Well, we thought we could last 3 months between LAN's... but alas, 3 months is a GOD AWFUL LONG TIME!
So we have decided to ask you guys if you would be interested in a 10am Saturday till 2pm Sunday Mini LANX to fill the void. Only 50 people or so, so it should be a hell of a lot easier to find a nice little venue in central Ballarat so us hardcore gamers can get a fix in between X's! Let us know what you think!

Yeah a Mini-X is a great idea. If it fell on a weekend when I didn't have to go back to Geelong to keep up the pretence that I still consider myself to be a part of my parent's family then I'd definantly go.
MINIX (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minix) might infringe on a few copyright laws though :P

Not really... given that MINIX is an OS and MINI-X is an event.

that sounds really cool, problem with a the large wait is that when it does come around i normally have things on and cant stay for the whole even and its so far until the next one :(
plus its easyer to set aside a sat and sun than friday sat and sun. cabt get anythign else done, work gets pissed when i take the whole weekend off :(

Sorry, I having a bit of trouble reading that, my monitors a bit blurry after someone SPLASHED COKE ALL OVER MY PC AND MONITOR AT THE LAST X!!! Even after we said no food or drink guess what we were doing when everyone had left? Any guesses? Cleaning up coke cans, food wrappers and pizza boxes from food people had snuck in... funny thing is, I don't remember seeing one 5 year old in the whole place... I don't mind volunteering my time to put this event on for you guys, but when some people spit in my face and don't listen it get's a bit much.

Thats why you should start bringing an 18 inch black rubber cock to your LANs (ask Mark, he's bound to have a few laying around).
Instead of "No food or drink on the basketball court" you can put "Eat and drink on the basketball court as much as you want, but for every mouthful we'll put one more hole in your upper colon"
Here ends Loki's guide to customer service :)

sorry dude, can say I wasn't one of those who ate, but If you guys need help cleaning up am more than willing to stick around and help.
I know my saying this doesn't make up for anything that has happened, but there is people out there who respect the rules.

You can assume that the worlds flat, but doesn't make it so ;) Most of the other LAN's like MonsterLAN, MorB, LANZ, LOTD, they're all 2 dayers, it'll cost what ever it costs depending on venue costs etc ya JEW! :P $25 is fuck all, it all goes towards the cause! ;)

$25 is fuckin heaps for an unemployed, unsupported and broke 18 year old. :p

Nice car, sell it ;)
It'll cost what it costs when we do out in depth cost analysis, my gold lexus isn't going to pay for itself ;)
But anyways, it's not about the cost (even though it always finds it's way to the subject of judaism),
shit cost money, and it always will, there is nothing we can do about it except get over it and accept it :)
We don't wanna have another Yummy Lan do we! (poor bastards).

Count me in for a Mini LANX. I couldn't go to the last X because I was in Canberra for a family holiday. The cravings for a LAN are constantly taughting me. I need a LAN fix!

what, with all the fantastic added extras we threw in? absolutely freezing hall, having to drive to asia to attend, WHAT MORE COULD YOU WANT?!?! :P
i guess it can be put simply by the old saying, "pay peanuts, get monkeys"

People bitch about LANX costing a measly $25, yet they'll still go to a movie... The time being entertained to the cost ratio is farking good value.
I'm up for a MINIX!

cost of average movie (120mins) $6.75 per hour
copst of minix $0.89 per hour
people are fucking stupid. id pay 50 bux for a lan... if i had 50 bux :/
