Well Ground.Zero totally rocked and we're all recovered and looking forward to the next awesome event.

Whilst network or power issues were expected, it turned out that software issues were our problem of choice. The server gave up on us so we were forced to play ad-hoc games using our own machines as the game hosts. In spite of this however, fun was had by all, even the pro Street Fighter 4 guys who happily pwnd everyone in the tournament and won some sweet prizes along the way. The rest of us read our CPU Magazines while we waited our turn, like calm lambs to the slaughter.

A big thank you to all our sponsors and Maddy's Pizza for the awesome pepperoni infusion we needed late night !

Special thank to:

Join us for chances to win prizes and get heads up on LAN event goodies!

Its almost LAN time and we're all ready to have a big ol' game fest at the Mexico Rec Center on Saturday and Sunday.

We'll be taking our machines too. We plan to frag excessively and drink Bawlz.

We have a huge array of prizes from gift cards to LLBean, Longhorn and others, to USB memory sticks and bluetooth headsets.

A quick reminder to anyone wanting to play or visit: if you plan to bring a computer or console, please remember to bring a network cable (Cat5 or better with RJ45 connectors) along with any required power and AV cables. We have a very limited supply of spare network cables so please remember these (as big as possible). If you're not sure if you have one, If you have a broadband internet connection, there's a good chance theres one connected to your cable modem or DSL modem.

If you know you wont have a network cable please contact us in advance either by using our Contact Page or email Support.

We will be accepting payments on the door, cash and checks only please. We can only accept card payments online.

Dyer's Electronics (also RadioShack) of Mexico, Maine have sponsored a prize for the Ground.Zero Event to be held in the Municipal Recreation Center in Mexico (the old mexico high school). Thank you to Dyer's! Ground.Zero is shaping up to be a fantastic event even before its started. With prizes-a-plenty and games galore, its all full of win.

We have more support today from the lovely people at Longhorn Steakhouse who have graciously provided a $25 gift card as a prize for our event. The AT&T store in Auburn have also provided us with a nice Universal Plantronics Bluetooth headset for celphones and more, a value of $40! Thank you both!

More swag up for grabs! Sweet..

Just a quick note to let you know our facebook is even easier to find!

See you there!

Given the popularity of the newly released Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 game, we felt it important to let you all know that the game will indeed be making a showing at our event on December 5th.

So bring your console and show us what you're made of!

If you havent secured your place at Maines best gaming event, head over to the signup page and signup now!

Its confirmed that our event will be powered by none other than network hardware gods Extreme Networks! Seriously these guys are the ferrari of the network arena used by ISPs and Datacenters and other big dogs. Our Summit switch will be here by Thursday at which time we will spend a few hours drooling over its royal purpleness, then I guess we'll have to set 'er up.
