The President of ARG (Anime Resource Group), the parent company of FanimeCon, made a proposal to me and I thought I would post it and hear what all of you think about it.

Besides E-Gaming, what if we threw a LAN Party?

How popular do you think that idea would be?

If you answered "NO", above, can you tell me why you wouldn't join in?

If it's Bring-Your-Own-Box (BYOB), I wouldn't be able to do so (lest my parents slice me a hundred times with a fillet knife, screaming "WHAT ARE YOU DOING THEY'RE GOING TO STEAL OUR COMPUTER!1!")

If there are limited at-party computers, I may take interest, but at the moment, no.

Well i kinda agree with the post above, i think in earlier years they actually did have a LAN party at Fanime where they were playing Quake3 if i remeber correctly(the set up was so drasticly diffrent than mine so i had a hard time playing) if i had to BYOB i would have to have a laptop which i unfortunaly dont have to want to bring my comp from where i live to the Con.

Why do i fall in lov with every girl that pays the littlest bit of attention to me?

BYOB would probably prove troublesome...I wouldn't mind so much if the b ox was like, strapped down to a table type thing so people can't take our computers at night. lol.

I'lll be busy with other stuff anyways. lol

Yes...but I want to play, not lead it =P

Question: at FanimeCon or a future FanimeCon based event? I do have a few good ideas...

We need a good LAN party out here. There hasnt been a good one in ages in the area at all.

hell yea on LAN Party!
i'm not embarrassed to bring my VAIO hahahah
i'll stay there all night and play

for security issue
honestly... if there was a LAN party
with tons of other people
they should all be kind enough to sorta watch over their neighbors PCs and what not
i prefer a mouse over a wiimote =]

lyricaldanichan

All the lan partys I have been too people play until they are tired and take their PC back home/hotel room. That would be fun to have something like this especially if you have a good laptop to play a lot of FPS games. It would be awesome if we all played Doom and Doom II .. hahaha

I would but I probably won't bring my pc to the con.

If its supplied pcs, it depends on what game.
