It's that time of year again for Quakecon!  Quakecon is one of the largest FREE LANparties in all of USA and probably the world for that matter.  Quakecon is an annual event hosted by the people who make Quake (id software) and a bunch of volunteers.  They do play more than just id software games in the BYOC, but the official tournaments are usually only for id software games.  Anyway it's a pilgrimage that any gamer should make at least once in their life and it is a ton of fun.  This year is an early year as the Quakecon event is being held from July 31st- August 3rd.  As I said the event is free, and if you plan on bringing your PC for the BYOC then early registration starts at 9pm ET April 30th.  They will fill up all BYOC spots, but spots usualy open up as few gamers can play throughout the entire event, and some even fail to show.  Head on over to the quakecon website if your interested and would like more information.
