Before we list stuff you need to bring, we need to say that you are responsible for anything you bring. If something is damaged, lost, or stolen, neither the Linux Users' Group or the school is liable and will not under any circumstances replace your item(s). Ok, with that painful bit out of the way, in the many years of WSUCon we have never ever had a report of anyone having anything stolen, and the worst things lost or forgotten are ethernet cables. So, this is just a heads up but it is honestly not something to worry about too much, as our community cares.
PC Gamers
If you intend to play any PC games, in the tournaments or not, you will need to bring a computer capable of playing the games you want to participate in. This means everything, and read carefully!
If your gaming rig is a tower:
- Tower
- Monitor
- Keyboard
- Mouse
- Power Strip (aka, surge protector)
- Power Cables (desktop & monitor)
- Headphones
or if you're rolling with a good laptop:
Laptop
Power adapter
Mouse (unless you are a touchpad king)
Headphones
Cooling pad (if you have/need one)
We hope you all have fun and can't wait to see you there!
Console Gamers
Sure! Feel free to bring your console(s) and a monitor for it. This is similar to the "What To Bring."
What we've done in the past is an ad-hoc setup. Some of the admins have brought consoles before. Otherwise you would want to bring your own console, monitor, games, controllers, and if we have a spare maybe you could hook that up to a projector.
