Another note:

No seating chart?
Title: Re: FITES 150+ Registration open!
Post by: Agent4054 on December 03, 2008, 03:28:55 PM
Looks like Tibs didn't get the memo. When you sign up and pay, you'll get a registration key in an email with a link to claim your seat.
Title: Re: FITES 150+ Registration open!
Post by: Mr.Tibbs on December 03, 2008, 03:57:22 PM
No I read that it is just you can't see the seating chart if you haven't paid. You guys used to have it so people could see where others are sitting before hand.

I would also like to know who is sitting where.  I kind of want to sit next to some friends or something.

Is there going to be internets at the 150?  I remember this place giving us Crap about getting internet last time..

If not I guess we have to make sure everyone knows how to play all their steam games in offline mode!

If I remember correctly we should have limited internet during gaming times and unrestricted internet at night.  Last time we were there I think Sully came through for us to get the net on.

Hurm... I think we had issues with the internet last time we were at this place, I only remember because of all the issues we were having with CS:S.  The tourny was getting ready to start and a lot of people couldn't get CS:S running.

Decepticon is right there is a sticky about it, but I was just wondering if we would have the same issues, so everyone could be prepared for this if need be, in advance.

The internet at this place last time sucked big ones. HOWEVER....I am working on remedying that situation and things are looking good so far.

Of course then we had people bitching about having no internet because they couldn't check their e-mail. God forbid you don't have interwebs for 2-3 days.

Ah yes. The stages of interwebs withdraw...Starting with slight tremors then going to full blown convulsion, hallucinations and radical mood swings. Best not mess with someone who doesn't get their daily input of WoW, we may have riots!

WoW was one of the things we blocked during the day along with torrents.  And yes I do remember people complaining about us blocking WoW during the LAN.

setup a laptop or a crappy pc with full access to the internet and either charge or not charge for people to use it for 10minutes at a time.  Emergency use type thing.

No offense to anyone here but we have about 80 people registered. But only like 15 confirmed and 14 seats saved. I am just wondering what people are waiting on personally.
Title: Re: FITES 150+ Registration open!
Post by: decepticon on December 05, 2008, 01:52:12 PM
I know KOS registered 50 people, I think they are waiting to collect the money from their group.

The LAN is about 2 months off. Confirming a $35 payment for a 2-3 day event 2 months from now might seem hasty to people with a busy life. It is completely understandable.

KOS I can understand. When you bring that many people you have to have all your ducks; in this case nerds all in a row.

As a KoS member and an attendee last year, we fill seats.  Some people might have a problem with so many of one clan but for a lot of us it is a good chance to see everyone.  Last year's 150 was my first FITES lan and a chance to meet all the people KoS and non-KoS a like that I have gamed with.  It gives members that we have down south and way up north a month or so after the start of registration to not have to worry about getting there money in on their seat to make sure they have it.  I'm sure no one was meaning anything about what they said... Tibs.... But seriously does it really matter?

Edit- When I say Tibs I just mean it to start crap.

Is this at the same hotel as the last big one? Is there a discount again for staying at the hotel?
Title: Re: FITES 150+ Registration open!
Post by: Agent4054 on December 13, 2008, 06:07:59 PM
Different hotel than last time. This is the Holiday Inn in Mechanicsburg where we had our first big LAN. It's the downstairs room with those crazy mirrored columns... And I can't comment on a hotel discount on the grounds that I don't know the answer.
Title: Re: FITES 150+ Registration open!
Post by: Mr.Tibbs on December 13, 2008, 07:26:59 PM
Keep us posted on that. I might consider getting a room.
Title: Re: FITES 150+ Registration open!
Post by: The Shoctor on December 14, 2008, 01:07:07 AM
As far as a discount. I don't believe so. I will try to ask the hotel, but they met us in a lot of ways this time. One time we had to fill a block of rooms. One time we had to pay a food fee... I think we have met at a good ground. No food fee. No rooms to fill. And beverages are ok, but food is not. We have to meet their rules. I know this was a post about room rates, but I am just giving you some background.
