Sadly the date was beyond our control - we obviously would prefer *not* to clash with multiplay but it's just the ways of things annoyingy :/

We'll still have a decent turnout and a rocking lan tho. Not everybody likes huge lans like i-series (no offence to multiplay) and we've got a very loyal fanbase :)

Perhaps you can make it to the next one...

Hey again.

I'm afraid we don't have the date for the next LAN booked as yet but we'll get one asap and get the info to you. (usually this doesn't occur until just after an event). This is due to the awkwardness of booking venues...However, the one we're using now is much more flexible so I'm hoping we can book massively in advance from now on :)

In our current venue we've limited it to 40-50 due to it's small size :/ However, we're hunting down a new venue with a more reasonable size so once that's sorted we'll have something nice to work with :)

Ticket prices are £30 for the full weekend, going up to £35 if you book very late.

Our old venues were all in Central Manchester (less than 3-5 miles from the centre) but our current one is stockport-marple way. We're hoping to get away from it asap but in the meantime it does provide a nice secure environment at a price that isn't unaffordable (though still steep compared to our previous venues).

If we find somewhere cheaper, we'll drop the ticket prices again of course :)
