Where is this place exactly? I've walked twice down by Vinny's chipper,past Clan and Stranos etc checked the other side of road by the Bamboo takeaway and Kebab place but no sign of the joint?

DRakE

Anima

Bollacks, I've a 21st on the 1st. Will these lans be frequent or just the once off?

WiredMan

We're not open yet, still working on the premises. The 1st September will be our first time open, hence the LAN to kick start things.

Yeah we're between West Ireland Cycling and Paddy Powers (accross the road from Clan) - don't let the front decieve ya, it's bigger than you'd think.



We're a community driven social gaming centre, our website is open now if you'd like to get involved.

To sign up for this event you need to register on our website, it's quick and easy. Once registered you can go to "Wired GalwayLAN" on the Events page and book yourself in.

We will have console gaming, but it'll be free as part of our FreePlay Bonus system and not a regular service. What consoles/games we have will be up to the community.


There will be regular LANs (once per month most likely) as well as Tournaments and a continous League.

The League will allow Teams to be created/managed online. These Teams can then Challenge each other to gain positions on the League table.
Each Team will basically be a mini-clan, each having it's own profile with it's avatar, description, members list, upcoming matches, past matches etc.

The top Teams each week recieve rewards such as FreePlay Points (which can be used for time, discounts and other things). There will also be a larger prize for the Team who has stayed at the top of the League for the longest period each month.

Each Team will be able to send invites to members and members will be able to sent join requests to Teams.

For more details on the League system and to get in on the discussion (it's not yet finalised), check out the website.

hey one more question! will there be a smoking area?!

if lans go on into the night surely ye will close the front door, where will i get my nicotene fix then!!

WiredMan

Nope, no designated smoking area. There is a back door leading out to the old well beside the canal though.

Also each Member will be given a Wired Gaming Card (this is used to top up, log in/out, use FreePlay Points etc.). If I get the time I'm hoping to tie this into our magnetic door lock, so when we're doing lock-ins or late nights Members will be able to swipe in.
