MR. Dan is suposed to be working on what people need to bring and what we need for the lan gaming.

what ever it is we can Probabbly use one of my systems for the game Server but we need a switch or hubs, pelple should bring there on cat5 cable, nic, Power strip, PC, there OWN copy of Games, drivers disk, spare underware, monitor, keyboard, mouse, and headphones. I have a linksys wireless point thingy if it is needed.

I probably missed a bunch of things.

i have a few questions. I didn't think orginally that i would be able to make it, but, my girlfriend thinks we might be able to do it. So a couple questions. Where exactly is it, and how close to an airport? If we fly up, how much would it cost to get to your place? We don't want to rent a car cause that would put a damper on our money situation. We were thinking if it isn't to far from the airport that maybe we could pay one of you fine people out there to pick us up ;) We would pay you to cover your trouble and gas. The only problem is then we would need a ride bacl to the airport. This is why we want to know how close the airport is. We don't want to put anyone out. We are just exploring the options.

ohair...about 20 min from my house or closer to an hour from my dads. Millwalkie mitchel airport will be a Little closer to my dads cause he is on the border of WI and IL probably only 30 min. Midway is Furthest. LOL I jsut thought about it I can tell Bobby(a guy renting a room from my dad) to go pick everyone up LOL Poor guy. But Dont really worry about it if you can get to an airport we will find a way.
