If there ever was a lan in the UK I would definatly go. To do it we need to get a few people together and set a date, then bombard the whole UK NS community. The organisers could proberbly make some money out it, as an incentive for the work the put in, e,g charge everyone £15.
ok so y arnt we organising a date now? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

6 of my clan members (including me) live in london. Im almost certain they would attend. Im willing to help out too. Whoever organises it, it will be a good investment, just charge a tenner to get in. London would be the best venue as its very central and alot of the players already live here.
Well.. if you goto the i-series (me <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> ) they host HUGE LAN parties at Newbury racecourse. Maybe if we check that place out and see if we could use that place for 2-3 days.
No.. it's not in horse stables.. it's a BIG building <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Not far from Heathrow <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
:/ I don't know about everyone else, but I can't be **** to go all the way there. I was thinking of renting out some rundown community hall in london..

My names Poon from Gameon we have hosted 55 lan events in the Midlands and the south, i couldnt help but notice your interest at a NS LAN event and thought we might be able to help out.
The owner of Gameon has been an avid NS fan since release and we have wanted to incorporate it into our LAN's for quite some time but we have had problems getting hold of NS clans to attend for us to run a tournament.
What we would like to do is invite 4 NS clans of 6 free of charge to our next event which is going forward on the 27th to the 30th of august and is being held in Uttoxetor in the Midlands and also invite the UK NS development team to the event who can show everyone there what their MOD's all about.
So can any clan leaders interested in the event and members of the development team please E-Mail me at poon@gameon.co.uk we can work out the details and also be sure to check up on the LAN information at www.gameon.co.uk

The reason some of us are so against London is because....
<i>If you don't live there, it's a goddamn NIGHTMARE as a location</i>.
It's decentralised, hard to navigate, expensive, timeconsuming to reach and a PITA to drive around. Yes, a large number of players live there, but a larger number don't. I live in Manchester, and I wouldn't want it held here either, because it'd be hard for you Southerners to reach.
So please, think about everyone else for navigation purposes, okay?
Well every 2 months my local LAN centre runs great all night LAN partys.. Shame Eastbourne is located in such an unfair place for people from the North to come.
I'm sure i could get the LAN to privatley let us use it..
If you people are deciding on where to have a LAN game, you should have a poll based on where they live or the closest city. I am from Vancouver, Canada, so you have to excuse me for not coming.
OH YEAH!!! Do you ppl still have that tea time thingy?
Anyway.. i just finished a 30 player NS LAN in Brighton. It bloody pwnd. Hopefully they'll do a bigger one in a few months <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Basically, Midlands/Lower North are the fairest/most likely. Nottingham, Birmingham, etc. Quite accessible, not a nightmare to drive around, and well provisioned Network centre wise.
