About Us:
Great Escape LAN is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing awesome, fun, and friendly gaming among friends and family. All money and proceeds made from the event will be donated to charity (United Way of Sacramento) to help support our community and those in need. Great Escape LAN is meant to be a Family Friendly Event/Environment. Meaning we are not focused on competitive types of events or game play(e-sports). We do run a couple friendly tournaments for the sole purpose of entertainment. There will be a raffle and an event inspired prize give away for registered guests and participants only. For complete rules and regulations please review our rules section on the Great Escape LAN website and read over our Waiver Form. All attending guests must completely read, review, sign, and bring the waiver at check-in, in order to be let in the event. If you do not bring a waiver form, there will be extra ones on site.

Stuff to bring:
We at Great Escape LAN will provide switches, power strips, tables, and chairs. Please bring the following.

. Network cable (20 feet) - If you dont have one, we will have "some" extra's.
. Power cables for your rig (limited to 2 plugs on a power strip*)
. All your computer equipment (keyboard, mouse, monitor, headphones etc NO SPEAKERS)
. A chair of your own. (we have basic metal chairs provided)
. Food (there is plenty of food places within walking distance from the event so we are not providing any)
. Sleeping stuff (if you plan to sleep)
. Game face (most important thing)

Tournament Ideas: (Not Finalized)

TeamFortress 2 - (standard 6v6 or 9v9) Tournament settings.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - Still up in the air on what we will do with this.

Mbaxter - Your signature has been murdered mercilessly

Neelpos - I'm now expecting blip to accidentally construct a nonstop minecart that transports lava to every major forest on MC2

MJCS - If this was MC4 it is all Kosher.
