Woooo! I cant wait :D

Say Miktar, how long does it take to actually get the whole dome setup before the event? just curious :)

[Miktar]

A few weeks, at most.

[Coolhand]

Game On!

[dislekcia]

Man... I kept looking for my stand :(

-D

[Icenflame]

ahhh yes I will enjoy the drive up to jhb from CT tomo... and then friday its rAge day !!! sweetness....

[CLAN_DiCE]

I'm calling shotgun on the same I chair was camped out at last year...


Just joking... but its looking REALLY GOOD!!!
Judging by the floor plan it will be in 2 years time that there won't be an expo... just rows upon rows of gamers...

[bloomy]

Imagen how big the open lan would be that year 3000 Man Lan.

[-Bouncer-]

Can't wait! Only 1 and a half days to go!! :)

[NeoN]

...3000 Man Lan.
*gets all excited and stuff* ^_^

Forgot to mention before, thanks for posting up the mother-load of piccies Miktar - it only helped to get me more psyched. ;)

That's great for you - it takes us longer, due logistics. Of course, it takes 2 days to set up the walls, it takes longer to lay out the power, the lan power, the lan cables...

We're not an auto show. :P

Doubt it - the LAN alone cannot pay for the Dome. :P We *need* exhibitors more than LANners.

[NeoN]

Oh man, had no idea. Hmmm... will be interesting to see what the ideal balance between LaN-ers and exhibitors will be down the line (ie. when the amount of LaN-ers the prev year are the same for the current year).

Judging but the pics.... I'm guessing about between 1800 and 2000.
A problem could also arise where rAge is a victim of is own success. That will happen where there will be more displays than what was previous. Where due to the success of rAge more "suppliers" want to show case their supplies/products... leading to the LAN section to shrink to allow for more space.

Its a good and bad thing. More attention gets drawn to rAge but less LAN-ers can be allowed...

Holy cr@p how expensive is the dome +/-??
Just wondering

[Miktar]

A lot. That's all I'm going to say.
