Term 2 LAN 2

Wed 04 Mar

Once again we hit that time of term when a weekend can be wholly devoted to the honest, clean and outdoors fun of a good LAN party. For those of you who haven't been before (or in a little while), you might want to read the what to do [0] and bring [1] guides on the website, an indispensable tool for all potential attendees. I would also like to draw your attention to the Pizza Order [2] on the website, which we'll be making from Dominos and should arrive 9 or 10PM on Friday. At 50% off, ther…

Wed 18 Feb

Once again it's the time of year that our Annual General Meeting comes around. We'll be assembling our conclave later this evening at 1830 in rooms R0.03/04 in the Ramphal building, and I'd like to wholeheartedly encourage you to attend if you find yourself even slightly partial to the future direction of the society. There may be snackies, and in true compsoc tradition a trip to a purveyor of beverages seems likely to follow.

First LAN of Term 2

Sat 10 Jan

Reasonably quiet week for CompSoc.. except of course for LAN next weekend! Signups are still open, but places are obviously being taken up, so head over to the events page if you don't want to miss out on a weekend of epic procrastination. (You might want to check out the pizza order event also, so that you don't starve while you game.)
