nerd infestation in the atrium (1 Viewer)

[lcf]

i was bored - and a friend and I were making up captions for the 'gamers' in a gallery
we came across this is - i thought it looked terribly familiar - it's the Atriums. They have LANs in the atrium? I had no clue - looks pretty cool though heheh however rocking up with an Apple laptop would probably result in bleeding as 100s of PC users throw blank media at me *ducks*

woah excuse my ignorance but what exactly are they doing? do they sit there and play games or do they verse each other? and what is the point - does someone win at the end of the day or something?

lol, so ungeeky, cute. definitely female if anyone is still curious

Basically its a giant 'LAN' (networked computers) and they all vs each other in a plethora of games to find out who really is the Australian Id- err win stuff, as well as sharing movies/series/games/anime/porn.

Think of it like any other 'convention' this time its for computer geeks!

What's an SGL?

 

[H?]

Sydney Gamers League

 

[glitterfairy]

!!!! holy crap, there's an actual Gamer's League?

Ok. That's scary. Waaaaaay too hardcore for me.

 

[AsyLum]

I haven't seen anyone in MQ like the people in those mug shots - scary

 

[prusso]

been there done that

no longer run at the uni as it costs to much to rent

Yeah, I knew that they had them in the atrium, but I've never been to one there. I only have ever gone to one SGL, and it was hosted in Strathfield in like 2003. These guys are serious gamers... Optus CS servers were nothing in comparison.
