So come on, register and reserve your spot today! Spots are saved on a first paid, first served basis. Here's your chance to meet some fellow gamers, make new friends, and frag them over and over again while gunning for a chance to bring home some neat prizes.

Thank you

Nov 02, 2005
Thanks to all the participants of the first NeoLan! We enjoyed meeting many new people, and getting to know some of the local gamers. Things didn't all work out smoothly, especially our nigh unuseable net access, but these are all things that we've talked to many of you about and are on our top priority as things to improve for the next event.

Special thanks to all those who helped out during the Lan, especially those who helped other participants or worked with Tom and Geordan to get various things going.

If you are looking for pics I've posted a quick Gallery of NeoLan 2005 right here.

So thanks again, and hope to see many of you again next time!

A special thanks to all our sponsors including NCIX, D-Link, Gigabyte, ECS, Thermaltake, and Arctic Cooling (who came in at the last minute with 15 video card coolers for our door prizes).


Also, congratulations are in order for our tournament winners. Congrats and enjoy the prizes!

Full System CPU

Oct 25, 2005
As you might already know, one of the prizes at NeoLan will be a full PC system. NCIX is still working on the details but we now know that the system will come with an Intel Pentium 840D. So if you've wanted some dual core lovin' this is your chance to get in on some of that action. This is a 3.2Ghz, $800 (CAD) part so I don't think you want to miss out on the full system!

Remember, this will be a door prize given to a random participant at NeoLan, so ANYONE has a chance to win.



Come in Costume for a chance to Win

More Exciting News.

To encourage some Halloween spirit, NeoLan participants who come in costume will have a chance to win an awesome OCZ Modstream 520W PSU.
