The GeeZers invite you to join them when they converge on St. Louis, Missouri for the second annual FogieLAN. Being held at the Holiday Inn Airport, FogieLAN 2 will happen August 29th through September 1st, 2003. That's Labor Day weekend, so you have a four day weekend!

Joining MasterGnr in this year's planning is the Godfather of the Saturday Night T2 pickup, Flyguy. He has aggressively begun to gather sponsors and prizes, and even at this early time has gotten the support of Altec Lansing, AMD and Alienware. While we recognize there are several lan events occurring this summer, it’s never too early to start planning and with that in mind, we are opening a pre-registration. We expect the cost of admission to be $50, with rooms going for $69 (up to 4 people in a room) a night. That covers the entire weekend of fun and fragging. Expect a tournament or two of Tribes2 (and America’s Army too), as well as the support of the Interweb Broadcast Network who will be bringing live coverage of FogieLAN all weekend long. And don't forget the trademark FogieLAN T-shirt with your own name on it. The t-shirt was a great memento for last year's party.

Feel free to ask any of the FogieLAN Attendees about their experience during last year's event. FogieLAN is about meeting the people you play with. It’s about sharing a beer (or favorite beverage) with the person you chat with in mIRC. It’s about getting together and sharing stories, just like a couple of ol' fogies. The best part is that you will also create more stories!

We are still working on making FogieLAN something you will truly enjoy. As the time quickly passes, we will be keeping our attendees updated (via mailing list) with all additions of prizes, sponsors and important news items. For now, we need to get an idea of participation. If you want to attend, please head to our FogieLAN Registration Page and get on the list!


last year, was a VERY good time. Arrive fri night, drink until 4 in the morning, play all day Sat, pack up sunday.

1 more day this year, will start getting sleep now.

drat, St Louis might be a bit far for me....unless my money holds up..

isnt fogie lan 4 old peopl :}}}
us0r.e2.
damnit! you couldn't have it in KC could you? now I can't go
Its 250 miles from KC to STL....

you could walk it...just start the 1st of August
Now this is only 3hrs from where I live I may just make this.

Hmmm I think I could pull this off. Any Raptards sign up or express interest yet?

UVALAN is like a 20+ hr drive for me from Iowa, but St. Louis is about 6 so no problem as long as funds and family plans don't interfere.
"too cool for non-Rumptards"

Does this conflict with UVA5?

If not, I will be there.

Come to ShazbotLan smaqqor..,.
uva5 is in mid summer i think, fogie lan is august
nah kaiser not too cool, just figured if I'm going to drive a few hours I'd like to meet some of the guys I've played with for the last 2 years

Meeting you and others I've played against and been on good terms with would also be a plus.
wow...shortest sticky on record

another twist of the year?

nah...but thats cool

re-sticky please

nah kaiser not too cool, just figured if I'm going to drive a few hours I'd like to meet some of the guys I've played with for the last 2 years

Yea, I can see that. I hope this doesn't conflict with UVA5 :/

nCn has had a lan for 2 years in a row, so I've been unfortunate enough to meet some of those guys. It's good to meet those you've played against.

I'll have to wait and see how UVA5 is scheduled before i make my decision as to which to attend, but i'll definitely be going to one of the 2.

Woohoo, This'll only be 1000 mile drive. That's a whole 200 miles shorter than Austin was! And Bobrath, if I can drive from Tampa, you can drive from Houston so you better be there! =P
:/ bump
931 miles vs. 187 miles....

Sorry Kil, I'm just not the freak that you are! Now if I could find someone else drivin up from Houston, then it might be more doable. That's 15 hours in the car... Don't know if anyone can put up with me that long!

I *should* be able to come, if I dont get sick halfway through the party again. But it'd be worth it to hear nordramor yell 'THE TOWER! THE TOWER!' through closed doors again.
Wow! The FogieLAN is being held only 5mins away from where i live. I can't miss this Count me in
I signed up. Can prolly go as long as I don't have a business trip that week.

edit* oh yea...and as long as uva5 isn't during that time.

Fly and juz are planing on getting me shitfaced and then taking me out to some clubs... HURRAH FOR LANS!
I would go to meet Fly and all of you but too far.

Probably UVA though.
Glad I caught this thread.. I drove to uva4 just to experience it, but this is 20 miniutes away from my house. Something tells me.. why the hell not.

I'll go and represent the -M- if I can.

Cool a lan close to home. How many are you expecting? How many attended last year?

we are planning on 100 minumum and have room for 150 i believe.

Also, we have sponsors for this years LAN. AlienWare hopped on board incredibly quick. the AMD rep for that area has been in contact, and is putting together a package for the lan. Altec-Lansing.... as i type this, there is a brand new, 2 speaker w/sub sitting here i got UPS today.

I have a list of sponsors and have only been refused buy IBM (was hoping to get them to whore up some optical mice or something cool, gg's though)

And i can promise this, if your in the mood to get hammered the first night and have fun, it will be no problem! lol
yes i seem to have a problem of hanging out and drinking by the pool till 5 in the morning
