Cornucopia-01

Gamers mistake BYOC for Bring Your Own Cornucopia. Attend wrong festival. Have time of their lives.

/ / , , , /

When Aaron, Becky, Jared and Lucy loaded up their Volkswagon bus with their gaming gear and headed out for QuakeCon, they thought they would have the week of their lives.

Boy were they right, just not at the place they thought they were going.

“We saw a sign when we crossed the Oklahoma border that said ‘Cornucopia Festival,'” said Becky. “That’s when got into an argument about what ‘BYOC’ stood for.” 

“We finally decided it stood for cornucopia,” said Aaron, “which is strange since we had a car full of computers with us!”

“This may sound corny,” said Aaron, “but I’ve really made some lifelong friends here.”

Build-Your-Own LAN Gaming Shelf

You asked for it and now you’re getting it! Well… you didn’t really ask for it but you’re getting it anyway.

These instructions are for a 30” wide LAN gaming shelf to fit half of a 5’ table and larger.

Dreamhack uses 5’ tables and quakecon uses 6’ tables.

If you want to make one for a 6’ table, just change 30 to 36 in all the wood cuts. But don’t do that. Just make the 30” version so it works for both table sizes.

We built a couple and they turned out pretty well! They still need to be fancied up, though. You can view those photos below as well.

Summer has come and passed
And QuakeCon can never last
Wake me up when September LANs

As my rocket launcher blasts
How the years have gone so fast
Wake me up when September LANs

Playing Quake Champions
Fragging to the stars
Golfing with Friends again
Becoming who we are

As my graphics card rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September LANs
————————
Summer has come and passed
And QuakeCon can never last
Wake me up when September LANs

Fire off the shells again
Like we did when spring began
Wake me up when September LANs

Playing DOOM 2 on LAN
Demons we will char
Rocket League as a clan
Becoming who we are

As my graphics card rests
But never forgets what I lost
Wake me up when September LANs
—————————–
Summer has come and passed
And QuakeCon can never last
Wake me up when September LANs

As my rocket launcher blasts
How the years have gone so fast
Wake me up when September LANs
Wake me up when September LANs
Wake me up when September LANs

A stroll through the BYOC will reveal the spectacle that is case modding at QuakeCon. Modders Inc. Many enter the US Case Modding Championship at QuakeCon, run by Modders Inc.

“Every year I am truly impressed and amazed with the caliber of mods that are entered and every year,” said Tom Brokaw of Modders Inc.  “The mods keep getting better and better.”

Brokaw continues, “the level of competition this year was really intense. There were so many fantastic mods in all the categories. Judging this was not an easy task and in some cases, a single point separated the top contenders in their respective categories. These competitors keep upping their game a notch every year and we love it!”
