What to Bring (and What Not To)

A quick checklist for a smooth setup.

Pack for the setup you actually want to play on. Missing one cable can waste half your Friday.

Bring

  • Your gaming PC (desktop or laptop)
  • Power cable / charger for everything
  • Monitor (if you’re bringing a desktop) + the right video cable (DP/HDMI)
  • A power strip (you’ll have limited wall outlets)
  • Mouse, keyboard, mousepad
  • A headset (speakers are not allowed)
  • Ethernet adapter if your laptop has no LAN port (USB-C/USB-A)
  • Any small extras you rely on (controller, DAC, spare batteries)

You don’t need to bring an Ethernet cable - we provide those.

Don’t bring

  • Speakers
  • UPS units
  • Your own switches/routers/access points
  • High-draw appliances (kettle, heater, toaster, mini-fridge)

If you’re unsure, see What Not to Plug In.

Survival Kit

It’s not just your PC that needs to survive; you do too.

  • Sleeping Gear: Sleeping bag, camping mat, pillow. (Expect gym-floor conditions.)
  • Hygiene Kit: Toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, towel, shower gel.
  • Earplugs: Mandatory if you want to sleep. The hum of 100 PCs is not a lullaby.
  • Comfortable Clothes: Layered clothing is recommended.

Getting your PC there

If transport is a problem, ask in Discord ahead of time - someone usually has room in a car.

Seating

Seating is first come, first served. If you have special needs (e.g. you need a specific chair), let us know before the event.
