Last night after swim practice I went over to Andrew's house where him, Brett, Daniel, Tanner, John, and Maikel were having a LAN party of epic proportions.
For those of you unfamiliar with the term "LAN Party" it means that a bunch of nerds and/or losers with nothing to do on a friday/saturday get together, wire up a crude network, play multiplayer games, swap files, stay up all night, and ingest large quantities of caffine laced liquid. LAN stands for Land or Local Area Network and just describes the fact that you are all in one room for a period of 20 hours playing computer games.
The hit of the party was a game called Flatout. This is a racing game in which you get Nitrous Oxide for making the physics engine work (hitting things). There were some pretty spectacular crashes.
F.E.A.R. (a fps or first person shooter) took up Brett and Daniel's time for a bit. Also a big battle was waged in Age of Empires III (rts or real time strategy).
There were also a few movies watched from my ginormous stash of pirated material. At one point my network utilization was at 100% as my computer frantically tried to keep up with the damand for my movies.
