Hi folks, With Newquay LAN @ Mawgan #2 now over it is time to reflect and think about the future. To make more improvements to our future events we would like feedback from you the gamers! If you were at this event post points about the event that you thought were either positive or negative. Its important to us that we get your feedback, as we just want to make the events better and more fun for you guys! The sponsors let us down a little.. eDimensionals package is no wear to be seen, neither is 1moregame.co.uk's and Core-DSL's 2Mbps connection didnt get live to the venue soon enough.. these were all out of our hands and unfortunatly because they didnt turn up there were less prizes and goodies to give out than anticipated. But over all I enjoyed the event and thought it was great. Personally I enjoyed CoD2, DoW & Flatout! ;D So what did you think? Any reasonable ideas or improvements you can suggest?

Good point.. but take this into consideration and let us know what you think..
On our first event at the new venue in Mawgan (29th Oct 2005); the food and drink didnt sell well at all! Hardly any of it went, so we were left with loads. We left that amount for the next LAN and didnt buy any just incase it didnt sell well.. and low and behold the food and drink at this LAN didnt sell well either!
At previous LANs we had more variety, but tbh we're worried about spending more money on lots of food and drink and variety because we dont know why its not selling well anymore?
What do you think about it?

I remember at some previous events we would open the tuck shops and entire trays of pot noodles would be sold in like under 3mins. 8 / we used to sell entire boxes of snickers at events too! And in the past TWO events we havent even sold half a box I dont think. What gives

Your right about the first stuff; but over half the coke was left, and that was a lot.

Food - not alot of variety. we sell loads @ St Columb and here we dont...eh?! I think we really need to re-think what we sell and when and how we sell it - have it so that ppl can only go and eat @ set times - keep people organised and will help stop ne1 paying in 1p's..... Timing. I think there should be a set time for set games, i know some people will want to CS when we say BF2 but we can't control ppl and what they want, but i think if we have set times for each game and Tourny's and FOOD ppl wont leave early, stay longer, want to come to further LAN's and have more fun. I'm not saying lets have a skool timetable but make it know between 11-2 we are gonna have an UBER BF2 battle, and between 2-3 we are gonna feed and socialz. Gamz. BF2 wasn't played @ all at last Mawgen. EVERYONE must have legal copy patched with latest patch @ nxt lan. it is an UBER game to play @ lan or online, its like £20 @ GAME @ the mo - no excuses. People turning up, the LAN is 10-10, but some people weren't turning up till 11, 11.30. i know some people can't driver or get down to the LAN with ease but try to be on time, for the staff it makes it easier as we can sort everyone out asap and then pwn some noob ass! Network, no bash ur network was UBEr and we luv u long time for it, i think everyone should be on Gigcards @ nxt lan. they cost fark all and u can get them from the crew @ NQLAN or the website! Modding. Quite a few modded PC's @ the LAN - Gigglz fluffy case being the best by far. So should there be a small prize for best Case? Community. We have a nice forum here, MSN, Skype, email, great website(thanks Nightwalker!) and yet not even half the ppl @ the LAN are on this forum to discuss LANage. The more EVERYONE puts into the lans the better they can be, we can't improve ifu dont tell us how to! I'm happy to Skype, msn or email ppl about tourny's and if u got an idea then get a hold of me!!!

Hear, Hear!I agree with every word! One person who voiced their opinions honestly @ LAN was sparky. And we told sparks that the best way to let us know of suggestions for improvements or anything was via the forums, so it could be lsited and discussed etc.. we told him to post on the forums his feedback but he hasnt Its not much work on the gamers behalf to supply feedback on changes or improvements that they would like to see. If we tell you to post up your comments on the forum, and you dont, dont bother coming to us with more of your suggestions for changes during future events because you've been told already. Events arent the place for suggesting changes. The forums are the place for discussions on that. As for the community, what users we have had have been great friendly people. And to think of all the different people we have had to our LANs is great, but why they dont all stick around and form a decent community I dont know. Any ideas on how to improve that? Get more ppl on here? Maybe make it mandetory to register and post on the forum in order to get your ticket posted, he he. I'd really like to hear peoples ideas.. after all folks you have to remember we're only in to make it better for you!

well lads to start off yes ash and the rest of u all put a lot of time into the lans and forums. personaly i think morgan lan 1 was better than the 2nd apart from cod2 and dow they where ace but after the 2 games where played that was it everyone was playing different games in small groups there were no bf2 no css it was like everyone lost interest and when i was leaving 2 others left and said the same things to me. u need to get a list of games and say right people we are all playing this at this time and so on like back at newquay lans they where ace and making people play together in a big group will creat a better atmosphere and prob get more people on the forums. i havnt posted as much as i would like to i dont even post on my own clans forums cause i see it has wasted gamin time lol. i dont mean any of this to sound bad cause u guys do a lot to get things going and iv said b4 if u want help im off work and ill help but u dont seem interested in me helping or having anythin to do with u guys out of the lan or in the lan. so lets get things back like they used to be like newquay u guys can do it
