i39.5/i40 Summer Plan

Normally this is a bit earlier than we do this, but I've just noticed a problem with the dates which means we need to sort shit out now.

The dates for i40 are the bank holiday weekend of August (27th to 30th), which also happens to be the same weekend as Reading and Leeds Festivals, which I know some people here go to, myself included (I've actually already have presale, so bar a shit lineup and selling the tickets, i40 is no-go for me). It will be at Newbury across the whole site.

Multiplay have also announced they are doing a 500-person lan in June (18th-21st), also at newbury, but only on one or two floors of one of the buildings. Other than the size and when, I can't find any more details on the site, but judging by it's nickname of i39.5, I'm guessing it's a scaled down version of an i-Lan. Quote from wizzo on i39.5:

Plan is a "large StratLAN" with 400-500 seats, no prize winning tournaments and more organised fun gaming.

This eliminates the Reading problem, but may be unviable for others (those doing exams spring to mind).

I just wanna gauge availability now for either so we know what we will be doing when tickets for the June event go on sale. Post and vote up top.

EDIT - It's worth adding that I'm not trying to say we should only do one. Rather, I'm trying to see the possible amount of people going to each one and since the June one is only 500, its likely to sell quicker and thus we need to be organised now.

Can probably do both but would need to check nearer the dates to be 100%

Could possibly do both, if I was willing to spend moar money..

i40 is a deffo, though it's a bit annoying with the fests aint it.

Definitely up for both myself.

I'm 99% deffo going to i39.5, since that seems to be my only chance to meet up with you guys this year unless i41 becomes possible. BTW - if you did go, Piers - can I crash in your tent, since I'll drive up and that will be in a MINI.

Good mini or german mini?

The newer one, and assuming I pass my test on the 16th March.

Hmm, will have to check dates for i39.5, doubtful I'll do both though as it's a lot of cash. Would rather i40 to be honest but would be mega suck with people missing :(.

I've put the dates in the poll itself and in my post.

/sigh

heh, a mini? that seems humorous for some reason.

And probably i40 for me, depends on who'll be there

Why not i39.5? And the newer mini's are surprisingly spacious. Sound system is awesome for blasting some Chevelle out too :D

A actual chevelle would be better :D

Anything with that Chevrolet badge on it :D I'd love to get a Camaro or something like that if I lived in the US.

Driving a rwd V8 car atm it's pretty awesome :)
