recently formatted my HD, must install programs). |

Maybe you should research the cost of what it would cost first.
Because honestly, to get the gear, cabling, hall hire, security etc for several days would cost a fair frigging bit. Way more than the $1000 your thinking of charging for 60+ people. |

Girls is what i was hoping for. I know one who knows 5, she was vague on who would be coming. If it ur peadophilic urges that cause you to ask, then none. |

Don't forget to make sure the hall has enough power, don't want to go burning out that wiring. *cough*
Games depend on what people have.... so you don't plan on having any dedicated servers at all or you're gonna sit there for a few hours installing games on a server after people get there & tell you what they have? I think a safe bet would be cs:s and cod4, maybe some UT If it ur peadophilic urges that cause you to ask, then none. That's the most retarded thing I've ever read, you do realise that girls of legal age do exist right? I'd say you're the pedo there pal since under age girls are the first thing that popped into your mind. |

Aus gamers? No? Some people read these from something called the QGL Forum which stands for Queensland Gamers League, it's what ausgamers used to be and they're all set in their old ways. |

Being drunk for 20 hours of the day, every day, vomiting, abusing people you don't know, fighting, random hookups, catching STDs, drugs, txting, losing your phone...
Schoolies is a rite of passage. |

I didn't have accomodation for schoolies, i just paid $20 to catch the train, rocked in on other people's parties and crashed at my friends hotels instead.
If you didn't do it right, do it wrong instead, better then not doing it at all. |
