First ever TXG Console Day
If you've been around then you've heard us talking about the upcoming "Console Day" March 6th we will be hosting a laid back action packed event where all you have to do is sit down, put a controller in your hands, and frag out. *Unless you desire to play the Wii*
We will organize a pizza run from Mama's Pizza and will be hosting several tournaments. So far we have signups open for general attendance, console reservation, and a Mario Kart Wii tournament. All signups can be found in their usual location on: lan.thetexangamer.com.
We look forward to seeing you all come out for this inaugural event where staff, volunteers, and attendees and kick back and relax while doing what we love, GAMING!

LAN Parties!
So just a quick update so everyone knows how to get their game on.
Tomorrow absolutely nothing is going on. Let's all get online and play some games from home!
This month also marks the last monthly HyperLAN in Ft Worth on January 23rd from 1pm to 3am. We are celebrating the wonderful holiday of Wintereenmas by throwing an all out bash. MyModernWarefare.com will be on site to host a couple console tournaments, and we are currently polling the community for what we should host as our PC Tournament. We will play what our attendees demand! After this month, HyperLAN will be moving to a once every other month schedule.
That brings us to our next announcement. Since we will have some free time with HyperLAN no longer running monthly, we are going to mix things up and offer an event pioneered by the UTA student group Gamers on Campus - Console Day. During the months where there is no HyperLAN and starting in February, we will be opening the doors for a day of console packed fun of all sorts. We invite everyone to bring as many consoles as they want, from any generation. I look forward to some awesome mario kart/golden eye action as well as some Modern Warfare, Halo, and old school Mortal Kombat. More details on this awesome event will be brought out after the next HyperLAN.
To register for HyperLAN 5 - Wintereenmas Special, simply go to:
lan.thetexangamer.com to signup, reserve your seat, and vote on the tournament!
Merry Wintereenmas!
Happy Holidays from everyone at The Texan Gamer. We hope you had good holiday and got lots of cool swag from Santa. We've got a thread going on over here in the forums to post up what everyone got, head on over and post up!
New Years is fast approaching and we hope everyone has a fun and safe evening of partying and/or fragging it up. I know I'll be doing a little of both. If you know of a good public gig going on head over to the forums to post about it.
Speaking of partying and fragging, we'd like to take this time to officially announce registration for our Wintereenmas LAN on January 23rd from 1pm to 3am in Ft Worth. We are aiming for a max capacity LAN and will be running tournaments based on YOUR input. When you register for the LAN, please vote on the poll to the left if there is a game you would like to compete in a structured tournament with. We're hoping to have power upgrades in place that will allow us to offer a 72 seat capacity, but that might be reduced, so keep your eye out for any changes.
To register for the January LAN please visit our LAN page and follow the links. We'd love to have everyone come out and show off their new xmas gifts!

What do you want to hear??
As you as all know Buggles will be casting LIVE from the LAN this Saturday and as the preparations for the show begin (without her PC in her possession mind you) she wants to grab your opinions as to what you wish to hear. So as of right now this will be the place to put your wants for what you want to hear that day whether you are going to be there or not.
Keep in mind that she may not have everything you want to hear so be sure to make a nice size list for her. Please keep the chatter in this thread to a minimum as this is ONLY meant for your music requests.
