So....that means you'll be up for a little L4D this evening?
Err I might be persuaded :norty:
Another top LAN, big thanks to all who made it possible. I'll hopefully see you all again in 6 months :)
Oh, and I finally got around to paying my subscription. Yea, I know, it was about time...
A fantastic LAN and special props to Penfold for turning up late, Ninja for being loud again, Sheepy for managing to hold a marker pen to attempt to write 'Target' on a whiteboard only to miss the board and almost fall over, and Gandalf & Tobious for helping out with networks and making Cat6 cables. I think a special thanks should go to GhostMjr who despite not being there in person still managed to run up the biggest bandwidth usage as he sent a portable hard drive to the LAN instead!
Safely home, what a weekend and some great competitions! Thanks for the fun folks, see you again in October for LAN XVI.
TL.
Legendary. That is the only word to describe it :D
I counted them out :byebye: and I counted them back. :yahoo: Welcome home boys.
awsome lan my head still hurts just stuffing a roast dinner down me neck hopefully that will sort me out least i got my apertite back as i wasnt to great this morning hence leaving at 10:30 due to the massive session sat night ....mmm and the massive session on friday too think it was that mighty fine whiskey that ppl was drinking not forgeting the 14quid a shout of XO brandy even the pavment looked comfy walking home ooh yes it was like that proper fu****ed like the germans
wot TL said great job to all that organised this legendary lan BIG shout out to all officers and the ppl that made this happen
was great to see everyone again and til next time happy hunting
Back home now and can report that I took Delanvital to get deported as well so all-in-all a good job done :)
Echoing TL's, thanks to those that stepped up to the plate and set everything up in my absence. I was a few hours late as I had to make a detour.
I'll put up a thank ye list shortly and also sort out the badges.
Cheers all, it all seemed to go rather smoothly..... gotta love those new switches, they made one helluva difference :thumbsup2:
Back safely feeling the wear and tear.
Good racing, malts and company:D
Tasted a few new (to me) spirits from Gandalf and the hotel manager and from Fatbob a very nice brandy. Very generous. Ninja provided a nice 16 yr old Lagavulin (not for the first time I hear) + an 18 Talisker and Oldie and Pen both provided a botle of talisker 10 year old. I did see FBG with an Aberlour late last night but he escaped with it unsullied.
Enjoyed meeting old and new Deadmen and had a great time.:D
Thanks to all who organised the LAN and roll on XVI
P.S Whitey also supplied a wonderful 12 year old Glenfiddich
P.P.S The mists are slowly clearing from the memory.
I returned home to find my Linksys wireless bridge completely dead, and smelling slightly burnt. Yay!
Good job I borrowed (stole) a massive piece of Cat6 from work :D
Yes it was another great LAN thanks to everyone who did al the background stuff. And amazing work gandalf on the cables your a legend!!!!
TL and Smil thanks for the info about the A40 worked a treat!!
See you all in Oct!!
In spite of missing nearly 24 hours of the thing due to my mystery stomach bug, plus missing all the competitions, the raffle and the auction... oh and blowing my PC up in the process, I strangely also had a good time. At least no one stole my suitcase this time, which is a bonus :wink:
See you at LAN XVI.
The Scots made it home as well with only a short delay at passport control holding us up.
Thanks to everyone for making it such a great LAN :D
Note to self: Lameduck doesn't like 12 year old Glenfiddich :narnar:
and remember not to drink whisky next year (My head felt like it had been hit with a hammer on Saturday morning).

Yeah, no one wanted any after they'd poslished off half the talisker and others you'd had out :sad: I drank some of it though. I'll bring some more next time.
p.s. Great to be back, and had a great time to boot.
p.p.s. Big Thanks to Suicidal_Monkey and BrotherTobious for the lift up from London. And Also to Sheepy for lending his floor for the night (And no i didn't have a sore ass in the morning !)
P.P.P.S: Oh and a big thanks to Fat Bob for his £80 round of drinks at the end of the night! It was a loverly
Courvesoir ?brandy?

Just got in (20 mins ago). First thing I HAD to do was to get the rig back in position and booted - alls well :)
Did I beat Delanvital home? :D Six and a half hours is a long bluddy time! Made longer I admit by stopping for a MaccyD and promptly falling asleep for 45 mins in the car park!
Last year I wrote a 'review' come synopsis thingy - will do the same later - just to ram the point home to those that have never made it to the LAN.
I had a fantastic time and like Delanvital, whose company I enjoyed the whole weekend (thanks bud), I was relaxed and thankfully far away from the real world.
Good to see you all - Hopefully I can make October too :)
Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
EDIT: I remember Delan saying his flight didn't leave till 5 or 6 so yeah I beat him :) Hope you had a good trip Delan! Oh and it wasn't Duvel I met last LAN it was the DOC - oops my memory is fading, must be old age!

Damn, if only I had known it was yours :doh:
Good people, fun games, tasty food, cold beer - and girls to look at as they serve it for you. What more can you want? :) Thanks a bunch to FatDan, Pen and Toby for helping me out!
Oh and NJ should have some kind of award for "crouch and shoot" :lmfao:
Glad you all had a great time and that you all made it home safely:D
I'll be there next time, promise:flirty:
