Hey Guys,

Just you let you know our registration closes tomorrow Thursday August 19th at 1PM. You can register here.

We have our tentative schedule of events here.
And we have the list of games we will be playing in Pittco Roulette here. Pittco Roulette is a series of organized competitions where the winners get 16oz cans of Bawls.

This LAN will be small, but so far we have ~60 pre-reg'd and we have a ton of stuff planned so it's going to be a blast. Hope to see some FITES attendees!

(p.s. Alex, we are willing to share resources like server configs and stuff, just hit us up on forums or email)
