OK, so, this thing is officially GOLD. This is officially the 4th major LAN release for Fallen.  Not to be confused with the 2 Golf-n-Lan patches released this year.  Here are the details:

[size=30]Where: Beers place in Bettendorf, Iowa flying into the airport in Moline, Illinois
When: Feb 6th-8th[/size]
[/b]

Here is some information regarding traveling that I have copied from the previous thread.  The prices I just ran during the time of this posting, so prices may change.  Id encourage you guys to buy your tickets now.

Indianapolis to Moline = 4 hours
Atlanta to Moline = 11 hours vs $225 ticket
Canton to Moline = 8 hours vs $200 ticket
Virginia Beach to Moline = 15 hours vs $300 ticket (out of Norfolk)
Greensboro, NC to Moline = 13 hours vs $175 ticket (out of Durahm)
Boston to Moline = 16 hours vs $275 ticket
Sacramento to Moline = 27 hours vs $477 ($320 from San Francisco)
Newark, NJ to Moline, IL  = 13.5 hours vs $186
Philadelphia, PA to Moline, IL  = $260


[size=30]I called Delta...it is OK to carry on your desktop pc so long as it meets the measurement requirements.  You can only carry on one thing...so you will have to figure out how to pack your monitor with your pc[/size][/b]

Beer has some extra monitors that he said we can use (those of us that are flying).  This really helps.  Ive already claimed the 19’’ lcd.  I asked that he reserve one of the 17’’ lcd’s for Seagul if he wants it.  Beer can list the others that he has.

Here are some websites for luggage:

I like the cyber guys ones.  I think I may buy the monitor and pc carrying pieces, and then somehow strap them together.

This one is nice too.  It turns into a backpack:

Maybe Malice can get us some free gear?  If not, no biggy, but it sure would make it interesting.  We could have some tournaments to win the gear.  Im buying my tickets in the next day or two!  For those who have never been to a LAN or are a bit uneasy about the idea, I can speak from experience (ive been to all 5 total including the golf-n-lans) that they are a blast and very comfortable.  It isnt weird at all...seriously.  I encourage everyone to come.  This is a once in a year thing.

PS.  Since this is at Beer's place, he makes up the rules on who gets to come or not.

As soon as I go home for a weekend I will drop a list of available monitors I have to be used.  The airport is only about 20 minutes from the house so that's not a problem and I/we will be happy to pick anyone up.  There are 5 beds, 4 couches, 3 full bathes  and plenty of floor space. I will have 2 air mattresses and blankets for all.  There are some good restaurants around and I will take care of munchies and alcohol needs.  I will be getting with Ghost to make sure I have all that we need as far as spare computer things.  I will also be off from Thursday til Tuesday for anyone that comes in early or stays late.

Sweet it is only like 200 miles away! So we will probably leave thursday(if bobbo can leave then)afternoon and get there at the sametime as the boys from "hot"lanta, beer just leave a key under the mat and me and bobbo will keep our selves occupied with your beer collection, dont worry we will save you the bottles.

Don't forget... you just need 10ish people (we might be able to pad the numbers) to get some sponsorship at the event.
