I'm fairly sure I could make it as long as the train tickets from Exeter/Lancaster arn't too expensive.

I'll be at university by then so I wouldn't mind take a weekend out from "studying"

1) Birmingham is easy enough to get to whether I'm in Staines or Leicester
2) I can always ask for more loans, or get an overdraft
3) my rents let me go to Manchester when i was 18, on my own to people off the internet that I'd never seen before (though maybe i didn't tell them exactly what i was doing).
4) if I'm old enough to live on my own 60% of the year I'm old enough to make a wee trip to birminghamland.
5) NO COSPLAY PLZ if you must do it, save it for the bedroom
6) this has so much potential for disaster.
7) unless you can't speak english what does race have to do with it??
I'd love to blatantly wallhack at a place like this, then deny it or blame my bro or cat or something.
9) sounds like a good time to learn tf2
10) c'mon, who ends at 9?

I would defo be interested, but I would defo make it Dec/Jan time so it gives us all time to get everything organised. In the few LAN's ive been to, there have been rooms dedicated for sleeping in. I dont know if there's anything in the building your looking at. But I would defo make it along.

Has anyone else read the forums on there site?
Seems to be very poor service, such at 3 differnt versions of the games on the PC's, Broken equipment , advertised things unavailable.
ALso you can bring your own mice and such as long as they connect into the keyboard??!!??
How many mice connect to the fecking keyboard?
Otherwise its a 5 quid fee to get access to the PC.

Does anyone from that way have any experience of the place?

If they're that worred Bourne then get yourself a chastity belt =P And because i like the numbers system...
1. I'm in England
2. I'm so poor a little more does matter anyway as long as they accept dust and promises as payment
3. My parents already think i'm odd (i once went larping, if anyone knows what that is!)
4. I'm 21
5. 20 is a way better number than anything you could come up with =D

Many keyboards have USB ports built into them so presumably any USB mouse would do

You can bring your own mice and headsets free of charge provided they plug into the keyboard and you do not need access to the PC.

If you need access to the PC we do allow this however there is a tech fee of £5 to do so.


thats from their forum, bit strange askin for 5 quid jus to plug ur mouse into a usb slot.

wot about the place someone mentioned on their forum gamerbase link in london or does it have to be in birmingham

Presumably the reason this is being held in Birmingham is because it's in the middle of the UK (well England anyway). UK members of this community come from all over the UK and not just London so holding the event in the middle seems the fairest way to do things.

I've got to go to Birmingham with work for the Conservative Party conference at the end of September ! I might be able to check out that Omega place. I know some people who filmed there earlier this year too. Hendrix lives nearby as well .....

Is there any mileage in having 2 locations - 1 North (well, Brumsville is plenty far north to me !) and 1 South that could play each other ? Then we just need to balance the numbers as best we can. We could even let other people join in online if needs be. Or does this defeat the whole object ?

Lugging kit about and having youngsters to worry about will be a monster headache.

Oddball, I live in the south east as well, and by the time this is sorted out, i should be driving
If not, my dad'll be taking me, so i'm sure he'd be up for giving you a lift.
Where abouts are you?

Another comment/thought i had was:
(cheeky one i know, but). . . You could do a kind of "Induction" to some Victims while there, as that'd add to the whole "I'm joining UKMD euphoria"
And, as it would seem to be a great way of advertising UKMD as a gaming community, i say we invite anyone we know who plays games and isn't already UKMD, and get them all involved, and "Victimised" so to speak. . .
Loving that T-shirt idea that was mentioned up above. . . Maybe if we all gave Moggie or one of the core admins some extra money, we could get a good ol' goody bag (T-shirt, party popers ) etc. . .
?
Sorry, i know i'm kinda getting into this a bit deep, but if you need any extra help with anything Moggie, i'd be more than willing to put some time in to help

I just asked my mate if he'd like to go and he said yes!
So that may be me and a mate on the train

Would be £38.30 return from Doncaster to Birmingham on train. 3 hour journey! ouch

Awwwwws, Bourne's a youngster .

That is rather a lot of money, plus all the extra, so you're going to be looking at about £70 to £80 in total . . .
(Plus accomodation IF that's the idea) etc. . .
Good luck with that one mate o.O

you are under 15 and do not have an ID you will need to be accompanied by an adult with an ID to sign up - But only on your first visit after that you do not need adult supervision.


If you are actually 15, does this still apply?

I live in Kent Wolf, Margate to be exact, still dunno if my parent will let me go with some loons i met other the internet, but ill give it a shot

I agree with Tele on the fact it should be in London, easier for me to get to then somwhere up in the midlands

FYI jus re read my comment didnt point out clearly enough that i wouldnt be seen dead at that TF2 meet lol!!

I think its a great idea and will have to think about dates and costs, plus its a massive upside if we dont have to lug gear around with us!
