Look what I just found in a stack of papers I was rooting through!

This was an article in the Shippensburg U paper (the slate) prior to FITES very first lanparty!  Thought some of you may be interested in reading it!

Please just walk away. I don't want to have to stand here and say something so awesome that I'll have to remember it the rest of the day. Thank you!

UPDATED NEWS(02-10-01)
FITES is looking for a Linux Game Server Builder and Tournament Manager.  I am not familiar with Linux in the least, and have heard that Linux is a great OS for game servers.  If you are experienced and would like to help, please contact  Josh.  Be forewarned though, if you offer to help with this, you will be expected to support the server and the tournaments throughout the event.  We will need someone to organize the tournament brackets and to configure/start the games from the server.  You will not be eligible for prizes, but you will be heavily involved in the FITES future and success!  This is a very time consuming position, so please realize this before you volunteer.  Thank you!
We are still waiting word on the electrical information on the next FITES venue, so hang tight!


Hmm.....

no comment

edit: I might need a new title

.."Turns out, they knew about the solid bookings since September, and neglected to inform me of them.  So as of right now, we have not venue."  

Glad to see those liberal english classes worked so well for you.
