490611 2006-10-10 17:52:00 The Battlegrounds LAN, otherwise known as BGLan, is a medium sized event which caters towards the LAN goer. We are mostly a gaming lan, and are having a big three day event this time, with free pizza! The last event was amazing - running 40+ hours, with great games of CoD2, CoH, and Defcon being played. Kudos to the 45 who came!

VENUE:
Health at Apollo, Corner of Apollo Drive and Rosedale Road, Mairangi Bay. Maps up on website. Apollo Drive has been opened for use by the general public! You can now come via Rosedale Road or Apollo Drive. We also have PLENTY of parking. :D

TOURNAMENTS:
Tournaments will be decided at event, we have nothing planned currently.

GAMES:
We will be trying to run Battlefield 2, Unreal Tournament 2004, Call Of Duty 2 & 1 and Trackmania servers during the event. This event we're going to try to get a whole heap of BF2 games going. There will be an opportunity for Starcraft if anyone's interested. You can play any game you wish to, these are the games we'll be running servers for though.

NETWORK:
We will have an internet connection available, running at 256kbit/s. There will also be a DC hub running. Our network is fully gigabit.

We will be selling drinks/food onsite, any profit from those goes to paying back our network gear and supports the event. We will also be getting Pizza Hut pizza delivered, which will be free.

We would very much appreciate anyone from these forums to come. We're expecting to full our maximum capacity of 80 for this event, so reserve yourself a spot and save some cash!

What not to bring:
- Alcohol
- Drugs
- Cigarettes(Smokers can bring these, but they have to go fully off the premises to smoke.)

We cannot allow any of the above mentioned at the event because that's the rules that were set down upon us for the venue, plus they tend to lessen the fun others have.
