|
|
Highest:
|
Hard to exactly say but there were a couple of Duron's around the 700 mark with a GeForce DDR and a couple of GeForce2 MX's.
|
|
Lowest:
|
Maybe Eraser's comp which we believe may have been a K6-2 350 with some video card.
|
|
Games Played:
|
It seems that this lan the only games that were played were Action Quake,
Quake 3, and at least 5 hours or so of Worms Armageddon. Towards the end of
the Worms Armageddon run we were playing the rounds with no weapons or utilities
except for unlimited holy grenades and super sheep.
|
|
Network:
|
Since Frenchie had not yet got around to networking his house which would
enable the servers to be left upstairs and each switch to be plugged into
a wall socket the network layout was almost the same as the previous lan
here with the use of Frenchie and Byte's 8 port switches and MooMoo's 5
port switch.

For a lan that was sort of organised the night before it was successful but
although the list above has 11 people on it the maximum present at any stage
was 9. All except for Eraser and Byte arrived in the afternoon but Dragonball
and Snuffy left in the early evening before Eraser turned up and then he also
left before Byte turned up.
A first for a lan was that we utilised MooMoo's webcam/digital camera for
taking photos as we couldn't be bothered getting a film and them loading
it into a real camera. As such the photos are not the usual quality.

|
Too many to list standing or sitting doing unidentified things.
|
|
In the late morning we have Mik doing something.
|
|
Around about the same time we have Byte doing suspicious things to Frenchie's computer.
|
|
And some computers without owners...
