I seem to remember either Pete or Chris wibbling about one side of the room versus t'other... though that may need to be reworked if the teams are unbalanced.
That sound OK?

Yeah, we'll rack the tables out in a BF-conducive 2 rows facing each other, and go from there methinks... Should lead to some other massed games as well if we get it right... any offers? Big Wolfy game (on the intel masters map
) could be fun...

Aye I was impressed with RTCW on the science map, I wanna give it a try. I think splitting the room in two will make for some quality games.
We will be enforcing a strict 'when-we-say-get-in-this-big-f00king-game-then-you-bloody-well-join-this-big-f00king-game' rule, so be aware. Any muppets sat playing Q3 all weekend will find their MAC addresses blocked from the switches very rapidly

sounds good, and for anyone who starts moaning about not having BF1942 then remember that for each person that *does* have a legit copy of bf1942 theres an extra CD with it that can be used on another machine to play, that is of course unless there is "another way" of doing things

Far be it from me to encourage lining the coffers of EA's bulging warchest, but BF42 really is a game everyone should own, so if you don't have a copy go buy one you tight ghets

indeed. BF1942 rocks - and the new Road to Rome map pack will make it rock even more... just wait till those mods come out! cya later CS
new map called coral sea is nifty...
and some other custom maps will be in order (if they play well)...
