Hello,

We've been hard at work in organizing a new competition at vLan2, which is the biggest LAN prize ever had in the Warrnambool area. Java the Asian & Stonegrill restaurant will be putting up a $200 cash prize for someone very lucky.

http://www.velocitylans.com/files/java.jpg

How it will work is that, for every competition you compete in you will receive points based on your placings in that competition. Consistency will be the key here, for example if you place 2nd in all the competitions you could have a chance to win the cash prize.

This is the scoring table which the points will be based on.

Places - Points
1st - 20
2nd - 18
3rd - 16
4th - 14
5th - 12
6th - 10
7th - 8
8th - 6
9th - 4
10th - 2
10th+ 1

By winning this you will be crowned LAN champion!

Cheers,
Jesse Kelly / vLan.Burnz

G'day,

Due to our venue getting double booked yet again, we have had make an important change. The LAN dates are now 24th & 25th of July.

It was either delay the start of the LAN on the 17th and start around 4PM in the afternoon or move the LAN date.

So please remind anyone who is coming along that the new dates are the 24th & 25th of July.
We're very sorry about this change but it was beyond our control.

Cheers,
Jesse Kelly / vLan.Burnz
