Title: NeXus LAN 14 non-electronic tournament....
Post by: Renegade on July 31, 2014, 12:51:20 AM
It has been suggested that we bring back a non-electronic type of event at NL 14.  Something non-PC related to get people out of their seats and engaged face to face?

With that being said we are going to have the Junior staff (Maddog, KatLuvsKupkakes, Crazydino) run an event of this type.

So we need suggestions.

Suggestions so far...

Rock-Paper-Scissors
mouse toss
PC speed build
bawls chugging (Too many possible issues)
duct-tape building
lego sculpture
Magic the Gathering
Texas Holdem

I'm no doctor, but I can see medical issues occurring with the Bawls chug.

If we have the space, capture the flag or Laser Tag (equipment rental needed)  could work well.

LED Poi(rave type) spin off.  XD

*NOT WITH FIRE POI OBVIOUSLY THOUGH!  lol

P.S.  I have 2 sets of LED poi I can share..
One's rechargeable, and one takes AAA batteries(which are always much appreciated), if you want to spin them.

I think corn hole sounds great too. I have boards and bags I can bring as well

Chalk up another vote for Cornhole. I also have a set of boards to bring if necessary.

Also swordfighting with PVC pipe wrapped in pool noodle foam is a lot of fun, but I can see how that might present safety issues.

We will be having a Magic the Gathering Standard tournament for sure run by our sponsor The Game Haven.

We are also going to look into Cornhole as well but it will probably run at the same time as one of the PC tournaments but not sure.  Have to look at timing.
