Nor Easter 2006: The night before

Postby ctjoyce » Mon May 01, 2006 3:02 pm

As you may or may not know, April 29~30 is a Lan Party called "Nor Easter." It is held in North Readding MA. and gamers from all over the country come to compete in various turnies, and just have fun. Unfortunately this year wasn't as good as last, however its still worth shareing.

Lets get into the story. So friday night my friend teddy brings his PC to my house for some last minute tweaking, and a bit of LANing.

Sheila with 3 new UV cathodes, and a new 90CFM exaust fan, and lots and lots of FrozenCPU.com boxes ♥

Teddy working in his case, installing new cables, replaceing molexs and adding a 3rd coat of UV paint to his PCI slots.

18 Bottols of MTN Dew, 8 of Gateraide, 24 of BAWLS, 24 of Water, 12 Cans of coke, Case of Twix, Huge thing of cashews, 5lb bag of Jolly Ranchers, Case of Doritos, and we still had to go out and get Dominos, and Oreos.

So we get my system all ready to go, and start working on the big project of the night, sleeving Teddy's 20 ATX connection. Unfortunately in doing so, he forgot which wires went where (it was 1:30AM so you know). Anyway it was kinda out of luck though, as he was looking for an excuse to go out and get a good 450W one anyway.

The next moarning my other friend Danny and his computer Tagie showed up. Unfortunately whilst installing a new heatsink, he managed to break 4 pins off his AMD 3700+ so I had to install his new one.

Now that everyone is here, and we have 2 of 3 computers running its time to head over to Staples so that I can use my discount to get him one. Also good thing that they open at 8:30 for employees.
