If I'm planning on playing in a tournament, when do I have to be at the LAN and all setup?

Instructions on how to register for tournaments will be found on the Discord.gg/roclan once at the event. Be at the event at least one hour before the tournament starts. Tournament registration will be closed at that point, and teams will be asked to checkin in person. Plan to be on time, or miss out. Find more info in the competition guide located in our Handbook. Once the tournament starts plan to stay at the event until the tournament finishes, absent teams will be given losses if not ready for matches in time.

Is there going to be internet access?

Yes. Internet at LANFest is for gaming/streaming only. Bandwidth is limited and ports may be blocked. Network will be heavily monitored, and IPs found misbehaving will cut off the network. If your computer is disconnected please report to the help desk, you may be asked to stop certain activities for the health of the network. There will be a patch server with patches for all the popular games. LANFest works hard to insure good internet access for all attendees, and may have some simple instructions for attendees at the event.

I'm having network issues, but don't worry, I'm a sys admin. I got this.

No you don't! Do not touch or disconnect any cables to the switches other than your own. We don't care how well you can clean malware off Grandma's 10 year old computer, you do not touch our equipment. Once again, this can lead to a bad time for your entire table. Simply come talk to our friendly help desk.
