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:
This eliminates the Reading problem, but may be unviable for others (those doing exams spring to mind).Plan is a "large StratLAN" with 400-500 seats, no prize winning tournaments and more organised fun gaming.
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.
