The meals included with Survival Kits for AWOL LAN have went through some upgrading from what was offered at past events. If the changes are not satisfactory, a refund for the Survival Kit upgrade price will be provided without penalty if requested by
2/3/2012. For those that did not purchase a Survival Kit because the meals in the past were lemons, look at the new offerings and see if they are worth a seat upgrade.
Instead of the seven deadly si...pre-scheduled meals picked by 'the man', the new meals are:
- Bottomless soda for 36 hours (this is available ala carte for $5 to those that downgrade or already have a standard seat)
- Friday breakfast (donuts, coffee, and juice beginning at 10am)
- Friday lunch (pizza served mess hall style)
- Saturday breakfast (Aqua Lounge buffet, as in a real buffet)
- A $25 Action City card that can be used to purchase food any time the Action City kitchen is open (the card replaces Friday dinner, Midnight 'snack,' Saturday lunch, and Saturday dinner)
OK, 'the man' still picked three of the meals, however the $25 action city card may be combined with others in case a group wants to split a Gorilla Pizza or may be used for Action City attractions. Instead of pancake-shaped beverage coasters for Brinner, you have the power to choose nachos and go-karts. Has dinner time come around and you are on a 50 frag streak or in the middle of a perfect run on the AWOL TrackMania track? You can eat later instead of when some lame duck calls suey.
If the additional choices and flexibility in the meals are not your bag, the cost of the Survival Kit above the base registration cost will be refunded without penalty or a night in the box if the request is received by
2/3/2012. However, that means you will have just a base seat without the other goodies that come with the Survival Kits.
To summerize, instead of 'the man' picking all your meals from a twisted list while wearing a blindfold and also dictating when you have to eat them because the 1v1 StarCraft II tournament must start precisely at 7:00 p.m. or else it won't be a fair tournament, you get Friday breakfast when you arrive, Friday pizza lunch (the only meal with a set time), Saturday breakfast (served 6am-9am) and a $25 Action City card for the freedom to eat or do what you want, when you want, how you want...like a boss.
See you all at AWOL 19 in just 42 more days!
