Dukey

I had a burger this weekend it wasn't the best and was fairly dry, but I was hungover, the chips were also cold, both were not particularly enjoyable. But I had some nicer chips which I stole from Domuk. They were good. But the burger felt fairly cheap meat. I don't mind the burger options as long as they're cooked nicely. I was do hungry that I was gonna eat it regardless. But it made sure I didn't come back for the rest of the weekend. Like the_joy says we have on every single occasion cooked food more successfully than the KCC and if wanted to sell food out the back of the dreadfort we would. We also do a very successful BBQ every Lan And I do top quality Lanwiches when I can be bothered to bring the ingredients which is all but 2 events these days. Yeah the KCC food still needs a little work.

now the dust has settled and sound thinking has returned it time for old faithful to breath its casting breath on summer Lan. The Good. staff were awesome and friendly as per usual, i can't remember even casting a negative thought about any of them, old or new this event. 404 behaviour being overall very good. clean and tidy event hall. GT racing turning up and doing a good job as exhibitors, looking like they were having fun too. i want to see more of this please. more exhibitors pub quiz had a good mix of questions, though i actually didn't answer 1 on my own. quieter event in terms of the cs:go scream boy, only one screeee made me jump this time. toilets all had loo roll. security had a largely hands off approach which i prefer the figure skating championship had me captivated at one point. the venue didn't have too many other things going off that weekend the food again looked good but i never tried it. The Bad i didn't get much time to enjoy it, with work and what not i should have done more of the community events. my bad there i should have suggested wreckfest as a big game before hand, maybe next time the Bar running out of Ales pretty quickly little tub of ice cream for £2 should have been a little cheaper maybe a mr whippy would be nicer in future the heat in fairisle was unbearable at some points on the friday/saturday i was sat there simply sweating showers need a look at because they turn off as soon as you hit the button, also they need the hair cleaning out of the drains regularly The Ugly Suitcases being left in the middle of the isles. i don't blame you for bringing them, but don't leave them in the hall way for people to fall over all the time. i will admit i tripped numerous times and as a result a number of bags went flying as a result of my anger.

not speaking on behalf of epic here one bit. but my god when did kids get so picky on what they sit on!, my first Lan i sat on the bloody floor, and later a bean bag that i stole from the exhib hall. anyway got that out the system, as far as i'm aware Epic don't provide any chair "upgrades" its the steel padded ones and that's your lot. though if epic wanted to provide decent gaming chairs that could be a decent earner for them, and i'd like to see this. as any additional service that folks pay for ultimately improves the event for the rest of us here, meaning it will keep the ticket price lower for longer for everyone. whilst epic sort that out, you've got a bunch of options: pillows, put a pillow on the back and one under your bum, bingo, like sitting on a cloud. rent a van, £120 for 5 days from enterprise more than enough space for all your crap as well. courier. epic let a courier deliver to the venue before and after the event. leave the bambinos at home, come and enjoy a jolly weekend of games. buy chairs from Argos/PC world and return them to store afterwards i'm sure theres more options

