Location

Corner of Chester Road North and Pelsall Road, Brownhills,
West Midlands,
WS8 7JW


MAP

Facilities
Information I found on the net about the building:

The old Brownhills "Central" Boys School. At the junction of Pelsall Road and the Chester North Road. The building dating from 1893, was designed for 210 boys & girls & 120 infants. Attended by both boys and girls untill 1932. It finally closed in 1980 when it (and the Girls High School ) were replaced by the Community School.

We are in the far end of the building, a sort of self contained end. A kitchen with an over, two fridges and a microwave. Generous toilets, a large room to game in and a smaller room just off that as a quiet room, which most people found easy to sleep in. The place is centrally heated and is perfectly snug in the winter and has plenty of parking to the rear of the building. We also have a net connection too!

The town itself is small but there is a good sized 24hr Tesco's round the corner and various eating places, so you will not be short of take-away places.

It’s not far from Pelsall (if you ever went to a KIA Lan, and about 15 miles from Birmingham town centre.)

Any other questions, please ask!

What you will need
In addition to your own food and drink, sleeping bag and pillow - you will also need the following:

* Your computer
* Monitor
* Keyboard
* Mouse
* Joystick (if you use one)
* 1 meter extension cable (if possible)
* Headphones (not speakers)
* Power cables
* Your Windows CD
* Any games you wish to play

When you arrive - you simply set up on the network with your games and play!!



Networking
The entire network is running on 10/100 MBit switches (UTP connections). This should suit the most popular network cards out there!

All the web/ftp/game-servers run on one main 'satellite' switch, then each area has it's own switch that links straight back to the servers, so no 'daisy chained' switches here!

If you have a 10 MBit card in your machine, this will be fine for gaming, but you will suffer a little if you're transferring files. Take the plunge! Upgrade at the LAN to 100 MBit speediness! (See below)

Network cards will be available at the event, these are D-Link 10/100 switchable cards.

£7.50 for just the card and driver disk.
£10 if you want it fitted and tweaked!

THESE CARDS MUST BE ORDERED IN ADVANCE THOUGH, PLEASE SUBMIT REQUIREMENTS AND PAYMENT WITH YOUR PAYMENT TO GUARANTEE YOUR PLACE!

oh and KNOW your LOCAL admin passy!



Sponsors
Valve Software - creators of HALF-LIFE

PLUS
Nvidia - graphics cards and motherboard manufacturers

Don't include me and Baity (er Guybrush) in that 10 number though cos we are organisers. Rates have been agreed if you can get the numbers together, so fun can be had with you 5punksters.

Good to see the interest here - GT Lans are fun and friendly and it would be good to have some of my new 'family' there! :) Meet some of you and all.

GB is right about the site - the bill hasn't been paid, the co-owner and I are sorting it out and it will be okay shortly! :P All a lack of communcation is all. Holidays for me and he have also clashed with it all - so it all went a bit pear shaped and will soon be back to usual! Promise!

Site will be up on Monday - sorry for the delay!
