Yes, you can bring your speakers.

We do ask that you keep the volume at a reasonable level. If we think you are too loud, or we get complaints we will ask you to turn them down or use headphones.

Yes.

You never know, you might inspire others to follow you in your "outside of the box" type thinking. But if you bring a Mac bring your flame retardant suit. /evil grin

No

Please refrain from bringing these items.
First, you will probably not need them. And Second, they use too much of our precious power.

AWOL does not have any spare systems or monitors for you to use.

But, you can contact Greg at Nomad Gaming Center to see if they have something for you and what the price will be.

We do not provide any games for this event, so you will need to bring all the CD's for the games you wish to play. We will try to post the list of games that we will be hosting tournaments for as far in advance as we can, so that you know what games you will need to bring.

Please do NOT bring the following things to the event.

• Pets*
• Illegal Drugs
• Alcohol
• Knives of any shape or size
• Guns of any kind (real or replica)
• Any other type of weapon

Anyone found with any of the above in their possession will be removed from the event and you will not be allowed back.

*exemptions made for service animals only!

While we do not really care what you have on your PC and what your running we do have to ask that programs like "Carbonite" be turned OFF while you are at AWOL. Online backup programs eat quite a bit of bandwidth in the background and with the file sharing that is inevitable at a LAN it will start backing up pulling our network down.

We do monitor for this type of traffic but please save us the time and just turn it off.

If you are found to be running something that is hogging bandwidth you will be asked to shut it down.

There will be a door that will be unlocked in the back that will allow us to come and go.

There will also be a security guard working during those hours to prevent any mischief from happening while we are there and Action City is officially closed.

All of the arcade games will be in operation all through the event.

There will be an Action City employee there, and they do fire up some attractions from time to time. (Laser Tag, Go Cart etc..) if we can get enough interest.

They may have a pizza oven and the Sub Shop being manned by the security guard during the night if there is enough interest.

No

No outside food in Action City, No Exceptions.

You can go out to get other food if you don’t bring it into Action City.

If you have ANY dietary restrictions or medical concerns, we ask that you PLEASE contact us and we will do everything we can to fulfill your needs.

Also note that there is a section in the online registration for you to inform us of your needs.

Yes, it will be in the front of Action City to the left of the front doors as you walk out (to the right if you are facing the building).
There will also be a place for you to put your cigarette butts into when you are done.

KEEP THIS AREA CLEAN.

Be courteous and do not throw your cigarette butts on the ground!!!

You may park in the Action City parking lot. All they ask is that you do not park in the closest spots to the door.

We are making the decision that ALL PARTICIPANTS WILL PARK IN THE SPOTS FURTHEST FROM THE DOORS SO WE DO NOT INCONVENIENCE THE PAYING PATRONS OF ACTION CITY.

If we see your car in a place other than this you will be asked to move your car.

Yes!
