LAN/360 party at my home in Bloomington, ILRegister here:
http://fuse.gotdns.com/LAN/Reg/Register.aspDetails:-June 30th to July 1st. If you come up Friday Jun29th, it had better be in the evening. Everyone MUST be gone by 9pmish on July 1st. I work for a living on Monday (plus I need a lot of beauty sleep).
-This is my home - If you disrespect my family, me, or the property, you're out. (usually doesn't need to be said, but is a point to be made considering the next bullet...)
-BYOB. If you are 21+, bring drinks, enjoy them in moderation. Also needless to say, if your drinking, you're not driving.
-Smoking is ONLY allowed in the backyard...
-I respect my neighbors, so will you.
-Being from a Saturday to Sunday, it will be a full weekend. I can offer up the floor of my basement to sleep, but that's all. So if you want a warm bed, better bring one as you will not sleep with me, my wife, or my brother in law - and that fills the bedrooms.
Music:-I will have my DJM-909 mixer out with my cheap turntables as well if anyone wants to bring records and spin. Hopefully I will get someone with better tables and better speakers. (If you plan on coming and can provide these things, please let me know)
-The police in our town are cracking down on noise complaints.
-If the 360s don't take up too much bandwidth and I am able to, I will be broadcasting music online to
http://www.midwest-edm.com (perk of being radio manager, even when we really haven't gotten things going yet)
Equipment:-The main focus will be PC games, but XBox360 will also be there.
-I will offer up my computer as the main server for the night, but this also means we play what I have/want/can install.
-I have a 24 port managed router, a 5 port switch, and I think another 12 port router laying around. I don't expect to get enough to fill the 24 porter, but you may need to bring your own cat5. I only have about 100ft and a crimper.
-I can supply at LEAST one xbox360, most likely 2 on 2 different TVs.
-I have cable internet, which will only be accessible by me (this way we can avoid key checks for games like unreal etc... )
-IF internet is needed for something you come to me first. I will have wireless access (to internet, NOT the gaming servers) for you if you need it. My upload is about 400kb/sec. It's not BAD for upload but that is part of the reason we will separate the gaming LAN from any web dependencies.
-The XBox360(s) will be connected to the web for XBox Live capabilities.
Equipment needed:-Turntables/CD decks? Anyone have 1200s? Anything is better than what I have.
-Mixer? As I said, I have a DJM-909, a very very nice battle mixer, but if you want to bring something else-go for it.
-Speakers/Receiver. I have a junky one and sub par speakers, but we can make it work. I don't want fullstacks in my basement though, it's a small place.
-Extra router. I have not used this managed router yet, so am not completely sure if it works.
-Games (PC/360)
-360 controllers. We have 5 total to use with two 360's, so 3 more would be nice.
-Extra folding table. Plastic/wood/whatever. If you have one, we might need it.
PC Games (supply more ideas):Unreal Tournament 2004
Counterstrike
Starcraft(BW)
Company of Heroes
XB360 Games (supply more ideas):Gears of War
GRAW
GRAW2
