3 days?
That's quite the long meet-up without an event but it should be fun
|
Muss arbeiten 
Vllt kann ich mir kurzfristig freinehmen, aber ich denke eher nicht. Fährt jemand von München oder kommt dran vorbei?
|
hmmmmmm
I've never been to any kind of gaming event, but somehow I feel I should go to a SC lan before SC2 comes out...

Pholon is bugging me and am looking into flights. Seems like it's easiest for me to fly to Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg airport and then get a bus. Sounds intriguing.

:: NEWCASTLE :: TL MEET-UP & LAN :: NEWCASTLE, NORTH-ENGLAND :: August 13th - 16th
Hey chums,
Kovutalli and myself have organised a TL meet-up and LAN super fun fest in the home of goofy accents and Alan Shearer: Newcastle, England. Apart from having a good time and having a blast with fellow TL-members from around Europe (hopefully) and lots of starcraft. Check this shit yo.
- StarCraft2 and Brood War LAN - We got two days from 10am-10pm in Cyber Game Zone for so much Starcraft that your dick explodes.
- TotalBiscuit will be there, I'll be there. Fuck that, you need to meet us. We're fucking awesome.
- Newcastle is home of something cool... maybe. We'll find it and have fun there.
First, where we are going to sleep. At the moment, we got nowt, but don't worry. There's some massive and cheap Hostels (It's newcastle, they're going to be dirt cheap) and when enough people say they're coming, we can book them in bulk and save so much money you'll note it down and tell your family when you get home. We're currently looking at Albatross Backpackers
You have some choices for sleep times. I'm going to list them for you so if you don't know your options you know you're dumb.
- If coming from a long way, we will have a group of us staying Friday, Saturday and Sunday Night at a hostel. For all you super cool people from abroard or travelling a long way from inside the UK, pick Option 1
- For those who can get to Newcastle in the morning of Satuday can stay Saturday and Sunday Night. You guys can be Option 2
- For those coming not so far, a group of you can book one night (Saturday). Find some buddies in Option 3 and save some cash.
- For those Geordies who live nearby, go home. (Option 4)
Some planning fun:
Friday: Friday is a cool day. For those travelling from London or around there, hit me up and we'll go up together, maybe stop for a manly lunch. For those of us who get to Newcastle of Friday, Kovu is going to find somewhere for us to have a Pre-LAN dinner meet. I hope that's ok by him.
Saturday: Saturday we'll get to the LAN centre at 10ish and then stay there and play some Starcraft. If I got a BIO finals available, then we'll play one. We'll probably have a sweet BW tourney too and maybe some Poker stuff if people bring a set.. In the evening we'll go find somewhere to get drunk or do something fun. I dunno how, but we'll find a way.
Sunday Same dealy as Saturday really. Will run an SC2 tournament and have more fun.
If you are coming, you need to post right here in this thread and tell me what sleeping option you need and how many are coming.
That all I had to say
MONEY
You guys are probably poor, I get it. This is what it'll cost ya: Event Entry: This will be £17 for the whole thing. If we get a lot of interest, this will probably drop. Accomodation: From what I've seen, no more that £16 a night. Food: Newcastle is pretty dirty. You can get a kebab for like, £2. Travel: I dunno, find out yourself.
If you show up without the entry fee or whatever, I won't let you in. I don't give a shit, no freeloaders.
Travel Firstly I hope you are all aware of thise: EVERYONE FROM ANYWHERE IS WELCOME. I've asked the LAN guys and they don't seem to care how many come (there's 42 PCs so would like to get at least that many) so if you're from the UK, or from New Zealand, you can come. (Even Germans are allowed).
From the UK Get a train or some shit. You're an Adult, you should be able to manage it. Don't be lazy.
From Abroard Newcastle has an Airport so you can fly there. If it's expensive or whatnot, check other nearby airports and consider flying to one of them then getting a train or something after. The Airport generally have really good links.
From Train Station to Centre/Hostel HOLY SHIT MAP.
![[image loading]](http://i46.tinypic.com/n3lea.jpg) You guys can arrange times to meet at the station and someone can come get you.
Confirmed so far: flicky kovutalli
+ Show Spoiler + Option 1 People flicky
Option 2 People
Option 3 People
Option 4 People Kovutalli
Tentative Pholon

Yeah it's just due to where I live. To get a flight to Baden will take longer to travel to the airport than time/money saved on a flight.

Okay I'm definitely coming. I just need a ride on Friday. Anyone driving through cologne? Irgendjemand? :O

Looks like I still have a seat left. How about you belieVe?

I live near Basel. But no time available that weekend.
Have fun guys!
And if you fly to Basel/Mulhouse, it should cost you around 11 Euro with a slow train and 20 Euros with the fast one to get to Freiburg. And probably some euros to get to the train station with the bus. If they didn't change the prices since i went to university in freiburg.
