Help us out by preregistering

If you plan on coming to the Atlanta Winter LAN 2010 hop on over to Intel's site and preregister. This will help us estimate attendance and prepare for the event. If you haven’t already preregistered the URL to do so is https://lanfest.intel.com/?page=event&sub=register&eventid=1381 . You don't have to prepay if you don't want to however please sign up for the event if you plan on attending. If you have any questions about how to preregister you can contact us by going to the Contact Us page and sending us your question. Other than that things are coming together. We have posted the current teams that plan on attending to this point on the forums. Also we have posted almost all of the tournaments and the rule sets. So make sure you check them out on the Event Page. As we close in on the LAN check back with us as we will be posting more updates frequently.

Winter LAN update and F7lans LAN

A lot has been happening in the last month, and although the site may not reflect it we have been hard at work! We have been working with Intel LAN Fest to bring Atlanta another amazing LAN. Right now we are still on for a winter event. We are looking at dates in late Jan. early Feb. timeframe. We have almost all the details hammered out however we cannot announce everything because we have to get everything approved on the backend. What I can tell you is that we are going to have the biggest event yet and we will have Intel with us along with F7lans to put on an amazing event. One thing that I can announce is that we will be having tournaments for our favorite games like usual. You can check out some of these by going to the event page and look at the list of tournaments that we are planning on hosting. Prizes for the tournaments will be posted when we post all the final event information so stay tuned.

Also if you have time this winter break F7lans will be hosting a 3-Day LAN at the Gaming Arena January 8- 10. Some of the other A.L.F staff and I will be there to help out and get in on some of the gaming action. Details can be found on their webpage http://www.f7lans.com.
