Rather worringly, I've stepped up to the plate to organise this thing. Nobody's raised any objections or alternatives, so I'm very scared to announce:
Location
I've secured the use of one of my boss's houses for the weekend (he's not as rich as that makes him sound). As it's not my place, for now all you need to know is it's near Basingstoke, in Hampshire. Yes, in the south. For the regulars it's actually about as near to Basingstoke as Chez Famine is to Middlesbrough. We've got the house for free, but donations are welcome as it's not my 'leccy we're using.
There's enough parking for about a dozen cars. Shops are about a 10 minute walk away.
Date
Spring Bank Holiday - Saturday 29th - Monday 31st May. If people need to, arriving Friday and leaving Tuesday is an option.
Sleeping
We can probably accommodate everyone at the location, so long as some people don't mind sleeping in tents.There's a few beds, and I can provide a double inflatable mattress and a couple of camping beds, but if you own something to sleep on, please bring it.
If you can't stand the thought of being within 50 feet of a snoring Sureboss (understandable), there's a few local B&Bs - but they're all £50 a night minimum. There's also a Premier Inn and a Travelodge a few miles away which are a bit cheaper.
So, Interest:
Definite Yes
Roo
Famine
Jondot
daan
Sureboss

The Grim Reaper
Car-less
EXelero
Specialized
Definite No
Venari
VEXD
Definite Maybe

Equipment
I'm aiming for a double LAN - 12 of everything, or one full system for everyone, whichever is less.
11x PS2
10x GT4
14x tellys
8x wheels (3x G25, 4x DFP, 1x DFGT)
7x DS2
17x memory card
3x headphones
4x Network adaptor, if necessary
We also need someone who knows how to make half a dozen PS2s speak to each other. I can make a PS2 talk to a telly most of the time, but that's about it.
Edit: I've kinda lost track of the equipment list, but I'm fairly sure we'll have enough for everyone.
-------------------------------------------
Testing
As mentioned in the other thread, I now work on a farm which takes up almost all my daylight hours. Therefore, after that and Scouts I have little time left. I'll do some testing, but if there's any requests for series past to resurface or volunteers to test cars, let me know. Ta.
I've probably forgotton something. Let me know that too.
