COD4 5v5, likely CAL rules
UT3 1v1, dunno if they are doing anything but a straight game.

  well they have a ton of food, the air conditioning is keping things cool,  and all those punkers from the gxl are here and setup a console gaming area.

 the generator blew 2 hours ago and they have just started to restore power.  otherwise pretty successful.

Yes, and thankfully they weren't on generator power so the consoles stayed up the 2-3 hours the tech needed for the generator.

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!

Power was out for 2-3 hours for all the gamers, the consoles were off of building power but the PC's were all running off a generator that wasnt big enough to meet demand.

Just as an FYI I am in charge of the generator (and all power stuff) for NorEaster and it wasn't a matter of the generator not being big enough it was a matter of the fuel filter getting clogged and the generator shutting itself off, stupid I know but thats what happened, this is the 6th time we have run an event off of a generator with 0 issues previously. We built our own distribution system for the event and have actauly never blown a breaker, the powerstrips always go first :P

BTW Thanks for attending hope to see some of you guys next year.

Isn't it always the strange unexpected things that give the largest headaches at LANS?  Anyhow, congrats on a great LAN from what it sounds.

Oh we have our share of meltdowns that are out of our control. I would love to make it to these large LANs happening right now... But wedding stuff comes first.
