Greetings, loyal Respawnites,



Respawn LAN v18 is launching tonight (Friday); registrations are opening at 9PM sharp! Make sure you register early in preparation for the event (October 9-10) - we will fill up fast.

The entry fee is $35, and as with last LAN, we will be offering prepaid tickets to the first 250 people to opt in. PayPal and direct deposit are available. If you choose to prepay, you will automatically be allocated a seat at the event so that you don’t miss out if you rock up late. If you prepay and want to pick your seat / general location / have a group booking, please go to this thread!

We’re working on some absolutely sensational stuff this event, including some pro-gaming action and some big prizes to go with it but we’re not quite ready to announce yet. We’d love to tell you how awesome this is going to be, but we think it’s best that you take our word for it. Our competition line-up will include:

Call Of Duty 4 5v5
Counter-Strike: Source 5v5
Team Fortress 2
FlatOut 2, with a $150/50 prize for 1st/2nd place thanks to The Hub, a net cafe in Epping

We’ve got some amazing motorsport (and in particular Bathurst) themed AFK comps, with the traditional (ghetto ping pong, iron gut) and some new ones (wheelie chair time trials, MS Paint-athon, design your own V8 super car). Tank’s also been working overtime to bring the event some delicious new food and drinks! We’re happy to announce that we’ll be serving delicious hot dogs, meat pies, and sausage rolls, as well as hot beverages like coffee and hot chocolates throughout the event. Super Tasty!

On top of all of this, next Thursday we're hosting an online Tron competition. It will be run in a similar format to that of the Respawn fun comps, and will have a prize provided by TT eSports. Check the forums early next week for some more information on it.

We’re more than happy to answer any questions you have - jump on our forums or use the ‘Contact Us’ page.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Broken link. For anyone who is reading this before it is fixed but is too lazy to backspace yourself: http://respawn.com.au/forums/index.php?showtopic=1636


--Edit-- This post is now invalid since Zardoz fixed Squid's post

Because Squid likes to make love to Google Docs, the quotation marks in the URL were of a Google Docs nature and didn't get understood correctly in HTML source. I've fixed this so Squid can play Worms Reloaded instead.

” is different to "!

Good luck everyone!

question, are the pre-pay spots for paypal automatically updating the list or will that be done manually?

Edit: Thx Alioth question answered

There still might be, those are just the advertised comps. If you look at previous Respawn's, there are competitions run which have not been announced in the main news posts

Could you please tell me more about this "Design your own V8 Supercar" competition?

Paper! pencils! textas! drawing! creativity! wooo! (i'll put up a proper AFK comp thread)

Can I request further information on this?
