# 1 Consoles are big, DO IT BIG!
# 2 Consoles are not PC Gaming, We understand that, but do not neglect that side of the events. Make sure they all work together, time is everything at the lan events. Please try to schedule along the same time-line as PC’s so that people can bounce between in different tournaments.
# 3 Not too much noise. Make sure that people can play together and that we can still hear across the room. Make them wear headsets or something.
# 4 NO DDR or games like that in the PC area. its hard to play with the screen bouncing.
# 5 Ask for help. If you need it please ask, (You started off well with this post)
# 6 Get sponsors. If you have enough, Help others help everyone.
# 7 Dont win your prizes. Whats the point of trying to bring in new people if your going to win the free stuff.. If someone new wins a prize then 99% of the time they will become an active forum and gaming club member. ITS PROVEN!
#8 plan for the lans, PLAN layouts, Plan Brackets, Prize Handouts, and PLEASE plan for the safely arrival of equipment and all the needed items.
Most importantly have fun with it. Nobody likes a grouch.
