I was chatting to the lads the other day, and we thought it might be nice to have a LAN party.
For all the details, including tourney structures and things that are new, see the forum.
Early payment will be £30! (to be paid more than 30 days in advance)
Standard price will be: £35 (within 30 days)
On-the-door it WILL BE £45! (or £15/day - so committ for the cause!)
Apparently there's another LAN coming up soon! And what's more, at the time of writing there are only two days left to grab yourself a proverbial early bird ticket. Probably should have posted something a little earlier.
People actually voted for the Christmas dates this year, specifically engineered to avoid Boxing Day, so maybe this year will be our biggest Christman LAN! No excuses.
Prices are the same as below. I can't be arsed to repeat them again. Actually, copy and paste is rather easy, and I know you like the pretty colours...

On-the-door it WILL BE £45! (or £15/day - so committ for the cause!)
No mistake - 40 people have actually taken it upon themselves to committ to the cause and pay in advance. Many even saved themselves a fiver and paid more than 30 days in advance.
Outstanding work!
Unfortunately this means nobody else can get in on the action. Best not turn up on the day expecting a seat, a table and a cable. Not gonna happen.
It is, however, still entirely possible some fool will have to cancel at the last minute. Should that happen a slot will open up and someone else could jump in, so check the signup list regularly.
Thanks again to everyone who's signed up and paid up - you've no idea how happy that makes me, or how much easier it makes the job of running one of these bleedin' things.
Plus, this ought to be the best LAN in quite some time! Check the forum for information about some exciting new activities, and tourney/quiz team allocation, etc.
Signup will be enabled a little later, to avoid confusion with the Summer LAN.
27th - 30th December. Dodging Boxing Day this time by popular demand, so no excuses!
We polled for Christmas LAN dates, see the link below. The results speak for themselves.
Early payment will be £30! (to be paid more than 30 days in advance)
Standard price will be: £35 (within 30 days)
On-the-door it WILL BE £45! (or £15/day - so committ for the cause!)
Signup for the Summer 2012 LAN is up.
24th - 27th August. Perhaps this one will be bigger than Easter, for a change.
No BBQ this Easter but maybe it'll happen in the Summer. Failing that there's always chili.
^-- There's the button, go and press it!
Also, I've put up a poll in the forum to find out which Winter dates you guys would prefer. There are a few options this time. Please vote so we can ensure the Winter LAN has a good attendance.
Early payment will be £30! (to be paid more than 30 days in advance)

Signup for the 2012 Easter LAN has been up for a little while now, but we're still in the EARLY PAYMENT phase, in which you can save a fiver.
6th - 9th April. We're a bit skint, so tell your friends. That's also why the price has gone up a tad.
Easter is traditionally our biggest event, and with a bit of luck the weather might allow for a BBQ.
Due to Xan-induced guilt Excal went and blew our budget on shiny prizes at Christmas, so we REALLY need you guys to get your sausages in a row and sign up!
Early payment now £30! (to be paid more than 30 days in advance)
Standard price the usual £35 (within 30 days, in this case after 6th March or something like that)
On the door price WILL BE £45! (or £15/day - so committ for the cause!)
Hells yeah. Another chance to finish a game of TI without anyone dropping out after 12 minutes.
26th - 29th December. Be there and be square.
Popular demand quashed cancellation 'rumours' (wasn't me), so show your support and sign up!
Full details of the tournaments will be on the forums soon, no doubt.
I promise there'll be better prizes this time, Xan. I'm pretty sure you can get 5p for the empty Lambrini bottle from somewhere, though.
Early payment now only £20! (to be paid more than 30 days in advance)
Standard price the usual £30 (within 30 days, in this case after 29th November)
On the door price WILL BE £35! (or £12.50/day - committ for the cause!)
Gather round -> the ShinyLAN Summer LAN 2011 signup list on.
26th - 29th August. Get in QUICK for early payment discount (£5): window closes on the 28th July.
Everybody sign up now, make the list look good! Everybody likes a fully loaded LAN...
Full details of the tournaments can be found on the forums.
The ShinyLAN Easter LAN 2011 signup list is now ready for your username!
22nd - 25th. The time for early payment has passed, so its £30.
Hopefully the weather will support a meaty BBQ, otherwise we might try to cook something up in the kitchen instead.
My dearest LAN-goers!
The ShinyLAN Christmas LAN 2010 is now confirmed and will be taking place 17:00 Sunday 26th December - 17:00 Tuesday 28th December 2010. Yes, your eyes are not deceiving you, it is a shorter than usual 48 hour event, thus giving you more time to spend your Christmas holidays with family (and a more valid excuse to get away from them!).
The cost of this delight couple of days will be a cheaper than usual £15 for advance payment (more than 30 days before the event), increasing to £20 for the last 30 days or £25 on the door. Please note that as its not really BBQ weather, the staff have decided to cook everyone a Christmas Dinner on the Saturday night in the form of a chilli, this will be served in the side room and is free to anyone that wants it. If its minging, I apologize in advance but it will at least keep those winter chills at bay ;)
Seems most people would like to take the Monday regardless of the non-bank holiday, so the dates suggested below have stuck.

Friday 23rd to Monday 26th July 2010
Apologies for the delay getting the signup live, but there's still a good month for early payment and to save a fiver! No excuse...
'Ere be the forum thread: click this bit
Right, got Summer dates but it's not the usual August bank holiday unfortunately.
Friday 23rd to Monday 26th July 2010
A little earlier than usual, but it's pretty much all we can get. What we need to do at this early stage is establish if we can afford to run until the Monday.
See what we did there? Yeah. Could have been a little smoother, granted, but it kinda works.
Friday 2nd to Monday 5th April 2010
And it's in Wincanton! WIN-canton.
So it's WestLAN AND ShinyLAN. Extra people! Unusually large LAN.
So be there or, be square I s'pose.
Here's the forum thread. Check out the raging banter.
Right lets go people! Christman LAN is live, 72 hours because it's awsome. Plus I think we can afford it...
Saturday 26th to Tuesday 29th December 2009
We really are cutting it close this time, so I've made sure to get the LAN online WELL ahead of time so there are no excuses!
Despite the fact that I was slow to get this one on, as usual, you've still got more than 3 months to sort yourselves out for SL09.2.
Friday 21st to Monday 24th August 2009
Similar to one of our recent LANs, this LAN does NOT fall on a bank holiday - we had no choice - but we've still booked that Monday for our finishing day, so please make an effort to book that monday off work.
We need as much support this time as possible - funds are running low after the expendature of 2008 and we'd REALLY like to keep this years' Christmas LAN over 48 hours.
Getting the dates arranged was a bit tricky this time, so apologies if I haven't left someone enough time to book time off.
Friday 10th to Monday 13th April 2009
Nice simple arrangement, including the bank holiday Monday (13th). Book the time off and get signed up!
