Sounds like you had a great time. Lucky dog, I haven't been to a lan since 2002.

This was my first LAN party of this size. I am going to make it a point to start going to the larger ones just the same as I go to smaller events at friends homes. This is all based solely on my money situation too. But yeah, it was a great time.
