If you book a Twin Room and want to share the costs of the room then when you post in this thread to confirm your attendance then also make a note of the fact you have a Twin room booked and are looking for someone to share with.


As before, the reduced accommodation and function room rates have been negotiated on the basis that the majority of the attendees will partake of the excellent cuisine offered by either the hotel restaurant's Fixed price, A La Carte or Bar menus.


And YES, there WILL be Steak Night!


Eating at the hotel is NOT mandatory, but I am sure that any attendee from the last couple of LANs will vouch for the quality of both the food and the company!

• The Noble Suite - an air conditioned conference room
  
• 24/7 access to the suite
• dMw control of entry to the suite
• Late night bar

• Sauna and Steam room

Amongst other things the LAN will feature:

- A list of officially supported games ( Games TBC)
- Organised competitions
- Official LAN Admins
- Late night gaming


Note for International Travellers:


The LAN accommodation costs are above, it's cheaper if you agree to share a twin bed (two single beds) room with someone of course.


Travel: Any London airport works well, Stanstead & Luton are closest. Heathrow is ok, Gatwick is further but still doable. If you book your flight tickets we'll make sure someone picks you up and takes you back - post on the forums for a lift and you are usually sorted out very quickly as other attending members appreciate the international effort made! Other airports are also a possibility - if in doubt post and we'll see if anyone would be travelling past your airport!


Computer: If you have a shuttle or laptop then you're probably sorted (unless hand luggage rules cause you problems) but if you cannot bring your own PC then post in the LAN section to see if someone is willing to lend you a spare PC for the weekend. Many people have done this in the past and it seems to work well!


Please note that, as previously, by signing below you agree to sign a liability disclaimer waiver form (if not already signed). This is a condition of your attendance at the LAN. Please pm Penfold if you wish to see a copy of it.


You are free to book your rooms now directly with the hotel on 01354 602890. So put your name down when you have confirmed you have booked in

Remember to say it's for the dMw Lan (to get the subsidised rate) and also give your real name and gaming name.


(If you want to arrive early and stay on the Thursday night you will receive the same subsidised rate).

Please can you also say if you are LAN or Social so we have the numbers for the tables.

Once you have booked your room please post below so I can keep track, state if you arriving Thursday as well.

Also if you are booking a room to share please can you put that down and who you are sharing with.

Room booked Thursday, Friday and Saturday in the residence.....

[Tutonic]

I'm afraid I'm going to have to sit this one out.

I'm going into hospital next month for a kidney transplant, and this comes just a little too soon. I might be able to get down for a day trip or something, but I can't commit to anything right now.

So who wants to come and get the helping hand off me?

[lionheart]

I'll be there. Again. As always.

[smilodon]

Passing on this one. Holiday in Cornwall that week. Have a great time guys.

It's a darned poor excuse tbh, but we'll let you off.     Hope it goes well Tut, we'll keep you in our thoughts.