The usual rules folks, free fire as well, don't hold back. The Good best epic event ever, no hiding that, might have been the best Lan i've ever been too. i can't remember many of them over the last 10 years, but yeh well organised well managed well maintained despite my early predictions about a pootroplis engulfing the KCC, the toilets were good to go all event, only one occasion where there was no paper but other toilets were available. got to mention the guys, the 404 community helped me celebrate my 10 years of lanning in style, bought me cake and a card, helped with the construction and deconstruction of the grand hall, and community tents, love everyone loads. the streetfighter film/game went down a storm, and was honestly a major highlight of the weekend the pub quiz had an excellent mix of questions and challenges, we won as a result the boat race was actually an enjoyable experience both during and afterwards late night lanwiches were good and didn't give food poisoning shout out to the day time security guard, who was very friendly and polite, more importantly he recognised most of the punters during the event meaning he didn't need to stop everyone all the time to check wristbands. epic staff becoming ever closer friends dishing out those drinking mugs to winbar, mrated and reech, and having a little speech right before the pub quiz will be a memory i take to the grave. sorry more of you didn't get mugs but they don't grow on tree's unfortunately, and i'd already robbed a bank to afford this event a decent selection of drinks at the bar tj's rocket fail. the cold keeping many of the gypsies out the campsite. the KCC staff seemed happy to be part of the event didn't experience the food much sadly, though it looked nice and the chips that i stole actually tasted good. The bad the bar running out of the the middle barrel pretty quickly, then followed by staroprahamen and a bunch of other stuff. the bar prices were still somewhat prohibitive for a good drinking session. finding out that they were selling carling bottles (500ml) at 2 for £4 after spending the entire afternoon drinking pints of carling for £4 some sods on the saturday night sitting down and playing a game of jackbox in the board game room, we were playing a game ourselves, and they stole all the wifi and killed our game, thought not their fault i guess. The Ugly My wallet at the end of event, shit i spent a lot. Lan came and went far to quickly a lot of angry people at this event. My Two Cents: honestly epic, best event ever in my opinion, and i'm sure other members 404 will agree. i'm sure they'r plenty of points I've missed that others will pick up. but yeah, it was pretty incredible, i hope to buying a ticket for next event very soon.

It may not have been as bad as originally predicted

excuse my math if I've got this wrong, but that leaves the lads with usable 5 usable brown bowls (7 if we can use the disabled) upstairs and 3 usable downstairs (5 if again we have the disabled). given the speed of the sell out this event one can assume this is going to be the busiest events ever. i also know from personal experience the late hours of the day and obviously the following morning, the womens toilets being available to the men are a god send only his holiness himself could have granted. now i'm going to assume some genders here but if 10% of the attendees (500+) are Shelia's that still leaves 12 Dunnies for 450 Drongo's now the average person spends 5 - 15 minutes on the toilet depending on whether they have got their phone out. for the sake of this study we're gonna round this up to 8 minutes per poop. and most people will have at least one poop a day at Lan, we can safely assume that will be a minimum 3600 minutes of sit down toilet time as we all know there are 1440 minutes per day, and with the 12 bogs we have available, that leaves us 17,280 brown townable minutes per day. assuming all toilets were in usable condition 24hrs a day i.e not blocked,out of toilet roll etc etc. in perfect a scenario that means at any point of of the day 4.8 of the 12 porcelain thrones available to those with meat and two veg, will be in use. now note the term perfect. as soon as we take into account busier, some may say rush hours of the day, the fact that some of those attending, wait to come to Kettering to take the brown kids to china town, and some of the punters see an unblocked toilet as a challenge. Those two small rolls of sandpaper are gonna be gone pretty quickly. and those 17280 minutes of personal potty practice will quickly reduce to queues the likes of which only women at a fake festival have ever experienced. heed this warning, for it my be you waiting in line when the turtle head touches your cotton Calvin ball carriers.

thats one hell of a spec

Great to see that the venue is taking the issue of food and drink seriously. its an important part of the Lan Experience, i look forward to the epic burger as always with a nice side of chips and cheese. any word on the Bar? hopefully they do a pub quiz deal.

if you ask nicely i might be able to sort you a deal with PC specialist, just build your laptop on their website, save the quote number, send me the quote number, and i'll try and get you a discount (normally between 8-12%), i can also ask for your build to be fast tracked so you get it sooner.

Hey gents, I'm just wondering if the epic staff were able to get some of these ideas and feedback to the guys at the KCC over the winter. Is their any good news? anything for us to get excited about? Will the bar and catering menus be added shortly?

404 is happy with the seating plan in Portland, fair isle and lakeside. Thanks gents.

Nice will the factorio server be death world?, it will be interesting having a large community try and take on that many bugs

Yes but this wasn't about people going yeah, great play well done, this was about people in a hall going screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyy, cos they won a pick on a deagle round. Then following it up by I fucked your mom, she hated it but guess what your gonna have brothers and sisters in 9 months. I mean I think we're a level above that surely. People don't have to play nice at lan, and sledging is something we do but does it have to involve the whole of fairisle? Type that shit in chat and let the fans watching the live stream too have a laugh

Topic gentlemen, or I'll have the thread closed
