THANKS FOR SUPPORTING CHARITY WITH ECL!

Emerald City Resurrection Summer 2019 rose from the ashes June 21st - 23rd, 2019 (Friday 2:00pm to Sunday 2:00pm) at the Angel of the Winds Arena in Everett, Washington.

Last event (Seattle Home Show) we raised over $3,800 for K9 Warriors and this event we'll do even better!

The event runs overnight both days, with an equipment lockdown from 10pm - 7am each night (no equipment may be removed).

Be prepared for a full scale LAN party unchained and unfettered - true Emerald City LAN Style just like the garage LANs of yore. There'll be pizza, soda, and some friendly competition. We'll be running the usual smattering of tournaments and giving away a ton of the best prizes in our famous prize drawing from PC components to accessories. Come prepared for your favorite games as well as our mix of unorthodox tournaments and unofficial after-parties. See you there!

Never been to a B.Y.O.C.? A “Bring Your Own Computer” LAN party is an event where gamers come together with their own computers to play video games in a live environment with friends. LAN parties are a part of gaming culture. They’re a great chance to meet new people, and share your passion for gaming with fellow enthusiasts. Purchasing a ticket for the LAN gets you a prize drawing ticket, 2 slices of pizza, a soda, a seat, table space, power, and internet access.

FAQ

Is outside food & drink allowed?
You can only bring in a water bottle - this is a venue policy, unfortunately.
So for VIP tickets, can we sit with our friends?
We don't have the website functionality at this moment to swap seats between VIP and not, so go ahead and buy a full VIP seat (Z area) and put in a support ticket to have it moved. https://lanfest.intel.com/support/new-ticket
Looking at the seating chart whats the red and purple seats?
Right now the Red and Purple BYOC seating sections are reserved. They are pending Fire Marshall and Building Manager approval, so we can't sell them yet.
Is there going to be a place for folks to park for the entire weekend?
Yes, there is an unload area (10m limit) and parking available. Cost is estimated at $15 or less for the duration of the event.
Is there a prize pool for ECL Summer 2019?
TBD.
What is the equipment and security policy for the show?
All show attendees will be required to present ID to security to move equipment during regular hours. During equipment lockdown (10pm - 7am), no equipment may be moved. Equipment includes everything that is not a personal bag (purse/backpack). All bags are open to inspection at entrances / exits.
How are walk-up registrations handled?
The front desk will be available 2p - 7p Friday, 7am - 7pm Saturday.
What games will probably be played in events?
Most of the event will be unstructured free play, with organized events in-between. Players use our Discord to find others to play with. The organized events are either Free to Play or one of the most popular games among attendees, and often have ticket prizing. We are aiming for at least one cash prize tournament, details TBA.
What if I have allergies or dietary restrictions?
There is a field when buying a ticket to specify any concerns, and we will attempt to get an alternative meal available. We're a charity on a very restricted budget though, so expect to want to visit the neighboring restaurants as another option.
How can I get the "Attendee" flair on Discord if I'm attending the LAN?
Attendee flair is updated every 24hrs or so. As long as we can match your Discord name in this server to the Discord Flair text field on the ticket, you'll see it soon!
