The on-site hotel is happy to allow loads of room sharing (ie. bring an airbed, split price between 4). Multiplay have block booked it for cheaper/flat rates as it is, but the downside being that there aren’t many rooms.

The Q&A was earlier, not sure/doubt this was entirely addressed. Will have to check into the options.

Yes! Now I won’t get chucked out and have to sleep on my desk with damn cyber waking me up every half hour.

I’m not fussed about paying hotel prices but the lack of rooms is a concern.

No way am I camping…been there and done that.

All my clanmates are male so sharing a room isn’t really an option for me. I don’t drive either so any hotel needs to be within walking distance (about 15 mins max especially considering I might be going home on my own late unless others are walking that way).

I presume from this that you’re a girl (otherwise why would you mind sharing a room with guys?) If so you’ll find plenty of girls at LAN from tf2 specifically who might be willing to split the cost of a room, I know two of the girls from our group last august did this, they split a room together when they barely knew each other before LAN just to keep costs down and cos it’s easier to share with a girl you barely know than a guy you barely know! Also, about the walking/driving I imagine there will be a bus or a lot of taxis going back and forth from local hotels, so you can always jump in one of those with someone, I tend to grab a taxi with whoever is nearby or if I recognise them slightly when I get one from the uni accom normally :d the community around tf2 and multiplay in general are really nice, don’t be afraid to be a little cheeky and ask to share!

Not sure I like the idea of a 4 person room nymthae, I kinda liked having my own room and shower, I guess we’ll find out more at sting LAN and see what happens!

Overall though I think this is an excellent move, the new venue looks amazing and I can only imagine that as LAN grows the venue will allow it way more space to grow into, plus all dat parking!

Yeah, I hear you. There are apparently quite a few hotels around, according to my friend who lives around there. Distances and availability need looking at though, but i’ll try and gather everything together soon.

Looks nice. Be good if this helps to sort out the internet issues that seemed to happen a lot at Telford.

@Nym:

Christ, ok I’ll break the ice and ask THE question:

How much will the beer cost? Give me that sexy price list you did last time. :D

Will there be a shuttle bus service around the wider area, visiting the bigger hotels plus town centre?
