Don't Forget Your Barcode

barcodeBefore you pack down for epic.TWO don't forget to print your barcode for the LAN. This helps to speed up the check-in process as we can just scan your barcode sheet rather than working out the right spelling for your nickname!

To print your barcode go to My Account -> Event Bookings and you'll see the option there.

Also remember that if don't look clearly over 18 you will be asked to prove your age so that you can use the bar facilities at the LAN, so make sure you bring some sort of approved ID to the event.

Not long now, see you all on Thurs!

QuizTime to get out those revision guides, because we can now confirm the quiz rounds for epic.TWO!

The team has been slaving away for the last few weeks and taking on board the feedback from the last quiz, we've made some changes and improvements!

Here are the rounds, in no particular order:

  • General Knowledge
  • Current Affairs
  • Gaming News
  • Gaming Music
  • Film & TV Music
  • Catchphrase
  • Photochop
  • 2 x Bonus Rounds
  • Film & TV News
  • General Music

The quiz will be taking place on the Saturday night of epic.TWO. As last time there will be team size cap, at the moment it's still set as 5 players, but we may review that. Still planning on making sure there aren't any huge teams to give those attending in smaller groups a chance!

Competition 3 - Capture the LAN

PhotoWe're on a roll here! Our next mini competition for epic.TWO is called "Capture the LAN" and this one is for you budding photographers out there!

This one is quite simple, all you have to do is take a photograph and submit it to a folder on the FTP at the LAN. The photograph has to be something that captures the atmosphere of an epic.LAN and sums it up in one single image.

So this one wont be judged on who has the biggest camera, but more about who snaps that moment that just captures what epic.LAN is all about! Once again, we'll find a prize for the winner and show off some of the best entries in our gallery. Closing will be 12noon on the Sunday of epic.TWO.

News CameraHere's a chance for you to show off your creative skills at epic.TWO!

There will then be 24 hours in which to make and submit a video (max 3mins) which will then be shown and judged during the quiz on Saturday night.

The winner of this competition will win one of the prizes from our event sponsors!
