\"HFFL<\/a><\/p>\n

Alrighty folks, now that I’ve put the downpayment on the LAN services (Consoles, Screens, etc), and have had the fundraiser going for a bit, I’ve now got a price per attendee.<\/p>\n

Now, before I state the price, I’ll let you know that this can come DOWN<\/strong><\/span><\/span> if we get more people to donate to the fundraiser. So the cost stated is the most it will be. Okay, that out of the way, the cost per attendee is $35.<\/p>\n

That will cover the 8 hour LAN time, your entry into the FFA tournament, food and beverage for the day. You will also receive a small goody bag. This will include the 2014 Halo Mega Bloks exclusive figure among other things.<\/p>\n

Now to the fundraiser. We’ve stalled at $400. Only $200 of that is going to the LAN. So that means $550 needs to be covered. Last year we had 15 paying attendees (and a few extras that didn’t game, but still attended). The $35 cost was based off that number. $35 X 15 attendees = $525. The left over $25 would be my cost, so no worries there.<\/span><\/p>\n

If we get more donations for the fundraiser, more will be applied to both the LAN and the Charity (Autism Society of Pittsburgh<\/a>). Again, that also means cost per person can come down. Should we have more than 15 paying attendees, the cost will go down accordingly.<\/p>\n

I’ve said it before, but to be sure, I’m not looking to make any money from this. As you can see from the numbers above, with the LAN costing $750, I’ll be covering all expenses for food and drink (no alcohol, that’s bring your own and ONLY if your 21 and above – IDs will be checked).<\/p>\n

So here’s where I once again ask that everyone get the word out about the fundraiser. If you are attending, get your Halo friends to come to, so your cost will come down.<\/p>\n

Anyone that’s local, if you want to bring your XBOX 360\/controllers\/screen, that’s definitely permissible, in fact it would work out better. If you do bring your own set-up, your cost will be reduced by $15 from the final price (should it change from the $35 as stated above).<\/span><\/p>\n

This information will also be updated into the main LAN page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
