    Dreamhack

    Tommorow Thursday I'm going to Dreamhack

    The worlds largest lanparty (well, they are aiming for 10 000 attendants ).

    DreamHack - Picture this: a magical realm where gamers from all walks of life unite under one gigantic roof, armed with their trusty keyboards and fueled by an insatiable passion for pixels. The glow of screens paints the air with a neon aura allowing you to experience, conquer, and share with newfound friends.
    If there's artificial intelligence, there's bound to be some artificial stupidity.

      We are only allowed 286w per seat

      And they have told us that the AC is a new and improved design utilising the nearby lake....

        286 W per seat times 10000 seats = 2.86 MW ...

        Make sure you take lots of pictures for us who live too far away to go!
