Peripheral Swaps
Where to borrow a mouse/keyboard, ownership marking.
Left your mouse at home? Keyboard died? There is a solution.
Borrowing
- Ask around: The LAN community is helpful. Your neighbor might have a spare mouse in their bag.
- Organizer Desk: We have a “Lost & Found” box that sometimes contains unclaimed (or donated) cables and peripherals. Ask us.
- Discord: Post in
#generalor#support: “Looking to borrow an HDMI cable for 2 hours.”
The Rules
- Return it. If you borrow something, bring it back immediately when you are done.
- Take care of it. Do not rage-smash a borrowed keyboard.
- Say thanks. An energy drink or chocolate bar is the standard exchange rate for a life-saving cable.
Mark your gear
There will be 100 black cables and 50 identical mice on the tables.
- Tape / Sticker: Put a small piece of colored tape on the end of your cable and the bottom of your mouse.
- Name: Write your name with a marker (if you don’t mind), or on the tape.
- Photo: Take a picture of your setup before you start packing on Sunday. This way you know what was yours.
If you find something that isn’t yours, bring it to the Organizer Desk.
