Hi there. I am part of Unity, a Black Ops team that will be participating in the NGL. Monster Energy has sponsored us 3 cases of energy drinks. I was wondering whether or not we will be allowed to take this into the arena, as it is a sponsor? Thanks!

Maybe this was mentioned before, i did a word search for "lockdown" and got nothing so appologies if you did mention it, but if there is going to be a lockdown like last year, please specify :)

[Reforged]

By Lockdown are you referring to the time you are allowed to leave and arrive with your pc?

[Dark Prince]

No lockdown when they close the dowme for the night, no one in, no one out (i think) im sure they head something along these lines last year

Lockdown? Where ever did you learn Engrish?

Security: Yes there will be guards. The safety of your equipment is however still your responsibility. So don’t leave your cell phone, mp3 player or camera on the table while you go for lunch. This will lead to unnecessary temptation. Take your mouse, headphones etc with you when you leave. Ask a buddy to keep an eye. No PC’s or monitors will enter or leave after 22h00 at night. Registration opens at 8h00 on Saturday morning. Laptops also count as PC’s.

HI GUYS!!!! huge problem and as NAG LAN just around the corner and im stressed!!!

my brother and I bought the new samsung Syncmaster SA350 and they dont use a same power cord as the previous monitors and pcs use, they use a 2-pin plag and my brother's got a 3-pin plug(bug its not red) ..... what can we do?

[[rJ] C0ST4]

I've spoken to an organiser and they can’t lock the doors as it will be a fire hazard and legally they can’t do that so you can still move in and out however as stated before, no PC's may move in and out from 10pm till 8am

Hi,
I did read this somewhere before but I really can't remember where and nor can I find it again, just want to know at which times are we allowed to leave with pc's? What will be the latest time at night that you are allowed to leave with your pc if allowed? A few of my friends needs to leave on Saturday.
Thx keep up the good work

Hey guys. Seeing as this is my first rAge, I am wondering how many space there will be per player on the tables? Also will I be allowed to take a pillow in? :P

[Garfield]

@chXn Ja jy mag sleeping utencils vat :)

[Tankiouse]

chxn, its a standard size folding table where two people sit at one table. There is usually more than enough space.
