but other then that it does look interesting and i will advertise to my gaming fellas here. any other way of advertisement Ashley?

I dont think you need to bring the game consoles. I think once the spots fill up then the extra people wait, but I am really not sure how many people are even going to show up.
How else would you like it to be advertised? We have the flyers in our area, and this up here on CD.

Can you buy me a plane ticket? then I could come.

Lol, I would, if I could... :( Sorry.
Look into having a LAN party fundraiser for your team!
We found someone who could get more info to the head of the place, and they seem really interested. I am not positive, but I think we get 50% of whatever goes into it. So thats like $10 per person! if we fill the place [40 people] thats $400! And then people can come and go! So I am hoping it works out well.
Dont take my word on the details, I didnt plan it so much. lol.

I just don't know about the price, it seems a little high to bring your own computer. Did you think about selling refreshments for extra profit? Or like having hand stamps like darien lake so maybe they can leave and go to lunch then come back?
But otherwise it is an awesome idea! I wish our team had come up with something like that.

Hey Ashley. Are the times correct, it says 12pm to 11 pm, so is that a 24 hour thing, or is there a typo. I'll try to see if i can come, right now my power supply is hanging out the back of my case cuz it's bigger than the old one and doesn't fit :D . hopefully I'll have a case by Sunday. And are you guys supplying monitors? or do i have to bring that too.

Thats a good idea my team had a game night, but we used ps2's and such b/c we were all to lazy to bring are comps. we had like 7 projectors running at once :ahh: .
although it was free so it dident raise much money

I suspect that was to get people in the area to come to the party.
And lose the 'tude, kid. It reflects badly on your team.

why are you posting a lan party on the internet when most people on (chief_delphi) are from all other states and country's.this type of thing is Suppose to be LOCAL .

Because there are LOCAL people from the Upstate NY area who post here also who can come.

ALSO,
THERE ARE 16 [or more now?] ROCHESTER NY AREA TEAMS. YES< COUNT THEM, 15 TEAMS WITHING 30 or 45 min of ROCHESTER NY.
And people from those teams use chiefdelpi, plus, it is actually a realy good fundrasing idea... sorry if you dont like it.
I am not a fan of giving negative rep, so I wont, but seriously, a lot of people are going to give you a hard time if you go about things that way.

From the look of things he's gotten plenty (though that could be due to his other posts as well).
The kid really needs to reel it in and cool it.

when you post a lan party on cheifdelphi most other teams are not in ny
which dose not serve a point; most other teams in surronding area did not come to your lan party , only gamers and team
i dont take trash; just say what i think

Do you have something against NY? I'm from the Midwest and i think its a great idea having a LAN party and posting it on chief Delphi. Plus next time someone could say "Hey LAN party on UT2004 server: FIRST ROBOTICS. the password is AIM HIGH" You got to realize NY is very big so posting it on chief Delphi was a great idea. If you don't like it then don't read it.

It's no different then posting off season events. Most of the teams that attend them are local or in a nearby state (IRI is the exception). Chiefdelphi is a community that ALL OF FIRST uses to spread information that helps FIRST teams all around. This was a 1511 fundraiser, thus it was important. That you take umbrage to it shows how little you grasp the scope of FIRST and what this page is about. Next time please try to be more considrate.

I know many many people who go to Arena 51. It is a gaming center. I am positive a ton of robo nerds in the rochester area [and farther] have come to game there.
I thought it would interest others because its different than normal because it is helping out a fellow robo team.
We advertised in our area, but we thought that we could reach more people in our area [and out] by posting on CD. :)
